EARLIER TELEGRAMS.
(Continued from page 5.)
THE ALLIED successes IN FRANCE.
The "Baytish Revenge.
London, Aug. 10. Reuter's correspondent at French Headquarters, writing on Friday evening, says: The front formed as a result the French advance to-day is a large convex curve from Courtenouche to Rozieres and about eleven miles from Mursel to the west bank of the Avṛe opposite Moreuil whence the French started yesterday morning. The enemy naturally is holding une flank of our attack in the region of Alonunder more obstinately than the centre. The colonels of three German regiments with their stalls were captured in yesterday morn- ing's surprise before the officers had time to push dressing, Une bolted, but French soldiers.ran qim down and brought him back. Fewer guns were taken by the French than the British because the Germans, anticipating the British attack, nad transferred many guns corth of the Amiens Noyon road. What the Paris papers enthusiastically style the "Britian Revenge is progressing in a fashion unprecedented in any Briust offensive hitherto, The advance has been slower north of the Somme than elsewhere the succession of ravines there favours detentive tactics, but our troops are back on their old lines south of the Summe. Generally speaking. the sabent has been broadened at both the apex and base by yesterday's successes and has now no seriously exposed nok. The Germans, as at the Marne, being driven into a great pocket south of the Somme with their backs to the river will need most desperate efforts to maintain themselves Where while retirement will imperil the flank of the new positions to which they have been driven from the Marae.
The crucial point is Chaulnes which is near an important road and railway centre and where the British advance has attained its greatest depus. Its capture is bound to preci pitate the German withdrawal from Montdidier salient, Some experts think possible a German attempt to escape their difficulties by another drive on the Channel parts, but on the contrary it is pointed out that Marshal Foca's present thrust has precisely anticipated such a move by necessitating far- ther inroads on Prince Rupprecht's reserves and as it is expocted that Marshal Foch will now deal other rapid blows the prospects of any effective German retaliation are regard- od as diminishing. This is practically admitted by German newspapers, which are now talking of new defensive strategy designed to spare mos in the event of the development of the Allied offensive,
A french communique says: Our troops operating on the right of the British pursued their successes last night. We progressed east of Ardvillers and captured Daveaes- court. Attacking south of loatdidier between Eyencourt- Leiretoy we took Rubescourt and Assainvillers and reached Faverolles.
The Position of the Americans.
Lyndon, Aug. 10. Renter's correspondent at American Headquarters, SATS Alie enemy very methodically thought out the problem of holding the heights beyond the Vesle. Once across the river. our troubles perceptibly increased. The enemy withdrew une bulk of his automaties to the wooded slopes, leaving only a few in the corn where they could eahlade our advance from the river, Many of these were silenced by dads of daring. When the outpost guns were disposed a bridge-head was formed and more troops got over. We advanced to the foot of the hills, We are now lying on the hillside practical ly in the open, the German gunners, watching every move- ment from a belt of trees abure. Their invisible machine- guns have a clear field of fire. Our gunners are shelling theirs with gas but hitherto without sensibly keeping down their fire. The Americans were first across the river their engineers constructing restle bridges from material cut down under fire.
i
Aerial Operations.
London, Aug. 10. Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig reports, on aviation: Our aéroplanes cooperated with other arms on the battle. front all day, signalled targets to the artillery and supplied our advance troups with ammunition from the air. They also dropped smoke-borubs before the tanks' line of advance, concealing their approach from the enemy, Flying low, our squadrons machine-gunted and bombed" the retreating enemy, causing havoc among his masses of troups and trans- port, also trains, juuctions and bridges, We destroyed forty- eight aeroplanes and drove down seventeen others uncon- trollable Fifty-one British machines are missing mostly shot down from the ground, Uur airmen continued yesterday to co-operate with infantry, cavalry and tanks. They heavily bombed the Somme bridges day and night,
A French aviation communique says: Notwithstanding the dense mist and low clouds our air squadrons multiplied their reconnaissances over the enemy Lues, frequently machine-gunning troops. Four enemy aproplanes and four captive balloons were felled in air tighting. Ten tons of projectiles were dropped on railways in the region of Chaulnes, Nesles, Ham and Reye.
ITALIAN ABRIĄL OPERATIONS.
Rome, Aug. 10. Eight Italian aeroplanes commanded by Gabrils. D'ân- Bunzio, the Italian poet, flew orer Vienna to-day and drop- ped manifestoes. All returned. A later message reports that one. aeroplane was forced to land near Vienna owing to engine trouble.
An Italian naval official message says: Anglo-Italian air activities since to Aug. include the bombardment of military works at Durazzo twice, also of Caitaro, Santostino-di-Livenze and Pola Fires "created at Pola and Durazzo were visible ifty miles distant,
ON THE ITALIAN FRONT.
London, Aug. 9. A British-Italian official message states: Our divisions carried out eight successful simultaneous raide between Asiago and Canave, We inflicted heavy casualties and pris- onered 316, taking also six machine-guns and three trench- mortars. Our casualties were light. Our Air Force destroyed eleven bostile machines, One of ours is missing.
FLYING FROM ENGLAND TO EGYPT.
London, Aug. 10
The Press Bureau reports that two Royal Air Force officers, accompanied by two mechanics, have just down from England to Egypt on an ordinary service maznine only halting once or twice for petrol, the flight being a piece of routine work. The distance flown is over two thousand miles and the pace was good throughout. This event gires full promise for the post war development of British aviation.
BIG AMERICAN ARTILLERY PLANT.
Washington, Aug. 10,
The War Department announces that plans have been completed for the building of a great gun relining plant in France at a coat of thirty million dollars, comparable to Krupp's Rasen woęka.
