BY The ALLIES
IN OARDANELLES
Although Three Divisions of
Troops Were Landed,
Thousands Were Killed
By ASSOCIATED PRESS

Constantinople, Aug. 9, (yia Ber-

vile, N. Y.)-Enver Pasha. the Turs-
lsh minister of war, declared todav
that according to his information the
entente allies in their latest opera
tons at the Dardanelles had landed
three divisions of troops, cornprisiny
about 10000 men.
The losses among them. borver.,.
ne asserted, already had been verv
heavy.
Enver Pasha's statement was made
In an interview with a CORRESPONDENT
OF the Associated Press. He said.
Il am fully confident that We vill
be able to keep the allies in check
on the Gallipoli peninsula even If
other large reinforcements are conn
ing. We knew that the allies action
OF two days ago was due. and we
prepared for it, with the result that
we were not caught mapping.
According to my information. the
allies landed three divisions. ahopt
10000 men. No doubt part Of tber
no longer count, considering the
heavy losses they sustained in at
tacks incident to the new offensive.
Inc allied losses have been very
heavy so far in this new attempt to
force the Dardanelles."
Announcement Of the landing ~
fresh contingent of the allies at the
Dardanelles was first made yesterday

Hamilton to London. The British
statement did not specify the plaza az

Lodz, Russian Poland, Aug. 12.-
The city of Warsaw suffered compar-

ragged around it. Although fears had
been expressed that the Russians in
leaving the city might set the town
on fire did not do so. The water. gas
and electric plants were left in work

water mains damaged by explosions
The Russians retired in such haste
at the last moment that they omitted
to carry out many measures they had
planned. A whole park of automo-
biles and carriages which had been
called for removal was left behind.
An order to carry off the church bells
was only partly executed and MANY
bells were left hanging.
Most of the Polish resident declined
to follow the order to leave, generally
