Tlu- Herman cavalry have occupied Brussels, Tii,' official announcement was made tonight Strong columns are following un this move. The llelgian army is retiring on Antwerp without having been engaged hy the Germans. Along with the announcement of the fall of Brussels the official statement says: "Our troops have met with brilliant success in Alsace, especially between Mulhausen and Altkirch. The Hermans retreating on the Rhine, left in our hands many Germans and 24 guns, six of which were captured by our infantry after a sharp struggle. "In Lorraine, the day was less fortunate for us. Our advanced troops 'mind themselves faced by exceptionally strong positions. They were forced by a counter attack to fall back in a body, which is solidly established on ���the Sellle and along the canal from the Murne to the Rhine. 1 A French Aeronaut Works Havoc on German Flying Machines. London. rAug. 20.-11:45 p.m- Adolphe I'eguod, a noud French aviator, has returned to Paris from the war sone to get a new aeroplane. According to a Paris despatch to the Exchange Telegraph company the wings of Piguod's old machine were riddled by bullets and two shells, when he made, with a military ob- | server, a flight of 300 kilometers | 1186 miles) in German territory. He could not say Just where he had been, except that he had traversed the Rhine district for many miles.

"Waiting for development-" was the reply made by a mllltla officer to a query last night as to what date and time the overseas contingent would be leaving for Valcartier. No Intimation was received from the brigade headquarters yesterday as to any possible date of departure and the local regimental officers are as much in the dark as the rank and file as to when the order will be received to entrain. That the receipt of such information will be a relief to the entire contingent was very apparent at the park yesterday, all of tbe volunteers appearing to be curbing their restlessness at the delay of entrain- menl orders.

"Austrian cavalry which entered Russian Poland at Klelce, Rijbnlza and other points." says the communication, "were driven back with great loss, while Austrian infantry which attacked Klasnlk was defeated and lost heavily. The Russians took 250 prisoners. On the Prussian border the Russians took the offensive near Windballen, captured l.yk, and took eight German guns and two quick- firers."

Tho statement, credited to au anonymous member of tlie Belgian cabinet. is U follows: "The Belgian army has not sufficient cavalry to engage or resist the VRjt curtain of German horsemen which covers the two hank" of the river Meuse and which Is advancing towards Brussels, The capita, was exposed to a sudden raid, and It was simple prudence to retire. LOSS OF BRUSSELS NOT IMPORTANT. Paris. Aug. 20.���An explanation of the Belgian field army's backward movement towards Antwerp was given tonight in the following cablegram from London, made public by the British embassy: "The Belgian field army being on Antwerp, has fallen back In that direction In order to cover Its communication withthAt fortress. In anticipation that this might become necessary, the seat of government had already been transferred from Brussels to Antwerp. As Brussels Is an undefended city and no longer the seat of government, the fact that the Germans may have entered It Is not of great importance. Moreover, tbe present position of the flflRlan field army is a menace to the right flank of any further German advance westward." PRUSSIAN CAVALRY ACTIVE. Ghent, Belgium, Aug. .0 -By Martin II. Donohue The Prussian cav- airy this morning was very active along the whole front of the allies, small bodies of Uhlans have been cloning around Brussels and also In the neighborhood of Malines, 1_ miles northeast of Brussels. My information does not enable me to say whether Malines is still occupied by the Belgians. A Herman aeroplane flew over Brussels this morning and was seen at Ghent just as I was leaving for the coast. The censor has here evidently deleted the words, "the German cavalry entered Brussels." They met with no resistance, in accordance with instructions from the Belgian authorities They were, however, coldly rceived. Tlle streets were deserted and some persons manifested their grief by draping the national flag with black. Late last night the main road from Louvain towards Brussels was packed with retreating soldiers and refugees. AN ARMY OF HOMELE8S REFUGEES. Everywhere people had turned light carts- into account. To some of these were harnessed teams of dogs, which one sees everywhere In Fland- PS, Others had attached horses and when animal traction failed, some had harnessed themselves to vehicles and were laboriously tolling toward succor, dragging carts, laden with the aged and infirm or weeping mothers, with young children and babies in arms. I conversed with many of these homeless ones, both on the side of the toad to Brussels and this morning In Ghent. One man whom iVsme across .aid that lie lived Just outside of Louvain and had been working in the fields unaware nf the presence of the Germans. He turned around and saw his house ln flames and heard the cries of the Uhlans. It was impossible for him to approach bis home, so In- fled in complete ignorance of the fate of his wifo and family. .mormons Prussian frrces were flung against the weak points of the line at Louvain. Talking with a French officers west of Wavre on Tuesday I was informed that 11 was estimated that a force composed of two or three German army corps waa moving through at any cost. The Advance of this huge force was covered hy an immense envalry Bcreen. It v as this advance cavalry with which the Krench and Belgians ��� ere s;. hotly engaged all day Tuesday. The allied cavalry, pursuing the retreating Germans far beyond the advance posts of the allies, suddenly discovered the presence of a large army. There was nothing to It but to fall back rapidly nnd this was accomplished in good order and with practically no loss. The main German advance ove* a front of about thirty miles appears to have begun at daylight yesterday. At li o'clock In the morning I reached an advance post. anticipating from some of the operations of the previous day that I was ahout to witness the first great battle of the war. LARGE BODIES OF GERMAN TROOPS. 1 then found that during the night the situation had changed completely, as it very often does in war. The pickets of the allied cavalry had been driven In by the German cavalry. They were sent to reconnoiter and relumed with the Information that they bad come In contact with large bodies of Germans moving by routes parallel with the Belgian-French lines. The lirst of the Invaders was encountered at West. This place which heroically resisted them last week, was fiercely attacked. The old forts and the water moat which are at the north formed but a weak protection from the heavy lire of thc Germans. Shell fire soon rendered tho defences untenable and thn garrison retired, evacuating the town. The Germans then advanced cautiously. The Belgian cavalry which was covering tho rear guard, had several brushes with their foes, which repeatedly sought to cut them off. The Impetuosity of the Belgians led to their charging the foe and Incurring gr.a' loss. FRENCH AGAIN OCCUPY MULHAUSEN. London, Aug. 21.-1:20 a.m.���Thc Germans have at last occupied Brussels, but in Alsace they seem to be making no advance. The latest report is that the Krench have re-occupied Mulhnusen, and it still seems true that after 15 days of fighting there are no German troops on French soil. On Germany's eastern frontier there has been considerable outpost fighting, which would Indicate that, the Russians are completing their work of concentration. There lias heen no serious collision in thlg region us yet, however. Austria ls too much engaged with Husilu and with the need of helping Germany to make inil.li progress lu her war campaign against Servia. No news has heen received of any naval movements, either in the North Sea or thn Mediterranean, CONCLAVE TO MAKE APPEAL FOR PEACE. The death of Pope Pius X will be made tho occasion for another effort, to bring about pence. It Is said that when thc conelave meets In Home to oleot a now pope It will send an appeal to the warring nations for pence and will ask the United States to aid In bringing nboul tranquility. According to a few Items of news which have been allowed to come in from Berlin, something like normal conditions prevail in the German capital. The price of food is declining nnd the troops movement has been completed.. A general resumpton of general work on railroads is beginning. Confirmation has been received of the report that Kmperor William has ordered resistance to any effort that .Inpan may make lo seize Klao-Chow.

Strike relief was stopped by the union six weeks ago and realizing the futility of continuing the struggle without financial assistance, the men by a large majority, voted last night to call the strike off. As the mines of the district are working full force, but few ot the striking miners will be able to secure employment and will be compelled to leave the city and seek work elsewhere. London.

Canned fruits are increased from _U to 2V& cents under the general Ottawa, Aug. 20��� Canada's war tax will fall principally upon coffee, sugar, spiriu. and tobacco.

This money will be raised partially by increased customs and excise duties on the articles mentioned. The government has already borrowed $25,000,000 by the issue of June, which leaves a balance of $43,500,000 to be raised. Mr. White stated that, owing to the Franco-Canadian treaty, no increased duty could be placed on wines and champagnes. The estimated increase In revenue for cigars, cigarettes aud tobacco is |_W.0M. The increased excise revenue for the present fiscal year Is estimated at about $7,000.0��0. The changes In the taxation of liquor become effective from August 7. No Serious Criticism There was no serious criticism of the government's proposals on the part of the opposition. A. K.

BURNABY WILL OBJECT TO C. N. BRIDGE PLANS Claim Specifications Are Inadequate for Requirement of Slipping on the Fraser. The Burnaby board of trade is to protest the erection of the proposed bridge across the north arm of the Kraser for the Canadian Northern railway, claiming that the specifications and plans are inadequate to the needs of the river for shipping purposes. It Is claimed that the swing span is much to small and would interfere with river traffic. The recent turning down of the money bylaw by the municipal council to assist the harbor commission ln the work of preparing preliminary' plans of the river may lead to a difficulty in backing up this protest, the plans of the new bridge havin- to come before the harbor commission which is viewing the recent action of Burnaby In none to pleasant terms. ed to the roster from Maillardville, which brought up yesterday's enlistments to about 50. At the present speed the regiment should be at full strength after the overseas boys leave. Contrary to previous arrangements, the troops going to Valcartier will travel in the new scarlet and blue uniforms instead of the service suits. This is being done in order that the khaki uniforms can be kept for the recruits now enlisting, a special uniform being provided the overseas contingent on their arrival at Quebec.

FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 21, 1914. THE RIGHT SPIRIT. The spirit which is animating the British manufacturers, and is causing the re-openlng of the big factories at full blast to turn out the products with which to capture German and Austrian world-trade Is the same spirit which back".! Nelson at Trafalgar, Wellington at Waterloo and a thousand other British lomiiianders in a thousand other battles In many climes. Britain was dragged into the present war reluctantly; she held out for peace till she could no longer refrain from striking and preserve her honor, hut DO* that she has engaged In the conflict it is to be fought to the end till there w ill be no question of doubt as to which way the victory goes. The war Is costing Great Britain millions every day, it disrupts her commerce at the start, but, thanks to the fleet, that commerce now can be safely taken up again and to pay the country for the loss which Germany and Austria have forced upon it, British manufacturers are planning to capture Herman and Austrian trade. The manufacturers and merchants of the motherland have set thc example to the colonies and Canada should not be backward in following. The Dominion has Immense resources out of which she can send large supplies lo the continuent of Kurope as well as to the "tight little Island" and in a few weeks, when trade conditions are thoroughly readjusted to wartime conditions, there should be no hold-back to Canadian activity. Germany and Austria cannot buy from Canada, but Russia, France, Belgium, Holland. Denmark, Sweden, Spain and Portugal can and the supplies which they cannot now get from the two warring nations of the Triple Alliance may, in many cases, be shipped from the Dominion. Such new business is bound to make itself felt In conditions here and, while there Is a noticeable stringency at present, it looks as though. In spite ol thc war. there were good times ahead. THEY OVERLOOK THE CAUSE. German interests in the I'nited States, which find voice through the Herman American society, are loud these days in denunciation of the view taken by a large section of the American press of the present war in Europe. The chief complaint seems to be that the bulk of the American newspapers are plainly impressed with the righteousness of the cause fOT which Great Britain aud hei friends in the Triple Entente are fighting. German interests have overlooked the fact tiiat in a nation of businessmen such as the American people, respect for contracts and agreements is essential to honorable success. The German view that the end justifies the means and that ultimate victory will cast a cloud of forgetfulness over broken faith does not go on this side of the water. The treaties covering the neutrality of Luxemburg and Belgium were business agreements between the powers. Grmany signed these contracts and At the first opportunity she broke her word. Naturally the Americans wonder it, when Germany is so ready to break her faith with England, she would consider it worth while to keep faith with the United States or any other nation if it suited hei interests to do otherwise. though for a time in diminished quantities, a fair proportion of Britain's available capital will come to Canada for investment. Under the circumstances, therefore, the one gi tat essential to keep business moving is confidence, and Canada, probably of all nations of the world, has least excuse to offer for any lack of lt. "In the unprecedented and critical situation that exists," says Sir George I'.usb, "n is of the greatest Importance that everyone should endeavor to act as if great events were not Impending. Were confidence seriously disturbed, business would come practically to an end, and our ability to face tho difficulties thut may be in front of us would be seriously Impaired. Therefore, It is of vital Importance that, as far as possible, the events that arc now taking place should not interfere with ihe daily life and the daily work of the nation. Orders should be given, factories should be run. aud everything should be arranged to maintain, as fur as possible, the productive power and the income of thc country. "Hut for this to be accomplished, the situation mu.t be faced with courage and confidence on the part of everyone. Investors must continue to invest, bankers must continue to lend, the stock exchange must continue to deal, and every one according to his ability musl endeavor to work hard In order that individual incomes, and thrreforc the income of thc whole nation, may be maintained at the highest possible level. "A little over a century ago, when the nation was at war with Napoleon, its income was a very small one, being less than one-eighth of what it is nt present, and in a comparatively small space of time tbe British people succeded In raising about ��1.0tifl.UOO,-. 0 of money for war purposes, and so great was their confidence and courage that at the end of the great war, which severely taxed thell' resources, they were stronger and wealthier than they hud been at the beginning." Canada's natural store is ns yet barely touched, .'rom any temporary lull in our progress, from whatever cause, we can. therefore, recover our- selves more quickly than did the motherland nfter lier world struggle of a century ago, if our people are of the same heart and industry, and we are confident they are. Courage in the light for tlle empire is not more necessary than courage In the maintenance of the Industry and commerce of the country."���Kinanci.il Post. |date until further orders. This order Is said to be due to the fact that de spite the ravages made on the schools 1 by the American traps, the regulations |on the Fraser have allowed an adequate number of salmon to pass up !the river to the spawning grounds. The news of a continuation of the sockeye season will no doubt he pleas ant to the fishermen. Smull supplltv of sockeyes are still available for the canneries on Puget Sound, the Bellingham correspondent vesterday reporting the receipt of .Olio fish. Anacortes did not lift the traps but will probabl* do so today. Keceipts on tlie main river and the North Arm ran about 1500 sockeyes per cannery while boats delivering up river aud at Canoe Pass averaged 1000 fish. Very little more will be done this week although fair returns are expected Sunday night after the weekly closed season. SPORTS CUV.!.

The right of Burnaby municipality to sell water to South Vancouver cropped up again yesterday morning at Edmonds when .Mayor Baxter and Alderman Klrkpatrlok of the Vancouver city council held an interview with the Hurnaby council. Little progress was made on the matter, Hurnaby refusing all overtures to make a settlement and resting on their oars, claiming every right to sell water to berl sister municipality even though il was brought from Capllano through Van couver mains. TENNIS RESULTS With the close approach of the finals, the tennis tourney being run off by the Westminster Tennis club on the Royal avenue grounds is becoming more Interesting, yesterday's mimes especially displaying a few surprises.

SOCKEYE SEASON WRl BE EXTENDED Why Canada Should Be Confident In view of the events taking place | in Europe, which will constitute an epoch of perhaps unprecedented lm- I portance ln history, we appeal strong-1 ly to all Canadian business men and all who hold securities or investments j of any kind to meet the preseni situation with calmness and confidence. Our first duty, at any cost, is to aid in Great Britain's sustenance and defence, and our next duty, not less important, is to keep the business of the Dominion moving ns normally as possible. . Let it be remembered that while we must lay aside something to pay our share of the cost of war, we have at our back storehouses of natural wealth scarcely yet touched. As the calamities of Europe place a higher value on our wheat and other exportable crops, so will the same calamities-tlie result of militarism and conscription���make the peaceful land of Canada more attractive to some of the best people of Europe whose hopes and lands, generation after generation, have .een despoiled or devastated by war. At the present instant Canada stands practically Immune from the physical menace of war; our fields are giving their wealth to the harvester, and our other re- | sources are yielding their bounty in j greater proportions than ever. Wealth production is proceeding, and the I opportunities for still greater primary production are not diminishing. This ; continent, including Canada, will pro- ! lit largely and speedily by the changes I in the world's currents of trade dur- i ing the war. Many of our factorie.. | will find demands upon them stlmu- luted because of restriction placed I upon the productive machinery of j Europe by the exigencies of war, and Fishing in the Fraser River Will Be Allowed After Aug. 25���A Boon to River Fishermen. Announcement was made yesterday morning lhat sockeye salmon fishing, which under ordinary circumstances would have closed automatically on Aug. _5, is to be continued after that London, Aug. 20. 7:50 p.m. The Prlnc<- of Wales ut the head of a detachment of Grenadier (luurds. marched through the streets of Uindon to day's events are as follows: Yesterday's Results.

KTAI.I.ri'ONl-N A town of about eight thousand inhabitants In Eastern Prussia, sis. miles from the Russian border, where e lone of Germans are reportad to have de- rented a detachment of Russians, capturing one thousand men and several guns. Had tha Russians made good their advance on Stailu- ponen, it would have given them control of two railway lines converging [hero, whicli connect with Insterburg and Tilsit, the former an important city of the Prussian province of Gumblmion and the latter a distributing point by rail nnd water on the river Miomen, Tilsit and Insterburg tn the hands of the Russians would have opened a way for Bdvanoe on tlie great (Ierman Fortress of KdfilRSberg, about one hundred miles from the Russian frontier on the Baltic sen. Sliiliu- ponen is practically nt the height of land on the German-Russian border. From this region the country falls ot fioward the Baltic and Is plentifully drained by small rivers. AMENEZ- -Correct spelling, Kam- enet?.. a smnll town in the Russian province of Smolensk, situated at nn altitude of about eight hundred feet, where the Russians are reported to .have repulsed the Austrians with heavy losses after a prolonged engagement. The dispatch bearing this news is misleading, since, if the Austrians are nt Kameiietz, it would mean that t'.iey have succeeded In penetrating Husslan territory a distance of almost four hundred miles, which is obviously Impossible, it is more likely that the reported engagement took place near l-Uininiets Podolsk, a Itussian city about nine miles from the Austrian bolder, and the capital of the Russian province of Podolia, This would appear more probable, as the Russians already have fought several engagements in this neighborhood, both on their own and the Austrl-I en side of the frontier. Kamlnletz i Podolsk also is close to the river Dniester, along which the csar's forces have been moving in largo numbers. HOLLAND In the present war Holland occupies a peculiar position. As a nation, the Dutch are to say the least, not friendly to the tier- minis. The court Of Holland, however, occupies a different position. Queen Wlthelmlna In 1901 married Henry, Duke of Mecklenburg, a German to the core. Again, the Dutch nre ancient friends of Great Hritain and ancient enemies of llel- gium. there having been actual fighting between the Dutch and Belgians as recently as IS.4. In the present crisis, however, thc queen's consort. Prince Henry, who formerly held n high post in the German army, is said to be standing nloof. for which exhibition of tart he Is receiving the commendation of the Dutch and the curses of his former brothers-in-anns. The German invasion of Belgium has brought the kaiser's forces close to the Dutch border, which, in fact, they have crossed several times and the Dutch are beginning to lcok with considerable apprehension on the German plans for the capture of Antwerp. Should the Germans occupy this strongly fortified Belgian c'ly, it would give Ihem control of th(> shipping of the Scheide, which is partly a Dutch waterway. What course Holland will pursue Is being awaited impatiently in Europe, though it is not thought the inherent conimonsense of t'.ie Dutch and their well known good feeling towards Great Britain will permit them to hold out any offers of assistance, whether passive or active, to the kaiser.
