FRENCH TAKE
 AN MPORTANT
 ENEMY POSITION
Dalton, Which Germans Were Ordered to Hold gro Last Drop of Blood" Falls
 Before Debeny's Troops

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE. Sept. 25.-(By The Associat- ed Dress) Debeny's troops in their latest advance toward St. Quentin took position at Dalton, which the ;2ist German division has been ordered to hold to the last drop of blood"
 Ten German officers and more than 800 me1 were prevented from making tho supreme sacrifice demanded of them. They fought well under the pro- lection of n curtain of fire from their artillery posted around St Quentin but Inc French troops were on them in successive waves so quickly that they could not carry out the order of the commanding general. von La Cheval- lero except by committing suicide. The alternative of captivity appeared ac- ceptable 10 most of them.
 French Tactics Puzzling
 The Germans suffered from lack of appreciation of the resourcefulness and supplcness of the French tactics. Gen. cral Debeney's men. having approached Inc position 10 within proper distance for an assault. abandoned the method v nfiltration which had characterized The operation around St. Quentin and made a resolute frontal attack.
 In tho first bound they took the central point of resistance at Francilly Selcncy and the cross roads five hun fred yards to the east.
 Keeping close mp with the creeping harrage which their artillery main- aimed with splendid precision, the at lacking waves swept the eastern edge ,f Ga,-,- xyOod c1par of thp enemy mass tuc beyond Marjorin wood and taking fhc village of LEpine de Dalton by assault.
 Makes Huns Hold Precarious
 Meanwhile German endorsements coming mp through the ravines from 'he region of St Quentin were caught lndcr the fire of the French guns.
 This success makes precarious the German hold on Hill 13S. This is the highest point in the positions along the ridges from Holnon to Dalton which thc enemy has been fortifying with fevcrish haste. Its fall, while it might not mean the fall of St. Quentin would greatly weaken the defenses of the city
 The troops that took Dalton by as- sault were the same troops who dis inguished themselves in the fighting 70 La Panneterie along the Canal du Word and took Beuvraignes three time. during the campaign that freed tho Montdidicr pocket and drove the Ger mans Co the Hindenburg line. They nave changed their tactics in fighting In the bush. in marshes and in tho 0ncn with the same success and witt an endurance that is emphasized bl the number of fresh German division: thcy have met since the battles o Beuvraignes.
