Transfers Amiens Railway
Station Into Scene of
Gaiety.
DUBLIN, Sept. 17.
It seems lather ft patndox to describe
the arrlvnl of a trnlnlond of wounded
Midlers at a railway station as a scene
ef reveliy. 5'ct Mich Is the account given
by tlic special correspondent of the Free
man's Journal at Amiens under yestor
day's date. Ho writes:
A train of twenty carriages came In
loaded with COO Tommies. Sixty of them
Here WUUIlut'U, dih mi,, v.i. ihv iikilc
front between Mens and Charlerol. These
ere not serious cases sufficient only to
put our men out of the battlu Una for n
nill-bullet wounds and cuts on the tegs
chiefly, swathed hands and splintered
flngfr, and gashes and rips In arms and
ihouldeis. Not one had a face woundj J
and 3ery one of these boys was clam
orous to get back again In the thick of
the business. Tho station was hushed
and quiet until tho fateful train came In.
And what happened? Why nothing more
or less than a gala perfoimanco In khaki.
Inftcad of a dismal cortege this Incoming
troop train presented a scone of sheer
welry.
"Every carrlago window was full of
brown, .lolly, dirty, shaggy faces faces
with week-old beards to them, but alight
, with quick, keen cheerful eyes. Hats
were waved, songs were sung, and from
the first carriage door which was flung
epen a Highlander hopped out, to tho
Mtonlahment of tho walling crowd, and
ild a fling a fling with a limp to It It is
true, but a Highland fling for all that,
tin most entertaining to the crowd. They
would say very little of the flghtlrv? save
that It was fighting and no mistake, a
continuous roar of flame and fury, hard,
hot, thirsty work. Plenty to cat, though.
(Terythlng splendidly managed, and not
jinglo man Jack of them caring a Jot.
"The clamorous demnnd of all these
jay wounded was for a fag. Their com
ralH&rlat had been excellent, their grub
prime and coffee, but somehow In this
peat world shattering war which was
Just beginning nnd ringing its grim tnlo
of devastation ana acatn aown tno nges,
somehow thero had been a most deplor
able shortage of cigarettes. A 'Wood
bine.' Nobody through tho entire length
and breadth of the Amiens long arrival
platform hnd ever heard of a 'Woodbine':
but when, after much gesticulation nnd
dumb show. Tommy hnd made his mean
ing plain, there arc shower's of black,
pungent French cigarettes In the yellow
wrappers at his disposal.
"The fraternizing was splendid. Im
mensely Jolly . A Blackburn Tommy,
after having shod his last possible button,
produced a mouth organ from somewhere
Inside of him, and played with tho execu
tion of a master at this revelrous busi
ness that familiar dltty, 'Wo. Won't Go
Home Till Morning.' Thero was a speedy
and hilarious scttlng-to, partners bowing
and scraping (In spite of limps and
tlnges), nnd In a brace of shakes the
British soldier and his brother across the
water were dnnclng a Jig with all the
abandon In It of Hnmpstead Heath on a
Bank Holiday."

NEW YORK, Sept. 17. -James A. Wake
field, of Pittsburgh, who arrived here)
yesterday from London by the Atlantlo
Transport steamship Menominee, saw
part of the battle of Mons. It cost him
100; lasted eight hours, and the sight,
he said, was worth the money.
Air. Wakefield was In Valenciennes
when the Germans began to throw their
heaviest forces against the French and
Delglans, nnd the longer he stayed away
from tlie line of battle the more he
longed to see It. On August 21 he met
a captain of French artillery and ex
pressed his desire to see a real battle.
The captain, whoc name was Antord,
said he thought It could be arranged,
but that it would cost about $100 If
party of a dozen could bo procured.
Mr. Wakefield told this to some of hla
fi lends, and later Informed Captain An

Calling at the London hospital to visit

The fight was between a German aero

How a. German aviator gained control
of a falling aeroplane after his companion
had been killed Is described In a thrilling
letter iccelved by his father hero today.
Thero wns a speedy Lit reads:
"Dear father: I am lying here in a
beautiful Belgian castle slowly recover
ing from wounds which I thought would
kill me. On August 22 I made a flight
with Lieutenant J., a splendid aviator,
nnd established tho fact that tlu enemy
was advancing toward us. In tho region
of Bettrlx wo came Into heavy rain
clouds and had to descend to 3000 feet. As
we came through the clouds wo were
seen and an entire French division began
shooting at us. Lieutenant J. was hit in
the abdomen. Our motor was put out of
commission. We were trying to voloplane
ncross a forest In the neighborhood, when
suddenly I felt tho machine give a Jump.
I turned round, as I was sitting in front,
and found Mint a second bullet hnd hit
Lieutenant .1. in tho head and killed him.
"I leaned over tho back of the seat and
managed to reach the steering apparatus
and headed down. A hall of shots whis
tled about me. I felt something hit me In
the foiehcad. Blood ran Into my eyes.
I was faint. But determination prevailed
and I retained consciousness. Just as we
were near the ground a gust of wind hit
the plane and turned my machlno over.
I fell In the midst of the enemy, with
iny dead companion. Tho 'red trousers'
wero coming from all directions, und 1
drew my pistol and shot thrco Ficnch
soldiers. I felt a bayonet at my bteast
and g.ivo myself up for dead, when an
officer shouted:
" 'Let him llvo! He Is a brave soldier.'
"I wns taken to tho commanding gen
eral of tho ITth French Army Corps, who
questioned me, but, of course, got no In
formation. Ho said I would later bo sent
to Paris, but as I was weak from loss
of blood and seriously wounded I wns
taken Into the Meld hospital and cared
for. The olllcers were very nice to me,
and when the French fell back I took
advantage of tho confusion to crawl un
der a hush, whero I remained until our
troops came."

been sent East to repel tho Russian at
tack In Enst Prussia, and to strengthen
tho Austrian forces In Gallcla, have been
withdrawn and are being rushed to the

campaign there, leaving the German
armies In France to nursuo defenslvn
tactics against the advnnclng allies.)
LONDON. Sept. 17.
Tho movement of eight German army
corps fiom East Prussia to tho theatre
of war in Franco Is taken to mean that
the Knlscr Intends to aim a final terrific
blow ot tho allies In an effort to crush
the opposition in France.
Such a Bourse 13 directly opposite that
which yesterday was believed to bo tho
German plan. Tho withdrawal of tho

BERLIN (by way of Amsterdam), Sep

AVounded Gorman olllcers who were
brought .here today accuse the Algerian
troops fighting with tho allies In France
with terrible atrocities.
They chnrge that the French officers
arc unnble to tame the wild natures of
theso African fighters, who delight in
torturing tho wounded and mutilating the
dead upon the battlefield.
One of tho wounded German officers,
Lieutenant von Lenz, declares that Ger
many should make formal protest against
the use of theso .ravage Africans.
"They havo been guilty ot the most
aggravated cruelties, some ot which 1
witnessed," declared the German officer.
"In other Instances I have learned from
the lips of witnesses how barbarously
these Algerians net. One wounded Ger
man soldier had his eyes gouged out by
a Turco, who used ' his spurs for the
cruel operation.
"After one fight In which they had
participated the Turcos went mound
with their sabres cutting and slashing
the dead and wounded.
"There lmvo been numerous Instances
whe're headless German soldieis have
been found. Tho Turcos had decapitated
them, carrying off the heads as trophies
of battle.
"Credit must bo given to theso Africans
as fighters, though. They have no regard
for human life and havo not tho slightest
conception of fenr. But their traits are
tho traits of savages and their chief de
light Is to Inflict cruelty. God pity thu

creatures are turned loose without restraint."
