quests from these countries have been
rejected by England.
Officials here yesterday were not in
clined to credit reports that Sir Cecil

Great Battle Is Raging Be-

Paris, OCT 25--A German advance
In Belgium was counter balanced to-
day by French successes in the region
of Verdun. The Kaiser's forces had
slightly the better of hard lighting
at the extreme west of the line. but
General JofTre's troops dealt destruct-
i've blows toward the extreme east.
The general situation. q indicated ny
the official reports, remains the same
inc ssant. violent fighting, with no de-
ctsive outcome.
Veering from the seaeoast and pun
ishment by British and French naval
guns, the Germans hurled an army
against the Beigians defending the
River User and were able to cross
the User between Newport and Dix
nude, probably at point about six
miles from the coast line. The Ger
mans brought heavy guns from Leke
and krupps. determined to end the
conflict IT had taken the Kaiser's
troops ten days to beat back the gall
liant army commanded by King AL
bert
Allies Win Near yerdun.
The Victories of the allies were won
north and south of Ferdun in the con-
sistent effort TO protect that fortress
at St MihieI. The army OF the Crown
Prince was beaten in the Argonnes for
est and a regiment of his troops were
cut to pieces Almost simultaneously
French artillery destroyed three Ger
man batteries on the upper Meuse, pre-
sumably in the attack on the German
fortigcations at st Mihiel and Camp
Des Romans. and French artillery
was advanced to command the German
line of communications from st. MI
HEEL eastward Six batteries have been
put out of action within two days by
the French guns.
General Joffre's summary OF the OPP
erations on the west flank was that
the Germans attacked violently from
Newport TO the Disc, but that they
were beaten back everywhere except
at the User. AS on previous days. the
German onslaught was fiercest near
Lille. where the effort is to seize this
railroads toward Calais and Boulonge,
but the allies lire was unbreakable.
Along the old center. where en-
trenched troops have faced each other
for foriy-three days. there was re-
the allies. Near Soissons and near
Craonne. the British and French troops
gained advanced positions.
There is unofficial news that the
Anglo French fleet retains command
of the Belgian coast and that the Ger
mans may have to evacuate 0stend and
other points where troops could be
landed by the allies.
