JUSTICE 8WDt!3 WW BKHtiXiJ photograph shows Associate Horrors of Warfare Told in Letter Received by Relative Here of Soldier in Europe Something of the fierceness and cruelty with which the battles of the Kuropean war are being fought Is re ; vealed in a letter written by Frar.i Jewett. nephew of Stanley Q Jewett of this city. The news dispatches tell only of the general results of the fighting but presents little of the detail resulting from personal exper ience. Young Jewett. who is in the Cana dian army, is in the hospital suffer ing from a slight wound and shell j shock. His letter, as received by the I local man. reads as follows: "Just a few lines to let you know that 1 am safe. I am in a hospital at Boulogne uttering from the e:-' , facts of the third battle of Ypres. "1 can only thank God that 1 u,i still alive. There are only about aj I dozen of our battalion left.

'Hundreds of thousands were hurled; jai us. in fact, ail the enemy's gtinsl in the district were turned on the I trenches we were holding, and they j j were ripped to pieces and leveled to I the ground.

B) this time l was bleeding from the nose, mouth and ears, with both les bunged up The young 01 tieer asked us if we were willing to take a , hance and run overland.

Justice Lo Brajidel for the first "There are not one hundred men left of the whole C M. H. Brigade but Fritz is losing just as heavily. One of our corporals got four of them anyway He had no gun but got holu of a piece of ixt and hit them over the head as they came up. The fourth one was a great big chap and was only dazed by the blow, so the cor poral jumped with all his might and with both feet right on his face and put him out This may seem cruel, but. when you take into considera tion that they bayonetted all our wounded left in the trenches, nothing is had enough for them.

BALTIMORE, July 10 Captain Paul Koenig. commanding the giant merchant submarine Deutschland, Is sued a formal statement at noon to day declaring that otner submersibiu merchantmen will follow the Deutsch land soon The first will be the Bre men. The Deutschland completed Its dare devil voyage this morning when it passed ,Urantine and docked at a specially prepared ana heavily guard ed dock and received the customs of ficials BALTIMORE. July 10 Supple menting his written statement issud this morning the captain told how his vessel laid at the bottom of the Eng lish channel a whole night while the crew played a gramophone beneath the waves, lived on champagne and the best of foods and openly sailed 3S00 miles, submerging only a few times, doing only 90 miles under the I surface on the entire trip. it brought a cargo of T50 tons , f dyestut'i's "for our American fnonds. ' "The idea of building trans-Atlantic submarines emanated from Alfred Lohmann, president of the Bremen chamber of commerce. A company was formed to build such submaiiuei The t: b t-rroas was uneventful. Our boat displaces 2000 tons and has a speed of more than lt knots' said the captc.in.
