Two hundred yards nearer I the harbor the Germans themselves ' sank two dredges and a small steam- er, which also partially block the fairway.

Vv'hat impressed me more than any- thing after I talked with so many civilians, first in the Cambrai area and then in Lille, Ostend and Bruges, is the extraordinary skill with which the Germans got themselves hated everywhere. National hatred as en- emies was to be expected, but senti- ment has universally aroused some- thing more. The individual German is loathed by people of all classes as a brute, bully and thief. Thief, ban- dit and brigand are terms heard everywhere, applied to officers even more than to thj men. In regard to Ostend, the place is not seriously damaged. The area about the station and harbor docks and that part of the sea front where there were big guns (some still re- main imbedded in a deep concrete emplacement) show abundant evi- dence of the excellent marksmanship both of our airmen and of our gun- ners. But so true the aim had been that the bulk of the city is untouched. Along the water front, where many hotel windows were broken, many buildings show some injury. At first glance Ostend looks as if it liad been roughly handltd, but the damage is very small, and Ostend can soon be as gay as ever. Ostend Crowds Sing All Night. She was gay enough last night. in the last days furnislf rich hauls in requisitioned goods. A kitchen bat- tery in a large hotel has, on the average, a ton of copper, which, of course, is all gone, also all mattresses and woolen goods, under formal rk- (luisition. Then every day soldiers took one thing after another. The guardian of one hotel told how they \ transactions among the buyers totaled 3,500,000 Pelts Bring Record Prices With Buyers From Twenty- seven Countries. WHiat buyers who attended say was the largest fur sale the world has ever known, both as to quantity of furs sold and the financial results has just end-i ed at the International Fur Exchange,] 115 South Second Street, SL Louis. In the six days it lasted sales totaled $(1,004,000, or an averagre of more than $1,000,000 daily. The week al^o saw the purchase by the fur men of Liberty bonds to the amoimt of $2,500,000, and generous donations to the Hed Cross. Knights of Columbus, Jewish Welfare and other war reiifef funds. In addition, came with sacks and carried off all things portable, and finally all the lurfiiture - fflns Wreck $5,000,000 Plant. One of the worst outrages was in Bruges where before leaving the town more than $2,000,000 and it is esti- mated that more than ?10, 000.000 was involved in the week's trading. Sixty-four kinds of fur. known to dealers from every part of the world, were listed in the 350-page catalogue anJ destroyed the great Compagnie j Brugoise plant , valued at $5,000,000.
