 LONDON. July .. 10:17 D. m.-The French continue 10 make more pro sress than the British on the. western front. owing partly to the more diff cult ground facing the British and also to the fact that stronger forces are opposing them because Of the be- lief among the Germans that the main attack in the present operations will be on the British front.
