Steady progress was maintained to-
day by the British first, third and
fourth armies. The main body Of the
enemy is apparently continuing it's
retirement toward Mons, Maubeuge
and Avesnes, while the comparatively
weak forces which are assigned to
the task of fighting a real guard &C
ton were interposing such resistance
as they could in an endeavor to delay
the onward sweep of the Allies.
This morning the Germans were
destroying the railways in the vicinity

withdrawn all the materials that time
would allow and had no intention Of
accepting battles along the present
line. .

penetrated to an extreme depth of
eleven miles in two days. At dawn
today they renewed their attack and
