Langle de Cary by attack ing in flank the forces of the Duke of Wuerttemberg, Langle de Cary en- tered Vitry-le-Francois, which was full of wounded and progressed toward Sermaize. The struggle between the Crown Prince and Sar- rail was still undecided. At Thriau- court Sarrail captured ammunition and on the other side of the Mouse the Germans completed the destruction of the forts of Troyon and attacked Sar- rails rear, but were repulsed. They tried to cross the Mouse lower down toward Saint Mihiel, but the French 3-inch guns destroyed each bridge as soon as thrown across.

The Germans left 5O,0OO dead, while 25o,0O0 wounded of both armies were picked up during and after the battle by the Allies stretch CT bearers. The number of prison CTS taken Is still unknown.

 Several villages were retaken by the Germans and the pressure everywhere was severely felt. The day was saved for the army of Paris by the 2nd Zouaves round Etrepilly, where the most violent attacks were repulsed, at such a cost to the Germans that they found it necessary to burn their dead. The British troops accentuated their advance, punishing severely the cav- airy divisions of the Prussian guard by remarkable charges of the 9th Lan- cers and the 18th Hussars.
 Franchet d'Esperey took at the point of the bayonet Vieux Maisons and Pierreby on von Kluck's left, and after several violent combats crossed the Grand Morin, occupied Jouy-sur- Morin definitely and took up position on the Petit Morin.
 Foch, overrun by numbers on his right, held good until the 11th corps, weakened; then established his line a little in the rear of the front Salon. Gougancon-Counatre-Allemand.
 The 18th corps of General Langle de Cary's army, heavily punished, was sent to the rear to be reorganized. Six battalions of this corps-the least tried-sustained alone the attack of 25,0OO Germans all the evening.
 The German attacks were arrested around Samplers by the 18th division of the 21st corps, which lost it's chief, Rarbade. as we'll as Colonel Hamont and a great many other officers.
 The army of General Sarrail and that of the Grown Prince of Prussia continued their duel, without result.
