THE LINEUP OF
THE FORCES

Paris, Sept. 26.-Heavy fighting ID
going ON At both the east and west
wings of the battle between the al.
lies and Germans in France, accord
ing to the official announcement is
sued this afternoon by the French
war department.
Following is the text of the COM
munication:
First, on our left wing between
the Somme and the Disc, the battle
continues very violently. Between
the river Disc and Soisons our troops
have advanced slightly. The enemy
has not attempted an attack.
Between Scissors and Rheims
there has been no important change
in the situation.
Second, on the center between
Rheims and Verdun, the situation al
SO is unchanged. In the Woevre re-
gion the enemy has been able to
cross the river Meuse in the vicinity
of St. Mihel, but the offensive TAX
en- by our troops already has, to a
large extent, thrown him back on the
river. ;p
ITO the south of the Woevre region
our attacks have not ceased to prog
ress. The Fourteenth German army
corps has fallen back after having
suffered great losses.
Third, on our right wing Tin
Lorraine and in the Vosges), the ef-
fective German forces seem to have
been reduced. These detachments Of
the enemy, which had at certain
points driven back our advances,
have been repulsed by the action
of our allies.
In the eastern zone the Russians
have captured Rxeszow on the rail-
road leading to Cracow and have also
taken two fortified positions to the
north and south Of Przemysl.
In Poland the Germans appear
to have fortified themselves to the
north of Kalisz."
