London, Aug. 25.-Thc Official
statement issued by the War Office
tonight says:
West Of Ginchy the enemy last night,
to the strength Of about two companies,
attempted to attack our trenches, but
was driven back by our machine gun
fire. The enemy's guns maintained a
fairly heavy fire last night on these
trenches, and this continued to-day. He
also bombarded trenches we captured
last night near Delville Wood.
There was much artillery activity by
both sides on various parts Of the front.
We captured two machine guns yester-
day near Delville Wood. Ninety pris-
oners, beside those already reported,
were passed back to-day on the front
between Mouquet Farm and the Leipzig
salient.
Two aeroplane raids were carried out
against some of the principal railroad
sidings on the enemy's lines of com
munication. Several trains were hit
and considerable damage was caused to
rolling stock. Other points Of military
Importance were also bombed. Hostile
aircraft generally avoided combats, but
there were some engagements, in which
a number of enemy machines were dam
aged and driven down. One of our ma
chimes was brought down by the enc
my's guns.
