(Special to The Guardian.) -

The Initial phase of the trcnleililous

battle which has opened in northern France has apparently turned' ln favor of the `Fre‘llch who are reported to have forced their way across the Allette River, and the Crozlit Canal nt several points. Along these water- ways the Germans elected to make ‘heir flrs-I. stand in defence of La. Fcre, toward which General Nivelle` is iushing his advance troops in a des perate e‘fi`oi't to break the Iiindcn-‘ liurg lille before the Gorman defence is consolidated.

Further south the French are nt-

telnpting to batter their way toward Laon but between them alid their goal lie the great forests of (Ionchy ami St. Gohnlll und the comparativ- ely ineugre advances repcrte‘d from Paris indicate that the issue is still very lillich ill doubt, Some ground has been gained llortllensg ot' Sols- sons but the fact that the French re- port lieving inflicted very heavy loss- es on the Gernian:-i is an initniatloli that the invaders are holding this sec- ` tion in force.
