GAS SHELLS
SUCCESSFUL
Canadian Man Receives
Medal for Calamity
in Action.

Canadian Headquarters In France.
Sept. 1.-THE most notable develop
ment OF this part OF the front during
the last few days is the increasing use,
OF gas shells by the enemy in retail
alton for he frequent projection OF
gas cylinders into the German lines.
The a projectors have been one
Of the big mechanical successes of the
campaign. Almost every prisoner who
is brought in tells of severe Iosses
through h use of a against the
German troops in Lens.
Men captured two days ago state
That last week a company OF the First
guard reserve regiment lost twenty
dead when a gas shell exploded In the
cellar where they lay asleep. Before
they could get their masks on the gas
had overcome them. Another COM
pany OF the same regiment had IT;
which seven died before their /. res
moval to the hospitals.
Il failure of Germany to obtain
sufficient supplies Of rubber probably
ts a contributing cause Of the gas
fatalities. The rubber Of the German
masks Is poo and tears readily.
Lately masks Of soft flexible leather
have been served out to the enemy on
this section of the front. The leather
Is kept well oiled and is easily put ON
but not so quickly Is rubber.
The military medal has been con-
ferred on Sergeant Morrison Jordan,
of a Nova Scotia battalion whose acts
OF gallantry are thus recorded:
"On August Is he attacked the crew
of a heavy trench mortar, killing a
number Of h crew, capturing the
trench mortar and twelve prisoners.
Later during a strong counter attack
been put out Of action he organized 81
bombing party and s. inspired the
men of his platoon with his courage
and determination that all the Ger
mans who had entered the trench
were killed. He himself bayonetted
several and 1t was largely owing to his
courage and. fighting ability that the
situation was saved"

Councils, Witnesses Say

PETROGRAD, Aug. 28.-At the trial
for high treason Of General Soukhom-
linor, former Minister Of War, Cen
eral IvanoH, former commander in Vol
hynia and Galicia, testified yesterday
he had information showing that mill

Austria by way of Warsaw.
General Velitchko, deputy director
Of the Engineers Corps, said be re-

the defeats of the Russian army. As
soon as he was appointed Minister OF
War, the witness testified, he sup
pressed various councils created for
the purpose Of discussing questions OF

Velitchko said could not be held re-

Allies See No Harm
In Blunt Story of
Russian Commander
By Arthur s. Draper

LONDON, Aug. 2s.-General Korni-
lofts frank story of the state Of anarchy
in the Russian army and the impending
economic collapse contains nothing not
we'll known here except with regard to
few details. When Arthur Hen
derson, labor leader and ex-Cabinet
member, and Albert Thomas, French
Minister OF Munitions, returned to
Great Britain and France. respectively,
they lost no time telling the truth
about Russia, and their haste to sup
port the Stockholm conference was due
to their conviction that that was the
best way TO help the country.
The blunt truth related b. Kornilof
can DO no harm. The Central Powers
know just as much about the desperate
situation in Russia as the Allied gov
ernments. The steps Kornllof has
taken 10 suppress mutiny and anarchy
are still far short of those required,
for to-day's communicate reports
further retirement of the Russian
troops before they were even attacked.
