With the British Army in France.
Aug. 27.-While the Germans were
busily engaged in defending them
selves against the attacks of the Brit
ish and French armies from the An
Gre river to the region of Scissors,
Field Marshal Haig early Monday
morning struck another surprise blow
over q new front north Of the old bat
lie gone. The new offensive was
launched from the east of Arras on
the Scarpe river and southwark to the
Cojeul. All along the front the Brit
ish pressed forward, at some places to
depth Of more than two miles, and
captured a half dozen or more vii
Lagos, among them Monchy-le-Preux.
0usmappe and Wancourt.
Across the Cojeul the new British
attacks ON the old battle front brought
them to the villages Of Mory and st.
Lsger, and farther south the small
town Of Fevreuil. one and half miles
northeast Of Bapaume. from which
the British pressed ON eastward
about . mile.
Farther south the British are re-
ported unofficially to have reached
the western outskirts Of Thilloy In
the nipper movement they are carry-
ing out against Bapaume. With Haig's
men now standing we'll within gun
range Of the town. 1t seems likely
that the Germans will be forced to
svacuate Bapaume in short order.
Additional gains also have been
made by the British east Of Albert
and on both sides Of the Somme river.
In fact, Notwithstanding the efforts OF
the Germans through the use Of large
reinforcements to hold them in check.
the British and French all along the
hns from Albert to scissors have ma
terially bettered their positions and
carried further forward their plan Of
making the Picardy battle ground un-
tsnable for the enemy.
Fresnoy-les-Roye to the north and
q. Mard to the south Of Roye, both
have been captured by the French. de-

north, apparently IL In danger Of b.
ing pinched out Of the line in an en-
veloping movement. More than 900
prisoners were taken by the French
In the operation.
The operations Of the British on the
northern part of the front from the
east of Arras to the region of Bulle-
court have brought them upon or very
near to the old Hindenburg line.
There is still considerable activity
on the eastern part of the battle front
IN the vosges mountain regions.
There has been an increase in the
activity in the Albanian theater. Here
the Austrians twice attacked the
Franco-Italian troops, but were re-
pulsed. Later the French slightly
withdrew their line in order to main
tain liaison with the Italians.
The British momentum apparently
Increased in spite Of the strong efforts
Of the Germans to stay the oncoming
rush Of tanks, cavalry and infantry.
More than 1900 German prisoners al
ready have been counted and the en-
emy losses in prisoners are said to be
IN excess of the British casualties.
Unofficially the number Of prisoners
Is placed at 10000.
