"There Is much talk about holding

Another significant factor is the at

that great attempts were made to capt
ure the German Socialists for the

CONTROLE AMERICAIN, AMERI.
CAN EXPEDITIoNARY ARMY, Aug.
Am American trench was blown up
late yesterday, but the Germans had no
hand in it.
The explosion was caused By curl
Gus accident. A soldier threw bomb
from trench in practice more than
thirty metres. When the bomb burst
n fragment whirled back into the
trench and fell into a box of grenades.
The flying fragment just happened TO
cut a time fuse of one bomb and the
whole box exploded
Fortunately, no one was near by, but
an American lieutenant thirty yards
away was thrown TO tbs ground un-
conscious and q French interpreter
even further away was knocked down.
The lieutenant was severely cut about
the face by bomb casing.
The American army had been put
ting realism into practice By using 1.-Two
bombs for the first time. Though the
bombs we're aimed at no one, some
caused casulties of minor nature.
The men threw the bombs from deep
trenches and were instructed TO keep
cover closely after hurting the gre
nades. But curiosity was too strong
for many of them. They wanted TO
see where their particular bomb hit and
Just how much soil it would tear up.
The bombs made only small hole, but
sent fragments of steel casing flying
in all directions. Several soldiers were
cut about the face by splinters, and
there were many narrow escapes.
Despite the admonitions Of their
French instructors, the Sammies seem
unable TO visualize the war during
training stunts. They lack the imagi-
nation Of the French, who practise just
as though the enemy was lurking in
the neighboring cornfeld. The Ameri-
cans insist on standing up in the trench
and keeping their heads up in the skir-
mish work, because it is only prac-
tice.
General Pershing completed his tour
of inspection yesterday morning. The
American army is doing as well as
could be expected.
