Bombs in Freiburg;

PARIS, Dec. 18.-A Belfort dispatch to
the Havss agency says: , .
"Despite German denials. It . Is now
clearly established that the recent aero
plane raids from Belfort were productive
of real results. Six bombs were thrown
on Freiburg. Baden, on December 4.
"In order to mlalead the Germans, the
leader of the flotilla.' a sergeant major
of hussars, made a wide detour over the
Black forest, coming; back on Frelburir
without being molested.
"On December the flotilla, flying In
single file st a height of 1,000 feet, amidst
a furious storm of shells from the Ger
man guns, threw eighteen bombs, of
which fourteen caused enormous dam
age. The leading aeroplane wax .truck
by a shell splinter on the left nlana nri
several bullet, grased the gasoline reser
voir, breaking some Of the stay, without,
however, impairing the stability of tho

Violent.
LONDON. Dec. U-Nc definite news
has yet come from tho Russian aide of
the great German victory in Poland re-Pm-ted
In Berlin and Vienna. The Rus
sian official headquarters' report received
trnlKht gives nc Information on the sub
Jf ct and the customary long Tctroxrad
dispatches il.-alina; with the military op
erations In this district are absent from
the London newspapers this morning,
which wculd seem to indicate that a cen
sorship has been Imposed on FVtrograd.
A Petrograd dispatch to the Daily Mall
dated Thursday ic.vis at some length to
the alleged Instructions of the German
emperor to Ms staff that an attempt to
capture Warsaw he made at all hazards.
Rumors of su, n Instructions have been
current for some days and according to
the Novoe Vrcmya the plan Is connected
with the idea that the capture of War
saw would provide a suitable moment for
the propopnl of a peace conference. The
Novoe Vreniya says:
'The very violence with wnich, the Ger
man efforts are being made prove that
some grest gain Is sought."
According to other accounts Germany
Is employing 7DO.0O0 men In the movement
toward Warsaw.
The Dally Mall s correspondent says the
Russian retirement on Sochaosew Is gen
erally approved as wise. The position
there Is protected by swamps snd com
mands th surrounding country.
Unfortunately, the correspondent says,
"It seems as If German mobility ha
again given them superiority over num
bers. Tho Russian supposed they had
sufficient men present to check the Ger
mans at this point, but It is believed that
th Germans brought troops around from
Mlawa, thus weakening the fore there,
which has since been chased to th fron
tier. The Germans also were greatly re
inforced from another Quarter an,t .1..
fighting is described st extremely violent."
French Yellow Book
Accused of Trying
to Mislead Neutrals
BERtLIN. Dec. 18. (Via London anA
Amsterdam.) The official press bureau
today save out th following:
Th Norddeutsch Algemcdne Zeltung,
commenting on the French yellow book,
cop! of which have Juat been received,
says that It consists of documents ob
viously selected and prepared to prove
that Russia did not provoke th. war n
plao th responsibility on Germany, to
create dissension between Germany and
Austria and to turn neutral nations, es
pecially Holland and Denmark, against
Oermany.
"It can be stated that tho pretended
official German secret reports concerning
the increase In the German army which
the French war minister Is said to have
received In March, 1913. Is only a clumsy
Invention, this newspaper says."
British Destroy
Turkish Barracks
PARIS. Doc. 18. -The Hsvas agency has
given out a dispatch from Its correspond
ent at Athens, who quotes a message from
the Island of Tenedos to the effect that
the recent bombardment by a British fleet
In the Gulf of Paraos, immediately north
of the Dardanelles, comletely destroyed
ths Turkish barracks on shore and seri
ously damaged the fortifications. The
Turks", panic stricken, fled to the interior.
France Has Plenty
Funds to Fight War
to Successful End
PAflH. Iec. 1.-Mlniter of Flnanrs
Rlhot explained the 1915 budget today tp
the appropriations committee of ths
Chumber of Deputies, lie said In part: .
"When the war besan the French
treasury had not taken any precautions
to enable it adequately to meet the ex
penses involve). This is one of th
proofs that we did not want war. It was
forced upon us, and I aver that we are
not responsible for the unchaining of
these terrible evils from which the bel
ligerents ss well as neutral countries
are suffering today. The Interests of all
peoples are so Interwoven that the na
tions not actually engaged In the hos
tilities nro deeply affected by the war."
M. Rlhot said he thought the moat
pressing need today was the re-establish-In
of credit tempore rily paralysed by
the first shock of the war. Th intricate
system of commercial snd Industrial
credit, brought to perfection after cen
turies of labor had been stunned for the
moment, hut was now recovering.
"France will not lack resource, to con
tinue the war. which It did not seek, but
wnicn It Is resolved tn ntir.u. . .v.

tinued. "From a financial vlewpoln

regard without anxiety the prospect of
prolongation of hostilities. Th. it
