MAKING Bio Sacrifinnn.

With the French Army in France,
Sunday, Sept. 15.-(By the Associat-
ed Press.) 1.-The sacrifices the Ger
mans are making to stop the slow
but steady advance of General Man
gins forces toward the Chemin des
Danes are evidenced by the large
number of enemy dead found on the
field OF Saturdays and Sundays
operations. The number Of prison
ers which increased during the day
to more than $500, also is large for
the length of front attacked.
The dead are thickest around Laf-
daux mill and east of Vauxaillon,
where the enemy counter attacked
violently today in a vain effort to re-
gain the positions he lost Saturday.
Gen. Mangin's troops not only main
tanned all their gains but pushing
on from Vauxaillon they captured the
plateau to the southeast, which gives
them a vantage ground Of great i'm
portance. Extending the field of bat
tie to the south, the French also made
appreciable gains by occupying Men
mclean farm and ground consider
ably to the east of that position. Fur
Their south they took by storm Hill
No. 1853, north Of Celles-SurA isne.
The Germans came back repeatedly
AL 81 OA4Ss 4O4GC GA c@ASllS lilo LLOlAL
and fought stubbornly but with no
other result than to increase their
extremely heavy losses.
While these actions seem to be only
details when compared with the re-
cent large operations, their signifi-
canoe appears clearly from the de-
termined efforts made by the Ger
mans to stop them.
Further advance by the French on
the high ground west and south Of
the Chemin des Danes will make the
German positions there precarious
