news FROM
DARDANELLES
CHEERING TO
THE BRITISH
SIR IAN CLAIMS TO HAVE MADE
APPRECIABLE GAINS ON THE
NORTH SECTION LINE
(By Associated Tress. }

London, Sept. 2.-The British
public is greatly cheered by the ver-
sion of the recent heavy fighting in
the Dardanelles contained in the Of
fetal report of Sir Ian Hamilton last
night. Constantinople claimed that
the allies were repulsed with heavy
losses, but Sir Ian claims that his
forces on the northern section line
captured an important tactical
point commanding the Buvuk Ana
farta valley, east and north. and also
made appreciable gains along the
Australasian front. If the British
Colonials now dominate Anafarta,
their guns should have clear field
to fire upon one of the main Turkish
supply roads leading toward Acbi
Eaba. The Turks, however, have
another line of communication on
this part of the front. Constantine
pie has not admitted the allied ad-
vance.
The Russians are developing un-
expected strength in the north and
claim they are holding Hindenburg
and have gained local success near
wilma. Various changes have been
made in the Russian commands, the
rsost important of which is the re
turn of General Russky to the lead
ership of the northern army.

F. A. Hathaway, about thirty hav-

Superintendent Hathaway believes
that this would indicate that there
will be large number of bids Oh

dent that the board will secure a
satisfactory proposition for the sale {.
He was fearful, he said, that tha

time looked as though this country
might become involved in the war
might have sci ious effect on the
bond market. as did the Lusitaniu
incident. 1t appears, however, tc
