British Victory Over Turks in Mesopotamia
Allies Gain Five Hundred Yards, Along
Three-Mile Front After Furious Fight
ing on the GaIlipOi Peninsula,sil
Drive All Shipping From
sea Of Marmora, Preventing Re
iosorcements From Reach.
5 ING Battle Front.

LOndOn.--Wfth losses totaling 10O..
900 men, including $4,000 wounded
now at Constantinople, and further
handicapped by an insufficient supply
of ammunition. the Turks on the CALI
poll Peninsula are nearing the end Of
their resistance.
This information comes in dis
patch from Athens, following an OH
cial statement from the War ONCE
giving details Of general attack by
the British and French troops, sup
ported by fire from the feet, in which
the Turks were driven back distance
of 500 yards along a three-mile front
and two lines of their trenches were
captured by the Allies.
IS Gloom At constantinopie.
The Athens dispatch is from George
Renwick, correspondent of the London
Daily Chronicle, which says:
II have been able to gather from re.
liable sources to what extent the
recent fighting in the Gallipoli PENN
sula has affected the Turks and their
powers of resistance. The enemy's
losses must now be quite 100000.
There are at least $4,000 wounded in
Constantinople, and the constant pour
ing in of wounded from the battle.
fields into the capitol has had such a
serious and depressing effect on the
people that orders have been given to
send no more wounded into the city.
vThey are not sent to places on the
Asiatic side Of the Sea of MarnDora,
and several thousand have been sent
to Smyrna.
ut is obvious the Turks win be un-
able for long to stand such depletion
of their forces, strong though they
are The struggle for the Gallipof
Peninsula is like that in Flanders and
France. very largely a matter Of great
supply of munitions. OF late it has
been noticed that the Turks have been
extremely sparing in the use Of shells.
and the fact that supplies are short
and that the ability to manufacture
more is decreasing rapidly has just
been shown in rather an extraordinary
manner. Turkish shells found ON the
battlefield have the thickness Of their
iron casing reduced to a minimum
the strength being added by the use
Of wood inside the shell.

NO WAR PREPARATIoN.
Transfer OF Troops Only Routine,
Says Secretary Garrison.

Washington. No war" prepare
tions have been ordered or are con-
templated. either for the regular Army
or State militia, because of the Ger
man diplomatic or the Mexican situa-
ton. Secretary of War Garrison en-
phatically stated. Transfers of troops
to and from the Philippines and on the
Mexican border, he said. are merely
of routine character. Increase of the
border guard is not proposed, the Sec
rotary said. Some patrols are being
shifted and some summer maneuvers
are being planned, but the army heads
insist none is even remotely in the
nature of preparation for active
service.

Germany Sends Note Saying Il

ALSO EXPRESSES REGRETS
The United States Asked To Furnish
All the information Il Has
In the Case OF the
Cushing.

Washington. Germany, in q note
ca5led to the State Department by
Ambassador Gerard, at Berlin, express
ed regrets that, through IAN unfortun-
ate accident" German submarine
had t0rpedoed the American steamship
Gulfight and declared itself ready to
furnish full recompense for the dam
age thereby sustained by American
citizens"
|. In, the same communication the Ger
man Foreign ONCE said 1t had not yet
been possible to clear up fully the case
Of the American steamer Gushing, re-
ported attacked by German aero
plane, and asked that the United
States communicate the information In
Its possession concerning this incident.
Blame for the attack on the Gull
fight was placed by the Foreign Or
Ace upon the proximity Of two Brit
ish patrol boats and the absence from
the steamers freeboard of the dis
tinctive markings usually carried by
neutral ships in the war zone That
the attacked steamer carried the
American flag" the note added, was
first observed at the moment of firing
the shot"
Caused Three Deaths.
The Gulfight was terpedoed in the
English Channel I'VE weeks ago, while
bound from Port Arthur. Texas, for
Rouen, France, with oil She was
towed to Crows Sound and beached
for repairs. Two seamen were
drowned when the crew took to the
boats Immediately after the attack,
and the captain died of heart trouble
the next day.
The expression Of regrets and offer
OF PREPARATION follows the principle
outlined in the circular recently sent
to neutral nations by Germany dis
claiming any intention of attacking
neutral vessels carrying noncontra-
band cargoes.

With Small Arms.

London The German offensive has
been broken in the fighting north OF

from Paris.
Startling additional advances have
been recorded by the French troops,
which have gained the ascendency
over the invaders in a general battle
of extreme violence. Taking the Of
sensive with new vigor at this point,
the French have extended their ag-
gressive operations and have carried
the fighting to the Germans east of
Tracy LIE Mont, north of the Aisne,
where two lines of German trenches
were carried in single impetuous
charge.
Fighting has been renewed IN
Champagne on the heights of the
Meuse and in the Vosges, where the
Frenc harms have everywhere scored
new gains.
Heavy Losses inflicted.
Heavy losses have been inflicted on
the Germans in the fighting north Of
Arras, where their efforts to regain
their lost positions have been desper-
ateiy prosecuted, but to no avail, the
French arms have everywhere scored
in their newly gained ground at every
point of contact
Furious bOmbardment Of the French
lines, replied to with equal vigor by
the French batteries, characterized the
fighting at every point. Attacks in
force were carried out with great vigor
by the French, the enthusiasm running
high when it was seen that the Ger
man resistance was weakening.

cessation since the French attacked

the French in possession Of two-thirds

from Paris.
The Germans are contesting the
French advance with great obstinacy
and all the power of their batteries

Of sanguinary character are frequent
and costly. In three violent counter
attacks directed during the day the
Germans met with huge losses, but
they did not falter untfl hurled back
