Seaplane Attack in Finland. ACCORDING to official information received in Stockholm, .three seaplanes participated in an attack on Kuelajaervi on ~. August 25th, and the Finnish Government has ordered itsLegation at Stockholm to lodge a protest with the Entente -;. Legations. Six bombs are said to have been dropped and. .^machine guns fired at German and Finnish troops. The - machine is said to have been painted grey with large black .'rings under the planes. The Helsingfors newspapers say that it is incredible that British craft took part in the attack, y.but the Government should take steps to clear the matter up. ~ r Record Aerial Mail Run. t WHAT is declared to be the longest air mail-carrying tripon the American Continent was completed on September 4th, when a pilot covered 540 miles, from Toronto to Ottawa and .back, in 11 houra. The Canadian Postmaster-General says that the recent *aerial mail service experiments between Toronto and Ottawa _ have demonstrated the practicability of such a service. The New French Bombing Planes.THE Petit Parisien, discussing the work of the Allied Air Services, says the Germans have just recently made theacquaintance of our new bombarding planes, to the con- •£' struction of which a great deal of attention has been paid £during the past few months. This aeroplane shows an extremely appreciable improvement on any earlier machine -7used by the enemy, or indeed on any other type. How the Australians Bagged an 11-in. Gun. MR. BEAN, correspondent with the Australians, describinghow a German 11-in. railway gun was captured on August 8th, -_ says that Queensland infantry saw a train apparently trying ~to get off one line on to another to escape. In the centre of : the train was a great sheeted object. A British plane dropped wa bomb near the engine, which apparently damaged it, for a ". great steam cloud went up, and the crew, who were after- i..wards captured, were terribly scalded. The plane then -F dropped a bomb on the tail of the train, which blew up. AnAustralian engineer got up steam, unhooked the tail of the train, and shunted the gun through No Man's Land on to arail leading into our lines. IO24
