OUR MOTTO
Longwy my troops found in that place
thousands of dum-dum bullets which
had been manufactured in special works
by the French government. Such bul
lets were found not only on French kill
ed and wounded soldiers and on French
lAisoners but also on English troops.
You know what terrible wounds and
awful suffering are caused by these bul
lets and that their use is strictly for
bidden by the generally recognized rules
of international warfare.
“I Solemnly Protest."
“I solemnly protest to you against the
way in which this wav is being waged
by our opponents, whose methods are
making it one of the most barbarous in
history. Besides the use of these awful
weapons the Belgian government has
openly incited the civil poulation to .par
ticipate in the fighting and has for a
long time carefully organized their re
sistance. The cruelties practiced in this
guerilla warfare, even by women and
priests, toward wounded soldiers and
doctors and hospital nurses were such
that eventually my generals were com
pelled to adopt the strongest measures
to punish the guilty and frighten the
blood-thirsty population from continu
ing their shameful deeds.
For Protection Alone.
“Some villages and even the old town
of Louvain, with the exception of its
beautiful town hall t Hotel He V ille) hau
to be destroyed for the protection of my
troops. . .
“My heart bleeds when I see RU ,
measures Inevitable and when I think or
the many innocent people who have lost
their houses and property as a result or
the misdeeds of the guilty.

’Frisco Mining Engineer, Re
turning From Russia to Lon
don, Reports Emperor Has No
Fear of His People
London, 10:20 a. m. —Newton Booth
Knox, an American mining engineer
of San Francisco who has Just reached
London from. Russia, related that Em
peror Nicholas may he seen motoring
through the streets of Petrograd un
attended, and apparently no more in
fear of his people than President Wil
son of his.
"I note a wonderful change of feel
ing in the Russian people since my
last visit," Mr. Knox said. "A new na
tional spirit has sprung into being. I
met the first evidences of this in Si
beria, where political prisoners are
being liberated. Tolerance is being
shown toward the Jews and there aro
treater liberties for all the people.
"All classes are full of enthusiasm
for the war. I saw movements of
troops all the way across Russia, and
was astonished at the efficiency of
the transport.”
Double Prices.
Mr. Knox said that the government
sis paying Russian peasants double
rices for their horses and the own
rs of motor cars are given half the
•riglnal pTlce of their machines.
“Russia and Siberia are liarvesting
the largest whet crop in years.” Mr.
Knox continued. "The Russians be
lieve there will tie a new era for their
country following the war, brought
about by British and French capital.
“While tiie people of Sweden l'avor
the allies, the ruling class Is in fear
of Russian aggression. The allies arc
popular in Norway.
Belgians Back in
Termonde Again
London, 2:55 a. m.—An Amsterdam
dispatch to the Chronicle says the
Belgians are back again in Termonde,
which is like an empty shell after tho
destruction done by the Germans
when the residents were unable to
raise a contribution of $200,000.
The Belgians continue a vigorous
offensive throughout the Province of
Antwerp, according to the dispatch,
and in east Flanders they have driven
the Germans from tho vicinity of
Aerschot and Blest.
Say French Armed
Snipers Long Ago
Washington—The German embassy
received today a message which
reads:
‘The German military railway lines
are now free. Tho papers also speak
of the 40,000 captured at Menbeurge
means the weakening of the tenemy.
"At Strassburg after a courtrnar
tial session the official statement was
made: ‘The French authorities two
months before mobilisation organized
Franctlreur (snipers) hands by dis
tributing arms to civilians.’’
Declare France is
Flooded With Hurt
Washington.— A message to the
German embassy says:
“Frankfurter Zeltung reports that
officers, while Louvain was burning,
brought pictures from, the cathedral to
the town hall for protection."
"The ‘H tarn pa,’ a paper at Turin,
reports that French confidence in its
general staff has vanished. Parisians
know that France is flooded with
wounded and that a great part of the
army are prisoners."
The Berlin message adds that a
“German war loan has been anounced
o' one, billion in treasury hills and
that an unlimited state loan at fivo
Jjer cent was given out at »7.5.”
Acute Indigestion.
"f was annoyed for over a year by
attacks of acute indigestion, followed
by constipation," writes Mr::. M. J.
Gallagher, Geneva, N. Y. “I tried
everything that was recommended to
me for this complaint hut nothing <lld
me much good until about four
months ago I saw Chamberlain's Tab
lets advertised and procured a bottle
of them from our druggist. I soon
realized that I had gotten the right
thing for they helped me at once.
Hlnce taking two bottles of them I rim
rat heartily without any bad effects.”
Hold by all dr-ajers.
