LONDON, oct. Is.-.'The severe
lighting of the last few days has
been mainly in the northwest OF
France" says the Paris correspond
ent of the Express, and has re-
suited strongly in favor of the allies.
Unless the Germans bring heavy
reinforcements there is little danger
of their reaching a channel port
Albert and Arras are in the hands
of the French, but are still being
bombarded. One French army corps
has captured thirty-siN field gins.
The Germans are continually re-
ceiVing reinforcements of guns ana
men, but the allies are also strength
ching their lines.
Between Roye and l,assigny the
battle is still Undecided. Many OF
the towns have been reduced TO
ruins and none of the civil popula-
ton remains
,"The splendid service on the
French railways has been a heavy
asset for the allies. enabling them TO
move troops rapidly and smoothly
whenever needed.
The correspondent of the Times in
Paris, in a review of the situation on
the French battle front, says:
1.-The German army corps which
drove the French from Lille had little
effect upon the whole SITUATION. be-
tween the River Lys and the town or
La Bassee, thirteen miles southwest
OF Lille, the situation remains un-
changed The Germans destroyed the
town hall at Arras, a fine sixteenth
century building.
sThe enemy has abandoned the at
tempt to batter q way to Paris
through Roye. although guns are still
active there The enemy is also slack
ening its efforts on the heights of
Brimont and southeast of Rheims,
where the allies have taken several
formidable trenches.
THE German efforts to envelop Yer
dun from the north and from the
southeast have been defeated. The
