Describes Heroic Charge Of
Italian Volunteers Against

LoSDoN. Jan. 9-Tho Daily Cshronicls's
correspondents at Milan telegraphs an ac-
count by Gen. Ricclotti Garibaldi Of how
the second Of his five sons was killed fght-
ing for France and how the Italian vol
unteers conducted themselves brilliantly In
capturing three lines OF German trenches
at Courte Chaussee, few days ago.
The Garibaldians had been busy digging
tunnels for several days and had mined
the German trenches. The night before
the attack all spent their time writing
letters home. At o'clock the next morn
ing, REINFORCED by volunteers from Avig-
non, they advanced after the mines had
been exploded. They carried the tricolor
banner. and with shouts OF 'vive In
France" viva Trentino' and viva Gar
ibaldi,' swept across the bullet swept
field.
Not shot was fired and the Germans
in the first trench were conquer a with
the bayonet. From there the GaribaldIans
charged up and into the second line OF
trenches. French guns we're pouring shell
into the German ranks as the Italians
kept up their desperate advance and
fought hand to hand with the Germans
in the third trench. Finally they were
obliged 20 retire TO the second Rne. II
