BRITISH CLOSE IN ON
TWO STRONGHOLDS
Fight Their Way Forward on
Outskirts of st. Quentin
and Lens.

WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES
AFIELD, April 16.-British troops
fought their way forward in the out
skirts of st. Quentin and Lens today.
Just north of st. Quentin, they took
the village of Troissauvages.
Around three sides of Lens they
were fiercely fighting against German
defenders and slowly encircling the
coal city.
The Germans fought desperately
while in the town itself they strove
frantically to remove guns and sup
plies.
Again early today the Germans
threw two more strong attacks at
British positions at Monchy lie Preux.
Both failed. The British artillery, con-
centrated in a devastating fire,
slaughtered the massed attacking
forces of Teutons.
Another German attack, likewise in
great force, was made on both sides
of the Bapaume-Cambrai road against
Hermies, Noreuil, and Lagnicourt.
The British held firm at Hermies
and Noreuil, but the enemy obtained
a foothold on a spur 200 yards to the
north of Penebaling and Lagnicourt.
Immediately, however, the British
counter-attacked and swept the
enemy out.
The Germans lost heavily in this
attack and the subsequent British
counter attack.
