Terrible Slaughter at Epchy.

London March 24.-The Germans swarmed over No Mans Land in such great numbers in their first attacks, that it was impossib ble for the British gunners to miss them, telegraphs the correspondent at British headquarters of the Daily Express. Two batteries of Epehy fired steadily with open sights at 400 yards for four hours. Telling of the thrilling exploit of Leicestershire troops the correspond ent says:
 "Persicres was held for a time by two companies of Leicestershires as- sisted by two ranks. The enemy kept pressing them back, however, and one company was completely cut off Instead of surrendering they held to the village until only a few men were left. Then, the surviving officer led them in a charge, through two lines of Germans and they fought their way back to our main body"
 The British in their retreat defend ed every hill, ridge and fortification with the greatest stubbornness. mes geS from German war correspond ents on the western front say, ac- cording to a Central News dispatch from Amsterdam. The British artil- lery splendidly sacrificed itself in covering the retreat, the batteries only breaking up when the German storm ing troops arrived within a few hun dred yards of the positions. The British gunners then fired their last ammunition and retired.
