BELGIAN ARMY'S ESCAPE.
HEROISM OF SMALL FORCE.
GERMANS HELD IN CHECK.
London, October 25.
The Times' correspondent in France attributes the escape of the main Belgian Army from Antwerp largely to the heroism of a few thousand who held up the Germans at Oullcm. south of Ghent, while the remainder hugged the Dutch frontier and marched along the coast to join the allies. The force at On Hem was badly cut up, but it saved the army.
