This, it Is explained, was the only foundation for the report that Great Britain bad asked the Dutch to allow British warships passage to Antwerp. <5> (By Daily News Leased Wire.) ON THR BATTLE FRONT, Oct, 0, via Paris, 11:41 p.m.—The sharp offensive movement of the Germans on the western wing of the allies nt thc Belgian frontier evidently has failed In its object of bending or breaking the French and British line. The long extension of the battle line, which now has gone beyond tire four rivers, Serre,' Somme, Oise nnd Alsne, was initiated by the allies In an endeavor to find a solution to the prob lem of ousting the Germans from their strong position in northwest France. In these positions the Germans had been besieged nearly a month, since the conclusion of the bloody battle of the»Murnc, a frontal attuck being con- eidered inexpedient by the allies. The present front Is within a"j>out Ii8 miles of AnLwerp, whore the Belgians have offered such heroic resistance to tbe bombardment of the heavy German tlllery. Reims Again Bombarded Further down toward the centre of tho line the severest fighting continues today toward Roye, whore thc alles took n large number of prisoners, Reims was again subjected to u short bombardment. In other parts of the centre the opposing forces remain constantly, alert. The eahnonude has diminished in intensity and the allied troops occupying the trenches are 'becoming thoroughly accustomed to tin- situation. Many of them spend the Intervals between spells ol rending newspapers to their comrades beneath the bombproof shelters. The allied artillerymen seem indo fatlgable, replying with vigor when ever a German cannon opens fire. The men throw themselves on the ground whon they hear the peculiar tearing noise of the enemy's shells and con- Ffiquerilly the casualties In this section are few. At night everybody Is at high tension and few noises ure heard. An occasional dull signal lamp or lantern, with Its 1'ght turned away from the German lines Indicates the nunvber of n brigade or a division occupying the position and permits a despatch rider «n a motor cycle to find his way along lhe rear to the commanding officers. All around the air is full of dust and 'sand thrown up iby shell splinters, while tho odor of the explosives Is intense. British Whisper—No Bugles Thc French and Germans still generally utilizo bugle ■ enlls and when Ihey are heard Boarchllghts are Immediately flushed out. Tbe British commands, however, ure whispered ulong the trenches from mouth to mouth so that even in the silence of the night no sound renches the ears of the Germans in their trenches not fnr away and no indication Is given of any proposed move or attack until it Is in full swing. On the east the fighting Is still fierce around St. Mlhiel, with many night attacks. The Germans are extremely clever In constructing blind trenches, against which the nllles* fire is often directed, while the Germans actually ore posted somo distance aiway In other trenches, from which they can pour in an enfilading firo. The Germans often deliver attacks in force, generally just after dusk or before dawn, but heretofore whenever 'they have come into hand to hand conflicts with the French the Invaders always have been forced bad*.

Dayton, Chairman Canadian Railway Board, Makes Observation on Business Situation (By Dally News Leasea Wire.) OTTAWA, Oct. 9.—H. U Dayton. K.O., chairman of the railroad commission, has arrived home from Kngland, where he has iheen since before e outbreak of the war. He arrived ■sterday on the Laconla, after two iHuecessful attempts lo get over on other boats. While In Kngland he rendered as- BlBtance to Hon, George H. Perley, [■ting high commissioner, in assisting. Canadians stranded In Europe us the result of the war to return home or i) places of safety. Although thc majority of Canadians re now safe and at home, there are 7 parties still In thc countries engag- il in the war and efforts ure being made to help them ns well. It Is ex- cted they will leave the continent fely. There la still a big rush for America, which will -be over by the middle of this month, according to Mr. Drayton. He first boarded the Alau- tion Sept. 21 but she was taken by the government. He was on the Calgarlan to sail on Sept. 25 but she also was taken. "Business conditions in Britain arc not bad," said Mr. Drayton. "Tbe aspect In London now is similar to the aspect In times of peace. The only differences In the day time are the presence of soldiers and the marching through the streets of large numbers of recruits from the parade grounds to the points where they are stationed. "There Is a difference at night, however. The street lighting and the display shop lighting is different to what It is In times of peace. Some of the street lamps are out entirely, others are dimmed and there are no sky signs or display lights at all. This, you know. Is to lesson the possibility of attack by air craft at night." Speaking on, the outibreak of the war, Mr. Drayton confirms the reports that there was no panic In Kngland nt that time or at uny time since. For l while there was considerable rid- ance in the price of foodstuffs and there wns considerable hoarding of supplies noticed. "Happily, this Btate of affairs only tasted a short time and prices became normal again and food supplies arc now plentiful. This happy condition of affairs is largely contributed to by Canada's gift of flour and other gifts of supplies from the respective provinces of this country." 0 TWO TRENCH AVIATORS KILLED—ONE PRISONER (By Dally News Leased Wire.)

HAS CONTINENTAL DEFENSIVE PLAN New Yorker Thinks Organization Should Be Formed to Protect North and South America. (By Dally News Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, Oct. 9.—A conference is likely to be called of representatives of all the nations of North and South America to form a league for peace. Is the opinion of John A. Stewart of New York, chairman of the executive committee of the United States Peace Centenary association, who is in Ottawa today conferring with the Canadian representatives. The purpose of the league, he declared, would he to bring about the respect of each nation for the territorial integrity of the others and to unite all against territorial aggrandisement by an outside nation. "Apart from our -neutrality," said Mr. Stewart, "and without particular regard to nny given outcome of ttTe war. tho war itself has served to urge on the people of the United States the ncceplance of a duty In the dirction of safeguarding the interest collective ly of tho nattonB of the western hemisphere. I am advising the calling of an international conference at Washington for the purnose of organizing under agreement a league of peace. "The alliances among the two groups of European nations have shown us one phase of international association—thnt, of defensive and offensive coirtracturul obligations. The result of such contracts would seem clearly to imnel us as people of tlie western hemisphere to organize not i'. league for purposes of war but a league for purposes of neace nnd for peaceful commercial, political and social life." The nations of the western hem's- ptiftro. Mr. Stewart believes, might well bind themselves in an alliance the underlying motive of which should lie in the extension nf the fundamental principle of the Rush-Begot agreement tn all notions of the western hemis- "here, This would obligate each nation to respect the territorial Inteeritv ot every other nation and would be an alliance for defense only In the degree to which some nation outside the western hemisphere might make an attempt at territorial aggrandise*, ment in that hemisphere. Canada, says Mr. Stewart, should hy all means be Included In such an understanding. He stated that the celebration of the peace centenary would be carried out in its entirety, as planney, except that the date might be changed in some cases. The religious celebration will be on Sundav, Feb. 14. GERMAN HEADQUARTERS NEARER TO BATTLE LINE (By Dally Nows Leased Wire.)

WILL CONTINUE WORK FL0G THEIR SAILORS Tho following Is from, the office of tlie .commissioner of the international inatltuto of agriculture, Ottawa: "It is indeed fortunate for the institute- that Italy's neutrality permits of the continuation of the institute's work at Rome. The office of the commissioner for Canada has just been advised that all the employes are at tBeir posts, excepting those who had been called away t0 their respective armies; While it is difficult to continue with all the regular pro-' gram the institute will make use or this period of enforced semi-activity to complete the several preparatory and theoretic studies connected with the work of the several divisions which it was difficult to find time to carry out when all the regular dynamic work was in full swing but which am nevertheless essential for the future development of the program, "This view is borne out by fl statement recently made to the institute staff by the general secretary, Dr. G. Lorenssonl. Among other things Dr. Lorenzonl states: "As a result of tho war between several of the countries adhering to th*; International Institute of Agriculture 18 members of the staff have already been recalled to their regiments. Four other persons are unable to return from their vocations and several others may be recalled in a short time, "Many reviews have suspended or will suspend their publication, and it Is probable that the manuscript data which the governments were in the habit, of sending to tlie institute will b^ reduced In number or will not come at. all in the case of certain countries for a considerable time to come. "This state of things makes the work of the institute more difficult, but, on the other hand, It is moat essential that the Institute continfie to work and to make Itself of use to the nations within tho limits of possibility oven during the present difficulties. "It is therefore necessary that the employes who can remain at their posts fulfil their duties with the utmost energy and tho best good will and be prepared to pass, if necessary, from one division to another. There will 'be no lack of work, for if it be found difficult to bring out tlie periodical publications with their usual number of pages, it will, nevertheless, be possible to draw up the monographs, year hooks and to keep tlie documentation up to date. "Thero must therefore be no falling orf in the work of the staff, which should, on the contrary, display more •zeal than over and adhere yet more strictly to discipline. Another thing which becomes more than ever necessary is to persevere In the spirit of serenity, fraternity and good comradeship which has always prevailed in thc Institute between the employes oi tiie different nationalities. "All the employes of tho institute are called upon to conform strictly and willingly to these instructions, to remain calm; disciplined and diligent, for on the attitude of.Uiu^tufT.vIU depend the satisfactory working of the Institute under the present circumstances, just as tho good reputation and the very life of the institute will depend on tlie work It continues to produce. "Up to the present time tho three monthly institute bulletins havo been received as usual and enaible the Canadian commissioner to continue the regular publication of the bulletin of foreign agricultural intelligence." * THE KING'S HIGHWAY (Henry Nowlbolt In London Times.)

NOT CONFIRMED iContinued from Pace One.1 •\V-* THE THREATENED CITY. Antwerp which is today threatened with capture hy the Germans, If It has not already fallen, was until the outbreak of the war one of the most prosperous cities of tlie world. Situated on the Scheldt river, about 2? miles from its mouth, it lias been developed by the Belgian government into an important shipping centre. Vessels with a tonnage of 11,000,(100 visit the port each year and in addition another 5,000,000 tons reach tiie city by rail and canal from the Interior each year. The city's commercial prosperity dates back to thc eleventh century. Following the middle of the sixteenth century It was recognized as the largest seaport and the richest city In tho north and northwest of Europe and was the money market of the European princes. Thc city suffered through the occupation of Flanders by tlie Duke of Alva during the days of the reformation, but prosperity later returned. The city's present day importance, however, dates from 180::, up to when the Dutch levied tolls on all shipping coining up tlie Scheldt to Antwerp. In tlie year mentioned, however, the city bought back this right from Holland and Its growth has since been rapid and substantial. Thc population of tbo city in 1900 was 272,851, a f!g- uro to which the last 11 years had added considerably previous to the outbreak of the war. In addition to Its importance as a shipping centre, Antwerp had developed greatly in recent years industrially. It was tlie centre or tiie diamond cutting Industry, whllo other lines of activity included wool-washing, sulphur refining, brewing, distilling, shipbuilding and the manufactun of candles, wax-cloth, etc. It is credited as being one of the must strongly fortified places In Europe.

PRIZE MONEY TD BE DIVIDED AMONG FLEET All naval prize money will be pooled and taken over by the government, who, after deducting a small percentage, will divide the remainder among the fleet as a whole. Formerly this money was divided among the officers and crew of tlie Bhip capturing the prize, and^ as it was alleged that certain* favored ships were placed on the great trade routes and were able to capture valuable prizes, the system caused great dissatisfaction.' The new system is sound in equity and will remove all cause of complaint. Prize money must, however, be distinguished from prize bounty. Prize money applies only to the capture of trading or passenger ships and not to the enp- litre or sinking of wurshfps. In tlie case of warships captured or sunk tho fortunate officers and men will receive so much for every man on board tlie enemy's vessel at the time of disablement. The exact amount, we believe, -has yet to be decided, as has the method of distribution. If, for example, there are 500 men on a captured or sunken warship, and it is decided to pay £5 per bend for every officer and man on board, the gallant men on the -victorious vessel will receive £2,.-.00, less some 4 or 5 per cent which the government would deduct. This amount would he divided In accordance with the different ratings on board. In the case of the sinking of the Kaiser Willielm der Grosse by the Highflyer there will be no difficulty about the distribution, as the number of men on board Is known and there is no question as to which vessel sunk tho armed liner. A prize court will, however, have to decide upon the merits and amounts involved in tlie engagement In tho Heligoland bight, as it is obvious that there must be a vast difference of opinion as to which vessel did the most execution among the German cruisers and destroyers. One fact appears certain, and that is, that while in past wnrs the men of the fleet received the largest sums from the distribution of prize money, iu the present war it Is certain (bey will receive tho most from prize bounties. oven.

EDMONTON1, Alta., Oct. 9.—There are -0,000,000 acres of unused land in the province of Alberta and the greater portion of this will be affected by the surtax which the provincial government proposes to place on land of this character, in order to supplement the revenues which have shrunk by about $300,000 or $400,000 since the beginning of tlie war. An amendment to the Towns act will bo introduced In the provincial legislature next week by which towns during the next four years will have the option of partially departing from tbo principle of single tax and being given tlie privilege ot imposing a business tax. The lilll to tax "wild lands" will not only mark an Important departure In the way of taxation but is calculated to be of considerable assistance In eliminating to a great extent the holding of land for speculative purposes and thus giving n considerable impetus to the agricultural development of the province. Tho nmount ot the "wild" or unused land in the province is not accurately known, but it Is thought to be in the neighborhood or 20.000,000 acres, A good deal of this is Canadian' Pacific railway land and Is not taxable, but the greater part of it will come under the scope of the bill. U ffi expected that there will be a savims clause In tlie bill fnr the exemption of land on which cattle nre placed on the land in lieu of cultivation.

We cannot all go forth to fight on the blood-stained fields of France and Belgium, but it is within everyone s power to help crush the monster that threatens Europe. Modern warfare is a battle of resources, financial resources most of all. Every dollar you spend for goods "Made in Canada" is increasing the wealth, the resources, of the Empire, it is giving employment to Canadian workmen, it is contributing to Canada's welfare, and it is supplying the sinews of war to Britain, it is helping to fight the enemy.

The school population of the district has Increased so rapidly that the present building is quite Inadequate and further accommodation of some kind is needed. The trustees have been able to provide means sufficient to commence what would be the nucleus of a permanent school building of such kind as will undoubtedly bo needed in the not distant, future in view of the steady growth of the district. The question will ho referred to the residents whether a beginning shall be made now on a comprehensive plan of this kind rather than continuing to extend the present building which, It Is asserted, can only be considered as a temporary and rather wasteful measure of relief. The present is considered by those interested in many respects an opportune time to undertake a permanent building. » •> <? * • AT THE THEATRES <• At the Gem theatre tonight ,a program of unusual interest is being shown consisting or lhe famonr Hearst-Sellg News Pictorial depletinr lhe terrible flight of, ihe women from Belgrade when thp Austrians simile,* the olfry.

TRADE DECLINES LITTLE IN BRITAIN Returns Show Surprisingly Small Falling Off Since War—But Cotton Suffers Severely. (Hy Dally News Leased Wire.) LONDON1. Oct. !).—Fuller trade returns Issued here make clear that there is surprisingly little decline from the war. Trade today is In many ways better than in 1004, One trnde which continues to suffer severely Is cotton. Sir Charles McAra, president of the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners, says the complete closing of the Lancashire mills In a short time is certain, owing to the uncertainty of price caused by the excess of surplus cotton on the market. He urges the governments ot tills country and the United States jointly to create a fe- servo of raw cotton not required and thus secure the position of the planter, ensure a continuity of supply and establish a permanent basis of prices. Use Egyptian Cotton First (By Dally News Loused Wire.) WASH1NGT< i.N, Oct. II.—Acting Secretary of State Lansing and Sir Cecil Spring-ttlce, British ambassador, discussed toduy the possibility of hi-- creasing the shipments of American cotton to Europe. The ambassador, threw some light upon the subject by pointing but that the war had greatly reduced the d< mand for cotton goods, so that the great Lancashire factories were closing up or running on reduced scale, lint the principal obstacle In the way of normal importations of American cotton, he said, tay in the obligation upon Great Britain to consume as far as possible the Egyptian cotton crop In order to prevent Just such a,depression In Egypt as now exists In the southern states. All of the great German and Austrian and even French mills are practically closed to , tho Egyptian product by the war, he said. .
