It is declared here that the cathedral of Notre Dame has not been damaged. ; The Germans delivered one of their last furious attacks between 6 and 7 o'clock Friday morning. The Belgians resisted them valiantly in their trenches, and the desperate fighting resulted in-very heavy losses on both sides. During all Thursday night Zeppelin airships directed the firing of the German heavy artillery, the results of which were appalling. The German artillery forced its way across the River Nethe, in which many of the artillerymen were drowned, The fighting has been indescribably sanguinary. ' The Belgians succeeded in blowing up two, and possibly more of their batteries and heavy artillery. Belgian Field Army Had Fled, | Forts Blown Up Before Surrender LONDON, Oct. 10 [Associated Press].—Antwerp has fallen into the bands of the Germans, with the exception of a few outlying forts which cannot affect the outstanding facts, but its capture, important and stirring as it has been, was robbed of much of {ts intrinsic value, it is contended here, by the escape of the garrison. The defenders deld on long enough to enable them to take full stock of the situation and evacuated the citadel when it became evident that the doom of the town was sealed. Toward the close of the defense only & sufficient garrison to work the remaining available guns was left to hold Antwerp. At midday of Friday the advance force of the Germans entered Ant- werp, and the full surrender of the city occurred at 2.30 o'clock in the afternoon. _ Beaten back from their last defenses, the Belgians blew up their heavy batteries and some of the forts and withdrew to rejoin their com- rades who previously had evacuated their positions. The forts around Contich, six miles southeast of Antwerp, are sald to be still intact, and the duel between them and the German artillery is reported as still proceeding to-day. The outcome cannot be in doubt, it having been conclusively proved in he past two months that permanent itzers. The real extent of the ‘destruction within the walls of Antwerp will be slow in reaching the outside world from unpartisan sources, because communication with the city is either cut or entirely in the hands of buildings are still blazing, and that the great cathedral is seriously damaged. The strategic importance of Antwerp to the Germans arose largely Ostend the pressure on these lines will be removed, at least temporerily.
