NEW RETREAT WED BYJJED DRIVE

Continued From Page On*

art fighting stiffly to prevent this resulting in desperate combats in the villages and other vantage points south of Valenciennes. The British, howevet, are pushing steadily ahead, and have taken Maing ^nd Vedegnies. Fighting was resumed this sector Friday morning, with the British advancing frotn the hills, east of the Ecaillon river, toward the rallrqad and high road between Valenciennes and LeQueanoy.

British Take Villages.

Immediately) north

Valenciennes

the British have taken additional vil. lages and continue to approach the important crossing of

the Scheldt at

Conde. The town Is six and

a half

miles northeast of Valenciennes. French troops east of the SambreOise canal, in the region of Longchamps, have repulsed two German attempts to drive them back across the canal.

Along the Serre and Souche rivers the French Friday resumed the push after having thrown back enemy efforts, south of Mont Cornet.

British troops today are smashing through eastward on the sector between Valenciennes and LeQuesnoy, which is vital to tlwr security Of Valenciennes

Further south the French, who have been gradually forcing the enemy from the pocket between the Oise and the Serre, have resumed their pressure and are reported to have entered Vil-lers-Le-Sec and surrounded I^aFerte.

American forces have made further gains east and west of the Meuse, despite strong enemy resistance. The Germans on the western end of the line are reported to be preparing to withdraw northward from Grand Pre, where their positions are outflanked by tl»e French east of Vouziers.

Inroads by the British and Americans against the German line south of Valenciennes continue and It seems probable that the enemy will h# forced to begin a

new retreat toward the

east. Although the allies have reached the Mormal wood, where the Germans have prepared for a stubborn defense, the progress mode just to the north of this extensive wooded section threatens to turn the enemy out of his positions there before he has an opportunity to meet frontal attacks along the western side of the forest. It would seem that the advance between Mormal forest and Valenci^ines has shattered the Germans hope to stand on the defensive along this section of the line for any protracted period.

French Continue Advance. French forces, fighting their way eastward through the German trenches along the Oise-Serre front, have moved forward at three points. Opposite Longchamps they have crossed the Oise canal, a barrier which has held them up for several days, and further south have advanced near Origny-St. Benoite. Just around the bend in the line they have cut a deep notch in the German lines north of Villers Le Sec. These successes are on a front, which is quite important to the en cm/

ERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE,

In Belgium there h»s been a comparative lull in the combat during the past few days, but it is improbable thai* the allies will be content to stand on the western bank of the Scheldt river and the Eecloo-Zeebrugge canal after they have been able to bring up their heavy guns. In a country intersected with canals and streams, with bridges destroyed and roads mined at frequent intervals, the work of moving artillery is very difficult, and this may be the reason for the temporary check in the sweeping advance which drove the enemy back from Nieuport to within seven miles of Ghent.

Allied detachments which are holding the Dvina front in north Russia have been forced to beat off heavy attacks by Bolshevik troops, but have succeeded in holding their ground and even moving their lines forward.

AMERICANS MAKE GAINS

Positions Improved In Spite of Strong German Artillery Fire. WfTH THE AMERICAN ARMY NORTH OF VERDUN, Oct 25.—1 P-

m-—(By

the Associated Press.)-

The American troops despite strong German artillery fire improved their positions at three important points along the front east and west of the 6use during the night.

East of the Meuse the Americans drive the enemy from the eastern edge of the Bois d'Orxnofit, gaining their objective.

In the region of Grand Pre, west of the Meuse the Americans straightened out their line and captured several important ridges. Between Rap Pes wood and Bantheville wood the American line was extended despite stubborn resistance.

It is reported that the Germans are preparing new defense .positions near Briquenay, 4^ miles north of Grand Pre and that they are expected to take a stand in that region within a weeki

Capture Crack Troops.

Among the prisoners captured by the Americans are members of the 2Stb division known as the "flying shock division.''

Twelve American soldiers suffered from hunger have returned after spending four days and four night? hiding in shell holes and from under brush in the region of Losges farm. They fought off small detaehmenu of

and will tendf to hasten the German retirement from the bend in the line, which remairted after the evacuation of JLaon was carried out.

The American divisions which are engaged in the tremendous task of tearing away the Kriemhild line between the Argonne forest and the Meuse, have once more advanced their front, especially near the western end of the sector.. There, in spite of desperate German resistance and repeated counter attacks, they have moved ahead during the past day and appear to threaten the rest of the German defense system to the east. Near Bantheville the Americans have gained important tactical advantages. East of the Meuse the Germans have been forced back more than half a mile on a front of nearly a mile and a half.

Italians Renew Activity.

There are indications that activity along the Italian front, which has b^en at a low ebb since the final repulse of the Austrian offensive, has revived. Vienna reported violent artillery duels along the I'iave.

Kotwithstandihg the constant harrassing the twelve made patrolling expeditions each night and brought back valuable information regarding the enemy gun positions.

IN HARD FIGHTING.

Battle Ri|ei With tnteftse Ptiry In' Valenciennes Region. WITH THE ALLIED ARMIES INT FRANCE AND BELGIUM. Oct 25.— 11 a. m.—(By the Associated Press).— Heavy fighting was taking place today on the battle front in the region of Valenciennes, especially south of the town. The British have gained ground at almost every poifit along the front.

On the high ground south of Valenciennes the battle is raging with intense fury, but the British are overi coming the enemy.

At last reports the British held this line: From Lie Faux to Robersart to Englefontaine to Ghissinies to Beadignies, where they are within a mile and a half of LeQuesnoy to the cast of Ruesnes to Sommaing to Moachaux. The British gained Monchaux after bloody fighting.

The British line is now within one* mile of Landrecies. Desperate lighting is reported in the Bois L'Evecque and the neighborhood, where the Germans were killed by the thousands. It appeared that the enemy had orders to hold on regardless of the cost. The Germans apparently were disposed in great depth and had several hastily constructed lines of defense which they were determined to maintain until defenses farther east had been prepared
