SIXTH BATTLE RAGING
Armies Are Striking Vital Blows
at Foe from Verdun to
the Sea.

London, Oct. 2.-Cambrai was in
flames Tuesday as the British
were breaking great holes in the
Hindenburg line from Cambria to
st. Quentin. The Germans set
fire to Cambria apparently in the
hope of destroying the great guam
tity of supplies there before the
British could surround the town,
which already is Invested on three
sides.
London, Oct. 2.-The Belgians have
captured Roulers, the important Ger
man rail base in Flanders, the British
streets Of Cambria, the French and
Americans and other British armies
are striking vital blows on various
other fronts, and the whole German
line in France, from Verdun to the
sea, a distance of $50 miles, is rap
idly crumbling in the greatest battle
of the ages.
Striking east in their offensive be-
tween Ypres and Dixmude, the armies
Of King Albert surrounded and quick
ly forced Roulers to ~capitulate. This
Is a vital blow at the enemy. Roulers
is a railway junction point which was
highly important for the maintenance
Of his submarine bases at Ostend and
zeebrugge as well as his whole sell
gian Flanders line.
Making the sixth battle front,
French launched an attack between
the Vesle and the Aisne rivers, west
Of Rheims. A considerable advance
was attained on a seven and a half
mile front.

gins armies have already reclaimed
more than half of the famous heights
Of the Chemin-des-D Danes for the

these positions, are giving up i'm.

tween the Vesle and the Aisne adds
to the difficulties of the enemy along

and French not only apparently are
going to clear the whole Argonne oil

considerable part Of the German ar
mics who must retreat by way of the
Aire valley.
The French are only seven miles
from Vouziers, the German rail juno
ion through which their lines in the
Argonne and the region northeast oil
Verdun are fed. General Gouraud has
advanced his whole line I'm the Cham
payne, taking several villages.
The Germans continue to throw
their rapidly dwindling reserves into
the battle opposite the Americans anG
French in the Champagne, but the ad
vance of the Yankees and the Poilus
Is unceasing, despite the tremendous
obstacles which the ingenuity of the
enemy has devised. Thus battling on
ward the Americans have passed
through miles of trenches and barbet
wire and have the Kreimhilde line
