HAND -TO-HAND CONTESTS
MARK NIGHT ALONG S0MNlE;
BRITISH STIFFEN LINES

LONDON, July p.
Hand-to-hand encounters with the Ger
mans, with an active artillery pounding
continuing throughout the night was re-
ported today by General Sir Douglas Haig.
He said the Teutons were using quantities
of tear shells
mo event of Importance" was reported
by the British Commander-in-Chief.
Throughout the night" he said. Our
artillery was active. We continued to press
the enemy in hand-to-hand encounters at
various points. Elsewhere the enemy was
using gas and tear-producing shells. There
was no event of Importance"
Within the next few days the British
advance lines must withstand Germany's
most powerful counter-attacks since the
start, of the Allied offensive. Newly won
positions near Pozieres, from which the
Teutons were forced out will be the point
of attack.
This was the opinion Of military observers
here today. They pointed out that the
Germans have admittedly transferred large
reserve forces to this salient from Verdun.
knowledge OF that fact made the British
success reported yesterday by General
Haig all the moro satisfactory, but 1t like
wise gave notice to military experts here
that the Germans, feeling the menace in
the British encircling movement from
Pozieres westward and eastward Eom Hill
14l, south of Thepval, would attempt its
checking with every resource of men and
guns at their command.
In their new positions at Pozleres, the
British are only trihe over six miles from
Bapaume, the immediate objective of their
drive. At one point at least they have
penetrated the third line of the German
front. II they, can press the intervening
six miles to Bapaume, German retire.

Bapaume the country is fairly fiat, with
none Of the ridges which dot the territory
just south of Thiepval, except one knoll
known as Hill 100. None of the official
statements shed any light on whether this
position. lying northwest OF Pozieres, is
traversed by the two strong trenches which
Haig reported having been stormed and
captured
Feverish activity In throwing up entrench-
ments and consolidating their gains will
be necessary so that the British can sue
cessfully withstand the German counter
attacks, and until this digging in is accom-
plished it is not expected that there will
be another forward drive on large scale.
