LONDON, March 25.-The eist
of Field Marshal Haig's official
statement is that the German drive
has been stopped temporarily. The
enemy again is concentrating north
of Bapaume which evidently is
one of Germany's immediate obiec-
tives. Heavy attacks north of this
city Sunday evening resulted in the
emmy obtaining a small foothold in
tn new British positions but they
were later elected.
South of Peronne German troops
forced a crossing of the Somme.
The British Immediately drove
them back to the east bank.
Peronne is more than twelve miles
west of the front previous to this
drive. This probably marked the
greatest German advance.

The Germans, at heaviest cost,
have progressed on the old battle

line everywhere is intact.
Haig's troops have withdrawn in
most perfect order.
All night long the fighting has
been most severe, especially along

masses were hurled forward but
the British machine guns raked
them in an unending rattle.
