lowed the outbreak of the war had
subsided elaborate orders were issued
that every courtesy be shown Ameri

L-.idon, Aug. 25. 5.15 A. M.—Com
menting on the fall of fJamur before
the Germans, the Times says It Is one
of those Inexplicable events which
makes war the gamble that It Is. That
Namur should have fallen In two days
will require a deal of explanation, the
Times adds.
Commenting on the loss of the Bel
gian stroqghold the Chronicle says:
"The news to-day is decidedly bad,"
adding that If the allies' losses have
been heavy "we may yet see the Ger
mans marcMng earnest upon Paris.
Namur is a fortress of great strength
which Its defenders could possibly
hold several months. We do not im
agine that it was taken by a rush.
More probably a breach made else
where in the line of the allies Imposed
on them the alternative of leaving a
large force to be invested in Namur
or withdrawing from It altogether.
Germans Powerful
"The blunt fact remains that in a
really first class battle the French
troops occupying a secluded position
of singular strength were driven out
by the Germans after not more than
two days fighting. This speaks vol
umes for the power of the German at
tack.
"England and Russia must stub
bornly resolve that come what may
to France, they will never surrender
to Germany, but will sUck to her as
they stuck to Napoleon until they put
her down. As long as we* hold the
sea we cannot ourselves be vitally
struck."
The Times military expert says It Is
too early to say that the line of the
Meuse south of Mezieres must be
abandoned, but the outlook is not fa
vorable and the development of the
situation in the next few days will be
watched with legitimate anxiety. He
continues:
"There are reports that the towns
people and even the garrison of Na
mur were less well disposed than the
men of Liege to offer a strenuous re
sistance and so bring upon their town
the punishment meted out by Ger
mans to Liege. There is undoubtedly
some slight feeling among Belgians
"that they have not been adequately
supported by the allies and that they
have borne the whole brunt of the
war in the north, but we cannot be
lieve that the Belgians did less than
their duty and we expect to hear that
they were attacked by overpowering
numbers.
Position Was Vital
"The possession of Namur was vi
tal for Germany and it was a fine
stroke for the Germans to have rush
ed the place under the eyes of the
allied armies. We still hope and be
lieve that our counter offensive in
the north is only postponed and not
abandoned."
Reviewing the general situation, the
Times military expert points out that

Zeppelin Airship Drops
Under Fire of Belgians
By Associated Press
London, Aug. 25, 1.30 P. M. —The
correspondent at Antwerp of tha
Evening News telegraphs that a Zep
pelin airship, which flew over Ant
werp last night was brought down by
Belgian artillery fire at Hemlxam, six
miles outside Antwerp. The crew of
fifteen men were taken prisoners.
The dispatch evidently refers to the
same airship reported earlier in the
day from Antwerp as having flown
over the city last night.
Another dispatch from Antwerp
says that Zeppelin, before it was
brought to earth, succeeded in drop
ing seven of eight bombs into Ant
werp. One of the houses wrecked by
the missiles was situated only 300
yards from the palace of King Albert.
Seven persons were killed and six
seriously Injured by the explosion.
Some other houses were half demol
ished by the falling bombs.
One bomb partly wrecked the hos
pital of St. Elizabeth, but fortunately
there were no patients in the building.
The bombs exploded with terifflo
force and threw the inhabitants of
Antwerp into a state bordering panic.
There is intense indignation in Ant
werp at the attack upon the hospital
which was flying the Red Cross flag.
