HOME, July 7.
Great gaps have been (orn In the field
defenses surrounding Oorlzla by tho In
cestant pounding uf Italian sheila. Of
ficial dispatches today reported that ths
bombardment of the last four days hni
damaged the Austrian works at the
Isonzo bridgehead.
King Victor Emmanuel, near the fir
ing line on the Italian left witnessed the
rapture of! drosls peak, near Selr by
Beraaglterl, who took "CO prisoners. The
King scaled a small plateau, accompnnlei
by an escort of cavalry olllcers and
watched the struggle from n d stance of
crty a few hundred yatds. When the
enemy was finally driven from Hit sum'
mit the King crossed to the pcsl Ion of
hla vlctoriou. troops and congraUlntcl
them.
A general attack on Gorilla from three
sides was begun early yesterday. In the
region of 1'lava, Oersagllerl are assailing
the Austrian trenches with great fury,
attempting to break through and attack
the fortress from the north. Itnllan guns
on tho Plava heights dominate the coun
try south to OorUla and have dispersed
several bodies of enemy reinforcements
and ammunition trains. Bombardment of
the Gorzla bridgehead Is tho heaviest
artillery action along the Isonzo since
the war began.
The Italian offensive on the western
edge of tho Carso Plateau, which lies In
land from Monfalcone, Is officially re
pbrted last night to be progressing. Tho
object at this point Is to cut tho only
remaining railway lino to Qorltz, thus
completely Isolating that stronghold. Al
ready one railway line running through
Qorltz has been cut In two places, at
Monfalcone, to the south, and Plava, to
the nprtli. The remaining line crosses
the Carso Plateau to Trieste, and once
thin has been Interrupted the Austrian
positions at Gorltz will be very seriously
endangered. Italian fliers have bom
barded stations on this line.
The War Office Issued the following
statement last night:
A most effective bombardment of Mal
borghetto and the fortifications In the
Predll pass (leading to Tnrvls) continues.
Qur offensive on the Carso plnteau o
developing favorably. Yesterday we
rnade 400 prisoners.
' Our dirigibles shelled the Doberdo en
campment last night and damaged the
Dornberg Railway Junction and the
Prvaclns, stations. They returned safely.
The enemy's attacks against .Forcella
dl cot Mazzo, Pal Orando and Plzzoa
Vostano yesterday were repulsed. The
enemy lost many prisoners and much
ammunition.
On the Isonzo the enemy continues to
resist our advance, which continues.
The Austrians are still employing
treacherous war methods.
Bombers and Prvaclna are Important
stations on the still uninterrupted rail
way from Qorltz to Trleste.Prvaclna Is
six miles southeast of Gorltz. Oom

BRITISH LINES MOWED
DOWN BY TURKISH FIRE
AT GALLIPOLI LANDING
Many Traps Encountered
by Forces That Disem
barked From Transports
for Attack on Darda
nelles.
LONDON, JULY 7.
' General Sir Ian Hamilton, commander
of the Allied troops at the Dardanelles,
In his first full report to the War Office
describing the "purple days" of the
landing on Oalllpoll Tenlneula, admits
that "It was touch and go" many times
before tho Invaders established a foot
ing. In several Instances half of the
landing parties were killed or wounded
before they rould reach even the plight
shelter afforded by the sandy bank on
the upper part of the benches. A great
majority of the senior olllcers were killed
or wounded.
The Turks had turned the landing
places Into death-traps. There were wire
entanglements the whole length of the
shore, with a supplementary barbed wire
network concealed beneath the surface
of the sea. Land mines and sea mines
wero everywhere, and machine guns cun
ningly tucked away In holes In the cliffs'
wero able to converge their fire on the
wire entanglements.
"So strong, In fact, wero the defenses,"
says the General, "that the Turks may
welt have considered them Impregnable,
and It la my firm conviction that no
finer feat of arms has ever been achieved
by the British soldier or any other sol
dier than the storming of theso trenches
from open boatn on the morning of tho
25th of April."
WIUB CUTTEHS WOHIC UNDER FIRE.
General Hamilton speaks of "long lines
of men being mowed down as by a scythe."
Of the endless chains of wiro entangle
ments he writes: "Again tho heroic wire
cutters came out. Through the glasses
they could be seen quietly snipping away
under the holllsh fire, ns If they wero
pruning a vineyard."
Of the Australians, he says: "Like
lightning they leaped ashore, and each
man that did so went straight as his
bayonet nt tho enemy. So vigorous was
the onslaught, the Turks made no at
tempt to withstand It and fled from ridge
to rldgo pursued by tho Australian In
fantry," A -shortage of ammunition prevented
the Allies from gaining the hoped-for
footing on Achl Baba. "Had It been
possible," says General Hamilton, "to
push' In reinforcements of men, artillery
and munitions, Krtthla should have fallen,
and much subsequent fighting for its cap
ture would have been avoided.
TURKS LOST HEAVILY.
"Up to May 1," he continues, "the
net result of the operations was tho re
pulse of the Turks and the Infliction upon
them of very heavy losses. At first we
had them fairly on tho run, and had It
not been for those inventions of the
dovll machine guns nnd barbed wire
which BUlt the Turkish character nnd
tactics to perfection, we RhouUl not have
stopped short of the crest of Achl Baba."
Tho Commander-ln-Chlef'B dispatch Is
of great length, but most of the events
had already been chronicled In other of
ficial dispatches from him. Having
reached the conclusion, after witnessing
tho "stupendous" battle between the
warships and the land fortresses, that It
would require tho whole of his strength
to enable tho fleet effectively to force the
Dardanelles, General Hamilton prepared
tn (ling all his troops rapidly ashore. In
tho full knowledge that an attempt to
land on such a wall defended theatro of
operation "Involved difficulties for which
there Is no precedent In military history
except, possibly. In the sinister legends
of Xerxes."
Tribute Is paid to the navy for Its co
operation In the following words:
"Throughout the events I have chron
icled tho royal navy has been father and
mother to tho army. Not one of us but
realizes how much ho owes to Vice Ad
miral de Robeck, to tho warships, French
anil British; to the destroyers, mine
swtepera and picket boats, and to all
their dauntless crews, who took no
thoughts of themselves, but risked every
thing to give their soldier-comrades a
fair run In at the enemy."
Oeneral Hamilton pays high tribute to
the French forces, who lost heavily. He
reports the British losses during the
period between April 25 and Slay S as
177 officers and 1390 men killed; 112 of
ficers and 7807 men wounded; 13 officers
and 33S0 men missing.
AMERICAN MEETS HARSH
TREATMENT IN TURKEY
Seized and Held Prisoner Several
Days, Despite Passports.
NEW Y,ORK, July 7. James M. Dixon,
purchasing agent for the Melachrino
Company, of New York, writes to his
house from Cavalla, Greece, relating a
tale of III treatment received by him In
the course of Ij!b recent trip through Eu
ropean Turkey In the pursuit of his busl
ness. Mr. Dixon went to Turkey to buy
tobacco and also to take money to some
of the peasants of Samsoun, Upon his
arrival at Dlmotlka he was arrested by
the Turkish police. In spite of the fact
that his passport was regular and thqt
he carried no documents In English ex
cept his power of attorney and letter of
credit.
He was seized and his luggage and
person searched for gold and other docu
ments. He had traveled upon the same
credentials through France, Spain, Ger
many, Austria, Italy and Greece without
molestation. He was removed from the
train by police and sent to a hotel, where
he was ordered to remain until the next
day, when the Inspector would Bee htm
and everything would be all right. There
upon the Inspector disappeared and never
came back. The hotel was not a fit
place to house animals and the food was
absolutely not fit to eat. The Turkish
officials at Dlmotlka did not eat Jt and
had their meals sent to them frorn Adrl
anoDle. During the whole of the first 'day of

surveillance of a policeman. The fourth

LONDON, July 7. The correspondent of
the Dally Chronicle at Lugano, Switzer
land, reports that the battle on the Carso
tableland above the Isonio Is developing
more and more, favorably for the Italians,
who, he says, continue to occupy enemy
positions. The Italian iniantry attacKS,
according to the correspondent, have been
facilitated by the admirable work of the
artillery, which has destroyed the In.
trenchroents and defensive works with
astonishing rccuraoy, making subsequent
assaults uniformly successful.
The correspondent also reports that on
the left wing the Italian forces operating
in the region of Selz reached the height
of Croats, taking more than 600 prisoners
and a battery. King Victor Emmanuel
was present at this battle.
Other advices from Italy report a steady
advance by Infantry and bayonet charges
after the artillery haa cleared the way.
These advices say that the work It diffi
cult, because- It is being carried on In a
country full of caverns, grottoes and

GERMAN SUBMARINES
TO RAID CANADA TRADE
Undersea BaBe to Be Estab
lished Off Dominion Coast,
Naval Reserve Officer Says.
NEW YORK. July 7.
Germany plans to carry her BUbmarino
warfare Into American waters, according
to a reserve officer of the German navy,
who Is understood to be cognizant of tho
Intentions of Great Admiral von Tlrpltz.
Chief of Staff of tho Gorman Admiralty.
Tho plan as outlined provides for tho
establishment of submarine bases off the
Canadian coast with a view to sinking
every vessel leaving Halifax and Quebeo
for British ports.
Tho schema can be carried out, the
Germans aro sure, without any question
arising as to tho legality of tho proceed
ing or the violation of tho Monroo Doc
trine. The latter will not be affected,
It Is pointed out, because It can bo shown
that the establishment of such bases
would bo In the enemy's territory nnd
would not bo done with a vlow to torrl
torlal conquests. Also no question of the
neutrality of the United States would be
Involved.
Since tho beginning of tho war, and
especially since the establishment In Feb
ruary of a war zono around tho British
Isles by Germany, tho bulk of nrms and
other munitions of war has been shipped
via Montreal and Quebec This has been
particularly true of shipments of wneat,
horses and mules. Since the Lusltanla
was Bunk many business men of the
United States have preferred routing their
products through Canada to shipping
them on steamers leaving ports In this
country.
Another feature that has made tho
-Germans -especially desirous of stationing
submarines off Canada Is tho opportunity
that would thus be afforded of sinking
transports conveying Canadian troops to
England and Franco.

has Just made a discovery which will
revolutionize submnrlne wnrfare. It Is
Btated that the inventor la one of the
members of the committee appointed by
the noyal Society to deliberate on scien
tific problems arising from the war.
The Invention Is an apparatus where
by a submarine can locate another sub
merged submarine within a radius of 20
miles and keep In touch with It while
within the radius. ,
If the device Is successful then hence
forth British submarines will be able to
run down and fight German undersea
