Ceremony Is Full of Dignity and Sim plicity, the Significance of Which Was Not Lost on the Population No Soldier Shouts of Triumph Over Defeated Foe People Show Evi dence of Delight. Tho first detailed account of the British entry Into the Holy City wus received by the London Dally News from W. T. Mnssey at Jerusalem. Ho suys: "This central site of sacred history Is liberated from the thrulldom of tho Turk without u British bullet or shell being directed against its walls, or so much us u stone being scratched. The Turks were forced to withdraw by Gen eral Allcuby's strategy and the valor of ills army.' The Turkish artillery tired from a position quite close to the city, and enemy guns thundered from the Mount nf Olives, but of our liro the inhabitants could make out nothing inoro than u distant rumbling of guns and the bursts of musketry. No Display Entering City. "General Alleaby put the sanctity of Ihe holy sites before, every other con sideration nnd approached the city only when the pressure of Ids troops In the tncuutnliis west and northwest forced the enemy to yield. "I write this after witnessing the olllcliil entry of General Allenby and his staff and military commanders of detachments of French and Italian troops. There was no great pageantry of urms, uo display of pomp. With Ihe commander lit chief uud Ids small u !T was a guard of less than loO ull told, Including allied troops. Thero is a quiet ceremonial of reading tho proclamation of military law, of meet ing notables of the city and heads of religious bodies, and the official entry i was over. . "There were no Hags hoisted nud there wus no enemy Hag to haul down. Iherd were no soldier shouts of tri umph over tho defeated foe, but Just a short military procession Into the Mount Kioii portion of tho city, 200 j irds from tho wnlls. People See New Era Open.

"At eight o'clock in the morning the mayor und chief of police came out under a tlag of truce. The mayor, wdio holds his high civic position ns n member of the Ilasseln family which possesses documentary proof of Its di rect . descent from.

I "Between the offer nnd the formal ; necoplnneo, there was sharp fighting jou the outskirts, the Turks lighting more stublmrnly than at any period of these operations and meeting huy 'onet wllh bayonet. The London troops i were heavily attacked and strong inn ehlnc-gun lire was poured Into them from the Mount of Olives, but by noou the Turks were pushed back 'so far that wo occupied ground 7,000 yards 'north of the city walls. The Welsh troops were operating from the snnfli nnd east, and drove the Turks from the Jericho read. This was the ioIII tary position at noon.
