ALLIES DO NOT DARE
DISCLOSE HOW FAR
THEY HAVE ADVANCED
CBy Associated Press.)

With the British Army in France,
Aug. 10.--Because the Allies gained
all their detectives, it is possible the
enemy does not know where he was
beaten by the British and French.
It is therefore, inadvisable to disclose
exactly where the Allies are oDerat-
ing. It may be said, however, that
the British infantry and tanks
reached the points they Intended to
attain and this morning they are
holding consolidated lines along the
front. E
The Allied forces captured many
towns, a large quantity Of material
and a complete German divisional
headquarters staff. These headquar-
ters were captured at Lillons The
number of prisoners this morning is
close to $4,000.
North Of the somme the Allies aft
or taking Chipilly spur, nave gone
ong driving the enemy before them.
Numerous tanks and ''whippets' as
sisted the advancing infantry
Further south, the French ad-
vanced rapidly and increased their
number of prisoners as they pushed
their line forward. Last night Brit
ish airplanes dropped large quanti-
ties of bombs in areas behind the
line. The Germans are now well
back toward the Somme, south Of
Peronne. With this stream at their
back and the Allied guns and air
planes pouring shells into the cross
ings over the Somme, the position Of
the enemy is serious.
Paris, Aug. 10 (HavasJ Several
newspapers hint this morning that
the official statements issued by the
war office are purposely reticent aIid.
that interesting news might be made
public if the war office chose TO do
SO. They say. that the number Of
prisoners is actually far above the
figure authoritatfvely announced.
French and British light troops,
patrols and armored cars are operat-
ing Tar beyond the points mentioned
ia the official statements. The in
fantry Is following these forces un-
tiringly ard in sufficient masses to
crush all attempts made by the.

Paris, Aug. i0.ArAnglo- French
troops have gained the ascendancy
according to the latest reports from
the fighting front in Picardy. The
line as marked out in the official
statement is that which lis held SOL
idly by infantry, cavalry skirmishers
being well in advance OF Ii and pre-
pairing the way for further prog
ress.
The Germans are relying on ma
chine gums TO stem the allied tide,
not wishing to risk their artillery
which is bound to be captured un-
der even the slightest mischance.
The enemy is defending himself
with desperate courage wherever she
position affords means and the ofEi-
GERS are shooting down any soldier
q no Sshows symptoms Of quitting.
The enemy is fighting against time
time for the German command to
readjust itself and to limit the con-
sequences OF the blow devised by
Marshal Foch.
At this stage OF the battle. military
observers here say, the problem fac
ing the rival commanders is easily
defined. Marshal Foch struck skill

General Won Der Marwitz and Won
Hutier under one chief. This oper-
alton has ten1poraTilY thrown the
Germans off their balance and 1t is
their object now to regain 1t. The
task OF the allies Is to throw the
Germans still further off their ball
