GERMAN ASSAULT ON
VERDUN CONTINUES

BY The United Press.
BERLIN, VIA THE HAGUE, Oct 2l.
The War Office announced today that
while severe fighting is in progress
along the line of the User river in Bell
gium. there has as vet been no decisive
result u is stated that the Germans
are gradually gaining ground in the
general direction of Dunkirk. The Ger-
man right wing is slowly adyanSng
from Lille, although the allies are
maintaining a particularly stubborn de-
fense The lighting is said to be gcn-
cral all along the right wing.
The assault ON Nerdun continues. An
along the heights OF the Meuse the
fighting continues.
In the eastern theatre Of war. it is
stated that the Russian cavalry failed
in an attempt TO raid the German lines
to the southwest of Warsaw. A com-
bined Austro- German cavalry force
trapped the Russians in a wooded sec
tion and defeated them with heavy loss.
Reports received from Vienna say
that the Austrians are driving the Rus
slams back at several points. Along
the southern line of the San river the
Ausirians are slowly making progress
toward Przemysl which is maintaining
stubborn resistance. The lighting .
constantly increasing in force.

NEW YORK, Oct 2l.-Nl a. MI
The allies are succeeding in bending
their battle line toward the main Ger
man defenses in Northern France and
Belgium. The towns now being men
toned in the official reports as the
present centers of the conflict are slight
ly to the east of perpendicular pass
ing through Arras.
Arras is the. natural. pivot, because OF
railway and highway connections for
an eastward swing by the allies against
the German northern communications.
Over a fortnight ago it marked the
limit of the French northern climb to-
ward Belgium. The efforts of the al
lies TO turn TO the east from Arras have
given the fundamental basis to their
northern strategy.
The necessity for assisting the es-
cape of the Anglo Belgian force from
Belgium caused a diversion and the
counter offensive of the Germans against
Dunkirk and other coast towns like
wise frustrated an immediate develop
ment of the movement from Arras.
The allied forces, owing to these
considerations, had to swing to the
WNoNs away AiOm lHt GeIuldn lines.
In doing this, they succeeded in re-
retaining their perpendicular as far
north as Arras. At Arras. their front
bent backward, that is, to the west.
toward the coast, to block the Ger
man counter offensive, and then
swung to the north to offer assistance
to the Anglo-Belgian army. Both
these manoeuvres succeeded. Won
Boehn's army, which had attempted
TO extend itself to Dunkirk and Ca
lais, from the east, suddenly found
itself in danger of being fanked at
st. Omer, twenty miles from its coast
al objective.
Thereupon a retreat was necessary.
and the Germans were driven back
thirty miles. This relieved the pres
sure on the Anglo-Belgians and in
sured their union with the main
French army. The thirty-mile retire
ment of the Germans Strengthened the
French line once more, causing it to
renew its perpendicular. Since then,
the French have been resuming their
original objective. trying to bend their
front eastward from Arras.
The Germans have thrown out an

little Girl falls
into 35-FOOT WELL
Norma Lane of Talleyville
Seriously Hurt By Plunge
Into CiStern
TAKEN STUNNED AND
CUT FROM DRY HOLE

Norma Lane, S-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel Lane, of near Tai
leyville. fell into well thirty-five feet
deep at the Lane farm yesterday after
noon about 4SO o'clock and was seri-
ously injured.
The well, from which the Lane fam
lily had obtained its drinking water, had
gone dry and men had been working
about it during the day. The little girl
fell through some boards with which the
hole was covered. Her sister, Alma, saw
her topple into the cistern and immedi-
ately summoned her father.
Little Norma lay stunned at the bot
tom of the thirty five foot hole. Fortu-
nately there was no water there, OF the
chances are she would have drowned.
Mr. Lane went down into the well with
ropes and removed his daughter, who
was found to be seriously cut and
bruised.
DIR. W. f. Postles was summoned
from this city and treated her. and
sewed up the lacerations. Her condi-
tion was such that he had to 90 to

NEW MOVES IN THE WAR
GAME AND WHAT THEY MEAN

advance entrenched force about ten
miles east of the Arras perpendicu-
lar. This force is in the vicinity Of
Lille and the French have begun
swinging toward it, They have got as
far as Armentieres, eight miles north
east Of Lille. and apparently Fournes,
the same distance southwest These
two towns are five miles east Of
Arras and mark the extreme advance
of the French northern Offensive. The
occupation of Lille is now the imme-
diate French objective. II Lille is
taken. the Germans will have to fall
back toward their principal northern
defences for a struggle which may
have a decisive bearing on their fu-
ture occupation of French territory.

LONDON, Oct 7I.-The British War
Office is confident that the German
movement to invade France by way Of
the seacoast has been completely check
ed. While severe fighting in this zone
can be expected for a long time to come
the situation now on the northern line
in France is an exact parallel Of that
which exists farther south. Both sides
are already entrenching. and can be ex-
pected to dig themselves in so that Il
will be hard to make progress either
way. The only obstacle is Of course the
nat character Of the country, which is
now mostly boggy as the result Of the
heavy rains. But both sides have learn
ed their lesson, and all of the reports
received here show that the trenches
now being dug are thoroughly drained
and fairly sanitary.
The Germans have brought up their
heavy artillery in the north aud with
this at the front they will now, if pre-
vious performances are followed, at
tempt TO push forward step by step, en-
trenching as they proceed.
All information received here by the
War Office shows that the general situ.
alton along the entire battle line IN
France is improving There is constant
lighting ON the east in the TERRITORY
along the meusa. and extending int
Lorraine and the \O.0r. The Fraurl
offensive seems 10 be gaining strength.
The Germans keep their advantage il
the neighborhood Of Lille because of th'
retaining there OF nearly two army
corps, who are strongly entrenched.

No details of the encounter have been

That British submarines would be
operating so far from their base
seems highly improbable The Island
OF Rugen is in the Baltic off the
coast of Germany and is the largest
of all German islands. If IL develops
that British submarines actually are

be found that they are accompanied
by a British fleet of considerable
