Passed to the Offensive.

"T'p TO the night Of October %,
therefore, not only nave we nam
tanned our position against great
effort on the part of the enemy TO
break through TO the west or to force
ms hack. which was started on the 2Oth,
hut we have on our left passed TO the
offensive. These six days, as may be
gathered, have been spent by US IN
repelling a succession Of desperate on
slaughts.
at is true that the efforts against
us have been made TO a certain extent
nv partially trained men, some OF
whom appear TO be suffering from d
lack of food, but ii must not be Tor
gotten that these troops, which are al
great force. have only recently been
brought into the field and are compsr-
atively fresh. They are tghtlng also
with the utmost determination IN spite
of the fact that many OF them are
heartily sick of the war.
THE struggle has been OF the most
severe and sanguinary nature, and
il seems that success Will favor that
side which is possessed of the most
endurance or can bring up and ming
fresh forces into the fray:
Though We have undoubtedly IN
flicted immense loss upon the enemy
they so far have been able TO fill up
the gaps in the ranks and TO return
to the charge, and we have suffered
heavily ourselves.
zone feature of the tactics nor
employed has been the use OF cavalry
in dismounted action. Tor on both sides
many of the mounted troops are fight
ING in the trenches alongside the IN.
fantry. Armored motor cars, armed
with MaXims and hght qulck-hrihe
gnns. have also played a successful
6art on our side, especially helping &c
eject the enemy lurking in village;
and isolated buildings. Against such
parties the combined action OF the
ick-frer against snipers in building:
and the Maxim against them wher
they are driven into the open is mos
eificaclous.'

On Firing Line Twenty-four Hours.

VIZ illHE isiht 'p"' '''H'"'
"The men in the firing line were on
duty for twenty-four hours at time
and brought rations and water with
them when they came on duty. for
none could be sent up to them during
the day. Even the wounded could not
be removed until dark. A preliminary
retirement of the units was, therefore,
carried out gradually under cover OF
darkness.
THAT the Germans only once opened
fire upon them while so engaged was
due to the care with which the opera
ton was conducted, and also probably
20 the fact that the enemy was so ac-
customed to the recurrence of sounds
made by the relefs of men in. the fir
ing line and by the movement of sup
ply trains below that they were misled
as TO what actually was taking place.
"What the operation amounted to on
our part was the evacuation of the
trenches under carefully made arrange
ments with the French. who had to
take our place III the trenches, the re-
tircment TO the river below-in many
eases down a steep slope, the crossing
of the river over noisy plank roadways,
of floating or repaired bridges which
we're mostly commanded by the enemy's
guns and the climb up to the top Of
the plateau on the south side.

London, Nov. 3.-Another eyewitness
account from the battle front in France
and Belgium, written as previously by
Colonel +. d. Swinton, of the intelli-
Gencc department Of the British Gen
eral Staff was given out to-day by the
Official Press Bureau. II bears the
date Of October 26 and reads as fol.
lows:
October 25. 191i.-Before the nara
tive Of the progress of the fighting
near the Franco Belgian frontier sub
sequent TO October 20 is continued
brief description will be given of the
movement of n certain fraction of our
troops from the former line facing north
and east of Paris to the present posi-
ton facing east in the northwest cor
ner of France.
by this movement a portion of the
British army has been enabled to join
hands with an incoming and growing
stream of reinforcements. This is now
an accomplished fact. as is generally
known. and can therefore be explained
IN some detail without detriment.
Mention will also be made of the
gradual development up to October 20

quarter Of the theatre of war, which
recently has come into such promi
hence.
Compared with Mukden.
an its broad lines the transfer of
strength by one combatant during the

remarkable. 1t can best be compared
with the action of the Japanese dur

eral Oku withdrew a portion of his
force from his front, moved it north
ward behind the line and threw it into
the fight again near the extreme left
OF the Japanese armies.

the coast line being reached by the Al

earth which stretch like partitions at
intervals across trench so as TO give
protection from a lateral fire.
Even when there was cover such as
that afforded by depressions or sunken
roads on a hillside below and behind
our firing line any attempt was met by
fierce bursts of machine-gun and shell
fire.

JIG. White CO.
LANDS BIG JOB
in THE Orient

According to an article in a bulletin
received recently by H. NJ. Dougherty,
engineer in charge of the local branch
OF the ]. G. White Engineering Com
pany, the financing and construction
of the Huai river works for the pre-
vention of floods, the .$2,000,000 con-
seryation project recently committed
by the Chinese government to the
American Red Cross Society, will be
carried out by the j. G. White Engi-
neering corporation The formal des-
ignation of the company as contracting
and financial agent was made by Miss
Mabel Boardman, chairman Of the
executive committee of the Red Cross.
A commissioner from the Chinese gov
eminent already is on the way to- New
York City, and five distinguished
American engineers have been recon-
mended to take charge Of the project
Three years have elapsed since the
Red Cross FIST suggested that China,
instead of spending millions to relieve
the suffering caused almost annually
by the overflow of the Huai, should
make the river keep within its banks, =
says the New York Times THE Chi
nese thought we'll of the plan but on
account of the international difficult
ties involved in raising the money and
granting concessions for the work,
hesitated to carry out the project un.
less the Red Cross would use It's
good offices in connection with the en-
terprise. The designation of the j.
G. White Engineering Corporation
makes it certain that American money
will finance the project and Ameri-
can brains solve the engineering prob
lens involved"
