ARMY CONTINUES
 MARCH
Yesterdays Work Completed Principal Phase of Opera tions Against the German Lateral Communications

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON THE SEDAN FRONT. Nov. g. - The Americans made things interesting for the enemy today by advancing pretty much every wherel along their line. The enemy artillery lire today and yesterday was almost exclusively from large caliberi guns. indicating that he has withdrawn all his lighter pieces and is sbellfS9s from positions a great distance away.
 Five American ambulances drove by mistake into the German lines northeast of Lion.Devant-Dun and were captured. This incident was wit messed by some comrades who organ ized rescne party and returned with the ambulances. four prisoners and three guns.
 This evening the Americans were in complete control of both sides of the Mouse and had in addition, occupied Remoiville wood They also crossed the river at Mouzor, thus making their line on both sides complete from Villers-D -Devant- -Mouson southwark
 One division reached Mouzay in its i forward march, despite machine gun resistance and a particularly heavy fire from mine throwers. There was | violent enemy reaction toward the northern point of the line especially at Villers-DevantM Mouzon.
 The enemy shelled Montigny and ! Saulmory and the Saulmory-S road and the new American positions at Lion and St. Germain intermit- | tently today and there were occa- sional bursts of machine gun fire from | Stenay. The American artillery re- i piled and the German cannonade mod erated.
 ! Fires are burning in Stenay and ' the towns to the northeast. There was considerable enemy activity to- | day in a retiring movement to the i northward and eastwaru. A new Ger man unit has been identified on this ] sector
 The Americans have begun work on a new permanent bridge over the ! Mouse, although they already have been able to move even the heaviest artillery over the temporary bridges already constructed. This artillery
 will meet the stubborn opposition
 which has developed in the hills.
 The Americans are now only eight miles from Carignan on the MeZieres- Metz railroad and about nine and one
 half miles from Sedan, and are able
 to shell both ways.
 Today's work may be said to have completed the principal phase of the American operation since the neck of H.r-
 between the armies and the northwest was narrowed to the strangling point.
