GERMANS HURLED BACK BY

PARIS REPORT.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Paris, Feb. 29.-The tide of battle
around Verdun apparently has not
turned in favor of either side. While
the Germans claim further advances,
the French are equally emphatic in
their assertion that they checked the
attacks of the masses of German in
fantry sent against them. Fort Dou-
aumont has fallen to the Germans,
but it is reported to be ruins. Around
this position the most desperate
fighting of the battle has been going
on since Friday. Here French coun.
ter attacks were delivered with such
crushing force that some of the Ger.
man detachments were driven back,
and one regiment Is almost encircled.
To the west of this fort. in hand.to-
hand encounter. the French have
elected the Germans from a small re-
doubt which they had captured.
Throughout the entire sector OF
Verdun, except on the western bank
OF the Meuse river. where the Ger
man bombardment has slackened
somewhat, the artillery duels are
still of vast proportions. To the
southeast the French at Fresnes, in
the Woevre region, have put down
two German attacks against that
town, but the Germans have inaugu-
rated an important movement in the
Champagne district where by a sur
prise attack they succeeded in enter
ing French advance positions of a
supporting trench over a front OF
nearly a mile. capturing more than a
thousand men.
Notwithstanding the fresh reserves
the French have thrown into the af-
fray at Fort Douaumont, the German
war office declares that their efforts
have been fruitless and that the Ger.
mans have advanced their lines to-
ward Bras and Vacherauville 1t
also is claimed that the Germans
have entirely expelled the French
from the Meuse peninsula. southwark
from Samogneux and west of Vacher.
awhile.
Paris military critics predict that
few Of the original attacking force.
100000 Germans, will be left after the
"first fighting" and assert that all
this sacrifice by the Kaiser is for an
empty shell as the French have "un.
classed" Verdun and sent all provi.
sions and arms to the rear.
On the Russian front around Fried.
richstadt and llloukst there have
been heavy artillery, machine gun and
rifle firing. In Galicia the Russians
repulsed an attempt by the Austrians
to capture trenches.
