Part of France.

London.a Oct. 23.--11:2O a. m.-The
official information bureau has givea
out another eye witness account Of
recent European war operations. This
recital is dated October II and ex-
plains at the outset that, with the
arrival of reinforcements the British
have been able to play a more prom
inent part in exerting pressure on the
enemy and in the gradual extension
to the northward, which has thrown
British troops to the Franco Belgian
border.
up till recently" says the state
ment, the extension northward had
been carried out by the French alone
The narrative goes on to explain
that there have been actions in the
two western theaters of tn war from
Nieuport south and along the Aisne
and continues:
In both these theaters the results
attained, without being in any way
decisive have been entirely satisfac-
tory and in furtherence of the allies
general campaign plan.
I'm the southern part of the two
spheres in which We have been en-
gagged en- the Aisne, our right wing
has been maintained it's pressure
without actually moving forward
while in the northern sphere our left
wing has advanced a considerable dis
lance in face of some opposition.
"On the Aisne since the repulse Of
the enemy the night of October 10,
there has been no serious fighting for
the misty and occasional rainy wealth
er has rendered almost impossible the
operation OF guns
The positions of the opposing
forces virtually nave remained I'M
changed
In the north of France the fighting
so far has been of preparatory ma
ture, alone. As stated ground has
been gained by us but the misty
weather has hampered aeriai recon-
naissances and artillery cooperation
and these factors, together with the
nature of the terrain have made pro-
gress somewhat SLOW"
The narrative here describes the
nature Of the country along the Bel
gan frontier, explaining that hedges
are frequent and trees obstruct the
view and means of communication
are bad
1T is in this nature the German ad
vanced guards near the Belgian from
tier are engaging the advanced troops
of the enemy. AS was the case In our
advance up to the Aisne the enemy
is making every effort to delay our
progress no doubt to give the strong
er forces behind time to perfect their
arrangements. SO far in our advance
we have inflicted considerable loss
on these detachments They have
made determined counter attacks.
North of the Yys progress has
taken place near Mont Descates. On
the right to the south of Lys pro
gress has been slower, partly be-
cause the terrain affords greater fac
ilities to the forces acting on the de-
Tense and partly because the enemy
has had more time for preparations
and is in greater strength. The mum
circus dikes in this low lying part CT
the country are so broad and deep as
to necessitate the transport of planks
and ladders by which to cross them.
1t is in this quarter that the most
obstinate ccmbats for the possession
of VILLAGES have taken place and that
