According to General Sir Douglas

factory progress has been made at all
points and a considerable number Of
prisoners taken from the Germans

hook, Frzenbcrg, Saint Julian, Pilkin.
HODGE, Westhoek and Hollebeke, and
more than $500 prisoners.
Tho attack was made on the new
front gained after the capture Of the
Messines ridge, which was prclimi.
nary to this latest move.
Artillery preparations for the attack
which lasted three weeks, were as VIC.
lent and extensive as ever have been
made In the war.
The fighting in the air also has been
on an unprecedented scale.
The guns which had been at work
along the whole British front with only
few short lulls, thus keeping the Ger.
mans Ignorant of the exact spot o:
the moment of the coming attack, were
redoubled Sunday, since which time
the roar, which on some occasions
could be heard in London (20 miles
away. has been incessant.

Holland said that never before had
such violent bombardment been
heard as that during the past twenty
four hours. The sound came apparent.

Ing satisfactory progress at all points.
Considerable numbers of prisoners al.
ready have been captured"
Three lines Of German trenches In
Flanders have been captured by the
British forces. Most OF tho points
stormed were between Boesinghe and
Warn eton distance Of about thirteen
miles,.
Later 1t was reported that the Ger.
mans were counter attacking ut the
point OF junction of the French and
British forces.
The French. who attacked on the
difficult territory between Dixmude
and point near Boesinghe. forced
their way across the marsh and cap.
tured the first two German lines.
with a few exceptions, the entente
allies accomplished all they had plan.
ned for the first day OF this battle in
Flanders. The casualties of the French
and British were surprisingly light.
Six Bavarfan divisions (about 10000
mem, were withdrawn and replaced
as they were demoralized by the in.

charged through their own barrage fire
to prevent the escape of fleeing Ger.
