"War to Knife" Berlin
View of British Crisis

Berlin. Dec 10 (by wireless TO Say
evening newspapers yes
terday commented with great reserve
upon the latest news regarding the
British Cabinet crisis. All of them
lay emphasis upon the view that final
judgment should be postponed until
more tangible facts are reported.
The "Taglche Rundschau" compares
Premier Asquith's resignation with
that Of Premier Stuermer OF Russia,
remarking that in both cases the doc
trine Of "war to the knife" was pro-
claimed and desperate measures ad-
vocated.
Lloyd Georges intrigue has been
successful" says the "Zeitung am
Mittsg.r 1.-THE fall of Premier Asquith
means the disappearance, for some
time at least, of English Liberalism.
The "Deutsche Tageszeitung" reca Is
that a short time ago the Unionist
Morning Post" called Mr.. Lloyd
George the "only man" equal TO the
present situation. IL considers the
removal of Admiral Jellicoe from COM
mnnd of the grand feet az probably
connected with the present crisis.
The "Tageszeitung howeter, warns
the public against farreaching conclu-
sions. "A change of Cabinet or IN
leading positions is not necessarily, In
war time, a mistake or sign Of weak
ness" it adds.
"The fall of Premier Asquith marks
the disappearance of British Liberal
ism in the seas Of the worlds war
into which England has been dragged
by Liberal leaders under the pressure
Of the Unionist and lingo press" COM
ments the "Berliner Tageblatt."

Many in New Cabinet
Well Known TO u. S.

The new British Cabinet contains
men who ara peculiarly well known in
this country, and also many Of whom
the American public has heard little.
Lord Curton Of Kedleston, a peer
since 1908, was Viceroy Of India from
1893 20 1905, and since the outbreak
Of the war has been particularly in

With the British Annie. in France
via London, Dec. 9.--The present phase
Of tho lighting along the British front
may be classed as essentially imper-
sonsl by day, but intensely personal
not to say intimate, by night
During the short hours Of the gray
winter daylight big guns back OF the
lighting lines hurl tons of high explo-
sivcs against the German positions
The targets are far. far away, and on
thick, misty days the results Of this
continuous, harassing fire arc conjec-
tured rather than seen. This is the
impersonal side of war.
French Raiding at Night
With the coming Of night, however,
all is changed. Then men meet face to
face and hand 20 hand, and primitive
methods Of mortal combat come again
into play In the midst OF all the mod
cIn machinery and genius of war.
Styles in trench raiding change from
timc 10 time. just HOW Clt PVPNi"A
method seems 20 be to lombard a given
section of a trench and then set up a
barrage. or curtain OF shells. behind
which the raiding party crosses that
perilous strip Of shell-ploughed ground
known as mo Mans Land
The raiders dash into the trench,
clear il Of its defenders in any way
the exigencies require and then dash
home again for shelter from the inevi-
table retalistory shell fire from the
Germans. Many raiders come in drag
ging hapless prisoners behind them.
II is one of the strange psychologists
of this strange war that while they
carried death swiftly and surely into
the German trenches with the raiders,
these same English Tommies or Cana
dams or Australians a few minutes
later may be sharing their hot mid
night rations with their prisoners.
Used Indian Tactics
There was a time when the Cana
dians carried out raids in true Ameri-

PATROLS BUSY ON S0MME
Night Attack Repulsed, Says Berlin;
Teutons Attack In Vosges

London, Dec. 1O.-German Nassau re-
serves made a surprise attack on the
French trenches in the Vosges to-day
and succeeded in taking few pris-
oners and machine guns before they
were driven back.
A good deal of significance attaches
TO the movement Of British troops on
the Somme front, indicating, perhaps,
the approach OF new Allied attack IN
this sector. Berlin states that strong
British patrols" advanced during the
night east Of Gueudecourt. The col
umns were thrown back by the Ger
mans.
"At the southeastern extremity OF
Butte Mesnil the Germans exploded Two
mines, and AN engagement took place
for the possession Of the craters' Wnlen

French statement. Berlin reports that

There have been many instances
where. after work Of this character,
hot cocoa has been sent out to raiders
living under the German parapets 20
warm them and refresh them for the
attack.
On raids Of this sort men are al
lowed TO choose their own weapons
Few take revolvers and none rifles.
Rather terrifying trench knives have
been invented for the work, but ham
mers prove the handy and popular
weapon.
Capture Sleeping Germans
There are often cases where raiders
reach over, grab some half-asleep
German BY the back OF the neck, haul
him out and hustle him TO the home
line without disturbing the peace OF
the Silly night. The captured men
have been too startled 70 utter an out
crv until means had been taken TO
prevent them from doing so.
Service on trench raids is purely
voluntary. One Of the greatest troubles
commanders have is 70 select a limited
marty from the excess Of volunteers.
Some men volunteer time after time,
but often have TO wait their turn whlle
others have an opportunity.
Night life along the front line Is
veirdly picturesque. There are flares,
flares. flares. as far as the eye can
reach. bursting into brief brilliance
and then leaving the night darker than
ever.
Tape Guides
Sometimes the flares show tell-taie
white strips of tape laid forward IN
straight lines from German trench;
This generally means an attempted
raid. and the tapes are laid to guide
the attackers in the dark and prevent
them from getting twisted about, for
trench lines are extremely tortuous
and even in daylight it is difficult to
keep positions clearly in mind.
It was found early in trench war
fare that in the light OF fares white
faces were shown with uncanny rsdi-
ance. so now some captured Germans
have their faces darkly painted. BLACK
or brown wells also are worn.
