BATTLE
ON EACH SIDE
OF LAON CITY
Continued from Page -

Champagne Front, Sept. 26.-(By the
Associated Press .)-General Gou-
raud's men were continuing their ad-
tonight along the front west Of
the Argonne forest. Greater resist
ance was being encountered and fresh
obstacles were found to impede their
progress. Ahead of them is a belt Of
country seven or eight miles deep
over which there is a labyrinth Of
trenches. Many blockhouses have been
built by the Germans there and the
ground seems as difficult of capture as
that wrested from the Germans today.
The Germans by their retirement
have gained a little time in which to
bring up reserves, while General Gou-
raud Is bringing up his guns. This is
an advantage in which it is difficult
to find sufficient compensation for the
ground n men lost. The lines they
retired to are no stronger than those
they abandoned.
Enemy airmen made several spec
tacular attacks on trench observation
balloons One balloon was destroyed
but the observers in three others were
forced to descend by parachute. One
German airman attacked three bal
looms in quick succession, plunging
down upon n and firing all chen ris-
ing to dive at another. One Of these
burst into flames only an instant be-
fore the observer had jumped with his
parachute. Shrapnel shells then be-
| gan to burst close about the enemy
machine and he turned and sped
away for the German lines.

Front. Sept. 27.-(Reuters. GENERAL
Pershing's army n more has added
to its laurels and once more its task
has been simplified by the excellent
method of attack. A considerable adj
vance has been made by the Ameri-
cans along the front Of attack.
The whole scheme worked like a
clock with a tendency to gain time,
but it is too soon to say yet what is
going to be the result Of it. At least
this can be said:. The enemy has been
forced from positions which nothing
would induce him to part with before.

This fighting was not. a IS a SUPER

As for the struggle itself, 1t was a
particularly hard one on the French
half of the front. In this connection,
however, it should be remembered
that this was the first time since July
that the Allies have been confronted
with a line deeply and strongly forti-
fed and composed of innumerable
successive lines of trenches, switches,
dugouts, redoubts and field forts, all
perfected during four years Of I'M
broken enemy occupation. Further

the attack the enemy appeared to
