FRENCH BATTER
H|NDENBURC IN
FIERCE ATTACKS
Germans Put Nearly a Quarter Of
a Million of Fresh Troops
Into Action
ENGLISH WAIT TO
STRIKE OTHER FLANK
Vast Preparations Made to Re.
duce st. Quentin and Other
Points of Importance

Germany has thrown nearly a quar-.
ter of million fresh troops into the
fray on the sixty mile sector OF the
western front, between lSolssons and
Auberive and still is unable to check
the French advance.
Both north of the Aisne and in the
Champagne, General Nivelle's forces
are pressing forward. The last strong
hold on the Aisne of the Germans
was taken with the capture Of Vailly
bridgehead yesterday, and their wav-
ering line continued to be pushed
rapidly northward.
From Cheavomme on the Aisne, the
French have driven more than three
miles north of the river, despite des-
perate resistance by Won Hinden-
burg's reinforced armies.
Successes. Striking.
In the Champagne the successes Of
the French are equally striking. They
have driven a great wedge more than
three miles deep into the German
lines between Rheims and Auberive
and last nights attack netted Gen.
eral Nivelle's men several important
heights in the Moranvillieres region.
Batteries Captured,
Two more German batteries were
captured in the MOanvillieres fight
ing Previously the taking Of Is Ger
man guns in the new French often.
sive had been reported, so that the
number Of cannon wrested from the
Germans must now be nearing the
100 mark.

cial communication is notable conf
dence The complete repulse. of ev-
cry German attempt alta lhaction is
unequivocally claimed Sand45the sue
cesses in the Champagne are men,
toned as having been achieved OH "a
great scale"
British Quiescent.
while the French are thus driving
forward, the British are Quiescent,
so far as the official accounts show,
waiting their turn to strike the other
flank of the Won Hindenburg line.
That notable activities are in prog
ress behind the British front in prep
aratiOn for the renewal OF the at
tacks on Lens and St. Quentin and
other threatened points in the line,
however, is certain.
The French have 50 far taken more
than $1,000 prisoners in their often.
sive. At last account, the British had
taken in excess of $4,000, so that the
combined offensive of the two armies
thus far has resulted in the capture
of more than $1,000 men or the great.
er part of two German divisions.
