UPRISING INJOUTH AFRICA
Againat Great Britain Believed To B«
Under Control—England Fears ,
German Invasion
There were no Important develop
ments in the European war during the
past week. While there was a great
deal of activity in the two theaters
of war no desisive victories were won
or even any definite advantage gained.
A German submarine succeeded in
sinking another British cruiser with
400 men on board. For a time the up
rising In British South Africa againat
Great Britain took on a serious aspect,
but General Botha, the British leader,
now believes he has the situation well
in hand.
The progress of the allies against
the Germans in the north of France
along the Belgian border has been
necessarily slow, but recent dispatches
from London and Paris state that ad
vances have been made. Jn some
places along the great battle line,
which extends more than one hundred
and fifty miles, the allies have push
ed the Germans across the Belgian
border. Ih the campaign between the
Germans and the Russians in the east
there has been much fighting, but the
reports coming from Berlin, Vienna
and from Petrograd have been so con
flicting that definite knowledge of the
results Is impossible. .
At the present time England her
self Is proving the center of attraction.
Following the fall of Antwerp, the Ger
man forces pushed on towards Ostend
on the Belgian coast. As Ostend Is
only 66 miles from Dover and 115
miles from London, England is alarm
ed over the possibility of German in
vasion. However, it appears that the
problem o» extending his lines before
the allies to the coast in order that
there would be*no flank for the al
lied troops to run is worrying the kai
ser a great deal more at the present
time than a possible Invasion of Eng
land.

were not able to flght have been driv

they have surely found a safe haven
of refuge, but the powerful siege guns
of the Germans battered down the
walls of the forts and once more the
populace fled, this time to Ostend.
Hardly had they arrived at the coast
city than they were terrorized with |
the news that the Germans were com j

German Fort Found In London
London.—The police have found at
Wlllesden, a suburb to the northwest
of London, a building occupied by Ger
| mans with foundations and roof of
| heavy concrete. They arrested twerity 1
, two Germans on the premises. The
I premises were being used by C. O. j
I Roeber, a German music publisher, as j
a factory. The site of this factory at
Wllltsden commands several important
, railroad junctions. The Paris prem
| lses of this same firm were blown up
recently on orders of the French gov
ernment.

formerly Halted States senator sad

ent administration's policies, especi
ally with reference to Mexico.
Mr. Knox criticised the Democratic
party fur holding the Republican
party responsible for certain sttM
tlons fn connection with A mertcam
foreign aalrs. "Wo party~ he «aid,
"has the right to Imperil the squi
ll brum of oar International relations
by submitting them to the rough aad
perilous course of domestic policies."
"The Democrats prattle about
peace," said Mr. Knox, "yet they
have the distinction of beginning a
war upon a famished aad distraught
neighboring people "
He stated that all ' the bloodshed
with which Mexico has been cursed
the past 18 months was due M the
failure to recognize the Huerta *ov
ernment and the removal of the Taft
embargo on the sale of war materials
to Mexican bandits.

er Tlnderwood of the house in which
