Egypt
STANDING THE TEST.
TURKISH ATTACK AGAIN PROBABLE. United Press Association. ' Cairo, February 11. An eyewitness says that ttie Hiitish fire was "deadly accurate." The Turkish dead lying everywhere made n ghastly sight, many bodies without heads or limbs, and carrion feeding on the bodies. If the Turks were merely testing the Canal defences they must have been convinced that the.-io are impenetrable. . The Times! military correspondent says that General Maxwell's preparations to defend Egypt have been tested' and found satisfactory. The Turks have proved that they can cross the desert in some strength, bringing heavy guns. We must, therefore suppose that the attack will be renewed.
