THE MORALE OF TIE FRENCH TROOPS
EXCELLENT.
'-'''-' METZ, HltgustT=SP.sH. f.
The morale Of our troops Is excellent,
1t Is impossible to give the exact tlghres Of
our losses. General CafIinieres Is organic.
ing defensive measures. The three corps
here are still able TO give the enemy much
trouble and stop his onward movement.
PARIS FREE FROM DANGER.
