Nbaw> 4 456 43 NEARLY 100 PERSONS WERE KILLED DURING TEUTON MURDER AAMPAGE OVER LONDON: 26 WERE GHILOREN NO DAMAGE OF MILITARY OR NAVAL NATURE DONE BY GERMANS "‘The first bombs were dropped on the eastern outskirts of London at about i1.30 a.m.â€"Numerous bombs fell in rapid succession in various disâ€" tricts in the east end. One bomb fell in a railway station, hitting an incomâ€" ing train . Seven persons were killed and seventeen injured here. Another homkb fell on a school, killing ten and injuring about fifty children. A numâ€" ber of warehouses were damaged and fires were caused. ‘"The air raid over London lasted about fifteer minutes. The raiders were engaged by guns of the East London defences and a large number of airplanes of the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service were sont up as soon as the enemy was repor‘ed off the coast. Several engagements took place in the air, but the resulte at present are uncertain." "Up to the present the casualties recorded in the London area are fortyâ€" one killed and 121 injured. The lists at present are incomplete, and the finâ€" al figures may be greater. â€" ‘ "A few bombs also were dropped near North Foreland and opposite the hanks of the Thames, four persons be ing injured. Three bostile airplanes appeared over the busiest part of the downâ€" town secticn of London at half past eleven this morning, and worked a rapid â€" transformation . in the busy streets. The sound of the explosions of bombs in the east end and of antiâ€" aircraft guns from perches around the busiest districts gave the public warning of dangers. Vehicular trath stopped instantly. Omnibus â€" drivers tg'dered all passengers to alight, and ‘buses, taxis, wagons and lorries were left stranded in the streets until the danger was passed. Many Buildings Suffer. Three times the explosion of bombs shook the roof with a slightly differ ent tremolo than the rocking of _ the earth urder the antiâ€"aircraft guns, but the bombs wore evidently at some distance from this point, and the vista over the city rocts showed no effect of their explosion. 5 2 f The east end slood the strain of che | raid Well and thére was no panic such | as one might expect to find among a population of this class, which is large: A ‘nreign. Business was at a standâ€" still in many sections for a fow minâ€" utes and great throngs gathered about the wrecked buildings, but they were orderly crowds, bent on seeing what damage the Germans had done. And there was plenty of damage to gee. for scores of buildings had suf fered, and more than one was st: amoking from fires whici the engines were working upon. In some sections of the city where *~ nhs had been dropped traffic was held up almost entirely owing to the @ense crowds and to the work being done by nolice and firemen in the damâ€" aged buildings. Every available po licoman was called to the scene, even the night policemen being routed out to assist in handling the situation. Monctary Loss Not Heavy. Througzhout the bombed area there ctims Include 55 Men, 16 Women and 26 Children, and Injured, 223 Men, 122 Women and 94. Children â€"Antiâ€"Air Craft Defences Come Into Play.

A few Germans who succeedâ€" ed in reaching our front trenches were driven out or killed and the attack was completely repulsed at all points.

One school in this district had a lucky escape: There are a thousand pupils in that school, and fifteen minutes afâ€" ter the little ones returnedto the building from recess a bomb fell where hundreds of them haid been gathered. ‘There were many evidenses of the coolness with which the peopleâ€" greet ed the advance of the raiders over ports that a raid was in progress, King George proceeaed with an invesâ€" titure in Buckingham Palace, the re cipients of the honors walking in and out of the palace grounds without a trace of nervousness being apparent.

Rathom, editor of the famcus United States newspaper It was a story that will not soon be fergotten hy the large and representative gathâ€" ~ring of newspaper men, at which the Telegraph was the only Kitchener newspaper to be represented by three members of the business and editorial itaff. Mr. Rathom and his accomâ€" plished wife were given a most en, thusiastic reception and at the conâ€" +lusion ef the address the large and ittentive audience applauded the reâ€" markable newspapér man for several minutes. To illustraia the German capacity ‘or blundering, Mr. Rathom told _ the story of Werner Horne, who was reâ€" wonsible for the destruction of the Vanceboro bridge. _ He had been deâ€" tected in New York by one of the emâ€" nloyes of The Providence Journal. In m effort to dirguise himself he allowâ€" ad bis beard to grow, put on old and ragged clothes, and thus attired hoarded a firstâ€"class coach on a Merâ€" chant‘s Limited train. This lack of foresight was responsible for Horne‘s arrest, and when questioned later as to his reason, he said, "I am an officer and a gentleman and do not travel any other way." > 8 _ Nine years ago two wireless staâ€" tions were established at Port Judith and Black Island. On the day the war started the idea was developed that messages bound for Sayville and Nanâ€" tucket could be intercepted and the knowledge put to use. Operators were installed, and for several months tiey quietly picked up messages and almost 100,000 had been accumulated. _ Then began the attempt to reâ€"code the mesâ€" ages, and "we have been fortunate in being able to find some of the codâ€" es." he said amid laughter and cheers. Mr. Rathom told of munition plots which had been discovered, of bombs on ships, aggravating poisons in Red Cross bandages, incendiarism and murder, for he said, "Many hundreds of men had been murdered and milâ€" lions of dollars worth of property had ~een destroyed by the rut.'\{en plotâ€" are * I He told of the placing of reporters from his own office in institutions conâ€" nected with the German embassy where they could sée and hear every ‘hing that was going on. ‘"We got enough ahead in those five months to keep us going for twentyâ€"five years. We have not printed oneâ€"fiftieth of the information we have recceived." he declared. "We have _ accomplished our results because of the green blub ber that has taken the place of _ the grey matter which the Lord in his wis dom has placed in the head of every German diplomat " Mr. Rathom told his audience what his couutry was doing in preparing for war. He had received a telegram from his own city of Providence which The Power of One Newspaper is told in a Thrilling Manâ€" ner by John R.

Mr. Rathum traced at lengtb the growth of the secret service by which the marvelous exposures were inade. He described in detail the methods he employed to obtain information of the intrigue of Von Bernstorff and Von Papen to menace the interest of the allies, and the result of the invesâ€" vgations which caused their "hurried ocean trip" to their native land. The apprehension of Capt. Von Papen was hrought about by the wit of a girl in the employ of the journal who was sent out to obtain information.. . She secured a position in the office of the Austrian consul general in New York City. She learned that a large boz packed with secret propaganda docu ments were to be shipped during the next week to Germany, through Eng lwrd. The problem was to identify the package and secure it later. On the day on which the package was to be forwarded, the girl was left alone tr watch the box and she scated hersel: upon it for the purpose of eating her iunch. Von Papen entered the roow and made sentimental advances to the girl. She in an apparent fit of absent mindedness drew with. réd chalk two hearts on the box. Later this package was identified at Falmouth by means nf these two bearts. "That girl is back in the office toâ€"day drawing her $16 a week as usual," said Mr. Rathom with a smile. The discovery of intrigue between UDr. Heinrizhâ€" Albert and Ambassador Dumba was another interesting story. Dr. Albert was suspected of being a German spy, but no direct evidence was forthcoming. A young man was appointed to watch his movements, and after months of careful waiting he one day saw him enter a store where e ordered a leather bag, leaving _ it there for a day in order to have his initials placed upon it. The reporter antered the store, learned the initials ind the form of letters used and imâ€" mediately secured a bag in a neigh ‘oring store on which were inscribed the same letters and in the same form. tome time later Dr. Albert was seen imtering a car carrying his new bag. He was followed, and during the Jourâ€" rey an altercation in the car aroused the curiosity of the passengers, who stood up to see what the dispute was about. At this moment the bag of Dr. Albert was changed for the similar me purchased by the young reporter. The information discovered in the bag led to the departure of Ambassador Yumba for his home in Austria within 1 week "Every statement that we have made in regard to German plots in the Unitâ€" ed States has been proven to be posiâ€" tively true," said Mr. Rathom. _ ‘"For the first nine or ten months no o@» believed what we were saying. We vere shouting against the wind. . The 4ismissal of Dr. Dumba was the firat result of our months of effort." "Our people are a slow, ponderous immense machine, with unlimited nower, but since the machine bevan to move it has been humming. In a faw days you will be gratified with the actual knowledge of how many of wr regular forces are now fighting on the soil of France." This stateâ€" ment was received with prolonged cheers. ~ "One thing by which you are jndgâ€" e1 in the war is by the work of the men who bear the brunt at the *râ€"nt, and Canada has no cause for shame. They are fighting the principl~ that God has placed in the hearts of every freedomâ€"loving man.
