Show FIGHT GERMANS WITH WATER. Dykes Are Cut and Five Thousand Soldiers Are Drowned. London. The cutting of the dykes in the low country southeast of Dix-mude Dix-mude flooded out a large German force, says the Sunday Observer's correspondent in France. Some estimates esti-mates place the German losses there at 5,000 drowned, besides 30,000 killed and wounded. This may give some hint, the dispatch adds, as to what is meant when it is declared that the fighting in this region is the most desperate of the entire war thus far. |
