TWO SEPARATE ATTACKS BY
BRITISH ON YPRES FRONT.

BRITISH FRONT IN BELGlU NJ,
Oct. Is OBy the Associated Press. .-
Field Marshal Haig's forces this
morning made two separate attacks
on the German positions north and
east of Ypres. The first was from a
point near Saint Janshock westward
through the southern fringe OF the
Houthulst Ridge to the region Of
Nicuwemolon. The other assault was
on both sides of the Yprcs- -Mcnin
highway along the Gheluvelt Ridge
In the direction Of the town Of that
name.
The British troops, as well as the
French, who also attacked on the left,
made excellent headway, pushing for

A group Of enemy guns on the high
ground southeast OF Gheluvclt, con-
stituting one OF the main dcfcnses,
was comparatively quiet This prob
ably was due TO the British heavy
bombardment last night Many ex-
plosions were seen In the region Of
these batteries during the night.
Again one Of the greatest barrages
ever seen was employed by the at
tackers. The preliminary lombard
ment vas made more effective by the
recent moving forward OF the guns
over the marshy ground. A brisk
wind had dried the ground wonder
fully.
The Germans had been expecting
an attack and had made preparations
for an assault on Monday. British
military observers say the Gormang
had long feared an attack in thi,
dominating region.
