BRITISH ADVANCE IN INCHES BY
USE OF BAYONET.

OOE VT DAT ONE J.
London, April 27.-From north of
Arras down to the Champagne today
Franco-British offensive and German
defense had developed into titanic
push Of waT"-nOt tug of war.
Only major infantry operations on
British front were of huge bodies of
men on both sides gripped in hand
to hand conflict Most modern of all
weapons, the perfected artillery
pieces still gave barrages of fire, but
actual movement of British forces
forward was almost always by use of
most ancient Of all fighting weapons
the steel blade.
In contrast to his previous stra-
tegical methods of concentrating the
fury of his attack on particular spots
in German line, Field Marshal Haig
was adopting plan of keeping whole
front pushing in great concerted
movement.
Meanwhile HindenbUrg was rush
ing great bodies of reserve troops and
pouring these into lines to interpose
human barriers to British advance.
The enemy's losses have been CO.
IossaI, due mainly to logged manner
in which Germans are held in closed
rank formations, offering unmissable
targets for British guns.
It is British pressure toward Douai
which Germans apparently fear
most, according to dispatches from
the front It was east of Gavreue
that the battle reached its greatest
fury today.
Cloudy weather of past "A hours

With complete supremacy of air es-
tabHshed, they had hoped to add to
their record of at least 100 German
machines brought down in the big
