' T HEAVY DOTTED LINB MARKS BATTLE I'ROT ACROSS FRANCE AND INTO BELGICM. GERMANS HAVE TAKEN OSTEND AND ARE FIGHTI NG FOR AFTER DUNKIRK IT IS SUPPOSED THEIR NEXT OBJECTIVE WIl.Ii BE CALAIS, WHICH IS NEAREST POINT TO ENGLAND. CHURCHILL REPLIES TO CRITICS AT HOME Before Antwerp Declared of Value to Allies. MEN'S CONDUCT PRAISED : First Ivord of Admiralty, Congratu lating Naval Brigades on Re turn, Says They Upheld Tra ditions ot Corps. ' LONDON, Oct 17. Winston Spencer Churchill.' First Lord of the Admiralty, who has been severely criticised in Home quarters for dispatching naval brig-ades to .'Antwerp to assist in the defense of that fortress, has sent these organizations a congratulatory message on their return, which is made public by the Admiralty. The First Lord justifies the action taken and ays: "The loss of a portion of the first .brigade through a mistake in no way reflects upon the quality or character ft the division. jL Tradition Fnlly Sustained. "The brigades of Royal Marines throughout the operations sustained fully, by their firmness, discipline and Courage, the traditions of the corps. "It is not necessary to say more than this. The navy brigades bore them selves admirably under the artillery fire of the enemy, and it is to be regretted that no opportunity of closer contact with his infantry was afforded them. "The dispatch of the naval brigades to Antwerp has interrupted for the time the progress of their instruction and training. They were chosen be cause the need for them was urgent; because mobile troops could not be spared for fortress duties; because they were nearest and could be embarked the quickest, and because their train ing, though incomplete, was as far ad' vanced as that of a large portion, not only of the forces defending Antwerp, cut of the enemy s forces attacking. Move Not Mere Incident. "The naval division was sent to Ant werp, not as an Isolated incident but s -a part of a large operation for the rener or tne city, otner and more powerful considerations prevented this jrom being carried through. -The de fense of the inner lines of Antwerp could have been maintained for some days and the naval division withdrew only when ordered to do so, in obe dience to the general strategic situ ation and not on account of an at tacit r pressure of the enemy. "The prolongation of the defense. due to the arrival of the division, en abled the ships In the harbor to be rendered useless and many steps Of Importance to be taken. Delay of Foe Important. "It is too early now to judge what effect the delaying for even four or six days of at least 60,000 Germans before Antwerp may have had upon the for tunes of battle to the southward. It was certainly powerful and helpful, apart from the military experiences. which have been invaluable. "The division have been witnesses of the ruthlessness of the German foe to- ward a small and innocent state. These facts should inspire all ranks to fit themselves in the shortest possible time for further service In the field,' not merely as fortress, but as mobile units. "The Belgian people will never for get that the men of the royal navy and royal marines were with them In their ciarkest hour of -misery, as please God, tbry may alao -be with- them -.when Belgium is restored to her own by the armies of the allies." GERMAN ADVANCE HALTED (Continued From First Page.) wireless from its Foreign Office at Berlin: "Official headquarters report that the Russians tried on October 14 to reoc cupy Lyck, but were repulsed, and that 8000 prisoners, one gun and three ma chine guns were taken. "The Germans occupied Bruges Octo ber 14 and Ostend October IS. Heavy French attacks have been repulsed northwest. "The official French statement pre tending that important progress has been made at different places on the front, for instance, near serry au Bac, northwest of Kheims, do not agree with the facts." ALLIES' LEFT PROGRESSING Paris Reports Capture of Fromella and Ypres Canal Victory. PARIS, Oct. 17. The official commu nication Issued tonight by the French War Office says: "On the front there has, been only cannonading. "On our left wing progress con tinues. The British troops -have cap tured Fromella, to the southwest of Lille. . "On the Tpres Canal to the sea our soldiers and marines have repulsed a German attapk." TJ18 report jssuea earner in mo aaf said: "In Belgium the German troops occu pying Western Belgium have not crossed the line running irom ostend to Thourout to' B-oulors, to Menin. There is relative quiet along the great er part of the front. "On our left wing there has been no change. In the region of Ypres, on the right bank of the Lys, the allied troops have occupied Fleurbalx, as well as the immediate approaches to Arraentieres. "In. the region of Arras and also in the vicinity of St. Mihlel-we have con tinued to gain ground." No Marked Change, Says Berlin. BERLIN, Oct. 17, via The Hague and London, Oct. 18. It is officially re ported that there is no marked change in the situation in France. WAR MOVES OF SATURDAY Continued From First Page.) of Poland apparently are giving the Germans trouble by organizing ma rauding parties which interfere with communications by destroying roads and bridges. Mines and the stopping of neutral steamers are causing much annoyance to neutral countries. Following the example of Germany and England, Rus sia is now sowing mines in the Baltic, while the Germans are said to have placed these dangerous machines in the Scheldt, which is Dutch water. The Adriatic also has been mined and the Italian fishing industry virtually brought to an end. The Scandinavian countries and Hoi land are the chief sufferers from the searching of neutral ships, for these ships now are being stopped by both British and German warships. Danger from the Turkish fleet has passed for the time being, these war ships having returned from the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmora. It is con sidered doubtful whether they will go out again until Turkey definitely throws in her lot with Germany, for the British Ambassador at Constantinople has de clared that the cruisers Goeben and Breslau will be considered enemy's ships as long as they are officered and manned by Germans. Turkey is keeping her army mobilized at great Cost and to the detriment of trade and commerce, which are prac tically at a standstill. Although the crops are good, famine Is feared in the Armenian provinces, and the patriar chate is sending commissions to Araer lea and other countries to collect funds for the benefit of the sufferers. . Germany, it is said, has sent money to Constantinople, but it Is considered doubtful that she will be able to supply all Turkey's wants at such a time as this. The Germans are busy rebuilding the fort sa round Antwerp. HAWLEY STAYS AT HIS POST OF DUTY Appeal for Re-election Based Only on His Record in House of Congress. AID TO OREGON IS GREAT More Than Score of His Bills, to Benefit District, Passed During Present Session, and He Sup ports Others Sincerely. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, Oct. 17. Unwilling to desert his post of duty while Congress re mains in' session. Representative Haw ley, of Oregon, is obliged to base his appeal ' for re-election to the House largely upon the record he has made as a member of that body. There are few members of the House more constant in their attendance than Mr. Hawley: few who resnond to as many roll-calls, and few who are as conscientious in the discharge of their publlo duty. When the river and harbor bill went down to defeat and the $20,000,000 lump sum substitute was passed, a total of 11,326,000, or nearly 7 per cent of the total, was allotted to projects in Mr. Hawley's district. Sundry Appropriation Secured. When the sundry civil bill was in course of preparation Mr. Hawley ap peared and urged a liberal appropria tion for Crater Lake National Park. The House passed an aporoDriatton of $75,000 for the Crater Lake roads and $8000 additional for the maintenance and administration of the park. In the Indian bill Mr. Hawley secured a total of $118,000 for the schools and reservations In his district. Mr. Hawley seoured an appropriation to continue investigations in clearing logged-off lands, another appropriation lor farm demonstration work on reclamation projects, an appropriation for investigation of the kelp beds of the Pacific Coast, and a continuation of an old appropriation for the construction of roads and trails through forest res ervations. In another bill Mr. Hawley was in strumental in getting the House to appropriate $50,000 for fish hatcheries on the Columbia River. These, with other . appropriations, make a total of more than $1,700,000 which Mr. Hawley has secured for his district during the present session of Congress. Ever since he entered Congress Mr. Hawley has worked to secure every proper consideration for the homestead er and has worked equally hard to have made available for homestead entry every acre of desirable land that - Is primarily adapted to agriculture. During the present Congress through the efforts of Mr. Hawley there have been restored to entry in Oregon many thousands of acres of lands. Many Homesteaders Aided. Many homesteaders have been aided In getting patents because of the pre sentation of their cases to the depart ment by Mr. Hawley. He has also se cured the issuance of patents to many miners who were having difficulty. Mr. Hawley has been urging the pas sage ot two bills designed to benefit the homesteader one giving the entry man the right to appe1 to the courts from the decision of the Interior D parment, and abolishing star chamber methodB in the handling ot contested cases: the other bill proposes to modify the cultivation clause of the three-year homestead law. Mr. Hawley voted for the good roads bill, the Mexican resolution, parcels post, agricultural extension, income tax. Alaska railroad bill, anti-trust bill and bills relating to labor, among others. He voted against the Underwood tariff bill, against the repeal of the free tolls clause of the Panama Canal act, and against the so-called "war tax" bill, and against some other measures that did not appeal to his sense of right and Justice. During the present session Mr. Haw ley has secured favorable action upon more than a score of his own bills. Mr. Hawley is a member of two im portant House committees, agriculture and labor. One of the hardest efforts put forth by Mr. Hawley during the present ses sion has been "in behalf of the star route service in his district. Mr. Hawley also was Instrumental In Increasing the pay of rural mall car riers. SCHOLLS FAIR SUCCEEDS Grange Display, Just Ended, Said to Be Best Ever Held There. HILLSBORO, Or.. Oct. 17 .(Special.)

UNION MEN BACK BRITAIN More Than 1,000,000 of Working Class Explain Their Altitude. LONDON, Oct. 17. The General Fed eratlon of Trade Unions, representing more than 1,000,000 trade unionists, issued today a long manifesto, ad dressed to its ' members and to affil iated bodies In America and Europe, explaining that its attitude In the pres ent crisis has not been against the British government, as has been re- Dorted In Germany and Austria. While working men deplore the war, the manifesto says, they, do not think responsibility for it rests on the con. duct of the policy of Great Britain. The document urges oo-ordination of all branches of eiistlnc charities and re lief funds to meet the distress created by the war, and declares that the funds subscribed up to the present time are inadequate. ATTACK GREAT SURPRISE (Continued From Flrrt Pge. "We never saw the submarine." said one man. "until after the explosion when something like a broomstick ap peared above the water. Crew Chiefly IrUhmen. The crew was composed for the most part of Irishmen, owing to the fact that the Hawke was stationed at Queenstown at the outbreak of the war. Still another survivor said it was Ira possible to man the guns, owing to the heavy list, though an attempt was made to do so. The captain, the com roander and a midshipman were on the bridge giving orders as calmly as if at fleet maneuvers. They disappeared when the ship took her final plunge.
