decisive repulse. Numerous prisoners
also have been taken by the British
and to a man they have evince^ grati
fication that they are safe from the In
ferno of bursting shells which the
British without cessation are pairing
ufion the German holdings.
The big guns of the Germans have
not been idle during the fighting, but
their strength is in no wise compara
