Berlin, via The Hague, Oct. 19. That the German forces operatinhg in Belgium have effected a junction with the right wing of the army in France was announced at the war office. It was stated that the general sit- uation is showing slow, but neverthe- less distinct, improvement from the German viewpoint. In France the German right wing has been engaged in a series of con- flicts with the allies along the line from Noyon and Roye into Belgium. These encounters, the war office says, while taking on the character of ‘ac- tual battles, have been in the nature of separate movements in which both sides have gained slightly at certain points and lost at others. But at no point, it is stated, has there been any decisive results. Two or three of the positions, it is de- clared, have been taken and retaken three or four times. The weather is said to be bad, and this has had the eifect of slowing down the rapid movement of troops. * Ostend, it i ted, was occupied by the Germans without a struggle. The CGerman advance cavalry patrols found when they reached the out- sk of the town that the allies had retreated, abandoning the intrench- ments which they had constructed north and east of the city. The bur. gomelster of Ostend in person sur rendered the city to the German forces. Retarded by Bad Weather. On the center and left it is stated the situation is unchanged.
