FRENCH CAVALRY_fiIVISIONS ROUTED
Cntlaueil From FltM
and the Oise and that cavalry engagements continue in the
region of La Bassce, Estaires and Hasebrouck.
Special attention is directed to Ostend. There have
assembled the greater part of the Belgian army and about
two thirds of the British forces that escaped from Ant
werp. It is believed that Germany is pushing forward to
attack the city with the hope of capturing and using the
port in her operations against Elngland.
A hitter struggle to keep the Germans from the coast
is inevitable. To-day's reports indicate that the German
cavalry advance is less than thirty miles distant from
Ostend.
The strength of the allies at Ostend is not known. It
is possible that British reinforcements which were unable
to reach Antwerp in time to help iu the defense of that
city are now in Ostend.
Still less is known of the situation in the Eastern thea
tre of war. Petrograd is silent on recent developments.
The Russian War Office explains this silence on the
ground of strategy. Vienna claims that the Russian at
tack 011 Przemysl, the strong fortress in Austrian Galicia,
has failed. Berlin asserts that the Russian advance on the
East Prussian frontier has been checked while the Ger
mans are steadily working eastward in Russian Poland.
Neutral sources report that cholera is spreading in
Austria.

General Hirschauer, an Aeronautic Ex
pert, Appointed to Take Charge of
the Aerial Defense of the City
Against Attacks From Aeroplanes
Paris, Oct. 12, 11.15 A. M.—A
German aeroplane, at a quarter past
ten this morning, dropped bombs be
tween two railroad trains that were
in the act of pulling out of the North
ern railroad station. The missiles did
not explode and were later found im
bedded two feet in the earth. The rail
road trains were crowded with pas
sengers.
It was announce* officially latter in
t'he day that a Taube aeroplane 'had
flowu over Pairis this morning and
thrown down six bombs. Five IFrenu'ih
aviators went up to pursue the German
airman,
A new squadron of aircraft has beero
formed to deal with German aviators.
Paris, Oct. 12, 9.40 A. M.—The
progress of the campaign in the north
of France and the fall of Antwerp were
forgotten for a moment to-day by the
people of Paris who spent their time
discussing the throwing of bombs on
the capital from German aeroplanes, as
a result of which three persons were
killed yesterday and fourteen wound
ed. At the same time officials adopted
measures looking to the prevention of
similar acts in the future.
The first thing done was the ap
pointment of General Hirschauer tc
I take charge of the aerial defense of
j the city. General Hirschauer is an aero
nautic expert. He organized last year
the aerial branch of the army service.
Later a number of deputies met at the
: call of Deputy Denys Cochin to con
j sider various means of rendering the
city more secure from an aeroplane at
! tack.
Creation of Aerial Squadrons
The creation of aerial squadrons sta
t tioned at cardinal points to be always
i ready to dash after the air craft of
the enemy as soon as they shall be
seen approaching the city, the arming
I of fast monoplanes with quick-firing
; guns and the telephoning of warnings
bv residents of the capital to the
! French Aero club, which is now under
! military control, were among the sug
gestions discussed. Finally, M. Cochin
; sent a telegram to Bordeaux, urging
i the immediate adoption of efficacious
| measures with the view of reassuring
' the people.
The news that one of the German
bombs yesterday struck the Cathedral
of Notre Dame hag been communicat
, ed to the Vatican. It is reported that
| the Pope exclaimed upon getting the
I message: "Providence has pjevented
an outrage whieh would have shocked
j the world."
Military critics, commenting to-day
! movement of armies in th'e
j Apremont region, declare it is worthy
of note that Apremont, to the east of
j Mihiel. is the route the enemy would
take if they sought to withdraw from
St. Mihiel in the direction of Lor
raine. Their position in this vicinity
i means much to them, it is declared.
Paris. Oct. 12. 7.20 A. M.—The
bomb which fell on the Cathedral of
Notre Dame was filled with an in
flammable substance, as a joist on the
roof caught fire quickly. 'The flames
were extinguished, however.
GERMANS ENDEAVOR TO CUT

London, Oct. 12, 3 20 A. M. —The
"Daily Mail's" Ghent correspondent,
in a dispatch dated Saturday, says:
"The Germans have thrown a pon
toon across t'he river Scheldt at Wet
teren and are pouring a large force
northward in the hope of cutting off re
treat from Antwerp. In doing this
they are weakening their defense of
Brussels ajid are being met by a strong
force, whieh is compelling them to re

MINES COST MANY GERMAN
LIVES IN TAKING ANTWERP
Rotterdam, via I/ondou, Oct. 12, 4.48
A. M.— A correspondent of the "Tldj,"
describing the scenes at Antwerp, sa.ya:
" When the outer forts were silenced,
t'he Belgians, their heads swathed in
bandages and their elattoes smeared
with mud, withdrew to the inner line.
Two commandants r»lew up their fons
and spiked their guns,
"The Germans succeeded in forcing
a breach in the inner girdle of forts
sooner tiham was expected. Belgian
mines of the inner and outer forts cost
j the Germans thousands of lives, but
i General Von "Beseler, the German com
| mander, apparently had been ordered to
take the oitv at all cost with a view of
safeguarding the Germany army in the
north of Prance.
"The siege of Liege was as nothing
I in comparison to the last two nights of
the bombardment of Antwerp, which
I was the most terrible of t'he war. While
the bombardment wa3 at its height the
| prisoners began to battel- at the door*
|of their cells because bombs had
pierced the roofs of the prison. They
howled like mad men until released and
then rushed through the street plunder
ing houses/J
