 Attacking on a front of 600 yards, 'iiC olti'oH touuJ uloNC III lhC tNO outer lines of the German salient at St. Eloi, south of Ypres
 The infantry attack was launched, following the explosion of series of mines, which shattered the German trenches and buried many of the de- lenders. Heavy casualties were in- flicted upon the Germans, both by the mine explosions and in the subse- qunt infantry fighting. The British made themselves masters of more than one-third of mile of strongly fortified important points of the Ger man line, where it juts into the allied front. a
 Following their occupation of the first two lines of German trenches the British opened strong lombard mant of the German positions in the rear. J
 The German official report issued early in the day admitted the de- structon of 100 yards of the outer trenches at St. Eloi by mine explo- sions. This initial success of the British was followed by the dashing infantry assault of this morning.
 Further to the east, the Germans attempted to storm the French de- lenses on the outskirts of Maucourt, between the Somme and the Avre.
 The Paris midnight communication says that assault failed completely.

El Paso, March 27.--Francisco Villa has been located again. He is work ing northeast from El Oso ranch along the dry bed of the Rio Carmen. A juncture with the forces of General Cerventes in the vicinity of San Lorenzo s believed to be the purpose of the move.
 General Pershing has divided his forces into four columns, with the cav. airy command of Coloiel Dodd lead ing the advance east of Cruces. Villa had a 20 mile lead on his pursuers. but his horses are tired The com mander of the cavalry column ex- poets to be pressing Villa hard be- fore morning, unless Villa diverses from his trail into the mountains.
 The other columns which have been ordered by General Pershing to join in the chase are at Colonia Chuibhuda. 1e0 miles east of Columbus; Ojo Tas. cate 1S0 miles due south of the border from her; and Rincon. len miles east of Madeira, and 22O miles south of Columbus tFU
 This information was received by General Gavira, Carranzza commander at Juarez early this evening.
 General Bertani in an earlier tele- gram to Consul Garcia said the Car ranza forces were on Villas trail and were cooperating with the Americans.
 General Gavira and Consul Garcia are pleased with the latest report. as they say they refute the charge that friendly Carranzistas permitted V lla 70 escape from the net thrown at Namiquipa four days ago. The only anxiety felt here by the American officers is that Villa has some cun- ming ruse in drawing the Americans into territory about which they know less thon the region already traversed.
 General Gavira said the American forces would be allowed to use the Mexican telegraph lines. which para lelled the Northwestern railroad from Juarez to Madeira. beginning tomor- roy morning. This will, of course, give direct communication with Casas Grandes and Colonia Dublan, the headquarters. .,s
