soon surrounded.
A regiment Of French cuirassiers
one OF lancers fell upon the assailants.
saber agaiost saber and lance against
lance. Won Schmitten ordered his bug,er
to sound the assembly call for a rally al
a second charge all together. But it was
too late. A bullet punctured the bugle
through the neck and It gave out mourn
full groan instead OF a spirited hlare Of
battle. The troopers were scattered be-
yond recall, and the French infantry closed
IN across their path so that they had to
cut their way out, singly and in squads.
Lieut.. Campbell, one of the fighting Clan
Campbell, who rode with the Bismarck
cuirassiers, seized the eagle of the French
cuirassiers to bear of as a trophy. His
hand was instantly shattered by bullet
and he was only rescued from the swarm
ing French horsemen by the desperat"
gallantry Of his comrade cnirassiers.
About one-half of the charging column
cut their way back to the German lines
and the most OF these were wounded. In
the cuirassiers officers and So men, and
in the uhlans officers and 30 men rallied
around the colors
Sad ms the defeat and disaster were to
those who rode, the charge paralyzed the
French for the moment, and Buddenbrock s
German division escaped the peril that had
menaced il, and even made Roadway to the
front during the confusion.
Half Of the afternoon had slipped by
and German re endorsements were slowl.
coming in. An attempt was next made IN
turn the French flank on the heights at
Mars Ia Tour twelve miles out of Metz
and the Sixteenth and Fifty -seventh West.
phalian infantry (Wedel's brigade) were
nearly destroyed by the fire of French shell
and chassepot. The Sixteenth regiment
suffered the heaviest loss OF the day, its
5000 fresh men dwindling to 100 in one
short affair. So hot was the fight that the
French, in attempting to seize its colors,
tore off bits off the Gag and broke the top of
the staff, but the Germans got away with
the main stat and the shreds that chung
to il.
AT this juncture occurred the third cav
airy charge OF the day. Wcdel's West
phalians were retreating, and the artillery
supporting them was about to be pounced
upon by the exulting French battalions
that pursued Wedel. Gen. Count Won
Brandenburg then dashed in with the
First and Second Dragon Guards, striking
both tanks of the French column, a re9i-
ment to each. Again Germany's impetu-
Gus squadrons facing the leaden hail from
mitrailleuse and chassepot, broke through
the front line and hurled disorder upon
the surprised mass in rear. An eagle and
a gun were taken from the Ninety-third
French, but as before Bazaine trotted out
fresh reserves and surrounded the Ger
mans with heavy odds. The First dra-
goons lost 10 officers out of 49, and
was brought out minus $50 horsemen
that rode in by its youngest captain. the
Prince of Hohenzollern. But the Fifty
seventh regiment and the exposed artillery
were partly rescued, and the daring ORA
COON Guards had not ridden to death in
vain.
