SUIAIARY 0F TIIE SITUATION
is estimated these war taxes will
realize an additional revenue of about
$7,000,000 during the remainder of
the present fiscal year.
The Belgians, as arranged, with?
drew from Brussels and took up their
headquarters in Antwerp, prepara-
tory to the great battle between the
Allies and t.lie Germans. Tho Allies
in great force, with the iirltish in the
center of the Frencli on each flank
are advancing in a line 100 miles long
against the Germans.
Germany is indignant at the ad-
vent of Japan in the war, and the
Berlin press say, when the war is
finished “Germany shall call Japan
to account." But by that time there
will be no Germany to have a say
ln the matter. Meantlnie Japan is
quietly preparing for eventualitieu
following the expiration of her ulti--
niatum on Sunday next.
Italy has sent a protest to Vienna
against Austria landing troops ami
inarines at San Giovanni de Medua.
The gallant defenders of Liege are
enduring terrific hardships and are
showing valiant courage. They have
been subjected daily to fearful deton-
ations and aio now quite deaf from
the effects.
Austrians are using explosive bul-
ietri contrary to the Law of Nations.
In an attempt to capture Veladlmir
Volynski in which they were signaliy
defeated by the ltiissiaiis, sizfferliig
great loss, they had explosive bullets
among tlioir aminunition.
'l‘lie Austrians have issued a final
call 'to ariini for all able bodied men
between twenty and foi‘ty~four.
The British and l~`rencli Mediter-
ranean fleet, supported by the Mon-
tenegrin batteries on Mount Lovclien,
bonibarded tho Austrian fortifications
at Cattavo, greatly damaging them.
