London. Aug. S.-Field Marshal Haig's statement concerning the new offensive by the British and French troops shows that the enemy line has been driven in about seven miles and a half in the center at Plessier, which lies southeast of Moreuii. 1t shows that goodly gains also have been made eastward over the front of 15 miles lying between Plessier and Morlancourt.
 The statement says that no esti- mate can be made concerning the prisoners, guns and material cap tured, but that several thousand pris- oners and many guns have been talk en.
 The attack must have taken the Germans by surprise, as the weather had not been such as would generally be chosen for the commencement of new operations. On Monday there was a continuous downpour of rain along the Amiens front, but advices state that the British troops were congrat- ulaiing themselves that the ground was not as bad as they had expert enced in Flanders, where she'll cra- ters were filled with water and there was no means of draining them.
 On Ihe Amiens front the men had little trenches in the wheat fields These trenches caught only the water that feil into them an dcould De easi. ly baied out
