A COMPLETE SURPRISE

The Germans were apparently COM
pletely. surprised by Monday morn
ing's attack in the valley of the Ancre.
An evidence of this was found in the
fact that the garrison Of the trenches
around Beaumont Hamel were pre-
pairing for breakfast at the moment
when the British infantry stormed the
position. The British, after partially
fclearing the underground galleries
and rounding up 700 prisoners, pro-
ceeded to eat their prisoners break
fast, telling the captives they would
be fed when they arrived in the Brit
ish lines.
A total of nearly 1000. prisoners
was sent to the rear, including a reg
mental commander who was captur-
ed in dugout with a major, an adju-
taht and number of other officers.
The majority of the prisoners are
Silesians, and according to the Brit
ish officers very inferior fighting ma
ftcrial. The German higher command
depended apparently upon the sup
pcsedly impregnable character of the
old front line and its strongly forti-
fled villages rather than on the stam-
ina Of the troops. The British officers
believe the Germans withdrew their
best men for service elsewhere on the
British front where the new and shall
lower positions to which the defend
ers have been formed demand greater
power on the part of the infantry.
LOSSES UNUSUALLY LIGHT
The British losses were unusually
light owing probably to the unexpect-
edly feeble support of the German
machine gun fire at Beaumont-H -Hamel
and st. Pierre-Devion. Large numbers
of German dead were found strewn
IN the wrecked trenches of the orig
inal main line. This line consisted of
four parallel rows Of trenches, the
last being flush with the western face
Of Beaumont -Hamel.
For some days past the sector at
ked and the area behind had been
bjected to successive bombardments
which rose to record pitch yester-
day and resulted in the demolition Of
large part Of the defenses.
The garrison accepted the morn
