"Conditions," said Mr. Scott, ' London, Sept. 10.â€" The village of Ginchy, the last remaining fortified place separating the British from the important German railway centre of Combles, to-day fell to the troops of Sir Douglas Haig. Combles is now under fire from three sides, by the British from the north-west and west, and by the French from the south-west. Its fall is now l)elieved to be a matter of a few days. Winding up a week of incessant hammering of the German lines in the initial phases of which, last Sun- day, part of Ginchy and the whole of Guillemont were taken by storm, the BritLsh Saturday attacked on a front of 6,000 yards, between High Wood and Leuze Wood. As a result, they completed the capture of Ginchy and took all of the ground between the village and Leuze Wood. Further- more, they pushed their lines forward ; 300 yards on a front 01 500 yards east of High Wood. Simultaneously, successfully crush- ing in the northern tip of thi> salient formed by the Somme drive, the Brit- ish gained an additional COO yards to the north-east of Pozieres. The head- quarters statement i.ssued to-night tells of heavy casualties suffered by the Germans, particularly while mass- ing for a counter-attjck durintr the British action near Pozieres, the Teu- toni being caught by the British ar- tillery fire. The French forces on the Somme contented themselves with minor ac- tions to-day. They captured some Ger- man trenches east of Belloy-cn-Siin- terre, south-west of Barleux. taking 30 prisoners, and earlier in the day took a small wood east »f this village, and made further progress east of Deniecourt. Including to-day's cap" turas, the French have taken more than 8,000 prisoners since last Sun- day. At every vital point of the Somme battle line the Germans to-day launched counter-attacks of frantic bitterness. Everywhere their at- tempts to regain the ground lost since the resumption of the allies' big push a week ago to-day broke down with severe lot!.ses, according to the French and British official reports. They were unable to wrest from the En- tente troops an inch of the lost ter- rain. Only at one point between Belloy- en-Santerre and Barleux, did the Ger- mans make as much as a temporary gain. They were immeiiiately driven out of the trench in which they had won a foothold, by a vigorous French counter-attack. The short-lived suc- cess was scored, according to th€ French afternoon communique, with the aid of jets of liquid fire. The British have taken 3.50 pris- oners during the last 24 hours. They repulsed a violent counter-attack north-east of Pozieres and another north of Ginchy. In reviewing the week's advance, the afternoon state- ment issued at headquarters says the British <u\ce last Sunday have pushed their front forward ti.OOO yards to a depth varying between 300 and 3,000 yards. The important points netted by the .-^even days' advance are the Fal- femont farm, L^-uzc Woo<i and the villages of Guillemont and Ginchy. Montraal Markets.

TO ENSURE FITNESS OF MEN ENLISTING Age Limit to be Enforced and I'ntit Applicants Rejected. .â- V despatch from Ottawa says: New regulations are being provided for ensuring the fitness of men ac- cepted for service in the expedition- ary force. Recruiting officers are to be retiuired to make certain that men entering the force are within ihe age limits, and medical officers will also be called upon to exerci.se great care against the admission of unfit men. A recruit will be examined first by the local medical officer at the place of enlistment and on reaching the mobilization centre he will be re-ex- amined by a medical board, after he is finally attached for overseas ser- vice. If there is any doubt as to his condition, he may be re-examined on request by the medical officer. Steps are being taken also to keep some sort of record of men rejected for un- fitness, probably by obtaining from such men signed cards, certifying to their rejection. This is for the pur- pose of preventing men once rejected from applying at other places, a com- mon practice. It is surprising how much work a man can find to do that he does not want to do.

FRENCH SUCCESS AT VERDUN GAINS A MILE OF TRENCHES FIGHTING THE WAR CONVERTED PRISONERS INTO STRETCHER-BEARERS. Paris, Sept. 10.â€" The French in a [ violent attack Saturday wrested from , the Crown Prince a whole system of trenches east of the village of Fleury. north-west of Verdun, on the right bank of the .Meuse. The night communique representing this suc- cess, says the trenches won are "in front of Douaumont." This indicates that Gen. Nivelle is preparing for a determine<i effort to regain that fort, which was the first to fall into Ger- man hands in the initial phase of the Verdun drive last February. The French captured two officers and 300 men. The Germans tried again vainly to reconquer the positions lost three days ago in the Vaux-Chapitre wood. .â- Ml attacks broke down under the Frcnth curtain of fire. Violent artil- lery duels rage on the whole front west of the Meuse. The German sUitemeiit admits the French penetrated German positions south of Thiaumont field work and cast of Fleury, but asserts they were driven out by a counter-attack.

During the artillery preparation in thir- part the Teutons were treated liberally to the new Russian gas shell. The Austrian fire was suddenly silenced. The Russians, pu.^hing for- ward, found the trenches tenanted cnly by dead, grimly gi'otesque fijf- ures lying or leaning, evidently killed iiistjintly. by the fumes of the gas.
