A letter written by u llrltlsh ofllcer, who now holds n prominent place with the forces at the Gallipoli Pe ninsul i hun been received in New York. The World is permitted to pub lish lt willi the understanding that the identities of the men mentioned in it will not be disclosed. The letter with personal details omitted, fol lows: Well, by now you will have seen by the papers that we have a damned sight stiffer job to do than any of us thought I will begin "from the time wc landed and tell you all we've been through. On tim 2nth pf April. Sunday, at dawn, the whole fleet began bombard ing the end of tho peninsula where we were to land. At 7 a. m., we be gan landing.* The Dublins were in open bo .tn towed by launches from men-of-war. ? They were practically wiped out before our eyes, losing 660 men and twenty-one olflcers. We were in a ilut-bottomed collier and were beached on tao sand. Unfortunately, It was shallower than they thought and we ran aground further out than wo expected. We had to run down a gangway on to two lighters connected by a lifeboat, and then wo had to jump Into the sea up to our armpits and wade ashore. Tito Turks were heavily entrenched, and had snipers tn the gangway and boats and a ma chine gun playing upon the water where we had to jump !n. About ono man in every ten got ashore without being hit. F very Officer Hit H. 's company * went ffrst. Every offi cer was hit and nearly all the men. Ow went next, and all of the officers ex cent W. were hit. J. and I went next, but only half of our company was sent, as they decided to walt. J. got aHhoro all right, swimming. I went down to the boats, which by now. were full with dead and dying, and was sent back. However, at midday I went ashore by myself to join .the major, and three men followed me. We lay all day under cover of a small tank about five feet high. At dusk J. and I collected all the men who were not hit (about 40 out of 100) and we toole up a kind of outpost position to cover the Inad ine of tho force by night. Just as I had nut out my aentry groups and wus going around them with J., he was hit in the throat. , He was dead in a few minutes. That left mo the senior officer on shore. It was a hell of a night. Wo landed the rent of tho regiment and at dawn had whp.t remained ot us and one company of the Dublins, and two componios of the Hants. I buried J. at dawn, ra I did not know what would happen to his body when we advanced. Our casualties were pretty stiff. W., an adjutant, waa hit In the leg; P. killed, hit in the head Major M., blt in the chest, and O. in the shoulder; H. on arm shattered; L. had his re volver ahot into bis side; R. shot In the hands; L. nftot in both legs (he's lost one), and various "temporary" gentlemen in the shape of new Sec ond Lieutenants knocked out. Lose Heavily Takuhr Tillage. Wo had orders to storm a castle at 8 o'clock. This we did with the bay onet, but got hung up. at a village which was full of snipers and ma chine guns. It took us till 2 p. m be fore we captured the village, and lost heavily. At 2:30 o'clock we had the far side of the village and were right '.udor a high hill with a redoubt on Ute top. The Turks were within ten and tuteen feet of us in a boat, and we fairly let them have lt. Two fel lows were recommended for the Vic toria Cross that day, both killed since. We were in full posset Jon of the hill by 5 p. m., so took np an outpost position half a mlle beyond it for the night. During tho night 2,000 French troops arrived and the noxt morning relieved na We were allowed no rest, however and were pushed off to vAe left i vo miles to Intrench and act !& ~ee<>rve to the division which was adv?-vt lng that night. Tm* next morning we were sent on th/co miles to' the trenches occupied (luring the previous evening, but on getting there we heard mat there waa no ammunition in the firing line, so wo pushed on and reinforced the-:. General Retreat Began. At 4 p. m. Gie French troops on our right began to f til back, so Gmt a 5 p. m. a general retlrenv-nt com menced. It. was heit. The fire" waa very heavy, hut lt we had not retired we could have taken a village called Kr lt bia and a bill called Achl Baba, which- .we haven't gotc yet We fill back.to'Gie old line of trenches and there dug in. Luckily, Gie Turka did not attack, for we were tcrrlb-y ex hausted Tho next morning we f.dvanced I, 000 yards and the whola division dug in a long line of trenches from aaa to sea, with orders to hang on at all costa GU reinforcements arrived. The next few days were damnahe. The Turks knew wo were walting for re inforcements and ?attacked every night. We got no sleep hy night and were heavily shelled by day. We kill ed Uionaanda ot Turka one night when Uley mada an attack with 88,000 men. On Gie nighUolMag. 1. I woke np ?ind found Gie '.Turks right on top of Bloody iy Miles rdanelles us. We had a lively twenty minutes with plenty of bayonet lighting. A gr-;..' many of my company were bayonetted that night and on the fol lowing morning I was the only offi cer left and 32 men out of 240 who hud left horne. We fought from 9:45 until dawn the next morning never j stopping for u moment. The Turks shout "Allah!" when they charge, und it is most blood curdling. They are bravo and come very hard with the bayonet. .Muny | of them were struck through hut still cumc on und died on our side of j the trenches. At dawn we saw them retiring in hundreds and simply mow ed them-down. Just in front of our lines in a space of 200 yards there ] were 4ii0 dead Turks, and there were many more that they dragged in a gully about 200 yards in front. Indian Tropos Arme. Tho next day we were busy mak ing repairs to our frenetics. This went on for several days, tho shell ing stopping at dusk, and then a se ries of night attacks to tiro us out. We were much too few to attempt | an advance, but after a bit somo1 (?urkhas und Indian troops arrived. The day before yesterday a great advance was planned. The French pushed up on the right flank to near ly a level with the British line, aol we charged on another 400-ynrdH. At | 4:3() In the evening we were sudden ly ordered to advance and dig in as far as'We could. We were very few then. W., V. and myself led the bat talion, while T.. who was the only ther officer, remained with 100 men in support. We ran forward, and in a couple .of minutes, while advancing about l SO yards, my lot lost seven killed, and 23 wounded straight away. Poor V. was hit next to me, very badly. Ile got a bullet practically through his heart nnd lt then turned and passed through both lungs. It. j was a marvelous escape. W. and I were both safe, though how any one | got through that fire was a marvel. There was a Turkish redoubt 400 yards in front and they simply swept tho ground with machine gun fire. If we had advanced another 100 yards one of us could have been left alive. There was no going back, so we just dug In where we were and hung on all night hoping ?he Turks wouldn't try to turn us on We got some sort of a line and I two other regiments (or their re mains, for we were all decimated) came up on our left We were not I attacked for some unknown reason, ! and tho following morning we were I r?-inforced by some Australians and | New Zealanders, *and wo were glad to see them. We remained all day] in our new line, and at dusk the Worcesters relieved us and we were taken av uy two miles to the left to deliver a night attack on a Turkish position where two "eglmenta had al ready been wiped out in daylight. Advance In Darkness. At 1 a. m. what remained of the battalion (about 300 and three offi cers, W.. T. and myself) advanced In pitch darkness toward the Turkish lines. We had gone about 400 yards and had Just reached our position when -the Turks heard us and opened a heavy Aro on us. We just lay down and diig aa usual, trusting to luck. Tho place we were in waa a cliff, on the seashore where a fortnight be-1 fore tho K. O. S. Borderers and | South Walca Borderers, C. ot had landed the same day aa wo were cut up. After a fight lasting hours against many thousand Turks, they had to I re-embark, leaving 700 dead of their own and about 1,600 Turks and 17 j officers. These bodies were still ly ing exactly as they fell. We kepi] tripping up over these bodies. When j tho Turks opened fire we dug In where we were, and when It got light I ! found myself lying next to the body ! of un awfully nice fellow in the K. O. 8. H., whom I had seen at the opera in Malta, where we had a most cheery time together. I could only | just recognise him, and it was .. ex tremely unpleasant. There were many I uUiura, but I could not recognise a) lot. In Hopeless Position. At dawn we found we were in a I hopeless position to be held, aa wa wore enfiladed from two sides, so we ! were ordered to retire to tho original ! advanced line. At io a. m. I and al subaltern of the Dublins crept up by ourselves and did a reconnalaance. ] We went half a mlle along the cliff by goat tracks, and finally ~.rept up to within a few yards ot u Turkish trench. We. could hear the swines talking and saw .beni eating and cooking th")i food We sketched the position and then crept back and put 12 scouts out to watch while we brought up the regiment. I led the wav up with 200 Dub lins, but Jual before we got into the position Ute Turks spotted us. Out of the first ?tx men op I was the only one who wasn't hat. Wo had to get back.. tt was a great pity, as if ? t. couta cu ly have got 400 men up there without being sean we could have hung on against any number of Turka We got back at last The general realised that the posi tion was an impossible one, so that evening the whole 2J>th division were ordered back to the base for a pest after 16 days' continuous fighting. By jove, I was pleased to gat away from the bullets and shells tor a blt We had a ration issued, the first for three days, and wer? told to sat and slepe. I had a glosions sea beth and then slept without moving. We are still here; this ls the ascend day. sad we have been busy reorganising tho battalion. Wo art- now four of ficers uucl 372 men, out of 31 Offi cer? and 1,000 men who left C., and] there have been no prisoners, all killed or wounded, and it is awful toi think of the dozens of good fellows I've burled during the lust lo dayH. Still, what remains of us aro all very ? beery. W. came back yesterday, hav ing recovered from his wound. I miss J. niora than any one, and ?. was a 1 groat loss. ?J. died of his wounds | after he next attack. Ile was badly hit In the thigh with a hand gren- j ade and then bayoneted rather sc-1 verely. German Officers Marvel. We are on?; regiment now with the Dublins, but altogether we only num ber 650, barely half a strong battal ion. Still they say we have done ] wonderfully. The German officers taken prisoners say it Is absolutely j beyond them how wc vero effected a landing at all, as they thought, If | there was ono place Impregnable ' in the world it was the Gallipoli Pe- j DInsula. They also admit that no oth er army except ours J- the world j could see half Its regiment wiped out and still come on and win. The Turks outnumbered us by many thousands, but this was not known, till we had forced a landing and had gained ?vo lillies of the peninsula. lt has now degenerated into a kind of trench warfare. Neither thc Turks nor ourselves can advance, and every day makes the postiion on both sides stronger. The weather here ia very hot In the daytime and bitterly cold at night. I throw away my great coat every uay und pica up sonic dead man's lying tn tim field in the ?vening. I have lots of tobacco and Ulinga, mun ks very much. We are now get ting rations of cigarettes and tobacco and also rum, which <s most excel lent at dawn, when you are expecting u nayouet by the evening. How long ? this will go on, goodness only knows. I have got my rod, but there has I not beer, much time to fish yet, and every stream so far is running red with blood and the whole sea for| three miles was tinted red the day wo landed.

I-Chinese newspapers ure anxiously speculating U8 to the results of the present war in Europe, and their effect upon The Hague tribunal and the possible ar bitration of international disagree ments in the future. The fear lu general throughout ellina thal the international balance of power maintained in Pie far' east before the war may he upset as a result of the present struggle. Muny prominent oilieials frankly say that the absolute crushing of Germany by rj.be Entente powers would bc a calam ity lor t'hinu, ns they fear that such a condition would make it possible for Japan to enforce successfully tho demands upon Chino which ure now held in abeyance. lilts attitude of Chinese officials toward:, tho war has been distaste ful to the English in China. However, the English with large commercial interest in tho far east ure openly critical of Japan's attitude towards China, and their outspoken crltlcis ism of tho Japanese demands has produced much discussion in Japanese newspapers whloti has been reproduc ed In holli tho foreign and native press of China. China still pins faith to The Hague tribunal, and prominent Chinese news papers hopo tor Cir; si renglhoning of i! after the war by military force which will back up the decisions of Svis international court. 1 While tho war prrovonted China from suggesting that the recent de mands of Japan be submitted to The Hague, the Peking Daily News urges that after the settlement of the pres ent war the Chinese government must obtain from The Hague tribunal n definite pronouncement interpreting Hie open door policy in the far cast. "vW.at is the open iloor?" this pa per asks. "Tho favorite interpreta tion is equal opportunity for tho commerce and industry of all nations In China. This is a usefiui enough interpretation, but when lt conies to practice it ls found that Japan holds tho principle of equal opportunity is r.oi violated if Japan obtains tho exclusivo right of railway construc tion in South Manchuria and Eastern Inner Mongolia. Can that theory be upheld? Most peoplo would agr?? without hesitation that in forcl-.g China to give her tho right to veto railway construction in these regions by other powers, Japan ha's wrested from them 'equal opportunity.' Otli er nations must have possessed equal opportunity to construe^ railway's prior to the new Chino-Japanese treaty, otherwise Japan would not have deemed it nee ssary to compel China to withdraw the right by trea ty. "To tho non-Japanese mind there ?an be no question that in securing exclusive rights on South Manchuria and Eastern Inner Mongolia, and de manding them in Fukien, Japan was deliberately violating her promise to maintain the promise of equal op portunity. Dut Japan still maintains in her demands she showed the fullest respect for her engagements. If China could obtain from The Hague tribun al some authoritative interpretation of thc expression equal opportunity, site would find1 lt muc/i easier to re pel any endeavor to impair the prin ciple." More Annexations. Gene\ , Sept. 18.-The Lausanne Gazette saya it ls learned that the German government has decided to issue a declaration annexing the occu pied territories in France and Bel gium.
