July 3l.-(By The Associated Press.)
Late today, it was reported that the
Germans were counter attacking at the
point of contact of the French and
British forces.
The French who attacked on the diff
ficult territory between Dixmude and
a point near Boesinghe forced their
way across the marsh and captured
the first two German lines.
With a few exceptions. the Entente
Allies accomplished all they had plan
ned for the day Of this battle in
Flanders.
The casualties of the French and
Pritish were surprisingly light.
Six Bavarian divisions were with
drawn and replaced, as they were de-
moralized by the inferno of fire. The
British charged through their own

New Bedford, Mass. July 31.-The
whaling brig Viola returned to port to-
day with a $4,000 catch during a 10
months voyage. The Viola had 1900

The Niola's voyage was cut short by
the appearance of a German raider /
The whaler was off the mouth of the
River Platte last February when the
German appeared and came close to
the American ship a number Of times.
Later the captain of a British cruiser
boarded the Viola and warned the cap

the charge and the British gunners
had dropped a protecting barrage on
the German front trench ahead Of the
British troops, it was. seen that the
Germans had taken to their heels and
were fleeing.
The British seeing their prey escap-

through their own harrage, fortunate
