SWEEPING VICTORY FOR ALLIES IS OFFICIALLY
REPORTED BY THE WAR BUREAU OF
THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT

OBy Ed L. Keen, United Press Staff
Correspondent)
London. Sept 12.-That the situa-
ton in France has materially improved
was the declaration tonight Of the Of
ficial war bureau. The Germans are
retreating all along the line of the
great battle while the localized situa-
tion, now officially designated as the
battle of the Marine, resulted in a
sweeping victory for the allies.
The bureau confirms the report that
the French army for the defense of
Paris co-operated with the allies and
as a result the victory was complete.
In its statement the bureau reviewed
the operations of the last four days. 1t
shows conclusively that General Won
Kluck overran his communications and
got so far south that only retreat that
was of the swiftest character saved
him from total annihilatlon. The Of
ficial statement as issued at midnight
said:
Right Wing in Danger

had reached Coullomiers in the depart
ment of the Seine ct Marne on the

cavalry was held in the concentration
camps at the south. The British cav
airy and small percentage of the
French was utilized to cover the re-

Cavalry Covering Itself With Glory.
Today the French cavalry, admitted
ly the greatest mounted force in the
world, is covering itself with glory 1t
Is pursuing the retreating Germans
everywhere. Charging their rear
guards and breaking through their de-
fensive lines. the French cavalry is in
flicting desperate losses on the retir-
ing columns.
Heavy rains have added to the Ger
man difficulties. The roads have been
flooded. bitches and small streams are
overflowing. The big rivers, hereto
fore sluggish, are now swift torrents
and hard to cross. The German trans
port service has been badly cut up.
Their store of pontoon bridges has
been exhausted and at many points it
Is necessary for the retr eating troops
to swim the river at fords.
Emphasizing tho fact that the Ger
man retirement is an enforced retreat
and not strategic movement, is the
statement by General Gallieni, mill
tary governor Of Paris, that the Ger
mans are pressed so hard by the
French that they are unable to bury
their dead This is especially the case
at Vltry lie Francois. where the Ger
man center. after desperately trying
for four days to break through the
French lines, was finally driven from
its entrenched positions with enor-
nous losses.

concerned, it was stated tnat the army

tions.
In East Prussia the Germans are re-
ported to have defeated the Russians
in the Masur lake region. The fighting
here is a continuation of that which
began in the region between Lyek and

defeated with the loss oz nearly half
its strength. The three brigades in
this corps, made up exclusively of
Finnish troops, were badly cut up.

Germans are said TO be following up
their advantage.

Paris Sept. 12.-The general retreat
continues al lalong the line, including
the crown princes army.
This was the official announcement
from General Gallieni, military COVER
nor of Paris. at 1880 tonight. 1t en-
phaszed what has been evident all
day, that the Germans have been de-
cisively defeated and are being forced
TO withdraw everywhere to refit and
fll their broken ranks. The rout of
the German right wing is complete.
The abandonment Of the positions near
Vitry lie Francois indicated that the
German center had weakened. But the
army of the crown prince was there,
the picked forces of all Germany, and
there had been a disposition to be-
lieve that It might yet be able to cause
trouble. Therefore, the assurance Of
the veteran Gallieli was doubly well
come.
French Fight Like Demons.
The general falling back of the Ger
mans to new positions along the
Franco-Gernan frontier now Is expect
ed. The spirit of the French troops
has undergone a remarkable change.
The depression caused by the contin-
uous retreat before the oncoming Ger
man hosts has been swept away. In
the field the French are now declared
to be lighting like demons.
The chief difficulty the French off,
GERS are now experiencing is the curb
ing of the impetuosity of their men.
The French soldiers want to use the
bayonet. They chafe when held back
so that the way may be cleared with
the artillery. When the orders come
to charge they sweep down on the
German lines with utter disregard OF
death
The French offensive. drilled into
every French schoolboy since 1870. is
now in full swing everywhere. The
wisdom of General Joffre's strategy is
now being felt While the harassed
