communications, was brought by rail
to Valenciennes on the 22d and 23d
On the morning of the oath they We're
moved out to a position south Of
Quarouble TO support the left flank
of the Second corps.
With the assistance of cavalry
Sir Horace Smith Dorrien was en-
abled to effect his retreat to a new
position, although having two corps
of the enemy on his front and one
threatening his flank He suffered
great losses in doing so.
AT nightfall a position was occu-
pied by the Second corps to the west
of Eavay. the First corps 10 the right.
The right was protected by the for
tress of Maubeuge, the left by the
Nineteenth brigade in positions be-
tween Jenlain and Bruay and by cav
airy on the outer flank The French
were still retiring and ! had no sup
port except such as vas afforded By
the fortress Of Maubeuge. and deter

around my flank assured me that il
was his intention to hem ne against
that place and surround me.

Attacked by Four Corps.

At dayDreak II became apparent
that the enemy was throwing the bulk
of his strength against the left Of
the position occupied by the Second
corps and the fourth division. At this
time the guns of four German army
corps were in position against them
and Sir Horace Smith DOrrien report
ed TO me- that he judged it impossible
to continue his retirement at day
break. rs ordered, in the face OF such
an attack.
81 sent him orders to use his ut
most endeavors to break off the action
and retire at the earliest possible mo-
ment. as it was impossible for me to
send him support, the First corps be
ing at the moment incapable of move
ment.
The French cavalry corps under
General Sordet was coming I'D on
our left rear early in the morning and
| sent him an urgent message to do
his utmost to come up and support
the retirement of my left flank. but
owing 10 the fatigue of his horses he
found himself unable to intervene in
any way.
Outnumbered Four TO One.
There had been no time to in
trench the position properly. but the
troops showed a magnificent front to
the terrible fire which confronted
them. The artillery. although out
matched by at least four to one, made
a splendid fight and inflicted heavy
losses on their opponents.
AT length it became apparent that
If complete annihilation was TO be
avoided retirement must be attempted
and the order was given to commence
it about $50 in the afternoon. The
movement was covered with most de,
voted intrepidity and determination by
the artillery. which had itself suffered
| heavily. and the fine work done by
the cavalry in the further retreat from
I the position assisted materially the
final completion of this most difficult
and dangerous operation. Fortunate.
Nly. the enemy had himself suffered too
heavily to engage in an energetic pur-
suit
The retreat was continued far into
the night of the Goth and through the
9th and the 18th. on which date the
troops halted on the line from Noyen,
Chauny and LeFere, having then
thrown on the weight OF the enemy 5
pursuit.
French Come to Rescue.
"On the 9th and the 2Sth | was
i much indebted 70 General Sordet and
the French cavalry division, which he
/ commands. for materially assisting
my retirement and successfully driv-
/ ing back some OF the enemy on Cam

Free Toll Law To Be Repealed

Although every step for its consider

divided at Washington, it is now con-

both Houses at Washington and that
the Administration Policy will be
successful, There has been a good
deal of feeling among leaders of the
Democratic Party and the debate in
Lower House was very bitter at time.
Speaker Clark, it IS alleged, still feel

President will have the sohd delegation
of Kentucky backing the party at this
cfsis with the exception of the Hon..
