They Are Ready to Launch
Into German Territory
From Verdun.
TEUT0NS ARE EXTREMELY
ACTIVE ON THAT FRONT
Crown Princes Efforts, How
ever, Meet With But Only
Small Success.
THE WAR SUMMARY.

Extremely bad weather on the Flan
ders front is limiting the activities of
the belliserents. The allies, however,
have maintained themselves in the ter
ritory they gained in tuesdays great
drive. At only one point has their
hold slipped at all, and that was in a
particularly low sector along the Brit
ish front below Poelcappelle, where
their advance posts we're drawn in a
little.
While the work of consolidation and
prepara tion for the renewal of the Of
fensive is proceeding, German counter
attacks are being held off by the en-
tente guns. Last night the French had
one of these attacks to deal with in
the region east of Draeibank, but
broke it up.

German Anxiety.

The French are very near German
territory northeast of Nerdun and a
forced weakening of the German lines
there might well have a serious effect
upon the whole military situation, well
placed as the French now are for the
initiation of drive from the outly-
ing Nerdun positions.
The German effort to push back the
French here, or possibly to regain the
lost initiative in the region, may pos
sibly be traced to anxiety in this re-
