KEMALIST ATTACKS.
FROM A. BEAUMONT. ATHENS, WEDNESDAY (1.40 P.IN.). Smyrna despatches indicate a resumption of considerable activity in the sector of Afium-karahissar, doubtless justifying the transfer of the Greek headquarters from Brussa to Smyrna, which I telegraphed last night. The Kemlists had organised a combined attack from Touloubouna. in the north, and from Chivril, to the south of Afium-karahissar. For the northern attack they had brought a force of 12,000 infantry, 1,000 cavalry, and fifteen guns from Eskishehr. Their intention evidently was to destroy the railway and to cut the communications between Afium-karahissar and Smyrna. Had the attack succeeded three Greek divisions in the Afium-karahissar sector would have been cut off from their base. When the assault was made there was one Greek regiment at Touloubouna, which, by means of counter-attacks with the bayonet, was able to hold the position until the arrival of reinforcements from Afium-karahissar. The Turks, it is claimed, after three days of severe fighting, were routed and driven northward, where they are now retreating and leaving some prisoners and a great quantity of war material in the hands of the Greeks. The attack in the Chivril sector was easily repulsed, and the Turkish move was thus defeated on both sides.
