American Duck hunter Shot While Poaching—Another Wounded. BUFFALO, N.Y,, Dec. 29. — The killing of Walter Smith and the wounding of Charles Dorsch, two American hunters, by Canadian sol- diers -on the Niagara river, near Fort Erie, yesterday, was unintentional, according to information gathered by the_ military authorities and forward- ed to Ottawa last night. The soldiers were aiding a provin sial officer to arrest the men for al- leged violation of the game laws. Several volleys were fired over their heads to force them to come ashore with their rowboat. A final shot, said to have been fired for the same pur- pose, struck Smith between the eyes, and passing through his head, wound- ed Dorsch in the arm. While deep regretover the incident was expressed by the Fort Erie•vii- lage officials it was pointed out that the men were not only technically under arrest by the game officer and were attempting to escape, but they had violated a military order which forbade unauthorized persons to. ap- preach the 'international boundary line while armed, This order, it was said, was accompanied by a verbal order to the soldiers on patrol to shoot to kill if persons so armed re- fused to surrender promptly. Thomas W. Delaney, the provin- cial officer, said the men were shoot- ing at a flock of ducks near the head of the river. One of them was in a boat while the other was wading in the shallow water near the shore picking up the ducks as they fell. he season closed in Ontario on Dec. 15, and Delaney also suspected that the men had no Ontario license, so he decided to arrest them. CONSULS MOIST GET OUT. Only Pro -German Representatives From 11. S. Wanted In Belgium. WASHINGTON, Dec. 2 9—The Ger- man Government has formally- noti- fied the State Department that Amer- ican consuls in Belgium must be ac- ceptable to the German military au- thorities, and that it is desirable that some of the consuls be withdrawn.. for the present at least. Secretary Bryan , declined to make public . the text of the German come munication, or .to comment `upon it until he had had full opportunity to consider it. The understanding in official circles, however, is that the notice is similar to the one sent Ar- gentina and other neutral countries, and that while the German Govern- ment does not insist that consuls in Belgium take out new exquaturs'from German officials, it announces that such consuls must exercise their func- tions only by permission from the military authorities in control of the territory in . which the consulate is situated.
