Modern Warfare

When troops occupy line, as in the
great battle in France, they are not
placed in continuous line, shoulder
to shoulder, but are massed in groups
holding the various points of especial
strength. These are selected at in
tervals of 100 yards to 400 yards,
placed so that the fire of troops in the
trenches can sweep all the interven-
ing ground. These supporting points
are then strengthened by double and
treble lines of trenches, with deep
cellars or bombproofs for the protec-
ton of soldiers when off duty and
for the storage of ammunition. The
garrisons range from $50 men to
1000, according to the importance of
the positions, which means that the
immediate firing line requires about
two men to yard of total length to
furnish a strong enough garrison to
repel all ordinary attacks. The sup
porting points may be considered as
marking the main line of resistance.
In order to reinforce them the artil-
lery is placed from onefourth
mile to mile in the rear, where it
can be well concealed by the folds of
the groundA Concealment has been
found even more valuable than shelter
for maintaining the service of the field

BISHOPS OF MEXICO APPEAL TO

The atrocities committed in Mexico
are so unthinkable that additional
proof has been asked by certain per.

The desired proof is contained in the

there is not a single Bishop who is
not either in exile or in hiding. The
names of the Bishops who give this

obvious reason that they would be

constitutionalists. Their names and

These two branches of the military

sitions, form the fighting line, or the

The commander cannot, however, risk
the outcome on his front line alone.

and as this is within range of the
enemy's artillery, the reserves are
sheltered by constructing in the re-
verse side of hills long lines of bomb
proofs, formed of excavated chambers
rooted over with logs and covered
with five feet of earth. When the
enemy delivers an attack it often hap
pens that the first line is overpowered.
The reserves then rush in from both
sides and bring an added pressure to
bear upon the enemy's column that
soon stops his advance, and that often
drives his attack back clear of the
original position. This same princi-
pie of reserve forces held in hand
to check the enemy's attack is car
ried out on larger scale for each d.
vision of the armies. It is by the use
of these forces that the German At
tack at Hollebecke was stopped after
its first success, and that the Allies
were able to recapture this town. With
the large numbers of troops that are
now massed in the fighting forces ON
both sides of the great battle in France
the minor successes reported from
day to day have little influence upon
the final outcome.-N. Y. Freeman's

****************
The energy with which the Germans
are pressing their attacks along the
User river in the westernmost corner
of Belgium shows that it is not DEM
onstration, but determination to OBJ
tain some military object. The oper-
atoms in this district confirm to some
extent the rumor reported from Dan
ish sources that the Kaiser has issued
orders for the capture of Dunkirk and
Calais at any cost.
The country in which this fighting
is taking place is especially disadvan-
tageous for the assailant. The low
lying ground is converted into bogs
by the rains, and the creeks have soft,
muddy bottoms, making them danger
GUS to ford. The fiat stretches en-
able the defenders to make use of
their rifle and artillery fire at full eff
fective range, while the assailants have
difficulty in finding natural features
to conceal their movements. The &C.
counts indicate that the Germans
pushed forward their night attacks
without delaying to gain superiority in
artillery fire. The costs in killed and
wounded of these assaults against in
trenched positions must have been
terrible. This great effort of the Ger.
mans to break through the Belgian
defensive line seems to have been
stopped for the time being, due to the
arrival of French reinforcements.
Both sides claim the advantage in
the fighting east of Ypres and between
Lille and Arras. No definite progress,
however, is given in the dispatches of
either side. In this fighting the forces
of the Allies seem to have become
intermingled to a large extent. Brit
ish and Belgians retreated along the
coast. French and Belgians are fight
ing at Mixmude. French and Hindus
are fighting east of Ypres. The Brit
ish have been mentioned at Armen.
there's, the French at Lille, and the
British again at Arras. From this
point south to the Aisne the line is
al hyy fha ~, o14
miles, opposite Scissors, and Craonne,
the first British army holds the line.
The original troops have been aug.
mented and to a large extent replaced
by the stream of reinforcements that
has been forwarded to this part of
the line. From Craonne to Switzer-
land the French again hold back the
German armies.
The plea of the British commander
in the Belgian field of operations for
supply of interpreters calls attention
to the serious difficulty that any allied
force must have in co.ordinating its
operations. Not only are the langu-
ages different, causing misunderstand-
ing among subordinates, but the whole
system of control of operations differs
among the three nations. Both field
guns and rifles are of different cali
bers, complicating the ammunition
supplies. Each detached unit can use
only its own cartridges. If it's supply
gives out in the fighting, as frequently
occurs, it cannot have recourse to Dor.
rowing from its neighbors. For these
reasons an allied force can never be
handled as promptly as an army of
common language and military meth
DDS. A very appreciable advantage in

TEN. In 1912 Germany spent, in round
numbers, $17O,00O,000 on her armies;
France the same year spent $180,O00,-
600; Great Britain, $150,O00,0O0, and
Russia, $226, 100000. With an annual
expenditure less than one-third that
of her three opponents, Germany has
been able to make showing nearly
as good as all of them put together.
The addition of the Austrian strength
has enabled the Germans to gain the

ries.
The superior efficiency of the Ger
man system is still more clearly shown
by comparing the populations and re-
sources of the contending countries.
In Europe alone the Germanic en-
pires have total population of 49,
100000, while that of the five allied
nations is 232,0O0,000, practically twice
as large. The true relative resources
are more nearly shown by the total
world population of the various states.
On this basis the 132,O00,00O Germans
are contending against 722,00O,00O Al
lies. After ninety days of war the
Germans are still spared the ravages
and the burdens consequent upon
hostile invasion. They are free to
devote all of their resources to the
maintenance of their offensive cam
paign. The overrunning of the north
of France and of all Belgium has
gained for them the supplies and other
resources of these districts and has
inflicted a corresponding loss upon the
Allies. In the eastern campaign the
occupation of Western Poland has
gained for the Germans like advan-
tage and has Offset the reverses of
their Austrian confederates in Galicia.
There is every evidence that the
fighting will be kept up through the
winter with undated fury. The Ger
man troops that started for the front
in the last week Of September were
already going out completely equipped
with fur gloves and sheepskin coats.
They evidently intended no let-up in
their campaign, and the Allies must
needs follow suit in order to avoid
further reverses.
When to the hardships of battle and
disease are added the sufferings due
to the rigors of winter, the seriousness
of the business of fighting will be still
more impressive. 1t is a queer psy-
Geological situation that the starving
of few non-combatants or the hard
ships of suffering cold can do more
than the killing of thousands of men
to make us stop to think of the ter
rible costs of war.
In spite of the checks of the last
week the end of twelve weeks of war
finds the Germans we'll ahead in the
fighting in every field. There is little
doubt that every German feels that
the national system has indicated it.
