Twelve Hours of War. :

Enemy Troops Come on in waves,
Filling Up the Huge Gaps In Their
Lines as Made-Haig Gains
il: Flanders.

London.-Hurling themselves again 81
the British line ten times at Mas
nieres, three and half miles south
of Cambria, the Germans forced the
British to withdraw from the village
because their position was dominated
by the high ground held by the Ger
mans.
The withdrawal was made, how
ever, without molestation after the
German attacks had been repulsed
with losses in killed estimated to
have been more than in any other II
hours fighting at any one place in
the war. The fighting extended down
to La Vacquerie, southwest Of Mas
nieres, where, one correspondent says,
Is attacks were made.
Paris.-The Havas correspondent
at the British front, describing the
formidable German attacks before
Cambria, in which II or IL ~lemy
divisions tried to encircle the Brit
ish, says:
"The courageous conduct of num-
Der of American soldiers attracted
much attention. They were pioneers
and specialists engaged in construc-
ton and working on field railroads.
"When the enemy appeared Friday
morning they exchanged their sheV-
els for rifles and cartridges and
fought alongside the Tommies.
Several fell gloriously, with arms
in their hands, facing the foe.
"No man who saw them at work
but praises glowingly the GOODNESS,
discipline and courage of these i'm
provised fighters"

Large numbers of American army en-
gineers working On the British rail-
ways in the region of Gouzeaucourt
Con the southwest flank of the new

German turning movement. -
They escaped by lying in shell
holes and prone on the ground while
the British fired over them.
There they remained until the Brit
ish were near enough to enable the
Americans to join the British ranks,
! when they fought valiantly and play
ed an important part in replying to
the enemy.
