spite was given last night to the Ger
man forces entrenchcd along the 90
mile battle front. The batteries of the
allied forces never ceased firing all
night, although their activity dimin-
ished somewhat after shutdown.
TIE Germans occupying the trenches
kept constantly on the alert, but un-
til 2 o'clock this morning, an agrees
sive move was started from the al
lies lines, facing them Then all the
allied batteries seemed to open fire to-
gether and every point along the front
became very active. At the western
end of the line, the allied infantry
gathered in the trenches and stimuli
taneously at various points crept out
and advanced cautiously III wide open
line towards the German positions. The
French and British on several occa-
sions succeeded in surprising and driV-

trenches, but only after the most stub
born fighting and after heavy losses

Tending forces

retained the ground captured and i'm
me1iately dug themselves in.
Further east, the Germans them
selves developed a strong attack, but
were beaten back with the bayonet,
only to return again and again. to be
finally driven off to their original po-
sitions. The allied commanders were
able to give the troops who had been
occupying the advance firing line a
welcome rest pushing to the front
fresh brigades of batteries heretofore
held in reserve and which were only
too anxious to come into actual con-
flict.
Military experts estimate that near
" 100000 men are now in the zone
where the battle has been in progress
10 days.
