LONDON, Aug. l.---Wct weather
which has prevailed over western E.u-
rope since Sunday and continues with
out intcrmission prepared the British
public for General Sir Douglas Hugs
report today that the weather had him
dered the British operations in Flanders.
The downpuur of rain has been one
OF the most severe and most persistent
experienced in recent summers and
knowledge of the mArshy condition Of
the ground over which the fighting has
been taking place has led commentators
to warn their readers not to expect too
much.
The achievements OF the Anglo
French forces. however. are considered
Of good omen for the future. the allies
having proved that they arc more than
u match for the Germans and arc able
to take positions which the Teuton5
considered impregnable. by the advance
made yesterday which was all that had
been planned for one day, the entente
ullics are in Better position for the
next stroke.
Besides the counter attacks which
the Germans have been compelled TO
undertake and all of which have been
rrpuIsed. are proving very costly for
the Germans who already arc hard put
To It TO supply the necessary drafts for
the various fronts where they arc fight
ing.
The defeat Of the Germans also is
expected to have good influence on
Russia while the attack when an I'M
provcmcnt in the weather makes 1t pos
siblc to continue 1t will tend 70 out
flank the I.ills district from the north
and threaten the rueny's lines of COM
municution between Germany and the
Belgian coast.
1t is recalled by military observers
that the Summc offensive forced Field
Marshal Won Hindcnuurs TO retreat fof
Il distance Of from II To IS miles on II

offensive il destined IN achieve Il great
or result in the same way.

attacks were repulsed during the night
and the heavy artillery duel continued.
but the movement Of big guns has been
rendered most difficult by the rain.
The German artillery today actively

continued to pour steady stream OF
shrapnel and high explosives into the
