War in the Air.
DARING DEEDS OF BRITISH. [Aust. and N.Z. Cable Association.} LONDON, Jan. 16. Sir Douglas Haig reports: There has been the usual exchange of artillery lire. Our aeroplanes last night dropped a ton of bombs on the Thionville (or Diedenhofen) steelworks, midway between Luxemburg and Metz, and a further half-ton on two large railway junctions in the neighbourhood of Metz. There were considerable anti-aircraft gun and searchlight barrages, but all our machines returned.
