CHUROHILL'S TAUNT GETS DEADLY REPLY FROM GERMAN 'RATS' Raiders' Warfare, Stroke for ( Kaiser, May Be Aban doned for Bold Dash Upon I England, Experts Argue. Why has there been no great naval bat tle in the European war? The nnswer reveals the far-sighted itrntegy of the German General Btaff. But the world may not bo kept In sus pense a great while longer. The feeling Is general over Europe that a sea fight of some kind Is certain to come within a ttw weeks. It Is known that the German fleet Is hugging Its native shores and keeping be yond the rango of the enemy's fire within the havens of Kiel Canal, the Baltic and bates at Wllhelmshaven. The Ttustlan fleet I) bottled up In the Dtack and Ualtlo Seas. The French warships are guard ing the vast coast of France and engag ing In minor notions In the Adriatic. The vaunted British navy la patrolling the North Sea and English Channel to ward off any attempted Invasion of British shores. So the vast navies of Europe, to all practical purposes, havo been deadlocked U , watchful watltlng policy. NEW TACTICS. Yesterday's dispatches declared that Admiral von Tlrpltz, commander of the German naval forces, had arrived at Ant werp. This was taken to Indicate that naval operations of some kind were In contemplation. Berlin war ofllolals an nounced a.chango In the German tactics. Coupled, theso developments were Inter preted to mean that the Kaiser was plan ning a new and daring attack on his long-hated foe, Great Britain. Further, It was stated that battleships of the Al lies had concentrated on tho const of Belgium, In tho region around Nleuport, and wero bombarding tho Germans from the sea. Whether or not tho British North Sea patrol had been weakened was not Indicated. A powerful factory In Ed inburgh, on the North Sea, was seized by the British military forces, and the Inti mation was that It wns.to be fortified against a possible Invasion. Should the Kaiser attempt to place foot on British soil It would be the most dar ing movo of nil his bold challenges since he defied substantially the whole of Eu rope In a war of the nations. Tho Battle of Heligoland, early after the outbreak of hostilities, obviously waa a lesson to the sea forces of Germany. A daring sortie cost tho Teutons six bat tleships. Since then no nttempt has been made to engage the British In open sea fight, tho Germans' guarding their own coast and keeping well under the protec tion of powerful forts and within the limits floating mines mnde excursion of the enemy deadly and costly, CHURCHILL'S TAUNT. Winston Spencer Churchill, First Lord of the British Amlralty, taunted the Ger mans on such tnctlcs and dared them Into the open. He said they were like rats In a hole, and If they would not como out and tight the British would pull them cut and mako them fight. But the Ger mans would not bo pulled out. When It suited their good pleasure, little "Iron rats" darted out from their holes and a British battleship went to the bottom, pcslde, the Germans sent little floating explosives down tho currents of the North Ben and more British wnrcraft was wrecked. In addition, German cruisers, tho Nurn berg, Lelpslg and Emden, have wrought havoc with British shipping. The Emden slono has sunk six British merchnnt ships In Bengal Bay, Her work had been like that of the pigmy Alabama In tho Ameri can Civil War. Germany's naval policy, hence, has been to carry on a raider's warfare, strik ing a blow where a blow counted and do ing as much damage as possible with least cost to itself. And tlje German sub marine has proved the now torror of the sea. But what of the new policy. If such has been adopted? Will Germany risk battle with Great Britain, whose naval forces ere vastly superior, In numbers and ton nage, at least? England Is stronger at eta than both Germany and France com bined. - INVASION OF ENGLAND. Suggestion of an Invasion of Great Britain has been scoffed ut throughout the world. With tho powerful Hrltlen warships to guard Its coasts the Island Kingdom has had little War of trespass from Invaders. How could the Kaiser land troops In England? Formidable entrance of the Zeppelin aircraft has wrought changes In the attitude of the British and many military experts throughout Europe. An Invasion of England, whether or not designed by the Kaiser, is not now so generally hooted. It has been demonstrated that Ger many W.13 too wlso to challenge open battle with her superior on the waters. Instead. Germany struck blow after blow under the sea. Zeppelins, It la argued, will fly over water just as easily as over land. Then, why not attack the British navy from tho air, from under the waters and brine up the ordinary battleships somewhat as reinforcements. Experts, do not hesitate to assert that the Kaiser has taken Antwerp as a base, nil is seeking to take Dunkirk, to trans port troops to British soil. Zeppelins, they argue, will be used to ward off the British ships, and the transports will bo guarded by the German battle ships. VNDERSEA AND AIR nAIDB. Why Bhould the Kaiser not attempt to cross the channel and carry the war Into England? Not a foot of German oil Is In the hands of Invading foe. un less possibly certain points of East Prussia, and those ot doubtful strategic) value. Strongholds of gigantic strength guard the empire. Why should not a blow be struck at the base of supplies of the enemy? These questions have led experts to believe that Germany Is In a position to attack 'Great Britain. Increased activity In the building- of Zeppelins also Is taken to Indicate this purposo. The Zeppelins have proved their worth. They have aided In the campaign In France, and the German Government contends that not one of them has been brought down by the fire of the Allies. It la pointed out that the construction of the machine, with Ita many compartments for gas, protects It against bullet puncture, the loss of sev eral of these being of little damage to the flight.

M.-Thls war might well bj called a war of Invisible millions, Apart from occasional bayonet charges and cavalry actions there 1b littlo about It that Is spectacular. As the battles In the four countries progress It Is the shells and bullets from guns and rifles that cannot bo seen that nro spreading tloath and wounds among mo soldiers of the warring nntlons. Miles upon miles' of trenches, miles upon miles of barbed wire, thousands of Invlsiblo Infantrymen, a nover-endlng roar and rattle of Invisible cannon and machine guns-that Is the battlefield of today. The movements of troops nre con ducted under cover of night. Broadly, they nre regulated thus. Each Company puts In three daya In the first line of trenches, throe in tho second line nnd then has three days of rest. No words pass ns tho reliefs nro mnde, one com pany crawling in and another out In deathly silence, with possibly n few handshakes here and there. Sentrlos aro silently posted as the now defenders tcttle to sleep until dawn. But the gunners never sleep, Over the trenches from sunrise to sunrise the shells scream active defiance from one lllic to tho other. As dawn breaks nn almost whispered word of command brings to their knees the recumbent figures on the straw strewn curth. As the commanders, make a search of tho cmmy'B position for signs of life to enable them to get the rnngo tho men briefly and efllclcntly examine their arms, and tlisn wait. The ofllccrs continue their wntch. Suddenly a keen eye detects a move ment In the area known to Include the enemy's trenches. The officer fiulckly t Judges the range nnn the order to "lire by companies" promptly follows. The men rise above the trnnrhes, rattle a volley at tho enemy and disappear even more quickly to nwnit further orders. Meanwhile, tho officers are observing the effect. So it goes all day, volley after volley, ran so after range. Now and then u shell hursts among tho riflemen nnd pnni'i fall back In thnt rest which In destined to rcmnln unbroken. Their bodies He untouched all night, hut their places arc filled hy men from thn reroml line, whr often hnvo to kneel on the bodies of their fallen comrades. Each movement, from the second line to the first, a halnncd by a correspond ing movement from the resting line to the second. Thus the fighting, killing, wounding and filling up the gaps contin ue until nightfall brings n hrlof but often troubled rest. . m w wwW mtm i ., ammmfmsmammkiMm vfiMEtmmmm & ,, m& mmi muw. v KMmsm'.wxBmuKmmmaeisBj. sfirx.'MiHidi.wtitfniiffiW'i i tm rr'r' jf .-Km mj ' jssRMHsHsWTsSsraMH WaSSBKk,iKW''wtKVKKBmUFi aHHk - .yiliMgreiSBeig iHHiPiiMHBiiiliiHfc:"'S!

LONDON, Oct. SO. One ef the greatest Irlah gatherings In the history of London wan held lJt night In Central Halt, Westminster, whero thoiisanda of Irishmen were addressed by T. P. O'Connor, Sir Arthur Cona.ii Doyle nnd Dr. T. J. McNamara. Standing with right hands upralned, the great throng solemnly pledged themselves to fight for Bngland, France and Belgium until the German military system It, destroyed nnd until the Belgian King and people come into their own again. Many thousands wero unable to effect nn entrance to the halt, but they, too, raised their hands and pledged their llvsa and sacred honor to tho allied cause and Joined In a tremendous chorug"tn elnglnff "A Nation Once Again" and "Cod Save the King." The meeting unanimously adopted reso lutions to support John Bedmond In fight ing for the freedom of England, France nnd Belgium, nnd cheered for five min utes when Mr. O'Connor In his speech said: "The old feud, between England nnd Ireland Is forever ended and Ireland Is a nation once ngaln. England has done Justice, and Ireland will ahed tho last drop ot her blood for the preservation of tho British Empire. From this day forth the frontiers of Ireland are tho battle lines of tho allied armies fighting for the freedom of the whole world." I "Wo will never sheathe the sword until 1 Belgium has got back her freedom: until 1 every Inch of her soil Is clear, until a treaty Is made not on a scrap of paper. but on a foundation behind which stands the millions of the British race." lllliC jffilf s From $1.00 Inclusive.

R. 20 STORIES OF ADVENTURE ( .FROM THE BATTLE FRONT The Kaiser's recent visit to the sol diers at the front Is described In tho Berlin Lokal Anzelger, Just received here, ns follows: "Tho Kaiser, wearing a gray uniform, appeared unexpectedly among the sol diers, who cheered, while tho bands played martial airs. "Meanwhile tho guns opened fire against the enemy's position. Tho Knlser, after repeatedly bowing his thanks to tho salu tation, praised the troops and conversed with several of the men. When ho naked one soldier what he thought of the enemy the man replied: 'I nm too busy fight ing; It is impossible to think.' There upon the Kaiser laughed and tho soldiers Joined in. "Similar Imperial visits, nil accompanied by martial music, cheering nnd gunfire, wero paid along the front." The French aviators have a new game since they have been brought Into nctlvo service with the armies In the field. This consists of counting the number of bullet holes in their machlnea after the flights of the day. Each hullet hole Is marked with a red chalk so that It cannot be counted In the next day's score. Tho record at present Is held hy ono of the blrdmen, who counted 3T bullet holes In his aeroplane nfter a flight. He Is at lowed to be tho "rocordmnn ilu monde." unit, according to his fellow-aviators, he hns earned his title. "We will rnm nil hostlio aircraft." That Is the vow taken by French and Belgian aviators, tho first man to carry out tho vow being the famous French aviator Clnrros. who Is reported to have been killed through ramming a German Zep pelin airship over Toul, In .French terri tory. Garros In his aeroplane dashed head- Inn, arvalnat tliA ntmhln TtlA Anvelnne was penetrated and the mammoth air ship wua nasneu io earui, an ine occu pants being killed. The aeroplane also fell, and the (ntrepld Frenchman was killed. f, Garros was one oP the world's most daring nlrmen.

At Tunis In the same year he reached a height of 17.400 feet. Last year he received the Legion of Honju'. GaTroa' heroic feat was followed by that r,i o nii-ln,i aviator, who at a heluht of 1600 feet charged a German aeroplane as it new over Liege, cumng mo .lytiii, nu chine In two. The heroic Belgian U said to have escaped alive. An East Prussian farmer gives the fol lowing Impression of the Invading Cos tack: "The Russians are by no means bad. The regiment that came to our village really behaved quite decently. They paid for what they got and didn't even so much as hutt a cat. They advlted us to stop calmly where we were, cultivate our fields and see to our cattle, and we aid so as long as we could. When the Russians arrived we hid our women and chlldron In the cellaie, but it was not necessary. Within 3t hours we were all going about as If we were in a state of profound peace. "The Cossacks are awful thieves, but otherwise they are ail right. They were not guilty of any acts of cruelty as long us we humored them and let them do at they pleased. But they never could see through a joke. "A ga of them, about 20, were rid. ir.g through a village a couple of miles south of Bl.'chofsburg and while they were naaslng a house in c"urse of cn- stwtten a bricklayer dropped a brlrk. which hit C0M-.U on th bei. Nat-1 urally the Cossacks thought it had been thrown purposely. It was an unfortu nate Joke, for not one of the workmen lived." For over a century the Cossack has been tho "bogyman" of Continental Eu rope. German and even French muthers to this day frighten their bahlea Into vbcdlenco with tho terrifying announce ment thnt "tho Cossack Is coming," Just as the English mothers of old used to slrtg to their refractory children: "Hush yo, hush yo, little pot ye, Hush ye, huoh yo, little fret ye, The Black Dougjns shall not get ye." But the Cossack U not so bad as he Is painted, to Judge, at any rate, from a letter in the Copenhagen Polltlken, dated from Berlin. It says: "Although East Prussia Is now virtually cleared of Hussiun troops, comparatively few of the inhabitants have returned to their homes, though the Russians, even tho much fearod Cossacks, seem to have behaved fairly well during the time they spent on German soil." A little humor wns Injected Into the German cruiser Nurnberg's occupation of the British cable station on Fanning Islund In tho Pacinc. In the operators' room a cable message was posted con spicuously which stated that tho Leipzig or Numbers was due any day. One of the German ofllcora saw this and, with a smile, said. "Rather Interesting, don't you think. I'll tako this as a souvenir," German sailors borrowed a saw from opp of the cable employes and felled a giant flag pole, ut the top of which flew a British flag. The pole wns cut Into sections and the saw and the flag wero taken aboard the Numbers as souvenirs. A correspondent who has witnessed fighting in the region about St. Mlhiel tells this story: "I was able to spend an entire day In the German trenches which have been constructed to prevent the French armies, with headquarters at Toul and Nancy, attempting a Hanking attack, in on of the trenches the soldiers had organised a tinging society. The whole scene was wonderfully picturesque. "A thick fog hid the French trenches, 800 yarda away. The ghostlike figures of the greenish gray-clad figures In the trenches were strangely silhouetted In the midst. Occasionally the thunder of the guns would punctuate the choruses. The singing was remarkable, as many of the soldiers had trained voices. Some stood at attention. Others had their hands tightly clasped In the attitude of prayer. They sang 'It's the Day of the Lord' and 'My Vatcrland, Beloved VaterUnd ' chtefly."
