A THE 3IORXIXG OKEGOXIAX, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1914. BELGIANS THOUGHT TO BE WITH ALLIES Horsemen Find Themselves . Unable to Maneuver in Mass at Hazebrouck. AVIATORS ALWAYS ACTIVE Town Hall at Arras Is Burned to Ground in Bombardment Roye, Taken and Retaken 12 Times, v Still Is Battle Scene. PARIS, Oct. 15. The exact positions of the bulk of the allied armies are being kept strictly secret, but it is be lieved that the forces in France and Belgium have joined hands since the (all of Antwerp. The German cavalry around Haze brouck, France, which masked a move ment of the infantry, suffered a rude pheck from the allies before the battle at Ypres because the Germans were un able to operate freely in masses, owing: xo the nature of the ground where they were virtually at the mercy of the al lies' Infantry and artillery. Fighting? in Streets Is Sharp. Some lively street fighting occurred In Hazebrouck, on which place the Ger mans had made a daring raid, while at Arras the town hall was burned to the ground in a bombardment. ' The section where encounters are severest has suddenly changed from Koye to Lassigny, where the Germans tried to make a breach through the allied lines. The battle, however, Is still progressing about Koye, which has been taken and retaken at - least 12 times. Germans Surprised at Roye. The Germans experienced an un pleasant surprise at Roye from the rench infantry and artillery and af ter the French gunners baa battered them a German infantry battalion and Cavalry regiment surrendered. All along the intrenched line from Rheims to Verdun the aviators are do ing valuable work. The Germans continue to make great use of captive baloo'ns, which are beyond the range of the allies' guns. They usually carry three or four observers, who have telephonic connection with the ground and report all change in opera tions. Kites Used to Eutimate Altitude. Kites are also employed, which en able the Germans to estimate with ex actitude the altitude of the allies' aero planes, so that these aircraft are forced to mount high to escape shells. A French infantry officer who ar rived in Pris today reported that on the day Roye was recaptured frofn the Germans for the last time the French surrounded and captured, eight miles outside the town, 2000 German cavalry and infantry. IFRES OCCCPJJEIV BY ALLIES French itejvort Denies Destruction of Cuvulry Divisions. PARTS, Oct. 15. The official com munication issued tonight by the war office says! "The reports received tonight, which are in general terms, indicate no im portant modification in the situation." The report issued earlier in the day was longer than customary, being de voted in large measure to a denial of German reports concerning French losses. It suid: "In the Belgian field of operations there were some encounters during the night of October 12-13, and during the clay of the 13th, in the region around Gt.ent. French and English troops have occupied Ypres. "First, on our left wing, as far as the Oise, the operations are developing normally. "Second, on the center, previous re . ports of the progress of our armies In the region of berry-au-Bac have been confirmed. "Third, on our right wing, there is nothing new. "While It is not our custom to reply to the Inaccuracies of the German press, it seems to us proper to de nounce the false news published in cer tain.. German newspapers concerning tne pretended destruction of two di visions of French cavalry. This in lormation is absolutely erroneous. The truth is that certain forces of French find German cavalry, with supports, hav been engaged for several days alouS; the front at La Bassee, Kstacies and Bailloul. The German cavalry suc ceeded In maKing a very slight ad vance between the canal of La Bassee and the Lys, but they were obliged to draw back in the territory north of the Lys. "The losses sustained by the Ger man cavalry are assuredly as percept ible as our own. One of the German ' divisions suffered particularly because it was pursued during one entire day by our aviators, who did not cease to throw down bombs on the German troops. "Another case is the fact that the Germans announce ttiey are undertak ing the investment of Verdun. In this instance, also, to learn the truth, it is sufficient to refer to the situation as set forth on several different occasions in the French official communications "The Germans have not succeeued up to tne present time in hurling them selves against the fortified position of Verdun. They have, however, made two futile efforts to envelop at a consider able distance the French forces which are operating around Verdun. One ot these efforts was characterized by their attempt to go through the Argonne forest between Binarville and Varennes. It will be recalled that this movement failed, with very important losses. We ilid not even announce at the time that two German battalions had been anni hilated in this engagement. "The other enveloping movement on the part of the Germans, undertaken In .much greater numerical strength, was directed toward crossing th,e Meuse in the region of St. Mihiel. If the Ger mans succeeued in reaching this river in front between Maizey and Chauvon court, all their efforts to advance far tlit;r resulted in failure. These Ger man forces found themselves caught oo the flank by detachments of our troops, which advanced from the south to the north through the southern section of the heights of the Meuse and through the southern section of the Woevre dis tiict." ing from Ghent westward to the coast. pursued by our troops. We have occupied Lille and cap tured 4500 prisoners. "The municipality informed the Ger man commander that Lille was an open town, but nevertheless hostile troops were sent there and ordered to hold out until a turning movement from Dun kirk was executed. The troops from Dunkirk failed to arrive, with the re sult that during the German attack the town was slightly damaged. From the front in France there Is nothing new. Two heavy French batteries have been posted near the cathedral in Rheims. Also light signals have been observed from one of the- towers. The French methods of warfare continue to show no regard for the protection 'of the cathedral and it will be the fault of the French if the beautiful building falls a victim to the war. "In the Eastern theater the Russians have been repulsed near Schirwindt Bast Prussia. They lost 300 prison ers, 26 cannon and 12 machine guns. Lyck, East Prussia, again, is in our possession and Biala has been evac uated by the enemy. "Further south the Russian troops from Warsaw were defeated and 8000 prisoners and 25 guns taken." VICTORY STILL IS HOPE OF BELGIANS TALK IS COSTLY MU.NSTERBERG RESIGNS TO SAVES SUM TO HARVARD. . 1 Pro-German Utterance Leads Major Wiener to Threaten to Change Will it Professor Stays. CAMBRIDGE, Mass.,' Oct. 15. Hugo Munsterberg, professor of psychology at Harvard University, said last night that he- had offered his resignation to President Lowell. This action is the result of a letter sent by Major Clar ence Wiener, of London, to the over seers of the college to the effect that he would change a will by which Har vard would receive J10.000.O0O unless Professor Munsterberg were dismissed irom the .faculty. Unwarranted pro-German utter ances" by the famous psychologist in connection with the war were given by Major Wiener for the reason of his attitude. "I sent my resignation to President Lowell so that there might be no em barrassment in the matter and that the faculty be left free to act without having to consider my feelings," said Professor Munsterberg. President Lowell refused to discuss the resignation. The Harvard corpo ration is expected to take up Major Wiener's fetter and Professor Mun sterberg's resignation next week. Major Weiner, a member of the class of 1900 at Harvard, is the proprietor of the Wiener News Agency, Strand, London, England. He was born in Philadelphia in 1878. He attended Har vard one year, going to Cuba in 1897. During the next year he was on the staff of General Frederick D. Grant in Porto Rico. In 1899 he went to South Africa as a war correspondent. Sub sequently he saw stirring service there and organized a band of scouts. He was eight times wounded in South; Af rica. Major Wiener has been reputed to be immensely wealthy.

Continuous work, mental or physical, without proper vacation periods, without proper at tention to diet and exercise, also worry over, the struggles for success, are the most common causes. Excesses of almost any kind may produce it. Some diseases, like the grip, will cause neurasthenia. So also will a severe shock, intense anxiety or grief. The symptoms are over-sensitiveness, irritability, a disposition to worry over trifles, headache, possibly nausea. The treatment is one of nutrition of the nerve cells, requiring a non-alco holic tonic As the nerves get their ourishment from the blood the treat ment must be directed toward building p the blood. Dr. Williams- Pink Pills act directly on the blood and with proper regulation of the diet have proved of the greatest benefit in many cases of neurasthenia.

NEVADA NITRATE FOUND Ancient Lake Bed Near Fallon Said to Be Rich In Deposits. FALLON, Nev., Oct. 6 The disco v ery of an ancient lake bed containing vast deposits of potassium and soda nitrates is announced by C. W. Kinney, mining man - of this city. The de posit is situated 40 miles east of Fal lon. Speaking of his discovery,- Kinney said: , ' I have been what is known as an 'alkali' man all my life and could not possibly be mistaken in the nature of the ground or its contents. There is a big body of sodium nitrate, which may be assayed by the eye and by the taste, scent and weight, but there are also stringers of potassium nitrate, which must be anulyzed in order to de termine their value. I have put four men to work doin the location excavating, after which there will be permanent development in the way of deep open cuts. 'There is a peculiarity, and a very favorable one, in this deposit, as it does not exist in a basin, . point where water would seriously impede opera tions. but in the foothills. In my opin ion the point cf discovery was once a prehistoric lakebed. but was uplifted by a seismic convulsion. The deposit of niter appears to be about 300 acres in extent. At least that is the amount of ground myself and associates have taken up." GEKMAXS ItliPORT VICTORIES Lille Occnpied and Prisoners Taken Number 4500. LONDON. Oct. 15.

' WASHINGTON, Oct. 15. The procla mation posted in Ostend announcing the withdrawal ot Ihe Beigian government to French soil was received by cable tonight at the Belgian Legation. The text follows: "Citizens: For about two and a half months the Belgian soldiers have been defending, foot by foot, at the price of heroic efforts the fate of their coun try. The enemy certainly expected'to annihilate our army at Antwerp, but a retreat in which the order and dig nity have been irreproachable has suc cessfully foiled this hope and has as sured us the conservation of military forces which will continue to fight without respite for this most Just and noble cause. Victory Regarded as Certain. "At this moment these forces are op erating in the direction of our southern frontier, where they are supported by the allies. Thanks to their valorous co-operation, the victory of justice is ertain. Notwithstanding the sacrifices already endured by the Belgian nation. with a courage equaled only by its magnitude, a new trial is added by the present circumstances. In order not to serve the plans of the invaders, it is important that the Belgian government temporarily es tablish Its seat in a place from which it may, in contact with our army on one side and with France and England on the other, continue to exercise and to assure the continuance of the na tional sovereignity. For this reason the government is leaving Ostend to day, with a grateful remembrance of the welcome which this city has glv en it- Sovereign Power Exercised. The government temporarily will be established at Harve. where the noble friendship of the government of the French Republic has offered our gov rnment, with the fullness of Its sov. ereign rights, the entire exercise of its authority and also of its duties. Citizens, this momentary ordeal which cur patriotism must accept, will have, we are sure, its prompt revenge. The .Belgian administration will con tinue to operate in full measure as far as the local circumstances will permit. The King and the government depend upon your judgment, upon your pat riotism,. On your part, you may count upon ourentire self devotion, upon the gallantry of our army and upon the support of the allies to hasten the hour of mutual deliverance. "Our beloved country, so odiously treated by one of the powers which had solemnly promised to guarantee her neutrality,, has excited a growing ad miration in the whole world. Thanks to tne union, tne courage ana tne sa gacity of all her children, she will re main worthy of this admiration, which sustains her today. Tomorrow, she will emerge from her trial greater and more beautiful, having suffered for Justice ana tne honor of civilization. 'Long live free and independent Bel gium.

' CHICAGO, Oct. 6 Doubtless Michael Kennedy's schooling never progressed to the point where he reaped the mani fold intellectual bounties of McG,uffy's econd reader. Consequently there were those who believed Michael misguided when he opened up his shooting gallery in a basement on North Clark street, near West Erie -street.

LONDON, Oct. 15. Teleerraphin Wednesday morning from Calais, the Daily Chronicle s correspondent says "The position on the allies' left wing, which is now the most important section of the longr battle line, grows daily more satisfactory. The fitrhtin around Lille has been extremely sat isfactory to the allies. The Germans have been turned out of the semi circular positions which they held around Lille and the corner of French territory which juts into Belgium there. "The Germans have been pushed back as far as Courtrai (in Belgium, 26 miles southwest of Ghent), where they are entrenching. It appears that they will make a stubborn endeavor to hold the line of Blankenbe, Bruges and Courtrai. "It was the German intention to make a dash on Calais coincidentally with the taking: of Antwerp. In ac cordance with this plan, they advanced in force on Hazebrouck, Mont Cassel and Saint Omer.

Recently Justice Jaycox, in the Su preme Court, in Brooklyn, granted Mrs. Ditson alimony of $250 a month and $1000 counsel fee. Gossip of the Chevy Chase and Met ropolitan clubs at Washington, of which Mr. Ditson is a member. prompted Mrs. Ditson to engage de tectives to watch her husband when he came to New York last Spring. Her complaint sets forth that he was found in the York Hotel with "an unknown woman." Through his attorney, Gilbert E. Roe, of No. 55 Liberty street, Manhattan Mr. Ditson had filed an answer in which he made a general denial of the accusation. The answer was unverified and not in the form of an affidavit. When the matter came before Jus tice Jaycox he submitted an affidavit in which he asserted that the evidence was obtained as the result of collusion and that he had entered into an agree ment with his wife by which she was to have an opportunity to obtain the evidence neceesary for a divorce. "Do you intend to use collusion as a defense in the action?" Justice Jaycox asked. "I cannot say." was Mr. Roe's answer.
