FIELD MARSHAL
REVIEWS FIGHT
British General Outlines Re-
treat of Germans During
Week to Government.
BY HERBERT temple,

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE official re-
ports of Field Marshal Sir John
French to the war office on the past
weeks fighting in France, which re-
suited in a general retreat of the Ger
mans, was made public by the govern
ment press bureau today.
1t shows that since the battle at Mons
on August %, the first German army
has been engaged in a colossal game
of strategy, endeavOring to duplicate
the BATTLE of Sedan by outflanking
and enveloping the left wing of the al
lied army in order to encircle both
the French and British and drive them
southwark
Field Marshal French shows that
the Germans drove southwark with
tremendous force, attempting to throw
wedge between Paris and the allied
army, but the strategy of the French
and British general staffs proved SUI
perior.
Sir John pointed out that the Ger
mans fully expected to carry out this
enveloping movement to a successful
conclusion and enter Paris. Letters
found on the bodies of German SOL
diers prove this, said the British gen.
eral. BY their ability to move forward
day after day after swinging through
eastern-northern France, the Germans
had to come to look upon victory as
being within their grasp, when the
tide suddenly turned.

Premier Broqueville, who is also
minister of war, issued the following
statement covering the operations Of

days:
after four days of hard fighting our
field troops which left fortified po-
sitions at Antwerp to attack the Ger
man forces in the Brussels -Louvain-
Malines triangle have returned within
the outer ring of the Antwerp forts.
Expected Sortie.
"The sortie, which at first seemed to
be merely skirmish operating against
covering troops, left by the enemy in
front of Antwerp, developed into a
conflict on an extensive scale. The
Third German army corps which had
left Ninove, 20 miles from Antwerp
for Nedbral, returned hastily and the
Ninth corps which was already march
ing southwark on the Audenarde road
was likewise recalled.
I'm view of the German concentra-
ton of the force available in this vi
cinity our army found itself after the
fourth day in the presence of superior
numbers, whereupon it returned to
Antwerp"

become between the two leaders that

The German forces in Belgium have
