GERMANS IN OSTEND], MIGHT SEND ING OVER ENGLAND. ind Dropping Bombs In Cities -- Russian Offensive Movement May Withdraw Troops From French Border. London, Aug. 23.--Cable commu- nication with Ostend has been inoter- rupted since 10.05 Saturday morn- ing. This was accepted in official circles proof that the Germans now gccupy the eity. Passengers arriving at Folkestone by the last regular steamer say that the Ger- man eavalry-was just outside of Os tend in, considerable force Friday night and that they were then pre- paring to enter the city. The populace of the city was re- ported in a panic and the city au- thorities had warned all civilians to surrender their arms. Thousands of refugees are in the city and they are certain to suffer greatly as the food supply is limited The newspapers, led by the Times the Post, and the Express, all voice the fear that latest German move may niean an attempted raid through the air directed agains! England While the majority of the military experts say they can not. conceive of any such move, the great majority of Britons have fo years been apprehensive of a Ger man Zeppelin sailing over England and dropping: high explosives on its cities The knowledge that Ger- mans are within four hours of the British coast by steamer has many at least nervous The office, however, refused to be pressed by this possibility The Russian offensive is describéd by the war office jas "'ex- tremely strong." It known that the great hope of the British experts is that the Russian invasion of Germany and Austria will be so wift that it will be necessary to withdraw. troops from the French frontier to meet it The announce ment that the Landstrum,; the Ger man home defence line, has been cgl led to the celors,' is construed as meaning that this force of than a million men will be used repulse the invasion, inasmuch as it is purely and simply a home defence organization as war Am movement 18 0 Kingston Events 25 YEARS AGO. made | CONCLAVE DESPITE WAR. Liection of New Pontiff Within Ten Days Is Certain. London, Aug. 22.-- There will be no difficulty in holding a conelave to elect a new pope owing to the war. in the opinion of English Catholics postponement of the conclave is un- thinkable It is believed here that svery cardinal, including those of the belligerent nations will consider it a0 imperative duty to wake every buman effort to reach Rome within the ten days limit. But even if aot a single cardinal except the Ital- fans manage to reach Rome, the onciave would still be held and the slection be binding The conclave meets automatically ten days after the death of the pon- iff. If there is no quarum those who zet there within ten days are locked up and proceed to elect 4 new pon- tiff. It is his eminencge's duty to 20, and he will do his best te arrive We do net know what the ¥rench, erman and Austrian cardinals are doing, but presume that they will io their duty and make every effort a get to Rome. Still, we are all up n the air, as present conditions are mprecedented in the history of the hurch It is understood that Car- linal Gasquet is also planning to nake an effort to get to Rome.lLt 24s been suggested "that the bellig- rents may allow special conclave erms with cardinals abroad to pass hrough the lines, but in the event of a considerable proportion of for- sign cardinals being unable to get to Rome in time it is certain there will {be no possiblity of a foreign pope { being elected Germans Will Not 6 Get Divided. 29.__'The Canadian ompany has an- will pay the Octo- British stock-hold- ers whose stock is registered in the German agents if prescrib- and affidavit forms are company's London London, 18.
