SHRAPNEL AND SNIPERS.

"ONE CANNOT STIR." THE WAY TO CONSTANTINOPLE. FIFTY PER CENT. CASUALTIES. Press Association. WELLINGTON, July 27. General Godley, writing to the Minister of Defence, slated: — "One cannot stir here without a chance of meeting shrapnel or the sniper's bullet. They talk of casualties in France, but I fancy they are not anything to what they have been here. My division alone landed 8543 strong. I have had 4250 casualties. In the Australian division the proportion is, I believe, higher." General Godley concludes: — I hope the reinforcements coming may enable us soon to make a start for Constantinople.
