4 THE SUNDAY OBEGONIAIT. FOETLAIOJ. MAT 28, 1916. BRITISH ARMY JN FRANCE INCREASED Correspondent Absent Few . Months Amazed by Num j bers on Return. BIG- DRIVE IS POSSIBLE Force Unable to Attack During Wln tcr Because of Mud Germans' Alo Strengthen Lines AVith Men and Equipment. EHITISH HEADQUARTERS, France, May 27. (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) A. correspondent v.-ha hu been absent for eix months from the British Iront is amazed upon his return at the increase in numbers of men, suns and equipment. The nu merous battalions o the new army which have arrived have engulted the old regular army. Not one officer in ten that are met have had any mili tary service before the war. It now requires a ride of a hun dred miles to compass the British front. Khaki is thick in the villages of the Somme country as well as in those of northern Belgium. The Brit ish hold the famous "Labyrinth" as well as Ypres and Loos. In the course of the taking over of a long section of the French line which freed French troops for service hundreds of miles of wire had to be laid, transport or ganized, headquarters moved, new corps and divisions created and com manders appointed. In the laat few months new men have come into po sitions of responsibility. Men who en tered the army as second lieutenants have become captains without yet being old enough to vote. Majors have become colonels and generals. Jk'e Germani Drawn Off. "We do not know when the war will be over but we do know that Spring is here," say the soldiers. The second Winter in the trenches is finished. Its thill, wet motonony is over. Before another Winter well, what will hap pen this Bummer? The growth of the army and the sun drawing the mois ture out of the mud emphasized the universal question. Never, so far as one can learn, have there been so many Germans and so many Allied troops on the Western front as at this time. Next to the Verdun region the German concentration is heaviest in face of the British of iny section from the North Sea to Switzerland. No German troops have been drawn off from the British front as reinforcements for the attack on Verdun. Whatever fighting there was through the Winter and there now is along the British front might best be described as trench raids. One side or the other demolishes a section of enemy trench by exploding mines or by artillery concentration. Then the Infantry rushes the trench, gathers in pome prisoners, does what damage it can and returns to itB own trench. In the morasses of the Ypres salient and the Loos region, nothing more could be done, though a Winter attack might be possible in high country like that round Verdun. Much ingenuity has been shown by both sides in these trench raids. But no sooner has one side worked out a new trick than the other learns now to counter it. "Mud" was thir reason given in a word by an officer why the British could not at tack in Winter to relieve the pressure on Verdun. "It was the season the UermanB would have chosen for us to attack," he added. Pew Get Victoria Croi. Notwithstanding the countless deeds of bravery that have been chronicled on the British front, the ceremony of awarding the victoria Cross is still rare enough to be notable whenever it occurs. One such recent ceremony was. in fact, unique, for the recipient was the Rev. Noel Melllsh, a London curate who is the flrst chaplain in the Brit ish army to- receive the cross in the present war or in any war since the , second Afghan campaign of 1879. The units of the army were drawn up for the ceremony in a division forming a hollow square on the Spring Kreen of an open field, in the center of which stood Mr. Mellish- and other of ficer.! who were to receive lesser deco rations. The General who pinned the ribbon on the chaplain's breast read a brief account of the gallantry that won .hi in the honor. The General told how, again and again, Mellish had risked hi"! life to attend to and bring to places of safety those wounded in the fight ing at Et. Eloi. The clergyman, who is an extremely slender and boyish looking man of gentle manners, rath 'r than a typical fighting parson, took his honors modestly and received a hearty round of cheers by the thou sands o soldiers present.

ENTIRE COUNTRY MOURNS "Savior of Paris" Is Title Applied to Military Man Whose Operations In Critical Days of August, 1914, Held Back Germans. PARIS, May 27. General Joseph S. Gallieni. former minister of war. died at Versailles today. The death of General Gallieni, while not unexpected, created profound sor row, as he was idolized by the French people, particularly the poor, who re garded him as the savior of Paris dur ing the critical days of August, 1914. His funeral will be the occasion of a notable military and civil demonstra tion. Transfusion In Futile. ' Shortly before his death an operation for transfusion of blood was performed, but it had little effect. The general was extremely weak and was unable to take nourishment.. His aon and daugh ter were at his bedside. After the notable part taken by Gen eral Gallieni in the battle of the Marne, when he rushed 80,000 troops of the Paris garrison to the battle line in taxi cabs at the crisis of the struggle and thereby turned the tide of victory in favor of the French, he was appointed Minister of War in the reconstructed cabinet. Red Tape Rliratnated. As war minister. General Gallieni da." voted himself with remarkable energy to the elimination of red tape in the administration of the- army. He also dealt with a heavy hand with officers who had secured posts through favor; itism or political influence. His first act was to forbid civilians to write to the generals in the field in regard to military matters and his next was to send to the front a number of able bodied soldiers who were occupying billets In the j-ear. Like General J off re, he was relentless in forcing the retire ment of old officers whose activities or abilities were not equal to the demands of the war. By revision of the exempt lists he added 80,000 men to the army. In February of this year General Gallieni took over the d'notlon ,of the department of aviation, "ut shortly af terwards he was taken ill with kidney trouble and was compelled to resign on March 6. Since then he has been fight ing a losing battle with death. KIDNAPING IS CHARGE IiA GRANDE ELOPEMENT IS FOILED ; TRIO BOUND OVER.
