CAVALRY SCREEN THROWN OUT BY THE GERMANS LONDON, Oct. 13, 4:40 a. m. A Times correspondent in the north of France, under date of Monday, reports strong German columns of all arms are passing through Ballleul (department of the Nord, near the Belgian frontier) in the direction of Ypres (in West Flanders), Belgium, thirty miles southwest of Bruges. "Around the latter town," he says, "the I Germans have concentrated in very large, numbers. German cavalry patrols have ! been seen in many places within twenty , miles of Dunkirk, on the strait of Dover, i forty miles northwest of Lille. "These detachments doubtless are parti of a screen thrown out to test the strength of the allies and mask the movements move-ments of the German main body. There is no doubt that this nif in body is re-trealing re-trealing to the east and northeast. Apparently Ap-parently they have not reoreupied Lille."
