I.ONDON, Oct, 16. Confirmation has been made of the statement that Arthur Asqulth, third eon of the Prime Minister, was in tho trenches outsldo Antwerp during the nt tack. Young Asqulth recently enrolled with the Royal Naval Reserve, which was engaged In the defense of Antwerp. It Is clear he Is a very popular officer. In an Interview Stoker Lawrence, R. X. It., who has Just returned from the Ant werp trenches, said that one of the best liked and hardest workers of their officers was the Prlmo Minister's son. "Lieutenant Asqulth's first thought." ho added, "is for the comfort and feed ing of the men. He roughs It with the boys, who think the world of him. He takes his food with them and has the Fame as the others. The last time I saw him he was' drinking his tea from a corned beef can." By J, W. IV MASON NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-Dcstructlon of the British light cruiser Hawko by a Ger man submarine represents exclusively a gain In morale for Germany. From the point of vlow of sea power the loss of the vessel Is without Importance. Tho Hawke' had no offensive strength, under modern naval condition, being 25 ycais old and dtstlncd for quick retirement. Nevertheless, tHc success of the Ucrm.iu submarines have a value quite apart from the actual losses suffered by tile rival cots. Tho German navy has never had an opportunity to demonstrate Its ill ness, and the skill add Initiative of Its officers under hostile conditions have been unknown quantities to themselves as well ns to tho rest of tho world. The victo ries won under tho sea will glVo a conlt denco to the German sailors that un doubtedly will stir them to si eater effort. In this fact lies the possibility for an ultimate sweeping vlctoty for Great Britain. A few more minor victims fallen to submarine nttacks may rouso the German naval commanders to such a pitch of enthusiasm us to cause a des perate attempt to drive the English from the seas. The German battle fleet may venture forth and risk 11 surface en gagement with the greatly aupcrlor Brit ish squadrons. Such a conflict, If (-formally were successful, would win the war for her. The chances against a German victory aie much more than the two to one su periority of the British warships. One heavyweight prize fighter attacked by two otnors, when all are In first-class con dition, has far less than ono chance In three of winning. At the same time a possibility of suc cess docs exist. This possibility undoubt edly Is increased In Imagination among German sailors by tho submarine suc cesses. If the German warships come out from their harbors of safety and attempt to destroy the British navy, perhaps the chief factorln the decision will be the psychological effect of the submarine raids. Five British warships which have been sunk by ubmnlnes were cruisers not of first lino strength. Tho chief aim of the German naval strategists Is to work destruction among these first lino units. How effective the submarines will be come In an open fight, only time can tell. -British submarines greatly, outnumber the German and unprecedented exploits may result. AUSTRO-GERMAN LOSSES EXCEED MILLION MARK British Correspondent Gives Alleged Berlin Estimate of 1,350,000. LONDON, Oct. 16. A Dally Chronicle correspondent In Hol land, who has lately been In Berlin, sends the following: "The authorities in Berlin estimate their total losses in France and Belgium up to date at more than 700,000 men. This does not Include their losses on the eastern frontier, which they estimate at over 1B0.W0. "They also acknowledge that the Aus trian losses exceed 600,000. Official reports which have been published only concern a portion of the Prussian losses In France. No official lists have been published re gardlng losses of troops from Bavaria, Wurttemberg, Saxcny or Hanover. "From this it is evident that the Austro German losses approximate 1,330,000. This figure covers killed, wounded and missing and, of course. Includes all prlST cners." By AN ARMY EXPERT NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-There Is no great er mystery In this war than the failure of tho French General Staff to furnish adequate forces on the northern frontier to resist the first advance of the Ger man army In August, and this failure again to protect the Channel ports. There Is no mystery about tho German army. Even Its disposition is seml-ofll-dally announced. There are 21 nrmy corps in France, six in Belgium and 13 on tho Russian frontier. In addition, there are a million and a half Territorials doing garrison duty, and 500,000 recruits belnB trained. Opposed to the 21 German army corps that are now In Belgium, 30 In all, ap proximately 1,200,000 men, there Is tho Ung ues army of 300,000, tho remnant left of the Belgian army, possibly SO.OOO effec tives, and the entire French army. France was supposed to have 3,000,000 regular soldiers nnd reserves when mobi lization wns complete. Where are they? Very few were ever sent to Belgium or across the German frontier Into Alsace. Yet with Germany's 1,200,000 men, and a battle line from the Swiss border, north, to Verdun fortress, west of Roye, and north to Antwerp a battle line! with Its undulations, 320 miles long Germany Is always able, apparently, to detach suffi cient icserves from one part of the line to resist special pressure by tho Allies' army anywhere, nnd U la also able 'to send 200,000 lrlen north to take Antwerp. Now Germany is moving on tho Chan nel ports. Thcro are only five main linos of railway running north from the French fiontler through Belgium. Ger many Is already In possession of four of them and Is Using them to bring ammu nition nnd other supplies to her troop. In the past three days sho has taken an other great Junction point at Lille. Us tend, on the English Channel, only TO miles from the English coast, has bom abandoned to her by the Allies without a battle. Yet Ostend was used ns ono of the ports of debarkation for tho Brit ish army, nnd It Is a highly Important lino of communication for British sup plies And reinforcements. j The situation would be understandable If a largo part of the allied armies had been dlvcitcd rlf-cwhore In order to pierce tho German line at some other vital point, but there has been no general of fensive movement at any point of the al lied armies In thojpast week. There have UCCll sporauic nuncKB nerc aim mere, and some small gains made hero and thcro, but no towh taken nnd no vital advan tage obtained. Thoroughness, efficiency, preparedness were expected of the German army as well ns grcnt generalship. On the other sldo the English, In the first onslaughts, vindicated the high reputation the British nrmy has for steadiness under fire, and Indomitable pluck. The French artillery, In the guns of smaller calibre, has ful filled the highest expectations of tho nation, and the French foot soldiers havo shown great dash nnd brilliancy as well as that trait common to nearly all armies bravery. Tho London Times mllltnry critic re fused to credit tho early report that Ger many had sent five nrmy corps, 200,000 men, from France to Russia. It would bo fatal, he Bald. And'lt was not "fatal." Germany has done this, turnlhg tho tide of battle on tho Russian frontier. But she Iibb dono moro than turn back tho great Russian nrmy. She has vlrtu- Lally held her own In Fronce, fighting against the entire French nnd the entire British armies, nnd sho has mado great gains In Belgium. Whore is the French nrmy of 3,000,000 men? The Germans have fewer than 1,500,000 men in France. By E. ASHMEAD-BARTLETT LONDON, Oct. 16. News arrives that tho Allies have occupied Ypres, due north of the line of Baillou ond Estnlres l.a Bassee, which Von Kluk was report ed as holding yesterday. It Is Impos sible to believe that the Germans, marching on Ostend. are near that port. Ostend, from n military standpoint, will be rff small Importance. Its har bor Is hardly suitable for a naval base, nnd the Invaders could be blown out of town by the British fleet. Thero Is no use denying the fact, how ever, that pressure on Berlin from the east is not to be felt for a long time. At the present moment there Is not a single Russlnn soldier on German ter ritory, except those who may havo crossed the frontier of East Prussia. The pursuit of Von Hlndenburg's nrmy along the route to Berlin Is not likely to be seriously attempted fn view of the difficulties of lakes, marshes and fort resses. The main advance must be by way of Posen or Cracow, and before either route can be taken Poland must bo cleared of the enemy and Cracow captured. Also, before the siege of Crncow can bo attempted the armies must be driven from the line of the Vistula. Tho Russians will havo done well to have taken Przemysl and cleared west ern Poland of Germans before winter sets in. They then will quietly invest Cracow and clear the road for tho ad vance on Berlin early next year. This is the very most the Allies can hope.

Au revolr, Pari Clemenceau Praises Calm Confidence of King Albert. BORDEAVX, Oct 16.-011. Georges Clem enceau, the publisher of L'Homme En chalne, was asked recently for some com ment on any points of Interest In the telegrams exchanged by the French and Belgian Governments when the latter wa3 removed from Ostend to Havre. M. Clem enceau said: "The finest sentence In the telegrams, because It Is the most simple and most concrete, Is undoubtedly that used by King Albert, when he said: "We await with unswerving confidence the hour of our common victory.' "Second only to this In Its calm reso lution Is the phrase of M. Mlllorand, the Minister of War: 'We shall conquer, be cause our will rises superior to every obstacle.' "In those sentences lies the whole gos pel of the war." VESSEL SUNK IN SCHELDT NO MENACE TO SHIPPING Germans Clear River by Picking Up Belgian Mines. AMSTERDAM, Oct. 16.

BCZBT, i "rench "'Horsemen Cross River Lys. Clearing Way for Occupation of Estaires by Allies' Infantry. PARIS, Oct. 1G. Infantry nnd cavalry, after a period of comparative Inactivity, hnve been doing more fighting during tho lust fow days than for several weeks. Two thousand French cuirassiers have distinguished themselves by u daring feat In swimming tho River Ls where It Mows deep nnd swift. They completely outwitted the Germans, who were await ing them on the other side with machine guns and henvy artillery. The French horsemen made a long notour during the nl-iht. Ono man swam tho river with a rope, then drugged over a cable, which ho attached to a tree. The others, holding to tho rope, crossed singly with their horses through tho swirling waters. Arrived on tho opposite hank, (lie French drew up In line and charged tho German Hank at Mocrvllle, driving tho Germans back ami opening tho wny for tho passage over the river of a division of allied Infantry, who later occupied L'staircs. Many of the advanced German trenches appear to have been obnndoned and the Allies were able to make much headway, where previously they had met with furious resistance. The Ideu prevails that the Germans are preparing to letlre nt tho centre nnd concentrate their energies further north, where, It Is supposed, they Intend to make another attempt to break the Allies' lines. DEEDS OF DARING, PATHOS AND HUMOR OF THE WAR 5 YEARS FOB DISOBEDIENCE French Soldier Court Mnrtinled for Refusing to Wash Feet. PARIS, Oct. lO.-Louls Dtithci'ln, a French soldier, 2.1 yearn old, belonging to the Territorial Infnntry, was yesterday sentenced by a court martial to llw years' labor on public works for having refused to obey the command of his lieu tenant to wash his feet in n stream, when nil tho others of his company did so, after a march on an August day. A clever trick, following closely the lines of Unit played by Volgt, the famous rogue of Kf-epenlck, has ben played upon n Sheffield hostel nnd n number of Lord Kitchener's recruit nt Sheffield, nnd has set all Yorkshire laughing. Representing himself as the deputy of Councillor , over tho telephone, n person asked a military officer at the barracks If he would care to billet 300 recruits nt Councillor '3 nowly erected hostel for working men. The ofTer was accepted. Shortly nfterwnrds the man ager of the hostel was ordeied over the telephone by "hl Majesty's transport of ficer Ridley" to mnko instant prcpniallon to receive the recruits and provide them Willi a meat ten. Transport Officer Ridley tUlckly fol lowed nnd assumed complete lontiol of tho hostel. "I may ns well put up here and sco the thing thiouSh," he said. The recruits duly nrrlxed, find Transput t Of ficer Ridley appointed a special staff to attend him. Ono recruit he deputed to shave him, a second to clean his boots, nnd n third to wash him. To socurp quiet nt night he posted up a notice that "there must be absolute silence while your trans port ulllcer Is asleep." He also exacted implicit obedience and posted 11 second notice: "This Is a mllltniv Institution and the men nio tinder the nuthorlty of Mr. Ridley, transport officer. If he culls upon ittiy man to perform any action he is bound to do so. else he will be guilty of a iilmo ngulnst nillltniy law. for which he' will be punished by the military au thorities."

He said: "It would bo possible to transport aub nmilnes by rail from Germany to tha Belgian and French coasts onco tho rail road lines weto secured; but nfter reach ing the coast, then would come a problem of escaping British war vessels or mliia fields."
