cry of two furious assaults.
The fist was series of massed
counter attacks directed at the
French and British line north of the
Disc river designed to break the pres
5ure which threatens the &c man
limos of communication into Belgium.
The action in this vicinity was so
severe that the French we're com
PEELED to give grounds at several
points. This is not significant, how
ever, of general recession. Rather
t means that advanced French and
British positions were assailed and
forced to withdraw TO the more heav-
lly entrenched and fortified line OF
he main body. where the big guns
Ifford better protection. The battle
n this region still RACES furiously
with no decisive result.
Second. the German left developed
surprising strength in counter attacks
delivered during the night and repeat
ed at intervals during the day. but
without gain to the enemy, the
F-ench line holding fast.
In the other sections of the battle
