(Special to the Guardian)
LONON, Oct. 11.-Le Cateau has
'been occupied by the British army. lt
is a historic spot. British troops suf-
fered heavy losses but won great
ihonor there. A lttle over four years
ago Le Cateau, Vs-udny and the line
on the Selle river, reached yesterday
by I-l‘al<Vg’s swiftly advancing troops,
saw fierce fighting when Von Kluck’s
army sought to cut off and destroy
Smith Dorien’s Army Corps on Aug-
ust 26th, 1914 during the retreat
from Mons. There was fighting again,
about Caudry yesterday both northl
and south of the town but -the enemy
made only a short stand and retired
rapidy, pursued by British cavalry.
Many French civilians have been
found in the towns and villages
through which the Allied troops have
passed, in Caudry alone 2,500 were
liberated after four years of bondage
to -their German taskmasters. The
lust they had seen oi’ the Allied arm-
ies until yesterday was during the
Britiish defense of Catudry four years
ago. -
The British advance Sir Doug
las Haig states, is a rapid
one along the whole battle-
front. At Solesmes, on the northern
end of the line l'iaig's troops are elev-
en miles due east-of iCa_mbrai. At
Le -Cateau the a/dvance guards are
fifteen miles southeast of Cambrai
and are nearing the forest of' Mortal
a great area of woodland -fully forty
miles in extent which occupies a large
part of -the groun dhetween Le Cut-
eau and Maubeuge.
The next town on the way from Le
Cnteau to Maubeuge is Landracies,
which also figured in the story 'of the
retreat from Mons.
Landrecies, about six miles east oi'
Le Cateau, is the objectve of the

ing before His Honour Judge Stewart

infraction oi! the law 'at Stanley
Bridge. The information was laid be-
ioro the Cork of the County Court at

issued by the same clerk summoning
i-Lie Defendant to appear before the
Court at another circuit, namely the
fourth circuit at New Glasgow.
.Mr. George S. ilnman, K. C.. for
tho defendant, riised three objections
ti tho jurisdiction of the Judge to try
the case. _
(1.) That the Clerk of the 'Court
at Cha.rlo.ttetown had tio jurisdiction
or authority to issue a summons for
thc New Glasgow Court. '
(LL) That the dfendant was not duly
summoned inasmuch as he was sum-
moned to appear before tho County
Court, and that the County Court as
such as has no purisdiction to try
Proliibition cases.
(3.)’I`hat the Judge of the County
Court had no jurisdiction to try the
case inasmuch ns the defendant was
not summoned to appear before the
said Judgo but before the County
Court.
At the conclusion of argument
Judge Stewart upheld defendants ob-
jection and dismissed the case.
