DOUAUMONT ATTACKS
VIRTUALLY FAILED
French Official Statement
Admits Loss of a Part of
Cumieres and Part of a
Trench West of Fort D0u-
aumont, but Declares That
the Germans Spent Lives
Recklessly

Paris, May 24.--The battle around Yer
dun continues to rage with violence un
exampled even in this region. The Ger
mans are striving with every resource te
capture hill So4 and Dead Mans hill or
the left bank of the Meuse and to wiz
back the famous Fort Douaumont on the
seeing so much of its work undone, the
German command hurled attack after at
tack against the fort, at the same time
keeping up the onslaught on the lett
bank, preventing the French from trans
ferring forces to the scene of the main
attack. All day yesterday the tide OF
war ebbed and flowed and inches of
ground were won and lost at appalling
cost in men; but when night fell the po-
sitions on both sides were practically un-
changed
Last night powerful offensive was
undertaken by the Germans east of Dead
Mans hill ON the Verdun front and in
general 1t was successful. The war Office
says that after a fierce hand-to-hand
struggle, the attacking forces made their
way into portion of the village of Gu
mieres. The German attacks on Douau
mont virtually failed, they taking only a
small part of trench west of the fort
with reckless expenditure of lives.
The Attack on Dead Mans Hill.
The official communication issued by
the war office last night reads:
'Tn the region of Verdun the German
counter attacks took on a character of
extreme violence along the whole of our
front without it being yet possible to
specify the considerable electives en-
gagged.
"On the left bank of the Meuse after
bombardment with large shells all morn
ing the Germans launched on several oc-
casions their assaulting masses against
our positions to the east and west of lie
Mort Homme. The first attack moved
down by our artillery and machine gun
FIRE was repulsed with sanguinary losses
without the enemy having been able to
reach our lines.
"A second attack, likewise desperate,
about O'Clock in the evening succeeded
in gaining footing in one of our trenches
to the west An immediate counter at
tack drove out the enemy.
ION the right bank of the region Of
Haudromont- Douaumont was all day the
theatre of a murderous struggle. The
Germans multiplied their assaults which
were preceded each time by very power
full artillery preparations.
"Despite all three efforts the positions
conquered by us yesterday were main
tanned in their entirety notably in Fort
Douaumont. In this region more than
800 prisoners remained in our hands"

which, in German eyes. was TO prove
BY the British fleet between them and

the Impotence" of the German fleet,
Mr.. Balfour points To the ever inCreas-
ing flow Of men and munitions from
England pouring across the channel
into France. 1T has reached colossal
proportions" he continues. Its effect
on the war may be we'll decisive. Yet
never has it been more secure from
attack By enemy battleShips or cruts'
ers than il has been since the Ger.
man victory of Jutland."
The FIRST lord refers TO German ex
portations to look az the map and see
the effect Of German attacks. and
adds:
That depends on what maps YOU
take Even the map Of Europe shows
an ever shrinking battle line. But
look at the map Of the Eorld. All OF

East Africa. which even as write
seems slipping from her grasp. Has
the battle of Jutland opened the small
est prospect Of Germany regainine
these colonies or giving moments

Mr.. Balfour advises those requiring
further proofs of the value the Ger
mans attach 10 their victorious fleet
to study the German policy of sub
marine warfare. and says:
The advantage of submarine at
tacks on commerce is that they can
not be controlled BY superior fleet
power in the same way as attacks by
cruisers: a disadvantage is that they
