Third and Fourth Armies Continue
to Hammer Way to Mau-
beuge and Mons.
YANKEES HOLD GAINS
Work Their Way Further Into Ger
man Trenches, Compelling Foe
to Abandon BrieuIIes-Dom-
mate Much Ground.

London, Oct. 25.-Field Marshal Sir
Douglas Haig's Third and Fourth
Armies having smashed through the
outer d~efenses of the st~rategetically
important German line south of Valen-
ciennes, continue successfully to ham,
mer their way toward Maubeuge and
Mons.
The attack started from the new
front gained in advances of between
three and four miles On a front of 10
miles, in which more than 5000 pris-
oners and many guns are reported to
have been taken. The enemy is resist
ing stubbornly, but the British are
forging ahead, capturing villages and
other important points. .
vaIenciennes Put in Pocket.
West of Maubeuge the British have
taken the village of Beaudignies, Ia
miles southwest of LeQuesnoy, the
most important stronghold defending
Maubeuge on the west. In the same
region they have crossed the neutral
barrier of the Ecaillon river and rap
idly are placing V~alenciennes in a
pocket.
Apparently the British are not desir-
Gus of taking Valenciennes by fighting
the Germans in the streets of the town
but plan to outflank it. The town now
is partly surrounded and the menace to
it has been increased by the advance
on the south and the capture of the
entire Raismes forest to the north.
To Force Big Retreat.
The British thrust undoubtedly has
shaken the German defenses south of
Valenciennes, which are so important
to the security of the German line
northward to the Dutch border and
south and east to the Mouse. Unless
the enemy can hold the British at
tacks it would seem they would have
to continue their retreat in Belgium
and also give up ground south and
east Of the Disc.
Yanks Maintain Gains.
On the front west of the Meuse the
Americans maintain the important
gains made and are in a position to
bring about a German retirement on
the center and left of the line. These
gains were mostly on the extreme
right and outfiank the enemy front
westward toward the Argonne.
East of the Argonne, American
forces have worked their way further
into the enemy's trenches and have
compelled the Germans to abandon
Brieulles on the west bank of the
Mouse and just south of Dun. They
are also fighting to the north of Banth-
eville and hold a strong series OF
heights which appear to dominate
much of the ground in the center of
The line.
Near Grandprs the Germans, evi.
IDENTIFY realizing that further progress
by the Americans is dangerous, have
been communicating furiously. They
have gained no ground and have lost
heavily in killed and wounded.

Of the recent order forbidding railroad
employees or officers from holding of.

Adoo, SO as to permit the men to hold

FOE SHOWS HIS GOOD FAITH
Turns Guns On Civilians In Belgian
Villages.

With the Allied Armies in France
and Belgium, Oct. 25.-Fire from the
German artillery has been generally
weak, being heavy only on villages and
towns. Many civilians are still In
tLAse places. Heavy shells dropped
with regularity for several hours into
Denain, which is full of civilians. With
out doubt, many were killed and
wounded and the same condition is
probably true In other towns. Valen-
ciennes still contains many civilians.
