WAR AT A GLANCE So far as can be gleaned from official announcements, the great battle line along the French frontier and In Belgium continues to be the scene of engagements between the opposing armies. 'J 1 The nature 'of these engagements and! their result have not been made public, beyond the admission by the French walr. office that in the north the French and British lines have been moved back a short distance, as well as the French right in the region of St. Die.

The French trogps, on the offensive between Nanoy and Vosges, are said to be making headway.

It Is added in the official statement that the fourth Belgian division Namur has fulfilled Its task of arresting the German column and allowing the Belgians to retire on the French line.

The Paris correspondent of the Times, who had been on the battlefield earlier in the, fighting, says that he met a few miles outside of Phlllippeville, a Berlin officer and the paymaster general of Namur, who told him that the town of Namur had been occupied by the Germans. It had been subjected to a furious bombardment and the German fire was so well regulated that the first few shots had silenced Fort Marcovelette on the northeast and Fort Maizeret on the east. Fort Andoy also suffered badly and was almost out of action. The story continues; The Germans entered the town without encountering much resistance. Port Dave, at the southeast of the town and Fort Wepion on the eppos ite side of the iMeuse, and the line of forts to the north still resist.

In spite of the elaborate preparations with wire entanglements through which was passed an electrical current of 1,500 volts, and the liberal use of broken glass, Namur fell into the hands of the Germans on Sunday. Belgians Evacuate. The Belgians evacuated the town In an orderly manner. All rolling stock and motor cats were removed, and the i station master left on the last locomotive with the railway cash box under, his arm. The Belgian troops, numbering about 3,000, passed under the protection of a French cavalry screen, wlthln the French lines.

Thus the Germans have done much to win mastery over the two banks of tse Me use almost as far as Dlnant They, however, left behind them, six of the eight forts of Namur, which, It Is expected, will yet cause them considerable annoyance. Later on Sunday the French artillery in its turn, opened fire upon the stricken town of Charleroi. The Ger mans In the earlier stages of the en gagements, had poured their shells opon tne upper part of the town, and under a suporting fire from their artillery the French, infantry advanced slowly in the face Of stubborn reRU tance, upon the town they had just evacuated, retaining several villages and becoming once more masters of the line between Thuin, eight miles miuinwesi 01 unarierol and Flghtiiu; Ceases. At six in the evening the fighting ceased, both sides being thoroughly worn out. The next morning, before dawn, the French artillery again bombarded Charleroi and once ihore the "defatigable troops of France swarmed the slope towards the lower part i the town, recapturing the villages of Chatelet, Bouffioulx, Marchienne and Coulllet.

The fighting at this stage of the engagement was attended by 'heavy losses on both sides. Charleroi, which wo 111 me center ot tne is an Industrial mining district, and in the heaps of the surrounding c'ountry the French found admirable' vantage groundV while as In upper Alsace" the Germans mounted mitrailleuses in every steeple of the town. In the face of a withering Are from the German mitrailleuses the French again a en teed the unhappy town of Charleroi and, after furious fighting, drove the Germans, in confusion across the Sambre river.
