They were discovered when they reached the bridge and the German machine guns opened fire at the end of the bridge. The French troops sprinted through the hail of shot, de- spite heavy losses, and a fair pro- portion of them reached the house in two or three minutes. Then it was a hand-to-hand fight. The Ger- mans fought first from their cover- i ing walls outside, but were shot down, | bayonetted, or knifed. The garrison | retreated indoors and to the out- ! buildings, all of which had been loop- t holed for use in case of attack. The door fell before an African’s axe. The Frenéh troops dashed in, using bayo- ! nets only.

Many of the refugees who had money came independent of any organized agency and consequently the govern- ments of Belgium and England have no knowledge of their movements, The employment of Belgians in England raised many stubborn ques- tions, Relief committees have not encouraged Belgians to accept em- ployment where they would compete with English labor and there has been ‘a studied effort on the part of inglish committees throughout the island to prevent Belgians from ac- cepting a lower wage than that or- dinarily paid to Englishmen or Eng- lishwomen. In France the refugees have almost invariably found employment, espe- cially the men of all ages. The Frenchmen have nearly all gone into the service, with the result that Bel- gians who have any knowledge of | rallroading, bridge building, electrical construction or engineering work of any sort are instantly put to work, Some Belgians have been leaving Tngland for the United States, they are chiefly older men and wom- en who formerly lived in America and have relatives and friends therc.
