FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 4. Action U. S. Minister Saved Destruction of Brussels By Germans Belgian Commander Adamant Upon Demand For Surrender. Mr. Whitlock Officially Congratulated By King—Wonder ful Spectacle Was Entry of Kaiser's Army Into the Capital London, 2.35 a. m. —The correspon dent pf the Telegraph who has just returned from Brussels says a young Frenchman who represehted the Chi cago Daily News in Brussels, has been arrested and shot. "On Saturday,” said the correspon dent, “I reported to German head quarters in Brussels where I found Ven. Von Jarotzky. I asked for a pass and received one to go anywhere signed by Von Jarotsky, who com mand a brigade of 5,000 men in an army of over a million. “I went to a point near Hal, where I learned of the great turning move ment toward the allies left flank. I realized at once that no newspaper man would be allowed here. 1 felt sure that if I remained I would be arrested and shot as a spy. Became Alarmed. “On my return to Brussels 1 found the town in turmoil owing to Von Jarotsky’s stupidity which had nearly Involved the town in the same fate as that of Louvain. He had been left In the city with 5,000 men and he moved 3,000 of these suddenly out of the city. Then as suddenly he be came alarmed for the safely of the re mainder among so large and hostile a population and he therefore marched back the 3,000 who were camped out side. “The citizens seeing these men has tily returning, at once jumped to the premature conclusion that the Ger mans were being forced to retreat in a great battle outside the town and that they were fleeing in confusion. .Some of the inhabitants wished to take arms and finish off Von Jarotsky and his men but fortunate;., the error was discovered in time. Surrender Demanded. “T was in Brussels for some time before the Germans entered. It was midday of Wednesday (date not given) when the German commander demanded the surrender of Brussels. The commandant replied that he. was bound by his honor to defend the town. “Brand Whitlock, the American minister, advised the unconditional surrender, pointing out how resist ance might bring increased misfor tunes on the citizens, but the com mander remained adamant until or ders arrived from King Albert telling him to surrender. Congratulated by King. "Later Mr. Whitlock was officially congratulated by the king for his action. Undoubtedly he had a great deal to do with saving Brussels. “The German entry into Brussels was a wonderful ahd impressive sight. I have seen many military parades in time of peace but never a parade on sd vast a scale which went on with out a hitch. "It was impossible to imagine that there men had been fighting contigu ously for ten days or that they had ever been in active service. First of all came six cyclists, then a detach ment of cavalry, then a great mass of infantry, then guns and field guns and more infantry, then huge How itzers, then a pontoon train and then more infantry, from half past one on Thursday until Sunday morning with out a break. Especially Impressive. “The pontoon trains were especially impressive. They were carried up side down on trolleys drawn by six horses. All cavalry horses as well as the horses of the artillery and coin misary were in wonderful condition. “Each company was accompanied by a traveling stove, the fire of which was never out. There was always some hot drink ready for the troops. As the Germans marched they sang all sorts of songs and national airs. Like everything else their singing is perfectly organized. “An aeroplane kept its station ahead of the advancing horde and it signal led both day and night by dropping various colored stars. Immense Mass. “I became overwhelmed after watch ing this immense mass of men march ing by without a hitch for three days. I never believed such a perfect ma chine could exist. In all about 250,000 men passed through Brussels and thousands more marched south direct from Louvain. The German soldiers, many of them, marched thirty miles daily for six successive days. Some were so weary they slept as they walked and occasionally one fell ex hausted, whereupon an officer would kick and prod until he awoke him. The man was then given hot coffee The men are slaves of discipline and routine.” Diarrhoea Quickly Cured. “My attention was first called to < 'hamberlain'a Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as twelve years ago. At that time I was se riously ill with summer complaint. One dose of this remedy checker! the trouble,” writes Mrs. C. W. Florence, Hockfield, Ind.
