A dUonsninnee)mtobo going on as to
whether an Infantry square can be broken
i uj cunrge oi men on loot or ou iioniu-
bni'k. To the nonmilitary mind this
would seem ImixwHlble, provided that
the square I properly formed. But I
read the other day that the French in
Dahomey cast melinite bombs Into an
Intrenchmont of tho enemy, with the re
mit that the tuwailanU theniHelvei had
to full back in order not to be destroyed
by the suffocating fume.
I this a fact or an effort of the jour
nitlistlo tmttgination? If the former,
what is to prevent melinite being fired
Into any donne mans of men on a battle
field, whether in nimira or in any other
formation, and emitting inch fume
that the square would ceuae to exist?
Admitting the truth of the statement, It
omns to mo likely to render war so ex
cuodiiigly dangerous a pimtlme that few
wine human beings will be willing to
engage in It. Loudon Truth.
