Aurand of Minneapolis and Dr. Rob
art Riser of Chicago, accompanied
by their wives and children, have
arrived In London after over a fort
night's experiences In the theater of'
-war, and particularly between Liege
and Aix La Chapelle. The adven
ture of these two American physi
cians, included .three (".ays' work In
a hospital at Vervlers, Belgium,
where German wounded were being
brought..
Drs. Aurand and Riser were Just
la advance of .the German army on
their way from Welkenraedt to Ver
vlers. They noted soldiers on the
road In solid columns. At Aix La
La Chapelle they saw troops march
ing day and night for three days.
MllUaa ad Half of Matt.
They estimate the Germans at
1,100.000 men, all with brand new
equipment. They noticed that the
soldiers la ihe hospital at Vervlers
wore new underclothes. The pri
vates suffered greatly from their
new shoes; their feet were swollen
and blistered. ' The . Americans
treated many ases in the Vervlers
hospital, which was located- In a
building previously used as a Cath-
Ollc college. JTbey eaw thousands of
German cannon labelled "Nach
Paris."
The German soldiers were kind to
the American travelers, even carry
ing water for the women and buying
milk for the children.
The loyal populace of Alx La Cha
pelle showered the paaslng German
troops with food, cigars and cigar
ettes. They set out within easy reach
buckets or water In which they
could wash their faces.
The German soldiers encountered
by the American doctors, both offi
cers and men, talked to them freely.
They aald they Intended a peaceable
entry. Into Belgium and that tbey
were paying for all the supplies
used. They declared German troops
bad been maneuvering la Belgium
for a period of two weeks prior to
the outbreak of hostilities. The Ger
man attitude was that their troops
must make use of Belgium. They
did not Intend to disturb the people,
but they would engage la sharp re

Br PERCY J. PHILLIPS.
BRUSSELS, Aug. .-(Spedal Cable
gram to Now York World and Omaha
Bee.) Today the Germans occupied
Louvaln. which was until this morning
the headquarters of the Belgian army.
The first hint I got of what was afoot
was upon returning from Antwerp early
In the afternoon. At a crossroads below
the railway line 1 met a whole corps of
Belgian Infantry marching away from
Louvaln. They were moving In perfect
order and were In splendid condition, ex
cept they were dust-covered.
Further on toward Louvaln I met with
many Indications of what had happened.
A force of 1,000 men, or perhaps mora,
had bean left behind In trenches to meet
the enemy and cover up the retreat of
lha main Belgian force, I learned.
With these the Germans, who had ad
vanced along three roads from Dlest,
Ttrlemont and Eghesee, had a sharp en
counter. The Belgians fought stubbornly.
?y all accounts, and their losses were far
smaller than the Invaders, as thsy have
been In each engagement
There was a story among some of the
refugeea that Louvaln had been fired.
but that sesreely seems likely. At all
events, from a distance of about two
miles, I could see no Indications of the
town burning.
Meets Crowd ( Refaa-ees.
At this point I was stopped by an
snormous crowd of refugees, some on
foot and others In private vehicles and
Red Cross cars. The eight of these folk
being driven from the'.r homes was piti
ful. By far the greater number were
women with young children whose fathers
were fighting at the front.
The panic, of Ignorance had seised the
mob. As I wss about to return ono peas
ant fired his double-barrelled shotgun at
my car, mistaking my canvas fishing- hat
for a German helmet. He blew the tail
lamp to pieces. Lest hi Indiscretion
should lead hlai Into far worse trouble I
stopped the car, took his gun away from
him and broke It across the breech.
In Antwerp this morning there were
hundreds of fugitives near the station,
who had come In from Turnhout. Heren
thsls and other places where there had
been some fighting. These were for the
most part being sent back by train to
their homes. None of many that I had
spoken to hsd even seen any German
troops, but It Is easy to find an excuse
for women left alone with children to
become panic-stricken.
Metton for Royalty.
A gendarme told me of ona old woman
who arrived last evening at the barri
cades driving six sheep. She did not
want the Germans to have them, she ex
plained, and so she brought them with
her. She was quite willing the Belgian
soldiers should hsv them If It would keep
tier safe. Perhaps, she added, the queen
and princes might need some of her
mutton.
Antwerp, however, has good stores of
food to last throughout a siege, and the
princes whom I saw this morning walk
ing through the streets with their tutors
are hardly likely to be in need.
Of the defenses of Antwerp, it Is not
necessary to spebk. They are as nearly
Impregnable as can be. and the force de
fending them la the strongest In the
country, not even excepting Namur.

ments, nothing Is hoard rom the Ger

In the center battle line, where the

The Russian advance In east Prus
sia apparently stretches over a front
of sixty miles between Stalluponen
and Lyck, but the Russian invaders
have not yet gained much German
ground.
Little Is heard of the Austrian
operations at present but it is known
that Austrian contingents are mov
ing along the Rhine to meet the
French advance In Alsace.
PARIS, Aug. 21 to; 46 a. m.)
The Petit Parisian's revieW" it .'the
war situation, today says;
"A great battle Is preparing. Bel
glum is to be the theater of the most
formidable shock In history, the
duration of which escapes prophecy.
"Repulsed In the south at Dlnant
by the French, the Germans have
been making since Tuesday a vigor
ous offensive movement towards the
north, which on Wednesday forced
the Belgians, after a fine resistance,
to fall back on Antwerp. The Berlin
government will claim a triumph,
whereas from a strategical point of
view, the movement waa of mediocre
Importance.
"The French . armies also have
taken up their respective positions,
and it is certain that our general
staff Dflng taken unpre
pared by our adversaries' tactics. The
staff had long, foreseen them and is
prepared to deal with them under
the best auspices."
2:55 p. m. Official news, made
public In Paris today, says that the
German forces continue to pass the
Meuse in the vicinity of Huy, and
that an Important concentration is
being carried out In Belgium this
(Friday) morning.
No French territory is occupied by
the enemy except a piece of enclosed
land at Audun Leronan, In the de
partment of Meurth and Moselle.
Antwerp Ready for Stegre. '
LONDON, Aug. 21. (9:20 a. m.)
The correspondent of the Times' at
The Hague, telegraphing today, says:
"The preparations for the defense
of Antwerp extend over an enormous
area. All classes in the city are
joining in the work, day and night.
but there is no sign of panic or con
fusion, v
"The gates, driven through the
walls by a peace loving people, are
closed, while this work of prepara
tion goes doggedly forward. . Ant
werp Itself offers a strange contrast.
At almost every window appear Bel
glum, English and French flags, giv
ing a festive air to the city, which is
preparing to resist to the laat gasp."
LONDON. Aug. 11. (:25 a. m.)
The Amsterdam correspondent of
the Chronicle, telegraphing yester
day, aays that Antwerp waa being
put In a state of defense and being
provisioned for a siege.
He adds that It was stated at the
office of the general staff Thursday
that all foreign correspondents
found in Belgium after laat night
would be shot.

GHENT, Belgium, Via Paris, Aug.
21. (3:50 a. m.) German Hus
sars and Uhlans arrived this morn
ing (probably Thursday), on the
shooting grounds at the gates of
Brussels, whither the burgomaster
went to parley with them.
In the afternoon German officers,
occupying an automobile, crossed
Grand Place (the market place),
going to the city hall, while detach
ments of Germans went through va
rious parts of the city.
The telegraph office and railway
station were cloned for the greater
part of the day. Many of the in
habitants of Brussels are leaving for.
Most Powerful Vessel

Ghent and Ostend.
The general opinion is that the
Germans will only pass through the
city or, at the most, make a very
short stay there.
The only signs of animation in
the place are caused by the arrival
of peasants, who are abandoning the
surrounding villages. The German
troopers have established themselves
on the shooting grounds. They are
understood to have said that they
had been cut off from the rest of the
army.
PARIS, Aug. 20. The German
cavalry has occupied Brussels. This
official announcement was made to
night. Strong columns are following
up this movement. The Belgians
army is retiring on Antwerp, with
out having been engaged by the Ger
mans. Along with the announcement of
the fall of Brussels the official state
ment says:
aeceasea In Alsace.
"Our tropps have met with bril
liant successes in Alsace, especially
between Muelhausen and Alklrch.
The Germans, retreating on the
Rhine, left In our hand' may pri
soners and twenty-four 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 found themselves faced by ex
ceptionally 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 Marne to the
Rhine."
Prearranged Pin a.
The official statement continues:
"In conformity with a prearranged
plan' the Belgian field army re
treated on the entrenched camp of
Antwerp, after brilliantly fulfilling
Us duty, a's .dictated, by the strategical
situation and staying for a fortnight
the German passage of the Meuee.
"Antwerp has a double role. It is
a formidable entrenched camp, forti
fied on most modern lines and is the
base from which the Belgian army
can threaten the German flank and
co-operate effectively with the allies.
"The Antwerp defenses consist of
three trains, whose power of resist
ance can be heightened by flooding
a large area around the works. Ant
werp is fully equipped with the most
perfect appliances. To besiege the
fortress the Germans would have to
detach Imposing forces and a large
siege train. This they are not likely
to do. If they do not, they will be
obliged to cover themselves against
the operations of the Belgian army,
which is Intact, thanks to the skillful
retreat and augumented by the Ant
werp garrison.
"It is to be added that the Liege
forts still hold out. Those at Namur
have not yet been attacked. They
are as strong as the forts at Liege

"From this it would be seen that
