Lowrie to-day declared that the
attack was all mistake. He said:

TO CLOSE THEIR
GRIP ON COMPLIES
Important Town on Albert
Perrone Railroad Is Vir-
tually in Pocket
AIRMEN ARE ACTIVE
SO CombatS Over Somme Lines;
French Aviator Flies to Rhine,
Dropping Bombs

Apparently the Franco British
forces on the Somme are preparing
to close their grip on Combles, the
important town on the Albert-Peronne
Railroad, six miles northwest of
Peronne, which has been virtually
pocketed by the allies in their recent
operations.
Last night the French War Office
reported the capture of a small forti-
fed position and some trench sections
close to Combles and to-day it an
nounces the French patrols have
penetrated still nearer the edge of the
town, bringing back prisoners. Raid
ing operations such as these are
commonly precludes to more compre-
hensive and forceful movem ents.
On the French front south Of the
Somme the artillery is active, prob
ably in preparation for further as
saults.
Sc Aerial Fights
Airmen on both the British and
French section of the line have been
busy. Yesterday French aviators took
part in Sc aerial engagements, in
which four German machines were
shot down.
British naval aeroplanes have raid
ed important German aviation sta
tions in Belgium, infiicting notable
damage upon the aerodrome at St.
Denis Westrem according to the Brit
ish official report.
A French aviator has visited the
Rhine region and dropped bombs in
the Palatinate and also at Mannheim,
where Paris reports large fires and
several explosions were caused.
Greek Situation Complex
The Greek situation continues COM
plex. A belated Athens dispatch re-
ports that definite proposals have been
made to the entente acceptance which
will insure the entry of Greece into
the war.
Former Premier Venizelos is
quoted as declaring that if the gov
ernment controlled by the court party
does not act, the nation itself must de-
fend its own interests.
The revolutionary fever Is reported
spreading but a mutiny on one of
the ships of the Greek navy, the
armored cruiser Averoff, is declared
to have been quelled.
