Berlin Admits Ground Gained--Four- Mile Ad-

--Artillery Bombardments on French Front,
While French Claim Gains About Verdun
NO IMPORTANT
CHANGES ON THE
RUSSIAN FRONT

The British forces are rapping with
their big guns for admittance to the
Germans third line of defense along
the Somme, recording an advance of
four miles since July /. Berlin Off
cially admits that Gen. Haig's forces
have gained some ground and that
they have occupied the Trones wood.
British losses in the attack are de-
scribed by Berlin as most severe. The
Germans claim the attack has been
stemmed but say the fighting contin-
ues. In addition to pushing back the
Teutonic lines the British have cap
tured 1000 more prisoners. The Ger
man resistance has been stubborn, but
the British have been able, thus far,
to retain the positions attained. The
heavy fighting that has been going for
the last few days has dwindled to ar
tillery bombardments and compare
tive calm reigns on the front held by
the French.

French Gains

In the vicinity of Nerdun, the French
to the northwest of the fortress have
captured part Of the German first line
trenches in Theremont. The fighting
on the eastern front has begun again
with the Russians the aggressors. Ac-
cording to Vienna the Russians have
been repulsed. Neither the Vienna or
Petrogra d official communication
touches on the operations in the Car
pathian region, but Petrograd records
the capture from the Turks by the
Russians of the important town of
Baiburt. in Turkish armenia, 60 miles
south of the Black sea port of ire
bzond.
The Italians are still making Roadway
against the Austrians, according to Rome,
especially on the Posina line, and have
repulsed violent counter attacks with
heavy losses to the Austrians.
To the south of the Somme the Germans
Saturday night in strong attacks launched
under the cover Of fog captured La Mai
sonnette and the village of Biaches, while
farther south they penetrated first line
French trenches. From all these places
they We're driven out later by the French
in heavy counter attacks. In the Cham
payne region there is again great activity
by the French troops. who are being aided
in their raneuvers by the Russians who
recently came to France.

and receiving the cheers Of British infan-
try. Such low flights have resulted in
remarkably intimate scouting.
The scene of action has been carried
for the first time beyond the second
main line of German defenses since
stationary warfare began on the west
ern front. Officers returning from the
front line speak Of seeing abandoned
German guns, but say they are too
busy fighting to bother to bring them
in.
The most dramatic situation in the
battle comes when German gunners
strive to draw off their guns with
British infantry within rife range. In
the grinding conflict, which is courage
ously forced to close quarters, neith-
err the ground taken nor the number Of
prisoners is expressive of the results
or the stake for which both sides are
fighting.
British commanders merely say that
they have advanced further than they
expected and repeat the proceeding
through various stages in the long and
immense undertaking.
A German Complaint
Among the documents captured is
the complaint Of division commander
of the destruction Of a German battal-
ion by their own gunfire The prisoner
taken complained that the only persons
in Germany who really had enough to
eat were the British prisoners, thanks
to parcels sent them from home and to
American interests in their welfare
Generally they complain more of the
British artillery than of the food short
age. They think that Germany is in no
danger Of starving and that the war
will be decided by fighting like that Of
the last two weeks, where every gun,
rifle, man. trench or gully or tree
which gives cover will count.
II is difficult for anyone not at the
front to realize the change in the new
army wrought by these two weeks,
thanks to the first continued offensive
which is giving the troops practical les
sons day by day.
