With the American Army i'm the
Field, Oct. 10.-An instance df cow
ardly treachery On the part or cap
tUred German officer who had been
wounded and who had been offered
help by an American officer IL told NY
Lieutenant Edward Nichols, of Jamia-
cal MI Y
After the last big drive of the allies
in August. Lieutenant Nichols was
placed in charge OF company of sol
diers whose task it was to clear the
field Of American dead and wounded.
Although his duties did not require
him to aid the German wounded on
the field until the Americans were
disposed of. Lieutenant Nichols, who
is only twenty-three years old went
to the assistance of German infantry
officer who seemed more than any of
his comrades to be- in need Of succCF.
The lieutenant was in THE act Of
unfastening lis canteeR and giving
the wounded man drink or water
when the German drew revolver
while the unsuspectinE Americas
face was turned, and aimed III at the
head of his rescuer
Before he could pull the trigger,
however. a quick-witted American ser
eeant plunged his bayonet through
the Germans breast. The Germans
act was condemned even by his cap
tured comrades.

Lost Battalion Gomma7Ger, Weak
From Lack Of Fo5d, Replies 10 Call
To Surrender.
Verdun, Oct. 9.-The brightest spot
I'm the heroic and amazing story of
the now famous lost battalion
which belonged to the Seventy-seY-
enth Division, as yet untold, was the
climax to the fourth day of the troops
belleaguerment in the Argonne forest
When the men we're long foodless
and almost wholly without ammuni-
tion and when many were weak from
exhaustion, but not one despairing, an
American who had been taken prts-
oner by Germans suddenly appeared
at the little camp surrounded in the
valley
The man had been sent blindfOlded
from the German headquarters with
a typewriter note to Major Whittle-
sey, reading:
Americans, you are surrounded on
all sides Surrender in the name of
humanity You will be well treated
Major Whitlesey did not hesitate
fraction of second.
Go to helli" he almost shouted.
Then he read the note to those around
him, and his men, Notwithstanding
their WEAKNESS and hunger, and in
imminent danger every moment,
cheered I'D loudly that the Germans
heard them from their observation
posts.

their part in remarkable air naval
combat between an Austrian hydro
plane and two Italian torpedo-boats.
These naval-aerial duels, which ma
rine aviation has developed i'm the
present war, now takes place almost
daily, but the public hears Of them
only through an occasional decora-
tion of some gunner, aviator or sail
or who has particularly distinguished
himself
| The two italian tOrpedO-boats on
which Stagnaro and ContigEozzi were
serving as gunners were patrOllinE OfI
\ the Adriatin coast when THE approach
lOf hydroplane was perceived.
N When the black crosses On the hy-
HdrO'S wings became apparent Ehe n1a-
chime gums and anti-aircraft batteries
aboard the torpedo boats opened fire
n Forced to maneuver instantly by
\ this fire, the hydroplane lost itS firsr
chance of gaining the position neces-
| sary for dropping bombs on the boats
Instead, however, by suddenly dartine
/ low, it raked the decks Of both with
machine-gun fire.
! The adversaries again resumed the
maneuvering for position, and the
hydroplane dropped its first two
bombs, which fell in the water
\ Amid constant hail of fire from
both torpedo boats the hydr0planf
again got the position for attack, and
this time, although the bombs agair
\ fell in The water they exploded neaz
enough to demolish the gun at which
'Stagnaro and COntigliozzi were work
ing a. well aS Wreaking death and
havoc among the other gun crews
\ Although both were badly wounded
each insisted on taking the place OF
a dead comrade in one of the other
gun crews, and without loss of an in
stant's time kept up the fight.
| For over an hour the hydroplanes
and the two gunboats maintained the
contest, the hydro now raking the
boats with machine-gun fire and now
dropping bombs
In the end completely riddled with
machine-gun and shrapnel balls tine
hydro tilted and plunged into the wa-
ter, but unfortunately near enough to
the Austrian side of the Adriatic to
enable it, escape.
Both Stagnaro and Contigliozzi
were taken from their gums fainting
from loss Of blood and hurried to the
surgical room
