THE FIGHTING IN FRANCE.

Results of French Attack.

+

London, July 24 Reuter's correspondent, writing in the evening, saya he learns that the new French attack, cabled earlier, farther resulted in clearing the woods north-east of Sauvillars- Mont Eutal and reached the western edge of another wood two thousand yards cast of Mailly Raineval. The advance reached a depth of two miles. The French captured the heights dominating the valley of the Avre, while 1,000 pris- onors and three guns were taken. The new attack is small show And not likely to extend much further. The line between the Aisne and the Ourcq was advanced across the Soissons-Chateau Thierry road to the western edge of Vaux. This local attack was on a two mile front. Heavy fighting between, the Durcq and the Marne immediately south of the Oureq resulted in the French reaching the road in several places from Coincy to Armentieres, which village is south-east of Oulchy-le-Chateau. Along the Marne the enemy destroyed some French across the river at Vincelles. The British, supported by French tanks, captured Marfanx and prisonered a hundred. The estimated German casualties since the last advance exceed 150,000,

· An Important Improvement.

London. July 24. Reuter's correspondent. at the French Headquarters, writing on July 23 at two in the afternoon, says: On the night of the 22nd-wind and rainstorms greatly hampered activity on the main battle-feld. This morning it rained steadily, a violent gale rendering impossible work by the aviators, iaus reducing the effectiveness of the bombardment. The operation between Montdidier.and Moreuil is interesting because it again gives us views over the Avre Valley, which were lost early in April. Mailly Raineval.

Further Allied Progress.

London, July 25.

A Havas message dated, Paris, July 24, sags: In order to delay as long as possible the probable result of General Foch's masterly counter-blow--the evacuation of Soissons, the Marne and Rheins" salient-the Crown Prince continues With to throw large fresa forces into the battle furnace.

Prince Ruprecht's new divisions, mostly brought from front, added to the sixty already used since the beginning" of the struggle on July 15, he is keeping up his desperate resistance on both sides of the salient. Despite his opposi tion the Allied troops continued their progress yesterday, particularly astride the Ourcq, on the line south of Soissons and also on the northern bank of the Marne. The bridge- head at Jaulgonne was considerably widened and strengthen- Further progress was also made by Franco-British troops between the Marne and Rheims. Nearly a mile was gained between the Ardre and Vrigny where the enemy. lost particularly heavily. A brilliant local attack, resulting in important gains, was made by French troops under General de Beney north of Montdidier," the advance being about two miles. The positions won give views over a vast area and had been strongly organized by the enemy. These gains are important in view of possible futuro operations.

Germans Fighting Desperately.

Amsterdam, July 24, Reuter's correspondent at the American Headquarters, writing on Tuesday afternoon, says: There was no slacken ing to-day in the triangle of the battle, the base of which stretches from Soissons to Rheims. The Germans are fight- ing desperately to escape General Foch's pressure, and to prevent the Allies capturing strategical points like Soissons, and Ferenurdenvis. In the southernmost angle where the *Franco-Americans afe closing is the fighting is confused, irregular and inecasing, bat on the enemy's part is a suc- cession of rearguard detions, fought by groups of men hav- ing only natural cover and helped. by an occasional shel- hole, for neavý guns are not used much from sheer ignorance of the rapidly saifung line, The Americans are using dimost wholly rifles and automatics most effectively. It must not beininganed that the enemy is attempting to prolong his stay on the pocket. He is continuing to make the best speed possible tuereirum and he is good deal furiber out vi It than is imagined. His resistance is limited to the sheer demands of safety. The weather to-day was the most disagree- able for weeks, but the scene is cheerful"in comparison with & few weeks ago when the trenches were burriedly being dug to arrest me German advance. Now where the enemy snipers once held the river, great guns are crossing on sway- mg pontoons, along roads where once there was stagnation, everything is moving joyously forward. On all faces is the exultant smile of victory,

Uther Reports.

London, July 2

Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig reports: We raided at night southward of Bucquoy, prisonering eighteen, Another raud north-westward of Albert prisonered a few. We repuls ed an attempted enemy raid nurth-eastward of Bethune Hostile artillery is active on the northern portion of the front particularly in the neighbourhood of Locre,

French experts point out that the French north of Mont- didier now control all the roads to Amiens across the Plateau between the Avre and the Noye valleys, also heavy artu i ery has been placed in the three captured villages and protects the railway to Amiens along the Noys Valley from bombardment.

THE KING ADA NAVAL DEPOT.

London, July 24, HM the King has been visiting an important Navai depot, where he inspected the biggest and most powerful Naval force ever assembled Some idea of its formidable- nees may be gathered from the fact that these warships plac ed end on shd would stretch in a continuous line exceeding 22 miles. American vessels figured in the pagesni, Admiral Beatty welcomed His Majesty, who subsequently boarded a destroyer and passed along the lines of peels, being cheered very loudly. His Majesty proceeded to the quarter- deck of the flagship for an unparalleled historical ceremony, namely a wartime investiture afloat.: His Majesty decorated officers and men of the American and British Navita for gallant exploits. The King accompanied by Admiral Beatty next embarked on a barge land, vixited the American flag---- ship. He was enthusiastically rebeived.
