ii; LONDON Aug 27,3:51—31‘he Daily iaii‘s Bou-
fobfie correspondent says that the events of the past few
days have again disorganized the Paris train service,
and that everything must give way to the necessities for
transportation of troops, the removal of wounded and the
clearing of the civilian population from: the firing lines.
The train from Paris Wednesday took twelve hours,
being compelled to wait seven hours at Amiens by a
flood of 5,000 Belgian refugees arriving from the Char-
leroi district and a train load of British wounded who
were guarded from inquisitive visitors by armed sentries.
Among those who crossed to England were many Am-
erican women from Swizerland.

LONDON, Aug. 27, 4:!4 a. m‘.—A‘ dispatch to R'cti—
ter's Telegram Company from Paris states that Prince
Louis Antoine of Orleans and Braganza, who resigned
his commission in the AustrO—llungarian army at the out—
break 01‘ the war, has been authorized by King George
to serve in the British army. He has left for the front to
join the stall“. ’
The keenness of the Frenchmen of all classes and all .
over the world to join the colors is instanced by the
priests in Palestine. A number of those in Jerusalem,
hearing of the mobilization order, left 011 the first bruit for
France. Among thei'n is the Dominican Father Vincent,
who was engaged at the time in writing an archaeologi-
cal on ancient Jerusalem.
PA'RIS, Aug. 27, 5:15 a. m.——-A refugee from Mer-
bes-lc-Chateau, a town thirteen miles from Mons, said on
his arrival here that 360 Belgian riflem'en posted in his
town kept several thousand Get-minis at bay fOr three
days until a German spy disguised in a Belgian uniform.
showed a path which enabled the Germans to take the
riflcmen in‘tlieir rear. All were killed except twelve vil—
lagers.

guard, were on August 23 ejected from the heights of

BERLIN, Aug. 26 via London, August 27, 6:40 a

interviews with many inhabitants of the desolated region
in the war fields of Belgium, showing that the franc-

sanction and support of the authorities, wild ‘ ”without
doubt, 'according to these peoples' statements. supplied the
civil population with ammunition. As a result of the se-
vere measures systematically adopted by the Germans.
this warfare of the iranctireurs has been early stamped
out.
The correspondent attests thebravery of the Belgian
army, which he says is proved by the German losses.
