Cola Morrison Tells- How They Came Up Through Crowds of .Fugitives. Lieut.-C'ol. Morrison, D,S,O., commanding officer of the 1st Ar- tillery Brigade, tells of the stand the 'Canadian gunners made. - A striking feature of the story is that half of 'the 1st Inffantry Bri- gade, under Brigadier -General Mercer, sof Toronto, and one Bat- tery under Lieut. -Col. Morrison, were all that filled the gap, a mile and a half wide, immediately after the French 'troops had 'been "forced to retire before the German gas at- tack, Oro April 22, he says, the guns were going in the afternoon from Poperingue to Ypres trenches, two half 'batteries under Lieut, -Col. Maclturen of Ottawa, were already in the trenches with the 2nd and 3rd 'Canadian Brigades near St. Julien. I was on the road with a battery and the ammui» tion eel- tinnn two miles west of Ypres, and the 1st and 4th Batteries, under Major Ralston and Major Shztrman were at Poperingue, preparing to. come up. As I approached Ypres tremendous firing could 'be heard about two miles to our half-lerft,. and it seemed to be coming nearer, preceded by a great cloud of dust and smoke. The Fugitives. It 'was about 5.30 in the after- noon. I halted my column and rode ahead to reconnoitre. I had not gone half a mile when I saw broken troops -French -streaming across country ahead of the duet cloud, mounted and on fobt. Then came the ammunition waggons without antillely, horses with even on them but no guns behind thesis, baggage waggons, infantry in broken groups and singly, all heading towards Poperingue, Flying People. "I rode back and selected posi- tions .for any guns beside the road and waited, expecting every min- ute to see the Germans following the shells that were following 'the retiring French and beginning ' to smash near as. Then came 'the saddest sight of all, the nii.seralble inhabitants of Ypres, chiefly wo- men and children and very old men, streaming along -the road, many of them wounded, many more too ;young or too old to .hobble along. "With these came wounded •sol-' cliers, partially asphyxiated sof•, die's, auto ambulances; traction 'motors, staff officers in lacing mo- tors, trying to get to th,e front; behind all, the town .of Ypres be- ginning to blaze in the 'thickening gloom under a very hell of a shell fire." Steady as Veterans. He says he was afraid his column would be swept back by the back rash to the rear, hut they steine d the crowd. "My men were cool as veterans, cooler than many voter - ass I have seen," he says. Communicating with headgeat' tens he was told to stand fast, and moved off down the road till the stream of fugitives had passed. At 3.30'in the morning they got or:- ders,'to advance and support Gen- eral Mercer's brigade at the Ypres canal, Supporting Merger. "I haat just got my' one battery in on the canal bank when Mer - car's half -brigade was ordered to Alen have to be spendin' traenty-- advance. Later we found that his fooa hod's a day in 'bed, two regiments and my one 'battery were all that filled the gap that the French troops had. left in the line, about one and one-half miles wide.

A despatch from Rome says: An official statement made at the main headquarters of the Italian army say e i that the Italians are now solidly e - tablished in the Austrian city s Gradisca, which, it is stated, has. be h` ' held ' by the - Italian n a dvanced troop D j for some days. The full. statemen - i which is signed by Lieut. -Genera e Count Caclorna, chief of staff of th - Italian army, follows: "Some progress has been made different points along the front. e reconnaissance party beyond Monte nero'founcl in the gorges recently ex ee s of en s t, l e At A plored by our fire the wreckage of rifles and machine guns abandoned by the enemy, and the bodies of forty Austrians. "Enemy forces comprising six bat- talions, coming from Plezo (in Aus- tria, 89 miles north-west of Gorizia) attempted, according to statements made by prisoners, to take our troops in the region of Montonero in the rear. The attempt was frustrated by the energetic resistance and rapid manoeuvring of the bersagliere' and Alpine troops. "We are now solidly established in the city of Gradisca, which has been held by our advanced troops for some days." Successful operations announced by General Cadorna in three sectors the war theatre have a definite Yalu to the invading army. On the Tyro Trcntino front the Italians, thanks t I the latest victorious achievements now occupy the principal dominating position's everywhere: The Italian have steadily maintained a foz•war movement. At Cortina d'Ampezzo one' of the most northerly points i v The Trcntino sector, our allies have repulsed the Austrians who oppose their passage into the heart of the country. The roads leading from Fal zarego to the valley of Drava are no commanded by the invaders. Very se vera fighting preceded.the driving out of the Austrians from unusually strong positions. In the forefront of the struggles were the Alpihists, whose splendid re- cord already in this war has shed fresh glory on the military, annals of Italy. Broken by artillery fire, the Austrians nevertheless tried conclu- sions with the Italian infantry. Des- perate fighting lasted two days and culminated in dislodging the Aus- trians, who retreated in some confu- sion, abandoning artillery and mud - lions to the victors. ,1. ��- Law Takes Its Course.

H a a LEMBERG SAVED FROM THE ENEMY Russian Infantry Defeated Germans in Galicia with Surprising Ease. A despatch from Petrograd says Russian infantry with surprising ease hasinflicted to clad a succession of great de- feats on the Germans in East Galicia The main attack of the enemy was conducted at.Moszicic with heave guns on the railways, but it was spent before the Germans reached the barb- ed wire entanglements in front of the main position. They retreated in ut- most disorder, leaving thousands of dead. Simultaneously the Russians start- ed an enveloping movement against Gen.. Linsingen's army which had crossed the Dniester River. The Rus- sian infantry with magnificent dash attacked the Germans, who had a quantity of three-inch guts, and drove them froin the woods. They annihi- lated one division and captured be- sides 261 officers, 9,300 men, 17 field guns and 49 machine guns, The fight- ing lasted two clays. The Germans are now entirely southward of the"Dniester• Evidently they intended to 'develop in enormous force here, They were headed by Prussian Guards, and advanced rapid- ly towards Haliez, from where they proposed to conduct the main attack on Lemberg. All the movement, how- ever, was easily frustrated. Thr. Ger- mans are now gathering south of the Dniester, apparently waiting for re- inforcements. They have lost in the past six weeks more lives 'in Galicia than in the previous six months against Russia. Everywhere the Rus- sians are in close contact with the enemy.

The proportion of prisoners* .on the basis of nationality is three' Austrians to one German. Conse- quently roughly epeairing, there are three thousand Austrians, one thousand Germans and a .fele-cs seers or so -of Turks, The Austri- ans give no trouble whatever the Germans need more looking after. Very few, if -any, of the Gerrnans are on outside work. They belong to the class whose demeanor gener- ally is such as to Ball for them in- ternment in btirracks.
