How the Russians Crossed the Danube

The following Is an account by an eye
witness Of the crossing Of the Danube BY
the Russians:
With darkness, Gen. Dragomirof be-
gan his dispositions. His first work was
to plant in implacements row Of field
guns all along the edge Of the flats, to
sweep the opposite banks. This was
while infantry was being marched over
the flats, TO the cover Of willows. Dark
ness and distractions we're so great that
all was not ready until the first glimmer
Of dawn; there was no bridge, but a
number Of river boats, capable Of hold
ing from 10 to 40 men each. These
were dragged on carriages through the
mud and launched in darkness. Boats
put of singly, rowing across for little
cove, and, later, little steam-tug was
brought into requisition. The Turks
Immediately opened smart fire both on
the boats and troops who were waiting
to cross. The leading boat con-

yards from shore lie landed his handful

to cover the landing boats that followed

boat load. At length enough had accu-

Schobeliff and his son. Gen. Yolchine

and follow their officers. There was q
rush and acheer. The Turks fired an
effective vollcy, but did not wait. Gen.
Yolchine's skirmishers followed them
some distance up the slope, but for q
time could not press on far from their
base. Meanwhile, the Russian guns from
across the river and the Turkish artillery

ly serious casualty in crossing; bat

falling on both sides Of the river. The

with wonderful stanchncss amid clouds
Of dust thrown up BY shells, which burst
around them. A Turkish monitor had

Of their battery, and then came down

for moment Soon after noon the
Russian infantry had crowned the
heights. A Turkish infantry deiach-
ment tried 10 work around and down
upon Sistova, but was thwarted by an
intercepting diminishing force. The loss
is estimated AT 1000; probably two
bridges will be laid at Simnitza. which
will be the main thoroughfare for the
Russian Army. One hundred thousand
men will march in column, which is now
