. CANADIAN HEADQUARTERS IN; FRANCE, (via London), June 29. j Success, unexpectedly great and complete at a cost in casualties far less than in some recent unimportant engagements has attended the drive of the Canadians along the valley of the Souchez toward Lens, during the last The gain of ground is greater than in any actions since the capture of Vimy Ridge, and the land restored to France Jpcludes some of her most productive coal mines. Coulotte, Leavitte and almost all of Avion are firmly held and that part of the plain east of Vimy where, a week ago, no one could show himself above the top

of a trench without drawing tne lire

of snipers and machine guns., may now be traversed in the open. Met Strong Resistance. Lying out In the water-soaked ground along the Souchez river this afternoon, still under fire, are the troops who attacked the enemy at "2: 30 o'clock on Thursday morning in the cutskirts of Avion. The Germans put up a resistance so strong that some of the advanced parties were forced to retire. it 7 o'clock in the morning, they at

tacked aeain. and after hard hand to

hand fighting, the result of which was seen in the number of German dead remaining on the field, they pressed forward to the western part of the village. The same men took part in the third attack within twenty-four hours. This

was launched at 7 o'clock last night

and after they had once again reached thA coal spt for them, thev surrendered

to sleep, the sleep of utter exhaustion in a downpour of torrential rain. The situation on Friday afternoon is regarded as most satisfactory. The

enemy by damming the Souchez river, bv blowing up the highway and the

railway bridges, crossing the canal and

by obstructing the connecting channels through the marshes in the region

southwest of Lens, has placed a belt

nf innndatni land between himself and

ih nanadian corns along a front of

more than a mile. . tvio inundations are a cover to

weakness the enemy would not have betrayed even a few months ago, because they reveal his intention to wage a purely defensive warfare along

this part of the line. Snirit of Men Weakens.

There are daily increasing signs that the German man power is no longer what it was. The number of enemy tmnna tn the field annears little less

than before the opening of spring op

erations, but the spirit ot tne men is Tm inntrcr that of an assured victory.

A prisoner taken yesterday spoke of

the process of disillusionment tne uer man noonla are now going through

if the war does not end soon, he said,

there will be a revolution in Germany. This changed spirit Is not due to underfeeding. Most of the German pris

oners are well nourished.

A big guardsman, at least six feet

four in height, when cornered tougnx like a wildcat till he was badly woundba and was so heavy that four bearers

could make no headway carrying him over the wet and slippery chalk to a dressing station. The change in their idea as to how the war will end is all the more significant, because it was not brought about by hunger or privation. .
