 French and American troops, con tinuing their attacks in the region of Brussiares, on the Marne front, gained more ground and took prison CTS.
 On the French right wing along the front of the new attack bitter more than 500 prisoners in various engagements. Prisoners report unani- mously that the losses of the Ger mans so far in the battle which be- gan yesterday morning have been ex- tremely heavy.
 The statement follows:
 The German push was continued yesterday evening and last night with the same ferocity.
 "On the French left wing violent attacks were renewed on several oG- casions, but they were broken by the French fire and by counter at tacks by our troops. The town of Courcelles was captured and recap tured and finally remained in our hs nds.
 "On the right the French forces maintained their positions to tha southeast of Vile. Here there was bitter fighting. The French took more than 500 prisoners in the course of these various ngagements.

 London. June 10.---The new Gers man attack is directed immediately against Compiegne as part of the campaign against Paris according to virtually unanimous newspaper com ment here.
 In the opinion of some commenta- tors in the morning newspapers the section attacked is a vital one be- cause of the various detached heights which lie across the head of the val ley of the Disc and it's great railroad and road to Paris. Any important gain in this direction would, it i.' re- marked, bring the enemy out into the level country toward St. Just and Clermont and enable him to avoid frontal attack on the forests of Com piegne and Villers Cotterets, which are of great value to the Allies for defensive purposes. Such gain, it is held, would probably compel a re- adjustment of the Allied front be-. tween the Disc and the Marne. Another object of the new move is l assumed to be an attempt to outfank the French lines in the Soissons sec tor.
 London, June 10.---German troops last night attacked a British post in Aveluy wood, to the north of Albert, the war office announced today. The enemy was repulsed. The statement reads:

 "A hostile attack during the even- in on one of our posts in Aveluy wood was repulsed.
