Graphic " Details of How Our Forces Fought the
Trained Germans
Opening of the Battle.
The day was as peaceful one, warm
and sunny, and except that, the pre-
vious day had witnessed a further
bom'bardmen't of tihe stricken (town
of Ypres, ev'erythi'ng •seemed, quiet
in front of the iOana,clian line. At
5 o'clock in the afternoon: a plan
carefully prepared . was put into
execution against of r French allies'
on the left.. Asphyxiating gas of
great intensity was projected inibo
their trenches, probably by means
of force pumps: and pies laid out
under the parapets. The fumes,
aided by a favorable wind, floated
backwards, poi'sonin'g and disabling
over an extended .area those who
fell under their effect. The result
was that the French we're, compelled
to give ground for a considerable
distance. The glory which the
French army has won in this war
would make itUimpertinen't to labor
on the compelling nature of the
poisonous discharges under which
the trenches were lost. The Fremdh
did, as everyone knew they would
do, all that' 'Stout soldiers could do,
and the Canadian division, officers
and men, Book forward to many
occasions in the future in which
they will stand aide by aide with
the brave armies of France.
The immediate cone• quenaee of
this enforoed withdrawal was, of
course, extremely grave. The third
brigade of the Canadian division
was without any l'e'ft, 'or, in ,other
words; its left was in the 'air. It
became imperatively necessary
greatly to extend.. the- Canadian
lines to the left reaair. It was not,
of course, 'practioatble to move the
first brigade from reserve at a me-
m'ent''s naotice, and the line, ex-
• tended from. five to nine thousand
yards, was not n'ab:nal: y the line
that had been held by the, sillies at
five o'clock, and a gap still existed
on its left.
Capture of the Guns.
The new line, of which qur re-

day and night ; fought under their

The enemy, of course, was aware
Whether fully or not may perhaps
be doubted, of the advantage this
breach in the 'Bine haci given him,
and immediately began to push is
formidable series of attacks upon
the whole of the newly formed
Canadian salient.
If it is possible to distinguish
when the attack was everywhere so
fierce it developed with particular
intensity at this moment upon the
apex of the newly -formed line run-
ning in the direotii.n of St. Julien.
It has already b sem stated that
four British guns were taken in a
wood comparatively early in the
evening of the 22nd. In the course
of -that night, and under the heavi-
est machine gun fire, this. wood was
assaulted by the Canadian Scot-
tish, 16th battalion, of the 3rd
brigade, and the lath battalion, -of
the 2nd brigade, which was inter-
cepted for this purpose on its way
to a reserve trench. Th•e battalions
wore respectively commanded by
Lieut, -Col. Leckie and Lieut, -Col.
Bayle, and after a . most fierce
struggle in the slight of a misty
moon they took the position at the
point of the 'bayonet. At ,midnight
the second battalion., undaer;Lieut.-
Co'1.. Watson and the Toronto.regi-
men't, Queen's Own (3rd battalion),
under Lieut. -Col. Renziie,. both of
the 1st brigade, brought up much-
needed reinforcements, and though
not actually engaged in the assault,
were in reserve.
Line ,Never Wavered.
ALLIED FLA1\ I
WAS EXPOSED
But for Canadians, Germans Would
Have Been Well Behind the
British Lines.
A despatch from "London says:
The B,ritislh official "eye -witness"
in a narrative of the fba:ttle of Ypres
says the Germans had prepared to
attack the alli'e'd' line on the 20th,
but the wind, not being favorable
"for their use of asphyxiating
gases," they postponed it until the
22nd.
The gas, the narrative says, was
distributed along ibhe German front
line in front of the French position,
and the wind being from the north
it was blown directly on the
French. . The Germaan plan, acoord-
ing to the "eye -witness," was to
snake a sudden onslaught south-
westward, which, if successful,
would enable the Germans to gain
crossings of the canal south of Bix-
echoote and plane them we1Lbehind
the British line and in a position
'to threaten Ypres.
"Allowing time for the vapors to
take full effect on the troops facing
them," says the- "eye -witness,"
"the Germans charged forward
over the practioal'ly unresisting
enemy in their immediate front,
and, penetrating through the gap
thus created., pressed on silently
and swiftly to the south :and west.
eBy their ,sudden irruption they
weed able to over -run and surprise
a large proportion of the French
troops billeted, b:ehiand the front
line in this area and to bring some
of the French guns, as' well .tis our
own, under a hot rifle -fire at close
range.
"Our bank 'being thus . exp• osed,
the troops were ordered to retire
on St. Julien, with their left flank
parallel to, but to the west; of the
high road. The splendid resistance
of these ,troops (the Oan.mcaans),
who saved the situation, already
has been mentioned by the com-
mander-in-chief.

Line TB d-owai Across Southern Extremity of the
ltalllpoli Peninsular
A despatch from London says
The allies have made rapid pro
greet in their land' and sea attack
upon the Dardanelles -.the gateway
to Constantinople. Already the
British troops havethrowli a lane
across the southern extremity of
the Gallipoli Peninsula from the
Aegean coast to, a point northeast
of Eski Hieasarlik, a strongly forts-
fled position facing the straits, thus
isolating the Turkish stronghold at
DSeardddaenl eBl'1ahesr, at the very lip the
This has been done, says the Ad-
miralty, in the face of a strenuous
resistance by the Turkish forces,
who have combated every foot of
ground won with furious obstinacy.
Further north on the Aegean
side of the peninsula, at Gaba Te-
beh, and at .a point opposite to the
inland village of Saribair, addi-
tional landing forces have made
good their foothold on Turkish soil,
and have driven the opposing forces
back from the coast despite a vigor-
ous artillery fire. Gaba Tebeh is
about ten miles from the end of. the
Gallipoli Peninsula; Saribair is
about five miles farther. The troops
Who drove a line across the penin-
sula to the vicinity of Eski Hisar-
lik landed on a level shore some
three miles from the entrance to
the straits. Eski Hissarlik is some
three milers inside• the straits.
With the French army of inva-
sion holding Kuan Kale at the
southern or Asiatic side of the en
trance, and the British forces
sweeping across the lower fifteen
miles of the Gallipoli Peninsula, it
will thus be 'seen that the task of
aequiring a foothold has been ac-
complished with great speed. Sedd

base of supplies, and must .of ne-
cessity fall before many days ;

ven al; network of wire entangle-
ments just off the shore under the
sea swell and had dug' great pits
which were teethed with spikes.
The shore as well had beenfortified
with barbed wire.
A despatch from Landon says :
After very eieriouo fighting, in
which the Turks offered a stubborn
re.sisttanoe, . British troops have
firmly established themselves on
the Gallipoli Peninsula and made
considerable advance toward the
narrows of the Dardanelles, while
the French have °leaved Cape Kum
Kale, on the Asiatic side of the
straits, of the Turks. Thus it may
be said that, the second and in•ost
serious attempt to force the Dar-
danelles has been fairly launched.
Work of the Australians.
"Meanwhile the Australian and
New Zealand troops at Sari Bair,
who pushed on with the utmost
boldness aaf'ter the landing had
been engaged almost constantly
with the enemy, who made strong
repeated counter-attacks which in-
variably were repulsed. The Aus-
tralria,n and New 'Zealand troops
fought with a. fine spirit of deter-
mination.
"A fresh Turkish division was
launched against Sari Bair, pre-
oeded by a heavy artillery fire. A
hot engagement followed. The
enemy same on boldy time after
time, but the AustaaIi'an and New
Zealand troops defeated their every
attempt, and resumed the offen-
sive.
