without fear of contradiction,

The soldiere had been warned of the pos sibility that gas would be used against them, hence they were not surprised when, in the early morning of May 30th, a move. ment was observed in the German trenches, where men were seen placing a white powder resembling salt upon straw before their positions. It was first re- ported that this was the gas producer, but. I now learn that this was merely the means of creating a cloud of heavy white smoke, which served as a screen for subac quent movement. The system actually employed by the Germans was to place cylinders of stoel 30in. by ein, in a trench, ombedded in the floor, then to connect this with a lead pipe running along the para- pet fwoing the enemy, with a valve at the cylinder-head. After the smoke curtain had been created these valves were simal- taneously opened. The cylinders were arranged in groups of 10 or 12, 2ft. apart, with spaces of 20 paces between each group, this system covering perhaps

a-kilometro of the front.

On the opening of the valves clouds of heavy, greenish-yellow gas poured out, flooding all the ground before the German lines, and with a favourable wind these drifted slowly toward the Russian line, which was absolutely hidden by a wall of smoke and gas. Evidence exists which indicates that the German soldiers bitter- ly protested against the using of these gases. At allevents, the soldiers were told by their officers that the gas was quite harmless and that the Russians would not suffer unduly, but would merely be ren- dered unconscious, and that they could walk over and occupy their trenches with out losing a man. Behind the gas went Bappers to cut the Russian barbed wire, Beland their attacking columns followed Germans bearing cylinders of oxygen for the relief of their own soldiers, who were all equipped with respirators.

RUSSIANS UNMOVED.

How grateful it must be to the empty ports of Hamburg and Danzig, to Herr Ballin and the rotting merchant fleets of the North German Lloyd and the Hamburg-American Line, that the Ger- man armies win new victories which lead to now wars!

The perfidious methode of the Car- mans in this war, the treacherous tactics in which they persist, and the hatred provoked by these actions among the Russian people gave rise to a fear that the national anger might find expres sion in protests of a more serious nature than mere exclamations of indignation

This fear became stronger when the Gormans took to the ignoble use of cor- rosive liquids and asphyxiating gases, and especially after a blasphemous Order of the Day which said, "God, who is entirely with the Germans, has given then deleterious gases in order to ensura their final victory." This Order of the

Day undoubtedly served as the spark to the bonfire of wrath represented by the Russian people-a bonare conceived of hatred, indignation, revulsion, and contempt.

The Bjorneon Agency and other Ger man organs, desiring to justify the mil- lions expended on tho propaganda among the Russian workers, sought to convince publig opinion in their country and in Europe that all these sentiments- were directed against the Government of Russia, notwithstanding proofs to the contrary, such as, notably, the visit of the Tear to the Briansk and Putiloff

Later on the demonstrators matched through, the streets and demolished all German shope, offices, and houses, smashing the windows, destroying the goods, and throwing them out of the windows.
