LONDON, Dec. i4.-The British line
northwest OF Jerusalem and midway |
between that city and jana has been |
advanced, dispatches received from Gem
eral Ailenby show. Contingents Of
Ghurkas carried, positions as far as the
mouth Of the Midieh. Fifty Turks were

in the vicinity Of Birch with good re-
suits.
Maior-General F. B. Maurice, chief
director Of military operations at the
British War ONCE, outlined the cam
paign that resulted in the fall OF Jeru-
salem to General Allenby's forces.
General Allenby entered Jerusalem
Yesterday" said General Maurice. The
campaign which led 90 this has been
carried out mainly by British terri
toriai troops. supported by small bodies
of Australian and New Zealand mount
cd men and British yeomanry.
In the campaign as a whole the
greater accomplishment has been not
the defeat Of tho Turks. but the con-
quest Of the Sinai Desert The troops
who fought at GAIA drank water from
Egypt pumped through an American
pipe line and were supplied over
hroad-gauge railroad laid clear across
ihe $50 miles Of the Sinai Desert. which
has defeated almost everybody that
tried 20 conquer Egypt FOR centuries.
Every ounce o. material FOR the pipe
line, the railroad and the other works

So far Cuba is the only war spot

of a central American League of Ma

AS regards the army, both from
what l have seen and what l have
heard, I am satisfied that the stand
ard OF sobriety and good conduct
among the men generally Is higher
than it has ever been before, and com
pares favorably with that prevailing
among the civil population. There is
no reason to fear that young man
of good principles and careful train
ing will be exposed to special tempta-
tions as soldier, or that he will find
himself unsupported In standing to his
convictions
