LONDON, Aug. 10.-The commence-
ment of new and greater efforts to force the liardaiielics and thus bring succ-or to the Russians, who are still hard pressed by the Aiistro-Germans in Eastern Poland and the Baltic pro- vinces, and at. the sanie time to iiifiu- ence the Balkan States, together with _u._Zoppelin raid On the out-it coast ot' England, in which- fourtceii persons were killed and fourteen wounded, are features of the war to-night. For some time news from the liiirilaiielles, from the lirltisli standpoint, has been more cheerful, and while no details ot’ oper- ations there have been given out, the public have been allowed to learn that hope for a. eiiccessfiil issue in the fighting on the '1`urltlsli peninsula was beconiing briglitcr. A reiicived attempt against the ’i‘urkisii positions, which is apparently in t'iiIi swing, scents to be concentrated along the Krltliia road, where a gain of two liiiiiilred yards on a front ot' three liiindrcd yards has been occupied. according to Geiieral Sir lan lianiiltoii, tfom- niander In (Thief of British forces at the iiardanelles. Elsewiicre, the re- port continues, n. l’t'esli iiiiitiiug wus siiccessfiilly eil'ected and considerable progress made. This laiidiiig evident- ly was a surprise to thc 'I‘|irks, as 630 of them were taken prisoners. A num- ber ot` guns and a quantity oi' material is also declared to have been taken.
According to a. ’i`urkisli official i'e-
port the forces were put ashore in the environs of Kara (‘.haii, tt town on the road which skirts the north shore ot' the Gulf of Siiros, opposite the neck of Gallipoli Peiiiiisiila, and near Avi- buriiii. The latter place, though not shown on available maps, is believed to be at the foot of Sari Bahr, just iiortii of where the Australians are holding a strong position.
At Avibu`riii'i the Turks admit that a
landing was silccessfiiliy carried out, but cluini to have dispersed thc troops wliich came ashore near Kara (ihali. it is believed in circles licre that the landing at Kara (lliali was only a fcint t.o disguise the real iiitcntions oi’ the Allies, although it is said that the putting ashore of a strong force at this point niiglit result in their work- ing around and cutting oil' Turkish line oi' communication with Gallipoli lk-iiiiisula above Bulnir line across the neck of the peiiiiisuia. The forc- ing of the Darilanelles is realised by military critics here to be of the greatest iniportaiice, for they assert that. it is thc only way the Allies can render iniinediate aid to Russia for the great sacrifices she has made for the coininon cause.
iii addition it is believed by niilitary
observers tiiiit success hero would bring the liiiikun States dofliiitely over to the side oi’ the Qiiadriipio Entcute Powers in tho war. Italy it is under- stood is prcpai'etl to lend a hand in the lltirdaiielics operations.
ish coast oeciiri'eil Monday night and this morning the Germans lost one of the Zeppelin alrsliips that took part in it. it was attacked by gunfire wliiio on return lioine after having dropped bombs, and so seriously dam- aged tiiat it fell into the sea and was towed into Ostend, Belgium, whom allied airmen attacked and destroyed it. it is believed that four or five airships took part. A despatch from lloliand says tive more airships pass- ed ovor the country going in a north- westerly direction. Another air raid Oil Ellilland is expected to-night.. (lon- tiiiiial had wcailier prevented Zep- polins coining lust night. There was a big storin to-tiny and it niight be illllllrcrous for airsiiips to visit to-
night.
The Aiisiro-Gerinnns are slowly
closing around portions of the Rus- sian armies wliich remain on the Poi- isli salient. Their wide out-flanking movement in thc northern part ot` iiio llaltic provinces luis been brouglit to a standstill. l<‘nrtlier south they are npproiicliiiig forts at Kovnor and the Russians are reported to be evacuat- ing Vilna. They captured the fortress of Lomzn and on the southwest are approaching Bug River. These points are not far from the main railway. The nrmies of the Teutons advancing in East Warsaw and those which cross- ed the Vistulii at lvnngorod anti Field Marshall Maekeiizeifs forces are now joining hands and making an effort to destroy the Russian armies. it is believed iii military circles the Rus- sians are fairly safe. On the west- ern front Gorman attacks, according- lo French report. have been repulsed Field Mursliail French in his cominii- nication says the British under heavy artillery found some trenches captur- ed from Gerniaiis south of Hooge un-
tenable and evacuated them.

The awesome iiiforimitioii was given in a statement by Works Cominissioner Harris yesterday. Even 200 is a small estimate of the number of slaughtered iiniocents, as the number found is only those caught in the screens at the sew- age disposal plant at Moorley Avenue. No estimate of those that have gone through can be made.
The Commissioner oi’ Works stated
that the discoveries were reported to

However, such ii course was con-
