British Tanks Smash Paths
Through Wirer Making Way
for Infantry AttaCkS-No Ar

, NEW YORK, Nov. 21.--Field Marshal

miles and breaking the famous linden
burg line to maximum depth of near
ly five miles. His troops are still fight
Ing their way forward in the most spec
tacular offensive of the war on the
western front since the trench lines
were established.
The blow was struck without warn
ing, no artillery preparation preceding
1t. The British tanks in great numbers
smashed their way through the formid-
able German wire entanglements, plow-
ing road for the infantry, which
swarmed irresistibly forward.
Village after village fell into British
hands as Haig's troops pressed on until,
at Marcoing and at Anneux, on the Ba-
paume-Cambrai road, they were only
three and three-quarter miles from Cam
brai, the important German base and
important railway junction, which APP
parently is the British objective.
Several thousand prisoners have been
taken by the British as we'll as largo
quantities of war material. The attack
was carried out in unfavorable atmo-
spheric condi ions and the weather since
has grown stormy.
Berlin admits important advances by
the British, conceding the capture of

Haig's thrust. but says the attackers
were checked after ground had been
gained.

FIELD MARSHAL
HAIG'S OFFICIAL
COMMUNICATION

LONDON. Nov. 21.-Fjeld Marsha
daig's official statement on Geners
3yng's great victory in France follow
n full:
Yesterday morning the third
army. under command of General
The Honorable Sir Julian Byng, de-
livered a number of attacks between
st. Quentin and the river Scarpe.
These attacks were carried out with
out previous artillery preparations.
and in each case the enemy was
completely surprised.
Our troops have broken into the
tween four and five miles on a wide
front. and have captured several
thousand prisoners with a number
of guns. Our operations are contin-
uing.
At the hour of assault on the pri1-
cipal front of attack a large num-
Der of tanks moved forward in ad-
vance of the infantry and broke
through successive belts of German
wire which were of great depth and
strength.
Following through the gaps made
by the tanks English, Scotch and
Irish regiments swept over the enc
my's outposts and stormed the first
defensive system of the Hindenburg
line on the whole front
Our infantry and tanks then swept
on i'm accordance with the program
and captured the German second
system of defense, more than mile
beyond This latter is known as the
Hindenburg support line.
In the course of this advance
east county troops took the hamlet
of Benavis and Lateau wood after
stir fighting.
English rifle regiments and light
infantry captured La Vacquerie and
the formidable defenses on the spur
known as welsh ridge. Other Eng
lish county troops stormed the viii
lage of Ribecourt and fought their
way through Goblet wood,
Highland territorial battalions
crossed the Grand ravine and enter
ed Flesquieres, where fierce fight
ing took place. The West Riding
territorials captured Havrincourt
and the German trench systems
north of the village, while the Ul-
ster battalions, covering the latter's
left flank, moved northwards up the
west bank of the Canaf Du Nord.
Later in the morning our advance
was continued, and rapid progress
was made at all points. English,
Scottish. Irish and Welsh battal-
ions secured the crossing, on the
canal at Nasnieres and captured
Marcoing and Neuf wood.
The West Riding troops, who had
taken Havrincourt, made remarkable
progress east OF the Canal Du Nord,
storming the villages of Graincourt
and AnneuX, and, with the Ulster
troops operating to the west Of the
canal, carried the whole German
line northward to the Bapaume-
Cambria road.
West Lancashire territorials broke
into the enemy's positions west of
Epehy, and Irish troops have cap
tured important sections Of the
Hindenburg line between Bullecourt-
and Fontaine Les Croisilles.
The number of prisoners, guns
and material captured cannot yet
be estimated. The spell of fine,
dull weather which favored our
preparations for our attacks broke
early yesterday. a heavy rain fell
during the night, and the weather is
now stormy"

Gang Threatened Many of Their Victims With Prosecution of

Suoway by 2,OO6 His plurality in 1914 was less than 1000 and he was defeated in 1912. The district carried by Presi- dent Wilson in the Presidential contest by few hundred It is believed by the Democrats that with Mir SuIoway out Of the and the issues made up as they are at the present time and the recog. nized need Of administration Congressmen there is more than a fighting chance to win the district ard they propose to make the most of the chance. If successful this would give the Democrats PIG mem bers not counting Representative Randall the Caiitor mia Prohibitonst who has signitied his intention of working with the party. the undsclosed other third party Congressman who also is counted to work with them It would give the Democrats assured majority of one in Congress without Representative Martin. the Progressive from Louisiana who is now said to hold the balance of power.
