SOME SERIOUS SPLITS REPORTED BETWEEN GERMANS AND AUSTRIANS. Mutual Recriminations at Stormy Council Presided Over By Kalser-- These Allies Fought Openly, Petrograd, Nov. 24--No doubt now remains that serious differences have arisen between Germany and her ally, Austria. It is sald that a stormy council was held under the presidency of Emperor William at Breslau, after the German flight from Poland, After mutual recriminations, Germany demanded that Austria should give every man for the de- fence of East Prussia, implying that Austria had already gone beyond the hope of saving by the Austrians, On the other hand, Austria required that the Germans should make a serious attempt to save Cracow, It appears that this stormy council had been preceded by actual fighting between the Austrian and German soldiers. In the course of the retreat when the Germans reached the neighborhood of Pabiantze, largely populated by German colonists, the rest of the in habants being exclusively Jews, the German armies appeared to feel al- ready at home. Quarrels broke ont which terminated in the Austriahs leaving Germany, and striking away on their own line of retreat. Strong bodies of Germans were sent alter them, and beth parties opened fire. The result was decided by the arrival of German reinforde- ments, who, it is believed, have ex terminated what they considered mu- tinists troops rather than regular allies, A ----------ew .

This amount will put both Varsity and MeGill ahead on the season.

They used the weight to good advantage and through it wore their opponent down, playing them into submission in the closing period. BASE TO ATTACK ENGLAND. Whole Belgian Coast Being Fortified By Germans. : Rotterdam, Nov. 24--The origin of the statements in circulation a few days ago that ships of the British fleet had bombarded Zeebrugge, it is now plain, came from the fact that mine drifted ashore in heavy wea- ther last Sunday and exploded on the breakwater, doing great damage. The noise of the explosion was heard at Flushing, and gave rise to the sensational rumors mentioned. No civilian bas allowed within two miles of Zeebrugge for the last fortnight, and it is known that big engineering works have been in pro- gress at the head of the canal. The whole coast from Knocke to Nieuport is now dotted with heavy gun positions, the German artillery being of sufficient range and calibre to make an efféctive response to warships attempting to bombard the littoral. It is asserted that this is only the first step in the execution of a great scheme for holdihg and fortifying the coast, a scheme which was to have been carried as far as Calais, and may be regarded as the prepara tion of # base Tor an attack upon England, atéofding ta the pre-ar- ranged plims of the general staff, thin merely us a precautionary mea sure to cover a posible German re- treat.

E 4 Bn BOY IS A SERGEANT. Edouard Martel, 13, Has Fought Since War Began. Paris, Nov, 24--At the Duchess of Sutherland's hospital at Malo les Bains, says the Journal, is Edouard Martel, only 13, but a full-fledged sergeant of engineers. Born at mal- zeville, near Nancy, he joined a com- pany of engineers who were passing through the village, became useful, and stayed with them. During the retreat from the Meuse to the Marne he fought in the ranks and shot two Germans. On the Marne he showed gallantry in protecting by rifle fire the soldiers who were entrenching. He also, un- der heavy fire, took supplies to the advanced trenches, Capt. Bedos made him a sergeant, which was confirmed by Col. Dureu, who embraced him hefore the regiment. On October 20 he was taken with appendicitis in Flanders and was re- moved to the hospital, where he was operated on successfully. He will res turn to the front soon, but in the meantime is in charge of a Seneaga- lese non-com whose two arms have been amputated. The Matin suggests editorially that + no further spaee be devoted to stories | of youthful heroes, which are rapidly filling the majority of small boys with a desire to leave home to be- come soldiers. The Matin suggests that they would much better be em- ployed as boy scouts, doing useful work, rather than risking their lives where trained men are needed. ""ENTRAPPED BY FLOODS.
