Much to Strength of Allies. '
LONDON. Nov. 1. How the British
strengthened their artillery by the in
troduction of new weapons and the
skillful handling of the old along the
front in Flanders, where the Germans
were driven back in the great offen
Kive of September 25. is the chief dis
closure of popular interest in a long
orriclal dispatch from Field Marshal
Sir John French to Earl Kitchener.
which is published tonight under date
of General Headquarters in France,
October 15.
The dispatch is mainly a technical
military revue of the inception, the
larryins out and the aftermath of
the fighting around La Bassee, Loos
and Hulluch. Nevertheless It brings to
the British public for the first time
a full realization of the intensity with
which the Germans launched their
counter-attacks.
Attacks Almost Continuous.
These, General French says, were al
most continuous from the day of the
big British attack up to and including
October 8. Then, the field marshal
writes, the Germans delivered an attack
with some 28 battalions in the front
line and with larger forces in support,
which was preceded by a very heavy
bombardment in all parts of the Ger
man front.
"At all points of the line except two
the Germans were repulsed with tre
mendous loss and it is computed on
reliable authority they left some 8000
or 9000 dead in front of the British
and French trenches," General French
says.
Healing with the British losses in the
action of September 25, the field mar
shal says:
"I deeply regret the heavy casualties
incurred in this battle, but, in view of
the great strength of the position, the
stubborn defense of the enemy and the
powerful artillery with which he was
supported. I don't think they were ex
cessive. 1 am happy to be able to add
that the proportion of slightly wounded
was relatively large, indeed."
British Are Reinforced.
Field Marshal French here refers
.to the improvement in the artillery and
the arrival of British reinforcements,
saying:
"Since my last dispatch, the army has
received strong reinforcements and
every reinforcement has iad its quota
of field .artillery. In addition, numer
ous heavy guns and howitzers have
been added to the strength of the
heavy artillery. The arrival of these.
reinforcements in the field tested the
capacity of the artillery -as a whole to
expand and meet the requirements of
the army.
"Our enemy may have hoped, and
not, perhaps, wtthout reason, that it
would be impossible for us, starting
from such small beginnings, to build
up an efficient artillery to provide for
a very large expansion of the army.
If he entertained such hopes, he now
has good reason to know that they
have not been Justified by results.
ew Artillery Exceeds Hopes.
"The efficiency of the new artillery
and new armies exceeded all expecta
tions, and during the period under re
view, excellent services have been ren
dered by the territorial artillery. The
repulse of the enemy attack on Octo
ber 8 in the neighborhood of Loos and
Hulluch with such heavy losses shows
the capacity of the artillery to con
centrate its Are promptly and effect
ively at a moment's notice."
or the use by the British forces of
gas. Field Marshal French says the
repeated use of gas by the Germans
compelled him to resort to a similar
method.
"A detachment was organized for
this purpose and took part in the oper
ations, commencing September 20, for
the first time." says the Field Marshal.
Gas Attack Is Successful.
"Although the enemy was known to
have been prepared for such reprisals,
our gas attack met with marked suc
cess, producing a demoralizing offect
in some of the opposing units, of which
ample evidence was forthcoming in
captured trenches. The men undertak
ing thi work carried out their un
familiar duties with conspicuous gal
lantry and coolness, and are confident
of their ability to more than hold their
own should the enemy again resort to
this method of warfare."
In the concluding paragraph, Fieul
Marshal French pays tribute to the oo-
operation of the French forces with
the British and refers to the arrival
in the field from Canada of a new
division, which, he says. Is composeil
of excellent material.
"This division will, I am convinced,
ncquit itself, as well as the first Cana
dian division always has done," the
Field Marshal says.

the existing government under Yuan
Shi Kai formed the best guarantee for
the preservation of order.
"The Chinese Minister for Foreign
Affairs. implying to the representations,
:.id he recognized the friendly inten
tions of the powers, but he pointed
out that the question Was purely in-
fernal and ah the. movement for the
Fe-esta-biiahmentof- the- monarchy was
the outcome of the popular sentiment,
it was not one which the Chinese gov
ernment could suspend or delay or ex
pedite. "He added, replying to the sugges
tion of disorders to follow a change in
government, that as to internal order
he could give a formal guarantee for
its preservation during the change,
based on reports received in Pekin
from all the high Chinese provincial
authorities, in all instances without
exception, that "untoward events were
anticipated as the result of change
from a tepublie to a monarchical form
of government-" ,
Germans Are Accused.
Diplomatic representatives of the
allied powers here openly ascribe to
German activities the rapid develop
ment of the monarchical government
movement in China on the theory that
the disorders likely to follow in China
will require Japanese intervention and
consequently suspend Japan's supply of
arms and munitions to the Russians.
It is pointed out, however, that an
other strong and characteristically
oriental factor is involved. This i
said to be the absolute necessity of the
Chinese mind for spiritual aid in ma
terial development. For centuries past;
it has been the custom of the Chinese
Emperor to repair annually to a special
temple dedicated for that purpose in
Pekin and offer prayers to the three
gods of heaven, agriculture and mining.
to prosper Chinese husbandry and busi
ness. The Chinese coolie element have
implicit confidence in the efficacy of
these prayers. Agitators in favor of
the monarchy have spread broadcast
the conviction that a mere person, no
matter how able and beloved, never
could lift his voice to the god heads.

Police Score Criminal Prosecutor
Releaslns Pueltlve From Cali
fornia Penitentiary.
for
MILWAUKEE, Wis.. Nov. 1. (Spe
cial.) The discovery by the police that
the man they arrested in a raid on a
disorderly place here under the name
of John Loring is in reality J. Austin
Hooper, wanted for having violated his
parole from ths Folsom, Cal., peniten
tiary, has caused strained relations be
tween the police department and the
office of the criminal prosecutor
Hooper was arrested in a raid and
was found to be carrying an ammonia
squirt-gun and a revolver. He claimed
to be a secret agent of the German
government. Ex-Governor McGovern
was retained and told the prosecutor's
office that he was the son of a prom
inent Wisconsin attorney and that this
was his first arrest. He promised that
tne prisoner, it treed, would never
again trouble the police, and this rep
resentation was made to the court
by the prosecutor's office.
The man was set free without the
police being informed that he was
to be arraigned. As soon as his re
lease became known, the police started
at once to hunt for him. believing him
to be wanted elsewhere.
He disappeared, however, the mo
ment he left the courtroom. Not until
Friday did the police learn definitely
that he was Hooper, who was under
life sentence in California for robberv
with violence.
-The police sharply criticise the prose
cutor for setting the man free with
out consulting them, saying if the
prosecutor had told them the man's
real name, they could have told in
stantly who he was.

I'UDllslied by Arrangement.
PARIS, Oct. 11.-
Although the for-
tn legion has suffered severely in
this last offensive. Americans whose
friends are listed in this regiment need
ot feel uneasy, for the majority of
Americans formerly placed here and
etailed for . trench duty have since
changed to the aviation corps of the
foreign legon.
I have heard of only one American
Mr. Casey, for a long time a member of
the Latin Quarter here in Paris who
as been killed. For the most nart. the
American boys have preferred aviation,
and since they make splendid Pilots.
the French have been only too glad to
se tnem In this caoacitv. William
Thaw, Elliott Cowden and Norman
Prince have already been decorated
with medals.
There is a man here in Paris an
American who has' done more for the
cause of sport - and outdoor life in
France than anv other man. He is a
friend of every devotee of tennis, foot
ball, boxing, racing and similar sports.
He Is in- direct correspondence with
more than 100 men on the front. At
his house all these "young Frenchmen
gather when they come back on per
mission or wounded, and it is here that
one hears amazing tales of bravery,
daring, sacrifice.
. Sport Take to A viatloa.
Many of the men interested in snorts
have gone into the aviation corps, so
one hears a preponderance of flying
stories. The other night the hero of
that spectacular rescue back of the
German lines was there. - I think the
tory was quoted in the miners but thin
boy's own words are more vivid, I'm
sure.
I started out with X ." he said.
each of us with a man. to droo back of
the German lines. We do that, you
know, and make a rendezvous to nick
them up a week later at some parti
cular spot. We separated some little
distance from the line and went our
separate ways, and on my way out w
were fired on and I got a niece of
shrapnel in the thigh.'
However, we were so near that it
seemed a shame to go back for that,
so, as it wasn't impossible to bear we
went on and I dropped my man. On
the way coming back I saw a volume
of smoke in a field and came down
little to see what it was. It was X
who had dropped his man and on the
way uacK nan peen forced to come
down, owing to th damage the Ger
mans had-done to his machine. So he
was setting fire to the aeroplane and
intended to take to the woods onlv
there weren't any afterwards, and
avoid capture, if possible.
Aeroplane la Captured.
I made a landing it was a fine.
smooth field and picked him up and
we came on home safe and sound."
The young man didn't say anything
about the condition of his leg, which
kept him in bed for weeks, nor about
the legion of honor medal which was
awarded him.
Another man told of an excitinsr chase
given an aviatik. The, aircraft crossed
the French lines and was fired on. The
onjy damage done, though, was a hole
in tne radiator.
At some distance back of the lines
tne macnine came down on French ter
ritory to bandage up the radiator and
when this man saw It descending he
called three comrades and the four of
tnem rushed off across fields and
ditches and through underbrush and
woods. It was about a half mile awn v
and as they ran out of a little thicket
the pilot was in his seat Just about to
start the engine and the observer was
straddling the rigging to climb in. As
he saw the four. men approaching he
made a motion toward the machine
gun.
The Frenchman, who had nothing but
his automatic revolver, drew it and
nrea at the observer and missed him
who was protected by the fusillaze.
Praying violently that the man couldn't
fire his machine gun for at least two
seconds, the Frenchman fired on the
pilot, who had already started his ma
chine the front wheels were alreadv
iiitea on tne rieia.
Machine Is Perfect.
It was a perfect shot, for the bullet-
eniennc oy tne DaCK. struck the he&rt
and the man fell forward on the wheel
dead. The twist which he gave the
wheel and the shock to the machine
made the observer fall from his Dnv,
carious position, and he was made an
immediate prisoner.
ine machine was one of the newest
German types, beautifully made and
finished, with many new ideas which
win pe utilized oy me i rencn. It was
in perfect condition except for the
pierced radiator.
Another guest at this house has Wcrn
employed in the British secret service
and he was telling of a woman he found
in the trenches. Something in the at
titude of the soldier made him suspi
cious and going close he asked for the
soldier's papers. A very delicate white
hand slipped into the pocket and
brought out perfect papers, even to a
permission for leave. But as soon as
the secret Bervice man heard the voice
he knew he had a woman before him.
Captain Is Punished.
She was arrested and examined. But
she did not seem to be a spy. She
seemingly had no appreciation of the
seriousness of her case, nor the possi
bility of punishment. She is now be
ing confined for three months In a
convent in the south as a prisoner, so
that if she was there for information
it will be useless after that time.
Her discovery, however, cost several
men dear. The captain of the com
pany, who. through his sergeant, is
supposed to be informed of every man.
was held responsible, though he really
knew nothing about it. Although he
had been in the service 12 years and
had come up from the ranks, he was
degraded. Also four men who had
brought food to the woman were given
two years' imprisonment.
Another story the men told was of
a different sort. For a long time the
French had been anxious to know what
regiment they had opposite them in
one pot in the line. So orders went
out to " "nail" a German soldier and
find out from the number on his col
lar. Germaa Dies mm Hers.
Some men hid in shell holes all day
and at night they brought a man back
into the trenches. He was an officer,
however, and so had no number. As
soon as he was brought in it was seen
that he had been dangerously wounded.
A doctor was sent for and after that

was officially reported as satlcfactory.
The King reached Victoria station
by special train. Great precautions
were taken to insure privacy, the
greater part of the station being closed.
The public exit was also closed, but
the elaborate nature of the measures
defeated their purpose, as they at
tracted a large crowd, which lined all
approaches to a considerable distance
and loudly cheered when the King's
motor appeared, followed by several
others containing members of his suite.
