the French have made considerable
advance to the northwest. The country
is rolling one, intersected by streams,
canals and perfect network Of roads
running in all directions.
The French report admits that the
Germans have succeeded in gaining n
footing on the Meuse heights and have
pushed forward in the direction OF st.
Mihiel, bombarding the forts of Paroches
and the Roman camp, which face each
other across the Meuse. The communica-
ton, however, adds that on the other
hand, to the south of Verdun the French
remain master OF the heights of the
Meuse and that their troops, debouching
from Toul have advanced in the region
of Beaumont.
In the center, to the east of Rheims,
the French have made some progress but
elsewhere nothing of Importance has hap
pened so far as is shown in the official
reports, and no other information is
available, as the strictest censorship has
now been established.

dent in April 1918. was not repaired, and
that a makeshift arrangement by which
the stock cable was fastened to the rub
bish cable apparatus was effected. Mr..
Mullin did this work a short time be
