The casualties in the allied 5 ranks were heavy, but favorable pro- ’gress was made.

Eight thou- sand infantry have arrived at Aix-ia- Chapelle and are proceeding in the direction of Brussels. From Thielt, two of the big German 40 centimeter guns have passed through Aixâ€"la-Cha- pelie on their‘wa’y to Dixmude. An extended movement of troops or guns is now virtually impossible in Eastern Belgium. The trenches oc- cupied by the Germans are half filled with water and in many places the Franco-British are in water up to their knees, but bravely hold their positions in the face of heavy Ger- man artillery fire. On account of the danger of electrocution to their own men. both the,Germans and the allies have shut off the electric cur- rent with which the wire entangle- ‘ments before the trenches were charged. Numerous fatalities have resulted from the water rising above the entanglements, greatly increasing the deadly power in the charged wires. -. ' A detachment of Germans was kill- ed when French mines blew up their trenches. Entire detachments, which tried to capture French fortifications near Vailly, were destroyed by artil- lery fire. , The Germans have been washed out of their trenches at many points in the flooded section about Dtxmude. Many have been drowned. commands, separated by the waters have been wiped out by the allied ar- tillery fire. The Kaiser’s soldiers made desperate efforts to gain control of the canal dykes, but each assault was repulsed. a. protective sheet of water and all hopes of a German advance have been frustrated.” The correspondent of The Times in Flanders telegraphs that the Germans have completely evacuated the left bank of the Yser Canal and that the floods are seriously jeopardizing the Germans’ position at Dixmude. The French are nominally holding the south end of the town of Dixmude and the“ Germans the north side. There is much hand-to-hand fighting. ”Recent days have been entirely favorable.” the allies’ correspondent says.

The 8.1 tillery for the second contingent Eare not yet all enlisted. As already intimated, the choice of men to go ,with the second Contingent, as difier- entiated from those who will be re- quired as reinforcements for- the first ;and second divisions, will be. by re- :giments, and not by individual re~ traits. There is a possibility-that some reinforcements for the first diâ€" visiou .will go,across with the second contingent, and if this is the case the reinforcements will be in action before members of the second divis- ion proper. The reinforcements, though they are being raised as sep- arate regiments will not be sent as units, since they will be utilized to fill gaps in the ranks of the first contingent. Drs.

At the station the detachment was drawn up and was addressed by Major J. J. H. Fee, Commanding Officer, 45th Regt. Major Fee urged the volunteers to so conduct themselves as to bring credit not only on their regiment, but on the Dominion.
