FRENCH vIcToRY REPORTED.

London.-An Antwerp dispatch to
the Reuters Telegram Company says:
at is reported here that General
Pau has won a brilliant victory over
$4,000 Germans near Peronnes, in the
Department of Somme."
The Germans have thrown forward
tremendous forces of fresh troops
along the 95-mile line extending from
villers, in the Department of the
Somme to Montherme, in the Depart
ment of Ardennes. Also the Kaiser's
forces hammering against the Allies
center have attained alternate sue
cesses with the French and British,
and on the left of the Allies line for
tune has turned in favor of the in
vaders, the Anglo-French defenders
being compelled to give ground.
On the other hand the right wing
of the Allies has taken the offensive
vigorously and the enemy is retiring
before the determined advance.
An official statement from the War
Office says: 1.-The Allies are holding
their own. AS yet our armies, not
withstanding a few incontestable
shecks, remain intact"
The Germans are only about 65 miles
from Paris, but the Allies still hold
Ostend, from which point British re-
Inducements for the Belgians may
still fall on the rear of the Germans.
With the Allies holding and the Ger
man force isolated from it's main sup
ports and increasing the distance from
its base with advance, the projecting
of these trained fresh British troops
into the conflict in the rear of the
Germans cannot but have a discon-
certing effect.
In addition to this, France has called
100000 additional reserves to active
service, and they will be ready to take
their places on the line within few
days.

scribes how the Gurkhas (native In
dian troops blew up German am
munition park, thus causing some of
the German coast batteries to move
to the rear. He says:
"At night the Gurkha detachment
embarked on gunboats which pro-
ceeded to the mouth of the User and
after q long silent march the Gurk-
has reached the German ammunition
stores guarded by six sentries. Six
silent figures moved toward them,
each carrying a long knife. Then a
sound like the croaking of q frog
was heard and the six sentries dis
appeared.
Shortly afterward the general staff
of the allies saw great flash of
light on the horizon and heard a
great explosion, followed by count
less others, as the shells and shrap-
mel in their cases exploded in all di-
rections. The Gurkhas returned
safely to the gunboats.''

peaceful, neutral trading vessels. In
this connection the Times says:
I'VE refer again to the disquieting

There is an increasing conviction that
this danger Will continue to grow and
that the only remedy is the closing of

traffic.
