Ottawa. March 2S.-British cavalry
has been in action and achieved .
brilliant victory, according to a dis
patch from the Reuter- correspondent
at British headquarters, received here.
The strength OF the great German
offensive in France apparently is fast
diminishing On the seventh day OF
the Titanic battle there were strong In
dications that the enemy was feeling
materially the strain he had under
gone and that his power had been
greatly impaired through hard usage.
While the town Of Albert has been
captured from the British. and west
OF Roye the French have been COM
PEELED to give ground in the face OF
greatly superior numbers. the British
have repulsed heavy attacks, both
north and south of the Somme. and
also driven back across the Ancre
stream Wednesday.
The fighting still continues of san
culinary character on all these sectors.
but everywhere the British and French
are holding the enemy. Especially So
we're has been the fighting west OF Al
bert, where the Germans, in an en-
deavor to debouch westward. were re-
pulsed by Field Marshal Haig's men
with the heaviest casualties.
The British gains between the
Somme and Ancre regions are repre-

OF Morlancourt and Chipilly South Of
the Somme they have advanced to
Proyart, which lies to the south OF
Bray.
1t is estimated that in the great at
tacks delivered in mass formation
more than 800, 1000 OF the nearly mil
tion men the Germans threw into
the fray are dead. wounded or in the
hands of their foes.
About twenty-five miles represents
the greatest point Of penetration made
at any place by the enemy in his ad-
vance, and on the northern and south
ern ends Of the big salient he has left
his TANKS dangerously open to coun-
ter attacks, which, II successful, pos
sibly might result In retreat greater
than the 1916 retrograde movement Of
Won Hindenburg and nullify In its en-
tirety the drive that has been accom-
pliehed.
1t is not improbable that British and
French reserves. and possibly Ameri-
can troops, known to be behind the
battle front, soon will be thrown
against the weakened enemy.
Notwithstanding the strength of the
German drive, nowhere has the Brit

been given, it is true, but so skillfully
