Further Rout of Enemy.

TN the Champagne district the
fighting has been going on with tenac-
ity along all the front. We have oc-
cupied at several places. notably at
Trou Bricot, to the north of the Wac
quez farm, several positions in the
rear of our new lines where certain
attachments of the enemy had been
able to maintain themselves.
THE previous statement that we
had captured 200 German officers is
erroneous; We have taken prisoner
300 German officers in the Cham
payne district.
Between the Meuse and the Mo-
selle and in the Lorraine district there
has been severe artillery fighting on
both sides.
