Aubers broke down.
On both sides Of Cambrai the Brit
ish kept up their violent attacks
throughout the day. In the after
noon Canadian division, newly
brought into action, succeeded in ad-
vancing temporarily to the north of
Cambrai and beyond Ramillies. Tho
Goth Wurtemburg Reserve Division
which especially proved it's valor in
the lighting between Arras and Cam
bra under the leadership Of Lieuten-
ant General Won Fritsch, threw the
enemy back to Tilloy.'
South Of Cambria we completely
held our positions against repeated
assaults by the enemy. On both sides
OF 6 Catelet the enemy in the after
noon resumed his attacks between
Vendhlile and Joncourt and also
south of Joncourt and south of the
Sommc, where vigorous engagements
deve' 'oped during the evening. The
enemy attacks were repulscd every
wher,
The French directed attacks
against our lines between the Aisnc
and the Veslc and across the Vcslc
between Breuil and Jonchery. In
spite of their repeated assaults these
failed with one exception, a partial
success which led the enemy to the
heights north Of Brcuil.
In Champagne the enemy restrict
cd himself to partial attacks east Of
Sommcpy and against the new lines
into which we had moved during the
night. North Of Aurc and Marvaux
his attacks were repulsed. Near St.
Marie-a-Py we took prisoners two
French companies.
The Americans attacked with
strong forces east of the Argonnc,
the hardest fighting again taking
place at Apremont and in the Montre-
beau Forest. We everywhere drove
the enemy back, and he suffered
especially heavy losses yesterday
(Monday). On the western bank Of
the Meusc the fighting activity was
limited TO destructive fire by the
artillery. Infantry, pioneers and
artillery took an equal share in the
destruction Of numerous enemy ar
mored cars.
BERLIN OAY) Sept. 30.--Sixteen
divisions were aed by the enemy into
the fight against Cambria and on
both sides Of the town. In their
efforts to break through our front
there strong enemy attacks were re-
pcated eight times north of Cambria.
These attacks broke down before our
lines near Sancourt, and were brol,.
on by successful counter attacks az
Tilloy.
In the suburbs Of Cambrai, at Neu-
Vile and Cantimpre the enemy gained
a footing. We are standing here on
the western outskirts of the town
behind the Scheldt River and re-
pulsing violent enemy attacks which
are being renewed. Attacks by the
enemy on the canal sector north Of
Marcoing collapsed before our lines.
This also was the result along the
Cambrai- -Masnieres Road.
South OF Marcoing the enemy
forced US back behind the canal sec
tor from Masnieres to Creve .oeur.
With equal energy he attacked our
front from Gonnelieu to south Of
Bellenglise. Between Gonnclieu and
Bellicourt We completely drove back
frequently repeated enemy assaults.
Villers- Guislain, which was lost for
Il time, was retaken. Local breaks in
cur positions were cleared of the
enemy by counter attacks. Divisions
fighting heavily on the front near
Gonnelieu and Nillers- s-Guisiain drove
baci. with their reserve battalions in
q determined counter attack the enc
my coming against their flank from
the direction rf MarcoinR.
Between Bellicourt and Bellenglisc
the enemy thrust forward over The
canal. We brought him to stand
still in the evening on the line
formed by the northern border Of
Bellicourt and the western border
Of Joncourt and Lehaucourt. Regi-
ments north Of Gricourt, which had
warded off all attacks, had to with
draw their wing to Lehaucourt in the
evening.
In the great successful conclusion
of yesterdays heavy fighting troops
of every German race took an equal
part. The British bought their local
successes with very heavy and san
culinary losses.
Armies of the Crown Prince and
General vOn Gallwitz: The enemy
forced his way toward our new lines
on the Oise-Aisne canal. We took
prisoners here in successful fore
field fighting.
Between the Suippe and the Aisne
the French continued their bitter at
tacks, as did the Americans against
the eastern border of the Argonnc
forest and further cast toward the
Mouse. The enemy yesterday brough,
several new divisions into the fight.
