BURIAL TRENCHES
 MARK BATTLEFIELD

London. Sept -TeIegraphing from sezanne. the Times correspond- ent says:
 The territory over which today s battle of the Marne was fought is now picture of devastation. desolation and death. almost too awful to de- scribe.
 Even now many sons of the father land are sleeping their last sleep in the open fields and in ditches where they fell or under hedges where they crawled after being caught by a rifle bullet or piece of shell or where they sought shelter from the .Franctireurs who have never lost their natural dex- terity with the knife and who at close quarters and frequently throw away their rifles and fight hand to hand.
 Long lines of newly broken earth mark the graves of the victims. Some of these burial trenches are 150 yards long. The dead are placed shoulder to shoulder and often on layers. This gives some idea of the slaughteF that took place in this battle.
 The peasants, who are rapidly coming back to the scene. are marking the grave trenches with crosses and planting flowers above OF placing on them simple bouquets of dahlias. sum- flowers and roses.
 
 prolonged battle took place around the beautiful old chateau of Mondement on a hill six miles east of Sezanne. This relic of the architectural art of Louis XIV occupied a position which both sides regarded as strategica11y important. To the east it looked down into 8 great declevity in the shape of an immense Greek lamp with the con cealed marshes of St. Sond at the bot tom. Beyond are the down and heaths of Epernay, Rheims and Champagne, while the heights of Argonne stand out boldly in the distance. To the west is rich agricultural country.
 s'The possession of the ridge of Mondement was vital to either the at- tackers or the defenders. The con- fIict here was of furnace intensity for four days. The Germans drove the French out in a terrific assault and then the French guns were brought to bear, followed by hand-to-hand fight ing on the gardens and lawns of the chateau and even through the breach ed walls. The French again held the building for a few hours only to re-. man attack. On the fourth day they swept the Germans out again with shell fire, under which the walls of the chateau, although two or three feet thick, crumpled like paper.',

 In Austria, said the Martins, the feeling was chiefly against the Rus sians and servians. and there was lit tie talk against the other nations which are now warning with her All the men who were eligible seemed ready to go to war, however.
 Mrs. Martin was so overcome by the thought Of the heartrending partings which she had witnessed that she could not talk about them.
 Traveling conditions were very bad, as they were forced to wait hours for trains, which, when they did come, scarcely craw1ed along.
 When they arrived in Berlin, the Germans had just captured 10000 Rus sians and there was great rejoicing in the city. They saw 22 of the cannon and the horses which had been taken from the Russians, dragged through t'2 Q ,-t~eets Nrr. and Mrs. Martin were
