Paris, Oct, 11, 6.35 a. m—The mili- tary consequences of the fall of Ant- werp are mot so great as the lesson to be learned therefrom of the futility of permanent fortifications. This opin- jon is expressed by Lieutenant Colonel Rousset, who says that it will be necessary to abandon entirely this sort of defense and replace it with rude works of easy and quick construction which can be placed anywhere accord- ing to the need of the hour. Then, he says, shells, because of the absence of resistance, would cause only small damage. Never, he declares, has a country been saved by its fortifica- tions, while there are those whose fortresses have been their ruin. Colonel Rousset continues: “To epeak only of that which con- cerns us, it is permissible to affarm that 1 Metz had been in 1870 an open city, Bazaine would not have sent . forth from there his magnificent army, for the subsequent loss of which he was condemned to death and did actu- ally suffer imprisonment. ‘Belgium believed-itself protected by its triple barrier-at Liege, Namur and Antwerp. Alas! it was not. No more are we with Mauheuege or Austrians with Lemberg and Przemyel. The real safeguard of a mation is an effective military force that can stay an army of_invasion.” The observations of Rousset, which are published today, have created spe- clal interest in view of the possibility Proves the Permanent GERMAN CAVALRY DRIVEN S BACK BY FRENCH French Make Slight Advance Between Arras and the Oise.

HOW TAKING OF ANTWERP IMPRESSED BERLIN Considered” Without Parallel in War History. Berlin, ‘Via London, Oct. 11.—The taking of Antwerp has made the deep- ‘of impressions here because it was onsidered one of the strongest forti- fcations i Burope. - For the first tme in several weeks, s are flying on public edifices ‘buildings. That one of the most modern fort- resses should be taken in eleven days is considered without parallel in war history, especially since it was not necessary to Invest Antwerp. Military experts assert that the experience at this city marks a new era in military operations as related to fortified posi- tions. The genéral impression has been_ heightenell because of the ef- forts of the English to relieve the city with troops and heavy marine artil- lery, and the assertions of the French press ‘that AntwerD was irreducible, which was the prevailing belief even in Germany. It is generally believed that the fate of Antwerp will have an invaluable moral effect. It is known here that the German heavy artillery which was used in the bombardment of Antwerp has already been started off for an unknown des- tination in France.

London, Oct, 11.—The Bordeaux cor- respondent of the Times has sent the following despatch: “In official circles here it is Tagog- nized that the fall of Antwerp may prolong the war.
