| The violent German offensive on
yerdun has been resumed, the fight
in taking on an extremely desperate
character north of the French strong
hold. To the west of Fort Douau-
mont the Germans succeeded in
| reaching the village of Douaumont,
which they hold, though the French
report that they still retain the crest
Of the hill on the slope OF which the
village lies, and the fight for the
position continues fercely.
The Germans assert that they have

Douaumont village, but have advanc-
cd their lines west and south OF the
village and of Fort Douaumont. just
to the east, recently captured. ana

Paris declares the attacks were brok-
en- up by the French curtain OF ilfe
and the efficiency of the French ma
chine guns, the Germans being conf
pelled to retire, leaving many dead
on the battlefield.
From the region of Malancourt,
west of the Meuse, to the Woevre re-
pion. east of Yerdun, the lombard

Germans endeavoring to force their
way closer to the fortress of Fer-
dun, ,and the French tenaciously strlv-
ing to hold them back. Several as

been vigorously shelled by the French
especially in the vicinity Of Beau

The Germans admit that in the re-
gion of Ypres the British recaptured
the positions. the Germans took from
them February IA. but say that the
British were Immediately driven out
