CL|NCH VICTORY
French Advance to Vaux VII
lage and Hold Heights.
BY c. r. BERTELLI.

=
Paris, Nov. S.-Gen. NiveIIe crowned
the greatest positive French victory OF
the war yesterday evening when he oc-
cupied Fort VauN. the last OF the Verdun
strongholds occupied by the Germans
That it was bloodless triumph is due
not to German generosity in yielding an
undesired position, but to the awful gun
fire to which the famous ridge was sub
jected.
The French today enlarged their sue
cesses by a series of brilliant attacks
which. the midnight communiuue an
nounces, has enabled them to advance as
far as Vaux village besides winning a foot.
hold on the hill which dominates the vii.
lage. The Germans made no effort e
Counter-attack.
The day was quiet on the Somme fol.
lowing the French successes of earlier
In the week in the sector of Les Boeufs
and Sally -Saillisel.
The occupation OF Fort Vaux marks the
first great tactical triumph won in the
whole war without the loss of life. And
the explanation therefor is Frances de.
velopment in gun powder.
Technically. Fort Vaux was rendered
untenable when a fortnight ago Gen.
Mangin seized Douaumont and drove a
wedge between that fort and the village
Of Vaux. The result was to expose Vaux
fort to a converging fire, but the fort was
in precisely the same position as during
last May and June. yet at that time Mai
Raynal held up the crown princes ad.
vance for a month and inflicted terrible
slaughter on the German assailants be-
fore captivating. The capture of Fort
Vaux alone cost the Germans 5000 per
manent casualties.
