GERMANS CHECK FRENCH.
Reports Indicate Prussian Victory in
the Arg0nne Region.

Paris, Dec. 23.-The action between
the armies seems to have been trans
ferred to the end of the line away
from Flanders. In the latter locality
there is every Indication that both
armies are profiting from heavy fogs
and other unfavorable conditions to
obtain a much needed rest after fight
ing themselves almost into a state OF
exhaustion.
Between the Mouse and the Argonne
forest. however, the French have
had almost universal success, meeting
with only one check to their prog.
ress. The district where the Germans
appear to have checked the French,
if not to have won victory over
them, is in the vicinity of Bourvuilles.
where on Monday the French infantry
and marine fusillers attacked and
gained fOOthol1 in the first line of
German trenches, following this up
yesterday with further progress. To-
day the war office admits the Ger
mans have rallied here and that the
outcome seems to be fairly serious"
The engagements all along the line
are being fought with conspicuous
gallantry on both sides. The French
are fighting like horde of onrushing
demons and the Germans are report
ed to be meeting all assaults with a
| splendid courage that commands the
admiration Of their foes.
| In the fighting around the woods
of Forgue, the French have used the
bayonet with great success. With a
series of charges they succeeded In
penetrating to the barbed wire en-
tanglements of the Germans at the
salient east of Cuisy, and tonight are
resting on their arms before these
defenses. 1t is probable that tomor-
rows fighting will be through these
barbed wire ENGAGEMENTS, as the
French soldiers are specializing in
night attacks on certain impediments
to their progress.
The greatest progress made by the
French has been in the vicinity OF
Perthes-les- Hurlus, on the western
edge of the Argonne forest, where
they were enabled to gain 800 yards.
The French infantry emerged from
this conflict with fresh laurels for
courage and resourcefulness. while
the Germans, although beaten back
stood their ground until there was
no hope of success.
