 LONDON, Dec. 6.--The Reuter- cor respondent at British headquarters in
 France sends the fellowing:
 General Byne has realized Napo- Icons definition of generals great est quality-'To know when to re. treat and do it.
 we have fallen back deliberately and successfully upon welI-chosen line which rules out the salient made by Bourbon wood, and should enable us to maintain our hold upon the cap- tured length of the Hindenburg line i against any pressure"
 The carefully laid plans of General Byng to withdraw his troops at vari- ous points on the Cambrai salient to more tenable positions have been car ried out in perfect order, and appar- ently without the Germans even hay , ing knowledge of the movement. i The falling back was made neces- sary by wedges driven into the salient last week by the Germans, which on several sectors threatened disaster to the British if they continue to hold their positions. From an arc extend ing before Cambrai a distance of about IS miles the new British front has been lessened to a length of about 10 miles. with the base resting in the region of Moeuvres and in the south near Gonneiieu.
 Germany Claims Gains
 As a result of the backward move ment the Germans claim the re- occupation of Graincourt Anneux, Novelties and the woods and heights north of Marcoing, and that their uu- contested gain has been to a depth of about two and half miles over a front of six and quarter miles. The Berlin war office asserts that since the German offensive in the Cambrai region began British prisoners in ex- cess of 5000 and IA guns have been taken.
 On the Italian front. the Austro- Germans are making frantic attempts to break through and debouch upon the plain of Venetia In the Asiago plateau battles of almost uDprecedent- ed violence are taking place, the Teu tonic allies using q great array of guns and men in their efforts to over come the Italian resistance. On the Meletta sector the enemy made some slight advances, but only through the sacrifice of large numbers of men. the Italians resisting determinedly. An enemy attempt to carry the Italian line of defense in the upper Brenta valley met with repulse and heavy casualties.
 Berlin Takes 11,OoO Italians
 The Berlin war office. announcing the taking of the Meletta positions, says that in the new offensive of the Teutonic allies 11.000 Italians have been made prisoner, and that moro than 60 Of their guns have been cap tured.
 From Berlin comes the announce ment that an armistice of 10 dys, to begin Friday at noon. has been ad-i ranged for the entire Russian front. ! In verification of previous reports that the Rumanians were not seeking | an armistice with the enemy is a Rumanian official communication say ing that attempts were made by the enemy 70 fraterniZe with the Ru- manian troops were put down with shot and she'll Denial also is made that the new Ukrainian government had opened negotiations for a sep arate peace with the central powers.
