BRITISH SWEEP HUNS BACK
village Retaken After Desperate
Counter Attacks-AuStrians and
English Capture Villers-
BretOnneuX.

London, April 25-Australian and
English troops have recaptured Viii
lers-BretonneuX and taken more than
600 prisoners in that region, Field
Marshal Haig reports from headquar
ters tonight.
Further to the north on line
from Bailleul to Wytschaete there
has been very heavy fighting and the
Allied troops were obliged to with
draw from their positions.
The statement says
1.-THE French and British positions
from north of Boilleul to east of Wyt-
chaete have been heavily attacked all
day. There was fighting of great Sc
verify on the whole of the front, par
ticularly in the neighborhood of Dra-
noutre, KENNEL and Vierstraat.
"In the course of repeated attacks
and counter attacks, the Allied troops
have been compelled to withdraw
from the positions they held this
morning and the fighting continues.
South of the Somme, several coun-
ter attacks launched by Australian
and English troops last night against
the positions gained by the enemy
yesterday in and around Villers-B Bre-
tonneux carried our line onward to
within a short distance of our former
front and resulted in the capture of
more than 600 prisoners. The village
now is in our hands"
The great double German drive, in
the Somme and Armentieres sectors
which began Wednesday morning, has
developed into terrific struggle. The
tide of battle has surged to and fro
during the last two days, with the de-
cision still in the balance. The Brit
ish, having been forced back out of
ers-Bretonneux, launched coun-
ter attack and swept the Germans
back, almost to the lines which were
held before the present fighting be-
gan.
The French have been driven back
out of Hangard-En- -Santerre, but are
holding their positions closely, while
on the line southwest of Ypres. the
British have been compelled to with
draw slightly before furious attacks
along the Meteren- -Bailleul-Wytsch-
aete line.
