AMSTERDAM. via London. July A.
The Berlin Tageblatt, discussing the
Anglo-French offensive. lays stress
upon the splendid railroad communica-
tions which it says are at the disposal
of the British and French armies. The
paper says that the railroad net to the
rear of the allied lines is very favor
able to the development of an offensive
and that the allies also possess numer-
Gus connecting lines between the wings
Of the operating armies.
While asserting that the British
gains in ground and prisoners is slight.

able course of the offensive nothing can
yet be said. We find ourselves" II
says. lat the beginning of an offensive
prepared by the enemy and awaited by
him with great expectations. but we
have no occasion to doubt the power OF
our resistance"

statement, under a Berlin date, saying
that the British offensive is nothing
more than an attempt to stave of the

HAND-TO-HAND FIGHTING
Remarkably Few Men Reaching
London Victims of Shells

LONDON, July 4.-Several special
trains loaded with wounded from the
battlefield in France arrived at the
three principal London stations last
evening. Great crowds assembled at
the approaches to the stations and
cheered the men, most of whom had
been wounded during the fighting Sat
urday.
In few cases the men We're still so
dazed that they were unable to tell

The kilties led the charge" he said.
They swept over the ground and car
ried the first line of battered trenches
without a single man falling. In the
outskirts Of the village, however. the
Germans had concealed a number of
machine guns. and a hurricane of lead
was poured into those in advance But
the Gordons never hesitated. They
leaped into the trenches, clearing line
after line at the bayonet point; then
pushed into the village. although it
was still being shelled by artillery AS
soon as they gained foothold the
elevation of the guns was altered and
curtain of fire poured onto the ground
behind, where the enemy supports were
massing.
Every yard of the village streets
was contested. but reinforcements
pushed up. and by nightfall the high
landers had secured possession"

the opening of the Anglo-French at
tack as follows:
For seven days and seven nights
guns of all calibers, from field guns to
long ship guns, have increasingly. ham
mered the German positions. CAMPS and
shelter behind constantly renew ed
waves of poison gas. The gas drifted
over, mingled with shells. which, as
they burst. threw out corrosive be-
numbing fumes.
The country between Ypres and
Roye was one vast hell of fire during
the long period of preparations. which
was double the length of that which
preceded the battle in Champagne last
autumn The only pauses came when
satiles were made to determine whether
an onslaught was possible. The Ger
mans first line trenches in many places
were completely under a hail of mis-
sizes against which the best pioneer
work was helpless.
1t came as relief to the Germa n
troops from an almost unbeaFable strain
when the bombardment yesterday
ceased and strong columns advanced.
