Paris, Aug. 29.-In an advance
reaching two and half miles at
certain points in tWeIve-and-a-
half-mle front, the French cap
tured Roye and seven villages, &C
oording to the war office announce
ment.
THE enemy was forced to
hasten his withdrawal on both
sides Of the Ayre," the statement
says.
Paris, Aug %. - Frenzied counter
attacks by the foe have failed to hold
back the British and French armies
who are hard after the Germans OH
the 75-mile battle front from the north
of Arras to the region of scissors
All along the front the German line
has given way before the pressure Of
the British and French troops at points
where the falling back of the enemy
or the capture of towns and roads
running eastward adds greatly to his
already serious predicament from the
standpoint OF strategy.
Numerous towns, villages and ham
let's have fallen into the hands Of the
British and French In the continue
ton OF the fighting and scarcely any
where along the battle front have the
Germans been able to do more than
delay the Allies.
In the region around Arras the Brit
ish are now well astride the roads
leading to Donai and Cambria and
further south along the Somme they
have pressed forward until they are
almost at the gates Of Peronne.
Between the Sonme and the Disc
the French have broken the backbone
Of the German resistance at Roye, cap
turing this pivotal point to an invasion
eastward of the plains of Picardy and
advancing their lines north and south
Of the town over a front of about
1211 miles to depth of more than
215 miles at certain points.
London, Aug. So British troops,
smashing through the German lines
In the battlefield OF Northern Picardy,
have reached the western and north
ern outskirts Of Bapaume, the town
which has been considered the key
stone OF the enemy lines in that thea
ter of operations.
The official statement shows slow
but continued progress in almost
every part of the line from Croisilles,
far to the north, to we'll below the
Sonme river
French Repu'se Enemy.
Between the Ailette and the Aisne
The French have repulsed German
aounterattacks and have advanced
their line about three-quarters OF a
mile IN the district east of Bagneux.
This advance should bring General
nangin's armies nearly north of the
town OF Juvigny, which appears to be
important from defensive point of
view
Enemy Plans New Defense.
German resistance continues to be
stubborn, but it Is believed that the
enemy Is nghting rearguard actions in
The hope OF checking the British long
enough to get on a new defensive line,
probably north and south through
Peronna. Divisions which have stood

The dead fish began to bc noticed

When the present battle began the
Germans had % divisions on that portion
of the field westward from Rheims rs far

been widened by the allied attack from

this part Of the front TO over 4O, and
placing a considerable strain upon the
enemys reserves.
They still have reserve divisions con-

they are all sufficiently recuperated to
