mo Quarrel From Our Mob"
This is the statement of Ohio
Bromfield of the Signal Section,
British Royal Engineers:
I'm doing and going as I'm
told, not worrying, but taking
things as they come. I've slept
in barns, wool stores. cinemas,
casinos, dock sheds, and for a
time had the stars as a counter
pane. The fighting has been very
fierce and close: as on man said.
oh, amt IL 'ot!' We are out
numbered, sometimes 10000 to
10000 but our boys stick to them
and have played havoc with their
mass formations The Maxims
have cut them down like corn,
and when we charge with fixed
bayonets see 'em run like rats.
They will get no quarter from
our mob Their dead were 80
thick that their reinforeements
couldn't advance over the top of
course, we lost, too"
Private Charles Dudley Moore,
of the Yorkshire Light Infantry,
who was at Mons, had the mis-
fortune to be wounded half an
hour after he went into his first
battle.
THE FIRST MAN
HE EVER KILLED
THE shrapnel shells of the
Germans were bursting over the
trenches where we we're lying and
| was struck in the foot with
piece of shell which took the sole
of my boot clean off. Five min
utes later when l was trying to
help a fellow near me who had
been hit in the shoulder, I was
struck in the right thigh by a
pellet from a shrapnel shell.
fired one more shot after that. l
aimed at the driver of a German
machine gun and killed him.
This was my first experience
of actual fighting and l can tell
you IL is a funny sensation at
first to see the shells bursting
near and around you, to hear the
bullets whistling by you, and to
see men being killed and wound
ed near you, but you soon get
used to il all. 1t tries your nerves
a BIT at first, but YOU soon get
in the way of it,"
SING "GET OUT
AND GET UNDER
Private ]. r. TAFT of the Sec
ond Essex regiment, who was
wounded at Mons. also speaks
with respect of the German artiI-
lery:
We had several charges with
their infantry. We find they do
not like the bayonets. Their rifle
shooting is rotten. I don't be
lieve they could hit a haystack at
100 yards. Their field artillery
Is good, and we don't like their
shrapnel. l heard our men sing
ing that famous sing, Get out and
get under and know that for an
hour in our trench ft would make
anyone keep under, what with the
shells and machine guns. l have
been in three battles In four
days"
A Guardsman wounded near
Compiegne has given q vivid ac-
count of the fighting there and
of the capture of ten German guns
by the British troops:
I'VE were in q field" he says.
when the Germans dropped on
us all of a sudden as though from
the sky. The first hint we had of
their presence was when a battery
of guns on the right sang out,

kill and had killed during the
day. They were laughing and
joking all the time.
There were chaps, too, COM
ing in and having their wounds
dressed and going Off again to
have another go at the Germans"
REGIMENT FIGHTS
WITHOUT SHIRTS
A private of the LIST Royal
West Kent regiment, wounded
relates a thrilling story of the
battle of Mons.
1T was Sunday" he said.
I'VE we're at Mons, billeted in
farm yard and we're having a
song and watching people home
were very kind hearted, and we
were given their prayer books as
souvenirs.
About 1890 an aeroplane ap-
peared overhead, throwing out
some black powder. After this
shrapnel burst overhead, ac-
quainting us of the fact that the
Germans were in the vicinity. All
was confusion and uproar for the
moment, because we were not
armed, and our shirts and socks
were out to wash, that being the
only chance we had to get them
washed. 1t did not take us long,
however, to get in fighting trim
and to go through the town of
Mons to the scene of operations,
which was on the other side of a
small canal that adjoined.
with darkness upon uN we
fixed our bayonets and lay in
wait in case the enemy made an
attempt to rush us. About N D.
m. we received orders to retire
over the canal.
ARMY WATCHES
DUEL IN AIR
There was one interesting
sight ] saw as the column was on
march, and that was a duel in the
air between French and German
aeroplanes. II was wonderful to
see the Frenchman maneuver to
get the upper position of the
German, and after about ten min
utes or a quarter of an hour the
Frenchman got on top and blazed
away with a revolver on the Ger
man. He injured him so much as
10 cause him to descend, and
when found he was dead. The
British troops buried the airman
and burned the aeroplane.
We were fortunate enough not
to be disturbed that night, and at
dawn we again stood to arms and
we found the Germans close up
on our heels. l saw a battery in
front of us put right out of action.
There were only about six men
left among them and they were
engaged in trying to get away
the guns. This disaster was due
to the accurate shell firing OF the
German artillery. In their effort
the brave gunners were not sue
eessful, owing to their horses
being killed.
1T was interesting 10 see an
officer engaged in walking
around the guns and putting
them out of action, or, in other
words, seeing that they would be
of no use to the Germans. This
action required a great deal of
bravery under the circum-
stances. because the enemy con-
tinued to keep up the heavy fir
ing

DREN STARVING

Sapper Mugridge said that one
of the worst sights he Witnessed
was that of the starving women
and children on the road.

he said. and we couldn't help
them. I felt as if / should have
liked to carry some of the old
women. A lot of the women had
milk in bottles and were feeding
their children from them.

As to the spirit Of the British
troops, Mueridge stated:
You would have thought they
we're at a football match. They
we're lying in the trenches with
German shells flying al around,
and they would make bets as TO
how many Germans they would

ONLY VILLA BLOCKS
PEACE IN REPUBLIC

Carranza Will Reach
Terms Of Surrender.

WASHINGTON, July 2s.-General
Pancho villa today appeared to be
the only stumbling block In the way
OF peace In Mexico, according to diplo-

alist junta here, believes that the cob
ference soon to be held between rep.
resentatives of President Carbajal and
General Carranza will come to terms
for the transfer of the reins Of govern
ment to the Constitutionalists.
THIS was demonstrated by the fact
that the rebel headquarters here prac-
tically have been deserted. Both of
the representatives OF the first chief
have gone south to be on hand for the
triumphant entry into Mexico City.
Those Constitutionalists remaining
here issued a statement today assert
ing that General Carranza and his vic
torious followers will enter the Mexf
can capital before the middle of Au-
gust. They declare that they have res
son to believe that the Carna3ai ae.e-
gates have been given plenary powers
by their chief and they will accede to
the demands of Carranza for uncondi-
tional surrender. $3.50
