CALLED "DEATH IN HAYSTACKS"
Belgian Soldier Thus Describes Way
Wounded Germans Were, Piled

Dead.
(Copyright, 1914, Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON. Aug. ll.-tSpeclal Cablegram
to New York World and Omaha Bee.)
Despatches and advices received from
Belgium are unanimous In describing the
repulse of 4 he Germans in their attack
upon Liege on Friday as a carnage.
The correspondent of The Times in a
letter mailed from Brussels tells what
he had learned through personal Inter-
views with Germsn prisoners and,
wounded men men and officers, who of
both pldcs, have been brought to Brus
sels. lie says that when the' German army
first advanced upon Liege the officers
believed that the sole task before them
waathat of pouring in a continuous fire
that would wipo out all . Belgian opposi
tion. But with the men in the ranks the
situation was otherwise. ,.
The German soldiers, lie says, were J
wish to be at the front . aad acaroely
realized why they were there. They had
already heard terrible talea of multitudes
of Cossacks who were prepared to enter
upon Germsny and devour It, and they
were frightened at the prospect of the
great war.
"Incredible as It may seein," writes
the Times correspondent, "these
unhappy Germans sre marched straight
to death almost, shoulder to shoulder
The Napoleonlo tactics of the sudden ap
plication of overwhelming masses of men
to achieve a desired victory or reach a
certain objective point seem to have In
spired the German generals. Apparently
they hoped to sstlsfy the greed of the
Euns In the forts by a holocaust of vic
tims." . -
The result of thla policy, he cays, was
a terrific slaughter among the closely
knit ranks of the Germans. According to
some accounts, the men were actually
driven forward like sheep by their of
ficers. ' Terror fought against discipline
and death.
When the mighty fusllades of the Bel
gians began, ."avenues were opened up In
the German ranks," writes the corres
pondent. Masses of the dead began to
accumulate in the zreen stretches that
lay' before the fort Quoting a Belgian
wounded soldier, the correspondent says:
'"It waa death In haystacks."
But atlll the Germans Were pressed
swept clean of living beings and Its green
turf waa reddened with the alsTughter of
piles upon piles of the dead."
A Belgian lancer, who waa wounded
said to the Times correspondent: "It
was tragic to see how those poor Ger
mans were driven up to the guns of the
forts In massed formation. They came
so- reluctantly that it was obvious they
came only under compulsion. They stood
not five paces apart and barely fifteen
paoes between the ranks, thus presenting
a solid front which even a woman who
bad never handled a gun, could not have
..listed.
"We simply could not fail to hit them,
and before our Infantry charged with
bayonets, the dead lay in the fields In
great heaps. From what I have been
told about Port Arthur, I do not believe
that even the slaughter there waa ever
as great as the first attack upon Liege.
"When our men charged, many of the
Germans turned and ran terror-atricken.
Hundreds of them were struck mlth
lances and bayonets in the back as they
ran. Of my own charge .1 only know
that my lance a as broken as I stack it
Into some Germao."

MONEY HUSHES UP THE WAILS
Since Treasury Cruiser Started

WASHINGTON. Aug. 11. Ameri
cans In Europe have ulmout stopped
clamoring to return homo, according
to today'B reports to. the Slate de
partment from Ambassador Page at
London. The ambaapwlor claimed
that while Btcamera Bailing Saturday
for the United States carried 5,000
Americans, since the treasury cruis
ers started acroes' the Atlantic and
banks began advancing, cash on de
mand, many of those who first be
sieged the embassy with appeals for
transportation now express willing
ness to remain Indefinitely.
Secretary Garrison estimated to
night that the number of Americans
stranded in Europe who really desire
to return home has dropped to
30,000. Mr. Garrison now doubts
whether it will be necessary to send
any vessels acrous to bring these
people to the United (Hates, as com
mercial lines appear to be able to
take care of tbeni all. One or two
ships, he thinks, may. have to be
sent to some ports where Americans
have congregated beyond tho reach
of neutral commercial vessels, but
for the most part the acute phase is
believed to have parsed without any
real danger to citizens of this
country.

of accommodations within the next
tow days. One vetel Is scheduled
to sail from Barcelona Wednesday
or Thursday, and another Is expected

appeal for funds to be used In European
relief work were checku for $3,000 each

Absolutely the Best
Two Passenger Car Built
The Saxon car today is the best two-pas-ccnger
automobile in the world at anywhere
near its price.
It has more room than any other; it is
more comfortable to ride in ; it is better lock
ing; it has better materials; it is more up-to-date
in design; it has plenty of power for all
emergencies and all road conditions; and it
can be kept running for less cost pev mile
than any other car.
More than 6000 Saxons now in use in
owners' hands throughout the country are
averaging from 27 to 33 miles per gallon of
gasoline.
Good and Good Looking
The Saxon Company has not only made
an unequalled record in shipping 6000 cars
in its first five months of business; it has also
constantly improved them. No car has
ever been so rapidly and thoroughly refined
and improved and made so constantly more
appealing to the public as the Saxon car.
The new Saxon with running boards and .
other improvements has caused a new wave
of Saxon enthusiasm throughout the coun-,
try. Saxon sales, already large, are more
than doubling everywhere.
Come in today and let the Saxon sell
itself to you.
