ON LONG FRONT
General Retreat of Foe Forces
Over Line IFS Miles in Length
Is in Progress.
YANkS TAKE ; TOWNS
British Gain Everywhere, Enemy In.
fantry Making RIO Resistance
French Wedge Enters st. Co.
balm Stronghold.

London, Oct. 12.-From Douai to
Verdun, 175 miles, the tide of German
invasion is ebbing. A general retreat
Of the Teutonic forces over this far
flung line is in progress.
East of Cambria the enemy has
abandoned lie Cateau, which has been
occupied by the British and Ameri-
cans. Further south the French haye
pushed their advance further eastward
from St. Quentin.
Just north of La Fere, where the
enemy has held his positions since
early in September, the French have
taken the village Of Servais, which
marks the point where the wedge is
entering the st. Gobain stronghold in
which the Germans have almost i'm
pregnable positions.
Americans Smash Way.
Pushing eastward along the Chemin
des Danes, the French have forced
the enemy across the Oise-Aisne canal
and just to the southeast they crossed
the Aisne a little to the eastward of
Oeuilly. In the Champagne sector the
forces of General Gouraud have swept
ahead and crossed the Aisne near
Termes, southwest of Grand Pre-,
which stands on the north bank of
the Aire river as it winds through the
Argonne forest.
East of the Argonne forest Ameri-
car divisions have smashed their way
ahead. taking Sommerance, Chevieres
and Marck. Further east they have
rectifed their line On each side of the
Mouse.
Little Resistance.
The significant feature of this fight.
ing is that in the Champagne, Argonne
and Cambrai-St. Quentin sectors there
has been but little resistance to the
advance of the Allied armies. East OF
Cambria the Germans seem to be in
full flight. This, too, is the case fur
Their south, where the French are
marching virtually unimpeded in the
direction of Guise.
The advance of the French near La
Fere and along the Aisne to the south
of Laon seems to be quite significant
This part of the battleline has the

found anywhere along the front. The
ST. Gobain forest is almost invulner
able, while the hills north of the Aisne
further south, lend themselves admir-
ably to defensive operations. East OF
Oeuilly, where new crossings of the
Aisne have been made, further ground
has been gained north of Berry al

Arterial Road Threatened.
In the Champagne and Argonne sec
tors the Kriemhilde line, built by the
Germans by long labor to be the ulti
mate defense of the region, appears Il
be broken and the Americans ant
French are storming through it OF
each side of the Argonne forest.
In the event hat the Germans ar,
trying to reach one of their lines neal
the Belgian frontier, this sector ma,
be the one where the strongest fight
ing may be developed. An advance o
10 or 10 miles along the Mouse would
bring the Americans and French nea'

Ii this road can be cut or even brough
under artillery fire, the enemy nigh

between the master and the serf.
The principles on which a general
peace will be made between the war
