Flood Frontier Country
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 18, 6.40 A. M.—The
Rotterdam correspondent of the Dally
Telegraph reports that Holland is tak
ing most elaborate precautions along
her frontier to enforce her neutrality.
Detachments of cavalry constantly
patrol the frontier and large forces of
Infantry guard the roads, which are
blocked at frequent intervals with
barbed wire entanglements and barri
cades.
The roads are the key to the sit
uation, as artillery cannot be taken
across the open fields, which are
marsh lands.
In towns near the frontier large
bodies of troops are congregated and
the possible lines of invasion are com
manded by powerful forts which are
strong and modern. Arrangements are
complete for flooding the country of
the frontier at a moment's notice.
In the neighborhood of the forts
the houses, trees and crops have been
leveled to make it impossible for an
army to approach under cover. Sev
eral whole orchards have been cut
down. The rivers are protected by
armed barges.

desultory fighting along the northern
lines on Sunday. To the southwest of
| Louvuiu I saw a stiff encounter.
"A thousand Prusslun cavalry came
up from the cllrevtlon of St. Trond
with the apparent Intention of effect
ing a surprise. Their advance guard
is alleged to hove been dressed in uni
forms taken from Belgian prisoners.
This enabled tile Germans to approach
close to the Belgian lines without their
identity being suspected. The Belgian
soldiers in camp were picnicking with
the townspeople when the cry was
heard 'The Uhlans are coming!'
"Almost immediately a terrific fire
was opened on the outposts by the
Germans. The dismounted Belgian
cavalrymen were thrown into con
fusion. but rallied quickly, and, with
drawn sabers, charged the enemy with
such ferocity that the Germans in
front turned and fled.
"The main body of Germans behind
were put 011 the defensive and the
Belgians literally cut a path through
the German mass. The German ma
chine guns then came to their rescue,
mowing down the valiant Belgians.
"It might have gone hard with the
Belgians save for the timely arrival of
a battery, which tired repeated chars'es
of shrapnel, completely demoralizing
the Germans.
"Several young women picnickers
were witnesses of all this fighting.
They were very cool and not one of
them was injured."
