Positions improved
AT BanthevilIe

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
NORTHWEST OF VERDUN, Oct 10.
n p. m)--General Pershing's troops
today continued to improve their posi-
,ions in the region OF Bantheville and
the wood OF Bantheville.. There are
some indications that the Germans are
planning a withdrawal to what are be-
lieved TO be the new lines OF defenses
a few miles in the rear.
This possible retirement OF the Ger
mans is believed to be due to the men
acing position Of the Americans at the
edge Of the Kriemhilde line below Ian
dres-et-St Georges, where General Per.
shings men are steadily advancing.
| The Germans early this morning
launched a counter attack on the Ameri-
can positions in lie Grande Montague
The attack was repulsed The German
infantry attack was preceded by heavy
artillery fire.
The Germans this morning continued
their harrassing fire east Of the river
Meuse.
