Paris, Oct. 90 The French Off
cial communication issued tonight
says the Germans during the day
made an attack along the entire
front and everywhere were repulsed.
The text follows.
'Thc day has been characterized
by an effort on the part ot the Ger
mans along all parts of the front
to the extreme north where the Bel
eiUm army has held remarkably
we'll; at Labasse, where the German
troops have attempted an offensive
movement of particular violence to
the north of Arras between Peronne
and Albert, at Nauqurs to the east
of the Argonne and on the heights
Of the Meuse aud in the region of
Champion. Everywhere the German
! attacks have been repulscd.
One of the places whore the
French have been most harassed Is
near the elbow of the western line.
The important position there has
been takon and retaken frequently
during the last three weeks Every
time the Germans have been obliged
to abandon this position they re
turned in greater force and pushed
he French back, The French took
The position for the twelfth time
and held It 10 hours Then came
n shcck of the human hattering ram
and the French gradually gave way
The Germans began fortifying the
place and while they were engaged
in this task the earth hoaved and
death dealing explosion occurred,
The French held the position until
they could mine every rod of the
Ground 1t is estimated that three
| German battalions were annihilatcd.
The strength Of the German po-
sition north of Roye is explained by
| the fact that they were occupying
an unfinished canal extending rs far
| out as Poisel. The Germans found
in the deep cuttings magnificent en-
trenchments in which they installed
| batteries of artillery. Officers of
| the allies say they have noted that
about forty per cent of the shells
from these fail to explode. The
French artillery are careful in get
ting their ranges that they waste
| few shells.

Co.,, when that big concern installed new system of accounting. The arduous nature of his work shattered his con- stitution.

Later, feeling stronger, he went with the Locke Steel Belt Go. His last employment was for a short time with the Hawthorne Mfg. Co. Mr. Eagen was @ member of St. Mary s Roman Catholic church.
