Also it is possible that the Germans attempt to cross the Meuse before Liege, for convoys have 1 sighted proceeding toward Angis. The German advance is greatly retarded by the Liege fications, which dominate the routes taken by the Germans tov ge and ti-e intervals between the forts, prevent the pasi cf heavy artillery and transport wagons. The Bclfian position must be turned if these transports to be got through, and the Belgian defence of Liege has there! rendered the invaluable service of checking the impetuosity of German offensive. The German cavalry which on Monday and Tuesday spr itself out over a front extending from St. Trond to Kannut, at -same time sending detachments in the direction of Tirlemt Hougaerde and Jodoi-gne, has fallen back except at one po where it is keeping in contact with the Belttians.

A fight of importance occured near Tirlemont, where a th German Cavalry, with quick firing guns mounted on hon attacked a regiment cf Lancers. The latter retired ow to their inferiority numerically. The Belgians lost two officers an number of men killed and wounded. The Germans are erecting fortifications in the streets of Li? with a view of resisting a possible 3elgian attack on the ris flank. AVIATORS FLY TO FRONTIER.

lgian aviators made flights to-day as far as the Germ frontier. Belgian peasants accuse the Germans of giving quarter. Baron Van Zuilende de Ivyelt was shot by a sentry to-d while riding in an automobile along the Namur-Liege road. The German army has moved north of Liege and is advancii into the heart of Belgium. It is difficult to determine its objectiv There is a screen of cavalry in extraordinary force along the who front of the allied armies.

A new army corps is investing Liege. The French cavalry actively engaged in sharp fighting. Both the German and alii? armies are feeling their A regiment of dragoons coming from the direction of Liej and who attempted to surprise the Belgians at Aineffe, in tl Province of Liege, were driven off, leaving 154 dead and 10 prisoners. Uhlans have taken upward of $400,000 from the bank i Hasselt, capital of the Province of Limburg. On the report that operations on an extensive scale were in minent, a correspondent, by permission of the war control, made circuit along twenty miles of the Belgian front, visiting the ex treme advance and talking with the officers and men.

ALLIES SPREAD OUT FOR BATTLE. The Belgians are on the alert, as important bodies of Germa are making their way through the country above Lieg? proceeding in the direction of Tongres and St. Trond. The impression of the correspondent is that no heavy fightin: is likely in Belgian Limburg, where the Germans have little or infantry. By the opposition offered by the Belgian troops at Liege the Germans lost precious time, which was profitably employed the French and British in concentrating masses at convenient points The allied forces have been so disposed as to be by a fortified position at many of the chief points, but little or nothing has been done around and it is thought that Brus tela is being as a bait to attract the Germans.

The Belgian people are anxious regarding Brussels, as the German cavalry are carrying their raids nearer and nearer to the capital, but such considerations are not likely to have any effect on the decisions of the General Staff. It is certain that vast preparations have been made by the allies now spread out for battle and they are likely to move quickly when the hour to strike comes. The Germans appear to be commencing a fresh phase of the war. Their attack through Central Belgium having failed, they are intrenched along their Maestricht-Liege front and are employing peaaants on the road south through the Provinces of Liege an-i. Luxemburg, foreshadowing an attempt to force their way to the bouth of the river Ourthe and towards the upper Meuse, in France.
