Today's War
Summary

Battling their way forward in the
center Of the Montdidier-Noyon line,
the Germans are making slight gains.
The fighting is the most furious Of
the year. German advances have been
made at heavy cost.
Along the valley of the Matz the
Germans are making their main pro-
gress. The apex of the new salient
now extends from Merry to Elincourt,
culinary fighting, the Germans cap
tured Merry, Belloy. st. Maure and
reached Elincourt and Marquesglise.
The deepest penetration has been to
Marquesglise, two miles south Of
Russons Sur -Matz, depth of about
fve miles.
On the western wing the French
line holds steadfast and heavy. and
continuous attacks have made no I'M ;
preston upon it. On the east the
Germans have advanced from several
gain being on the right center in
Thiescourt wood. from which they are
reported to have debouched. :.
| Artillery is being used in great
numbers by both armies. The French
gunners have reaped a heavy harvest
from the advancing enemy columns.
Villages changed hands repeatedly
and the French war Office says the
French troops "fulftlled with tenacity
their mission of resistance"
Berlin claims the capture Sunday
! Of 5000 prisoners and some guns.
The French resistance is reported to
be stubborn. Monday nights brief
statement says ground { has been
gained southwest of Noyon. :.

progress more slowly.

tor northwest Of Chateau-Thierry,
which protects that town and Villers-
Cotterets. continue their attacks,
Monday the marines advanced into
Belleau, wood a distance of two
thirds Of mile on front Of 600
yards. The northern edge of the
wood is all that now remains to the
Germans.
On the British front there has been
little Of interest. On the American
sector northwest Of Toul the artillery
fire has increased but no infantry
activity has developed. 6
- Austro- Hungarian troops on the
mountain front in northern Italy have
carried out surprise attacks at several
points, only to be repulsed by the al.
He'd troops. The artillery fire is most
pronounced on the mountain front
and along the lower Piave.
