Press.) London, July 26.—Befare the ‘big began discussion of British strictly prohibited but now the taboo has been lifted, and a squeeze” gas attacks was British “gasman” has been allowed to vrrite a graphic account of the work of his awn special corps whose business it is, he says, “to doctor the Germans with their own medicine.” “Behind our lines,” he writes, “the sun set in a blaze of glory. A glance over the parapet shows the green and scarlet of the poppied No-Man's land already merging into the gray mists of twilight; but 150 yards away, like a trown earth shadow among the grays. hangs the rusty barbed wire of the enemy and Jjust beyond a white, chalky upthrow marks his front line trench, The gasmen stare across the silent shadows at that white line and for a moment they think of the choky, gurgling cough of the men who die by gas. It is not pleasant to die by gas, “Connect up!” The arder comes down the line from one bay of the trench to another, and the gasmen fmmediately get busy. The front rows of neatly piled sandbags of which each fire-step is apparently sol- 1y built are pulled out and disclose a cavity in which show , black and ominous, the cowled heads of a row of iron cylinders. They are sunk in pits well ‘bagged up’ to protect them from possible crack or puncture by flying fragment or cicochetting mullet. Each cvlinder weighs about 130 pounds and contains sufficient compressed gas, if it could be used without waste, to put an entire company aut of action. “On top of the cylinders lies a tan- gle of flexible connecting. pipes, three and four way joints, spigots and screw Jets, and upon these, with spanner and key, the start work. The cylinders are all connected up in se- ries, and nothing remains but to throw the jets over the top of the yarapet and open the valves in order to release the deadly fume: omething is required to carry over to the German lines— favoring breeze—and never lid sailor scan the sky more intently than the gasmen watch their little, incon- spicuous wind gauges, fixed to the of a trench. They must have gasmen edge On tis- prefer it of a certain strength this occasion, the direction is factory enough, but the breeze s signg of weakness, and onally falls to a mere, almost hle zephyr. “When not watching the wind, gasmen are watching their pipes; peatedly feeling and testing every inch of tube and joint; for none know bet- ter than they the danger of leakage and of the cscape of gas into their own trenches Persistently an offi- er down the line, casting rapid though keen glances as he goes at each set of cylinders and their connecting pipes. And in every bay he pauses and whispers two words to the corporal in charge: ‘Eleven o'clock. But the wind, without which the gas will not reach the enemy's trench and do its deadly work among occupants, begins to peter out. “At ten-fifty the gasmen don their special respirators, which in the dim light, give the wearers a strange, al- most inhuman appearance Masked and goggled, with weird, trunk-like pieces of hose running from the mouthpiece to the hox of air-purify- ing chemicals strapped to their chests, they look like some of the un- earthly beings who people the hooks of Mr. H.

It is not for themselves they fear, but for those pipes and cylinder heads ly- ing bare and exposed to the hail of flying fragments. Well they know the danger of bursts and of trenches filled with gas and no wind to move it. But they cannot ‘bag up’ without orders, and so they detail one of their num- ber in each bay to watch the cylinders while the rest gather behind the tra- ve: as being a slightly safer spot. ‘When day breaks a falr wind s blowing, straight towards the German But, of course, it Is mnow light, and the gas will be visible as soon as it leaves the pipes. gasmen know what to expect. how that as soon as the green- clouds appear outside their parapet there will be running mes sengers and hurried telephoning in the German lines.

Ovar the top the jet-pipes are flung, and then, simultaneously long almost two miles of trench there rises a sibilant hiss, as of some mon- strous and venomous snake suddenly aroued from slumber.

And ‘crash’ again, and yet again. This time on the right, somewhere close | at hand. The men crouch lower over their cylinders; the explosions follow one another almost too rapidly to count, and in any case their minds are no longer fitted to count—or care. Only the valves must be turned, und | the pipes must be watched, and the | sudden spurt of vapor which marks | a leak must be checked by the ap- plication of a handful of mud, which the gas itself immediately freczes into | an iron-hard and impenetrable mass. | “In one of the bays, the parapet rocks suddenly and falls forward, burying the men and their cylinders. | Almost immediately the men scramble out unhurt; but the pipes are broken, | and the gas ih filling the trench. | With spanner and mud the thing is stopped, new connections are rigged up, and tht death vapor s again di- rected outside what is left of the trench. But one of the men has had the mouthpiece of his respirator broken, and already he is coughing and choking painfully. “I've got it!” he gasps hoarsely, and goes behind the traverse to suck an ammonia ampulse and die slowly. “Closing-up time! Rapidly the valves are shut down, the jet pipes | withdrawn and plugged and stacked away. Feverishly the men work at bagging up their cylinder again.

Quietly he directs two of the men to carry an uconscious case to the nearest point of the communication trench where tretcher bearers may be found “In the dug-out, with the shells still pounding overhead, the section’s roll is called.
