MUD HALTED
GERMAN DRIVE

For the first time slice he start
ed his series of attacks against the
German positions in Flanders Field
Marshal Haig has had to cease an
operation before all the objeetives
were attained. 1t was not the
German guns, however, that
stopped the British. 1t was a
more than usually heavy rainfall
which started during the battle
and turned the already swampy
region over which the men We're
supposed to pass into veritable
quagmire from which they could
not untrack themselves for for
ward move,
The drive, as has been custom
ary in Haig's strategy, was start
ed in the early hours of Friday
morning and extended from near
the Houtholst wood to below the
Ypres-Menin road At several
points the British troops succeed
ed in gaining ground over fronts
ranging up to 1000 yards, but here
the rain intervened and the fight
ing ceased for the day. During the
forward movement over the six
mile front the British captured in
the aggregate about 600 prisoners.
The struggle was particularly
bitter to the north of Poelcappele
and around Passchendaele. In the
latter region the Germans appar-
emily have massed their strongest
array of troops, hopeful of being
able to stay further press for
ward by the British toward the
Ostend-Lillc railroad.
