PITY FOR BELGIANS
Even tho poignancy of personal sorrows
failed t quench the ready sympathies of
this brave Er.slishwoman, who writes
thus concerning the stricken Belgians:
"I have been stirred to the depths by
the fall of Antwerp. The tragedy of Bel-
, slum should be complete, but as oneof
the refugees said, 'Tho Belgians have lost
all but their courage.' What a magnlfl-
- cent people! King Albert had been as
sured more than once that the city would
( be spared If he would only betray his
Allies and submit to the violators of
Belgian neutrality. But the young sov-
v ereign refused again and again. The
Verities tell us that In a military sense
' Antwerp Js an empty prize. But there Is
rejoicing In Berlin and menace to Eng
land. Their reasoning is unsound. They
Jbut make us set our teeth. Wo regret
..rutto uiuvu; vui iulr ui buii iiuuiury
preparation as would have enabled us to
save the Belgians from this last agony,
and we resolve never to lay down our
arms until King Albert's realm is re
stored, enlarged and secured.
"We are not depressed, but we aro at
tast awakened and determined. Well
my dear, we must await results, but the
Germans failed In the march on Paris;
they failed In the battle of the Marne.
they failed In the battle of the Alsne.
Five weeks ago Von Kluk's army was
.it the gates of Paris, now It Is over 100
miles away, and with little chance of re
turning. What have they achieved?
Bolely the ruin of poor little Belgium."

COMMON COUNCILMAN JOHN P. CONNELLY
He is chairman of the Finance Committee of Councils and mouthpiece
of the Republican Organization. Mr. Connelly yesterday intimated
that no appropriations would be made for the new Division of Hous

servers is that the other members of the Committee on Finance will
be guided by what Mr. Connelly stays.

"The Evening Ledger will publish your
statement In full relating to your Icws
on the new Division of Housing and Sani
tation," said a representative of the
Evening Ledger.
Select Councilman Beger gae no reply.
Another Councilman interviewed was
Common Councilman John P. Balzlej.
"Ar you In favor of better housing
conditions'"
'I am In favor of nny measure which
will help to bring about sanitary condi
tions," replied Balcley.
"Will you vote In faor of the appro
priations for the new Division of Hous
ing and Sanitation?"
Common Councilman Balzlcy refused to
onsner the question.
The joint Committees of Finance which
will have a vote ns to whether Philadel
phia's poor and their children are to con
tinue to live where filth and disease grow,
are composed as follows:
Common Councllmen Connelly, Morton,
R. Smith, Costello, F. Schwarz, Qteacon,
Bonnlck, Balzley, McCloskey, Q. II. Kel
ley, Darrow and McElroy.
Select Councllmen Patton, Trainer,

McKlnley, D'Autrcchy, Flnley, Flaherty
and De Prefontalne,
The argument of the owners of "tene.
ment dens" where there are no bathtubs,
toilets In the apartments, or courtyard
for the children to play. Is that the
new housing laws would mean extra high
expenditures. i
EXPOSH OWNERS' BLUFF,

the living- conditions pf the poor districts
of Philadelphia, and of vthlch represen
tative men and women are directors. In
one of the annual reports proies thst It
Is possible to tear down Indescribably
wretched houses and reconstruct better
dwellings and n-nt them without a loss.
The Octavla Kill Association does not
receive contributions. It solicits subscrip
tions of stock, on which dhidenda aro
paid. Its capital Is all Invested In houses
for the poor, worth the full par value of
Its capital stock,
HEABV TO PROVE FACTS.
"As I have said on many occasions,"
said Bernard J Newman, secretary of
the Philadelphia Housing Commission, to
day, "I am ready to go beforo Councils
and prove to them why Philadelphia's
poor need better housing conditions. I
have data and plain facts gathered and
confirmed by leading citizens If Councils
or any member of the Finance Commit
tee will ask me to tell him why the new
department should be put Into force I
shall gladly dq so."
Among those who are basking the ap
peal of the thousands of rssldent for
better sanitary conditions are:

since the Legislature passed better sani

George Nowland, a director of the
Phlladelphlang Housing Commission,
spoke before a large audience at a muss
meeting In Hoegcr's Hall, SMJ-North 29th
street, under the auspices of the North
Ponn Improvement Association last night
He made nn appeal that the Finance
Committee of Councils grant the appro

by the last Legislature.
The speaker outlined the present Insani

where tho tenement dwellers live and
went Into detail In showing the effects

U. S. PREPARED TO MOVE
FOR PEACE, SAYS WHITE
Ex-Ambassador Pays Significant
Visit to the President.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 2.
For nearly an hour today Henry White,
former United States Ambassador to
France, wan closeted with President Wil
ton. Neither the former envoy nor the
White HouJie would Indicate the nature of
the conference, but the fact that Mr.
White returned only recently from Europu
gave rise to a rumor that he was report
ing on a secret mission.
On leaving the executive omc, the form
er Ambassador said smilingly that his call
was merely "one of respect." He volun
teered the remark, however, that the
United States now was In an unusually
happy position to act when peace over
tures were proposed by the warring Pow
ers The psychological moment, he added,
had not yet arrived for action. In his
opinion.
PBIZE STOCK BURNED TO DEATH
32 Cows, Z Ponies and 8 Horses Lost
in Port Kennedy Fire.
NOimiSTOWN, Pa,. Deo. .-Th!rty-two
cows, two ponies and, eight horses
were burned to death this morning at S
O'clock, when a fire of unknown origin
completely destroyed a stone and frame
barn on the farm of Edward Blnns, a
Pittsburgh manufacturer, near Port Ken
nedy. The loss, not Including stock which
was of the prize variety. Is J 10,000.
Pestel What n Mul
I (Letter from a voting
i St. itato.)
1 My battery Is now near I) V,'e Ho
i near our big guns, around which we
' have built some miniature forts. To bo
able to slcpp we havo burrowed a large
hole, Into which ue also tumble when
the German "Jack Johnsons" hurl their
"coal boxes" at us. Wo call the hole the
' "Jolly Hotel," nnd havo Its name over
the entrance, nnd once In It we sleep
like infants.
We came last from E , 43 hours after
tho big battle of tho Marne. I was Just
then corporal of the firing squad, nnd
had the privilege, when not on duty, of
hunting up provisions, which were scarce
at E , for the "Boches" (slang name
Rhcn to the Germans by the French
soldiers) had taken almost everything.
I won glad, however, to find nnj thing,
for food had been scarce; as In the prev
ious retreat I had been In the rear
guard.
Tho next morning I started out early
to get a shave, which I needed badly,
after four weeks' growth of my beard.
I arrive at a barber's. What an ova
tion! I was tho first French soldier he
had seen since the Germans had left. The
whole family shook hands with mc, nnd
If I hadn't been so dirty I believe they
nit would have kissed me A man, who
wps only half shaved, gave mc his place,
and tho barber said to his wife. "Quick,
Louise, a good breakfant for that wel
come young man," As I begged him
but only for form's sake not to take so
much trouble, he answered: "Ta. ta, ta,
n young artilleryman who tins been
fighting must havo a good nppctltej be
side, I havo a son In tho artllleiy, and
1 shall bo glad to have you at my table."
I saw nil the preparations, "hors
d'neuire," ham, broiled chops, wine, cof
fee; In fact, a real Belshazzar's feast.
which I was not destined to enjoy and
which I shall never cease to regret.
For scarcely was I shaved, when I
heard the drum beat to resume our
maich. Adieu, my fine brenkfast! I
had only time to say good-by to my hos
pitable barber and his family and be
off. The odor of that breakfast seemed
t'i stay In my nostrils for two days. I
believe 1 can nlmost smell It now Oh,
how good it was!
Through Ruined Antwerp
from a meinlier of the Royal Naval
Volunteer llcscrvc, who has been Intoned
in Holland,
GnONINGEN (Holland).
The Dutch nre looking after us toler
ablywell. Wo havo to remember that we
are lucky to be alive, nnd muBt not
grumble. Though nominally guests, we
aro actually prisoners. Whenever we
leave the barracks It Is under armed
escort, and Jthc Dutch soldiers forming
the guard actually load their rifle before
our eyes. The barbed wire erected all
round the barracks makes us feel more
like caged animals than guests.
When we left the trenches wo were told
we were being relieved for a day by the
marines In order to get a little rest. It
wns nn hour later that we heard of the
retirement, and wo then marched silently
through the ruins of Antwerp, which was
blazing In 30 or 40 different places I
shall never forget the sight In some
places were dend Belgians nnd every
where ruin and desolation The town was
still being shelled i.nd we often had to
make detours to avoid the zone of shot
and shel' Every now and then a wiell
would w.ilzz over our heads and burst
a 100 yards away, and we were expecting
every minute that one ntouM drop short
and mow us down. As we approached
the docks the shells burst within M yards
of us and It seemed as though the Ger
mans know wo were there and were try
ing to hit us, but the luck always seemed
to be on our side.
Then thero was a huge burning building
barring our path, threatening every min
ute to 'collapse across the street. But we
passed safely and got to the pontoon
bridge and crossed the Scheldt There
was a danger here of the bridge collapsing.
as somo of tho fellows were Inclined to
make a rush across it, but this was
stopped by the cooolncss of the others,
and we opened out nnd crossed Blowly and
quietly. This bridge wns blown up by
the Uelgluus half an hour after our
brigade had got over. Some think It was
blown up beforo we had all crossed, as
we heard that some companies who left
the trenches later had to cross In boats
the next morning.
We marched and marched all that day,
not knowing anything definite except that
German cavalry were reported to be mov
ing in the vicinity, and at S o'clock In the
evening our commander, who was himself
as footsore and weary as any of us, put
It to us that the Holland frontier was
only an nours march away, and we
unanimously voted to go there. At that
time we were told that Holland had been
at war with Germany for three days
Also we understood that If this report
wag false we should have i hours to get
otot of the country If we gave up our
arms, and the result Is that we are In
terned In Holland, and I don't think there
)s a man here who would not willingly
purchase his freedom at the price of re
turning to the trenches.

BOY SLAYER FREED AFTER f
SLEEPLESS NIGHT IN CELL
Frightened tad Pleads With Guard
and Weeps for His Victim.
PAS3AIC, N. J Dec. 2.-Mx Bablno-
wltz, 10 years old, the youngest prisoner
ever put In n cell In this State charged
with murder, wan released last njgnt and
brought homo from tho Paterson Jail.
John M. Ward( counsel for tho boy,
had a conference with Prosecutor Dunn
yesterday and went Immediately to
liobokcn, where he saw Justice Mlnturn
nnd got the order for tho lad's release.
No ball was required, nnd the report
reached hero from Paterson that probably
no further action would be taken.
Max tried to bo bravo during tho more
than 24 hours he wsb confined In tho
county Jail, He was escorted to his cell
by n stnlwart guard, who slammed tho
doors with a crash, Then the boy tried
to become friendly and Inquired:
"Please, mister, wnen win i get ouiv
"I don't know," was nil the reply ho
got.
Sleep came hard to the ten-ycnr-old
slayer of his friend, Samuel Hochman
He talked about tho killing to himself
and his rest wns broken by memories of
the accident which cost the life of the
son of a neighbor and Intimate of the
Rablnowltz family. He was especially
anxious to clear himself before their play
mates and convince them that ho didn't
mean to kill "Sammy," but tB new gun
went off beforo he knew It
When Joseph Bnblnowltz, the lC-ycar-old
brother of tho prisoner, called at the
Jail he found Max crying. To tho first
efforts to comfort him, ho replied:
"I know, but I killed 'Sammy,' and
the boys will never bo my friends again.
Joe, what are they going to do to mo
here? Will they kill mo like big mur
derers.7" Ho wns told his life was safe.
Ho returned to n homo of sorrow, fully
ns much so a tho homo of young Koch
man, who was burled Monday. Both
famines were close to each other, and
the mother nnd stepfather, Harry Itocli
bnum, of the youthful ulayer, ara griev
ing as It their own boy was the Victim
Instead of tho cause of the other's death.
The police have arrested Isldor Har
ris, 1$, who sold Max the gun during; the
absence of his father.
