PARIS. Oct. 8.-The British indian .

Army is rapidly becoming accllniatoil, French generals who have lnspectedl their artillery, infantry and engineers. and ambulance and auxiliary corps,I describe the army as splendidly I equipped. People of French cities f where the men are quartered, are fav- orably imprqssed with the sglenm courtesy of the Orlcntals. They never enter cafes or accept hospitalitics. All I the 111811. except Gllurkas, are greatI lu stature. There is scarcely a nmn

under G feet high. while some are giants. More than half the lndlnn army are white troops who are re. garded us the flower of thc British A1`111Y- '1‘rallsport. and artillery sup- ply wagons were brought with the I1`00DS from india und herds ol' goats I0 SUDDIY fresh milk are pastured in the real- ot the camps, but the prlil- cipal sustenance ot' the native indian soldiers is wheat cakes which they ihenlsclvcs bake.

PARIS, Oct. 8.-(Ofilcial)-The sit-

uation remains stationary. Fierce lighting is taking place in the region Roye.

LONDON, Oct. 8.-The Germans

have started in earnest to bombard Antwerp, after warning all non- combatants to evacuate the territory.

Big siege guns have been brought

up alid already a vast amount of damage has been done. The Belgian soldiers under the personal leadership of King Albert have manned the forts and are putting up u stubborn resist- ance.

On the Aisne the Allies have made

some slight gains, but therc is yct nothing decisive as a result of the action on the wings of the contending armies. On the centre, between ltheims and the Mensa, the armies are resting on their arms awaiting their turn to take the offensive. But on the heights of the Meusc, between the fortress of Verdun and St Mfhiel, where the Germans crossed the Mouse a couple of weeks ago, the contest still goes on. The Germans have wltli- drawn to the north of Hattenchatel. They still, however, hold St Mihiel and some positions to the north of` flint town on the right bank of the river.

lil Woevre district the Germans,

without success, have delivered violent attacks against the French. The Germans at St Millie] are considered to be in rather a dangerous position.

Tile other big battle line between

combined Austro-German armies und the legions of Russia, extends from the Galician frontier near Tarnow right north to the East Prussian border. Another Russian force is besieging Przcmysl ill Galicia, still another invading lflungary.

On tile East Prllssian frontier iight-

ing appears to have come to rt stand- still for the present. Tho' Russians have driven the Germans back after an advance to Niemell River.

Fighting on a larger scale will soon

be resumed. it will then be decided whether the Germans are to reinvade Russia in this region or the Russians are again to overrun Prussia.

DROPPING BOMBS IN ANTWERP.

AMSTERDAM, Oct. 8.-During

Wednesday night no fewer than six Zeppelius flew over Antwerp, drop- ping bombs in all directions. The ox- tcnt of the damage is not known, but one of the bombs damaged the Palace

GERMANS D0 NOT

LIKE OWN MEDICINE.

BERLIN, Oct. 8.-(By wireless lo

Suyville)-Tile iirittsh announcement, concerning the laying of mines on the southerly part of the North Sea was publislled in Berlin yesterday morning. Commenting on this, it was pointed out here that it virtually closes the channel to neutrality, and that this belt of nlines stretching between Ramsgatc and Ostcnd constitutes an effective. although unofficial blockade of the ports of Holland. The prospects of navigation, when the storms oi' winter tears the mines loose from their anchorage, are not pleasant.

The German Admiralty has reiter-

nled its declaration that German mines have been laid only along the coast of Great Britain. .

TWENTY THOUSAND GERMANS LOST.

LONDON, Oct. 8.-“A grave vle\v` S

of the situation is taken by the

authorities,” wires the Antwerp cor- It respondent of the Daily News. l

“ The great guns have told the tale." \ “ The fighting around Antwerp has S een a battle of Krupps against men. I Every day and night the lighting has 0

continued with deadly effect against the forts, while the shrapnei and shell, have made many ol' the trenches un- tcnahle.

As fast as the Belglans were coni-

pelled to withdraw from a position, Germans have moved up and occupied it. The Belgians frequently fougllt bravely and stubbornly with infantry and frequently they repulsed thc Ger- mans, but these rcpulses always meant a renewal of the artillery attacks by the Germans, with the eventual retirement of the Belgians.

“ ln their present position, the Ger-

guns, are able to reach the city."

The correspondent of the Ciironicle

akes a contrary view. Ile says: “ There is an air of quiet confidence

that the Germans will never capture the city. Numbers of the forts are still holding out with great slublmin-

LORD KiTCHENER'S STATEMENT.

The London Tinlcs says: _ ill tho House of Lords last week

Lord Kitchener stated that there were then ill the field rather more than six divisions ol’ British troops and two' cavalry divisions. To augment tile, Expeditionary Force further regular divisions and additional cavalry were

being organized from units withdrawn I from ovcrsea garrisons, whose place, , where necessary. would be taken by Territorial troops. Certain dlvlsionsj of the indian Army were then on their > way and several divisions would be available from the Dominions. The

most remarkable demonstration of the energy and patriotism of the young

men of this country.

Summing up the position, Lord Kit- t

cllcner estimated that by the spring we shall have ready to take the field armies which will be well trained and will prove themselves formidable op-

ponents to thc enemy. .

“ Those flags indicate that the build-

ings serve no military end. it is stated the Germans have promised to pare as much as possible the buildings not devoted to military purposes.

“ All the lights in the town are

oxtinguished at dusk and the shops close at six in the evening.

"li, is rumoured that the Emperor

William has offered the Iron Cross decoration and 85,000 marks to the first man entering Antwerp.

" For twenty-fours hours the (ll-i-~

mans have made scarcely ally allvaln-o. They bombarded the village of Lllilh fiercely, but the Belgians held thc place until it was in flanics before they evacuated it.

“Near Ternionde the Germans ure

still lighting desperately to cross the ltivcr Sclleldt. 'l`he latest confirms that they have not yet succeeded.

" The Germans are pressing forward

on the east. They crossed the River Nethe on the cast and are only hclrl at bay by tho desperate efforts of thc Belgians.

“This offensive movement is said o have cost the Germans 20,000 mon. “On the south in the region of

(iontich and Boom und \\'ilcbrot'k the

has inlllldutcti our land durizllg the past decade.
