PND LONDON. Oct. 21..-Although tho big guns used by tho Germans have been the surprise of tho war and are accredited with having caused the fall of l.legc, Nanutr nnd Antwerp, some military experts In England question the wisdom of carrying such woapons Into the field, regarding them as u bunion which an army (annot afford lo transport. Colonel K. N. Maude, disclosing tho henvy guns, says In The Stand ard: "It would be Interesting to obtain the exact facts and calculate wha; the policy of taking tho 4" centime ter nnd 2S centimeter howitzers Into the field really cost the Gcrmnns In loss ir transport power for the food of the troops. I am willing to giant that the -12 centimeter weapon was admirably adapted lor its purpose of dslroylng steel and concrete targets presented by the forts of Liege and Nainur. Out seeing that the weight of one of ttio shells is nearly equal to the weight of a whole square meal for one of their battalions, would not the available horsepower, wheth er mechanical or actual, have been far better employed In hauling food for men to the front In the first in stance?" Military exports writing for the English prccs say that big guns are not really a noelty. The new fea ture is their general uso In the re cent campaigns. Heavy guns were tried In the Eranco-Prusslan war over much the same territory where recent fighting has taken place, hut their movement was found too much of a burden. England has constructed a more formidable weapon than the German howitzer. It is Mallet's mortar, which was built for use In tho Cri mea war but not completed In lime to go Into tho siege. The mortar Is now at Woollch arsenal. It was built in sections for transport nnd has a 3C Inch bore and a bursting power charge of S50 pounds of gun powder. It was tested at Plumstead marshes and a shell sent with n full powder charge penetrated IS feot and blew out a crater CO feet In dia meter. AT AMSTECOAM, via London. Oct. 20, 4:10 a. in. According to an Ant werp telegram to the Chonania Transport company of Mannrelm, some of the ships sunk in the port of Antwerp by tho troops of tho al lies hnvo been raised nnd tho river Is csnln nnvignblc.

LONDON, Oct. 20, 8:0. a. m Eight airships passed over llassclt, on tho Germau-liclglan frontier, go ing westward, and evidently making for Ilrussols and Antwerp, where it has previously been stated Zeppelin uheds were being coiibtrurted, ac cording to a Ilottordam dispatrh to the Daily Mall, RELIEVE YOUR ASTHMA IN FIFTEEN MINUTES If Asthmador docs not instantly re lieve the very worst attacks of Asthma, Bronchial Asthma and the Asthmatic symptoms accompanying Hay Fever, wc authorize the druggist listed below to return your money.

Uooth the conservative candidate for senator spoke to an nudleuce of 700 people In Vlnlni; Theater Wednesday evening, lie was Introduced by George W. Dunn and tit the close of tho address E. V. Car ter offered a fow words of emtmr UKOmcnt to the candidate and asked him to stnnd In front of the theater entrance and shake hands with tho nudleuce us It was passing out. Cun ning through the remarks of both Mr. Dunn nnd Uooth was a note of pessimism and calamity and tear and the evening rcemed to bring them to no other conclusion than to turn hack to something In tho past. Mr. llooth went Into an ev - tended discussion of the business methods of the lUioth-I-elly '.umber company, then Into a discussion of the tariff and cloed wah an at tempt nt word painting of conditions as he would like to see them. Krom start to finish tho address disclosed the speaker's limited ca pacity. ills tariff talk was that of 20 years ago and completely out of tuno with the views of McKlnley o- pressed In his Buffalo sooch and It fiiwuiti. prompt mc the oonooetion was even out of dnto with the fra- "'' ."J"'1' Wlil'' tliinh. as 'Veil" miir mors of the Aldrldge revision upwnrd '" ""' Im,m' Hv,, " ih'imturiil type of thought that wrecked thoi ,M' "'oohol Unvoted with oil of pen- protective party in this country.
