The railway between Nantes and La Rochelle was dynamited last night. An important section of the line was destroyed. EXECUTIONS IN BRUSSELS. LONDON, May 19. The Belgian News Agency reports that fifteen were executed in Brussels, five being reprisals for the attack on the Luftwaffe headquarters in Brussels. A second span was blown off the Sambre dam, near Charleroi. PARACHUTISTS IN DENMARK. LONDON, May 19. According to the Moscow radio, a large number of parachutists landed in Denmark, last week.
