LONDON. Feb. 25.-The importance to England of the fight raging before Verdun was emphasized by Major Gen. eral Lloyd, commanding the London district, in a speech:
 ''In the great war proceeding every individual must give up self absolute ly and all must unite in one bond td make the war result in victory. If once the Allies lines are pierced the way will be open to the French capi- tai and if that capitl is reached a new complexion will be put on the whole face of the war. our lives and being. German success on the French front will not merely mean the loss of Paris but will endanger London"
 The report of German gains north of Verdun strengthened the feeling Of confidence in the outcome of future events. The news provoked no noti- ceable furry in Berlin and no flags were shown. As to prisoners taken. the victory of the Germans IS one on- ly fourth as great as that achieved by the Entente Allies in September where three days gun fire preceded the at- tack.

Teuton Offensive Only Beginning Of Colossal Effort, Is Belief Of Experts. Fortnight Battle Pre- dicted
GERMANS NU BER
 3OO,OO0 STRONG
Teutons Have Prepared For At- tack Since December. Flower Of Germany Army Fights ln Presence Of Emperor

PARIS, Feb. 25.-The German loss es in the first few days of the bttle of Verdun are estimated at 150.000 The Ger an offensive is recognized as prchatly only the beginning of an eff fort to take the fortress, formerly the key to the French frontier. II com the battle of he Yser The French battle may continue a fortnight. It is believed the calm of last night was only a Hull required to bury the dead, dispose of the wounded and bring up reserves to supplant the divisions half destroyed by the French artillery and machine guns. The German forces arc known to be at least 100000 men.
 The Germans are supported by num- erous fifteen and seventeen inch nor tars, all of the heavy artillery used in the Serbian campaign, and part of that formerly used on the Russian front. Preparations for the lombard ment were observed early in Decem- Der when the first troops, assigned to the operation were brought up. Eight divisions which returned from Ser bia were sent sent to Belgium to rest and then transported to the region of Verdun in January. Five army corps are known to have been brought to reinforce two corps previously hold ing that part of the line between Etain and Vauquers.
 These were the best troops of the the German ary, including it is learn ec fro mprisoners, the famous Third corps of Bradenburg, supposedly the equal in valor to the Prussian Guards; also the Fifteenth Army Corps com known in France as one of the most brilliant German general officers. The resoluteness O fthe Germans to cap ture the fortress is explained by the fascination that the name Verdun had to the minds of the Germans, since 1792, consequently the moral value to it's fall to the Germans This is the psychological reason, in judgment of official critics. that explains the pres ence of Emperor William behind his troops.
 The French compare the ground the Germans gained in four days with twice that amount the French took in the first two days of their offensive in Champaign. together with eight times the number of prisoners. The French confidence is unshaken by the fierce attacks and the slight bending of the French linss.
