SUMMARY OF THE SITUATION
(Special to the Guardian)
PARIS, Oct. 30.--Oillcers returning
here front tho battleileld declare suc- cess i'or the Allies has grown out of a series oi' furious conillcts on the ex- trcinc lct`t wing lying near the coast as wt-ll as in the neighbonrliood oi' Ypres and Arras. Everywliere they say the _I<‘rench and Ilritish forces have been nlili: to resist the onslnughts of the German column and reply with coiiiiter-attnclrs so full oi' vigour that tlicy carried the Allies away still t':irtlicr iorwurii in the inoveincnt to rr-capture lleigiiiin. The uiihesitating iiiunner in wiiicli thc (leririniifi threw iiiasses ot' men :it the Allies' positions time alter time, tin-ini oilicers declare cnnscd nsioiiisliniciit in thc lines oi` the Allies.
'l`hi'- iinprcssion prevailed that it was
the determination oi' the (lcriiiaiis to break through at any cost. Their he- roic sarrriiiceswere in vain, however, for attcr they used theinselvcs as it
liuinan battering rnni they were coin- peilcd to fall back wltlioiit having nc-
coinplislied the __tnsk. Opening the dykes by the lleigiaiis, near the ntonth ot' thc Itiver Ysur, placed tt i`orniidu- ble obstacle in the way oi' the tier- nians who were compelled to re(-ross the river and during the operations sni'i`creii se\'i=rcly from the Allies' ar- tiliery.
The attacks ot' the (li-rnians to-day
are reported to have been ncconipiisli- ed with the violence ol’ previous ns- sauits. 'l`lie opposing forces were coil- siaiitly iifeoiitact. '
The beliaviour ol` all the allied
troops under the terriiic. strain has been wonderful. Iiattalioiis of Frencii in:ti‘ines from the ileet covered them- selves with exceptional glory in u grl-at bayonet charge along the const line wliicli did niuch towards forcing the (lerinnns around Lalinssce.
lioth the Allics and (lerinans have
tlispla_\'ed iniioinitnblc bravery in hand- to~hiind lighting which has been going on tiny and night lor two weeks. idirst one sidc, then the other has taken the oitensive uiiil the line swayed sonic- tinics this way and that.
The country is interposed with
thick hedges ainl ditches which makes operations diiilcnit. Oitcn these oli- staclcs must he overcome by the troops in the face oi withering iiro iroin an entrenched line. ()ii the Somme, the Oise and the Aisne, trequciit actions occurred to-day, especially near It-heims.
Both armies were so well-buriiid in
riile-pits and treiiclics that. there has been no important, change in positions. The fact tiini the battle is proiiress- ing is niori- easily discernable at night than by day, when sniokcless powder ri.-iiiicrs the artillery and ritic tire invisible.
In the iliirliiiens the iinslies nlioni
out brightly and thc roar and rattle of cannon and niacliine guns scents louder, while the scene is lirlgliteiied by it blaze from burning villages and farms.
` A l<‘i'encli aeroplane was conipciied to descend yesterday between the French and German trenches, but the occupants escaped. Last night (lapt. licllcnger with several ininntrymcn mnilc n daring reconnaissance and found the mociiinc. 'l‘hcy iiiicctcii re- pairs and brought. the aeroplane away in face ot heavy ilre.
On the Mouse tho Germans were
unable to bring their howitzers into action owing to the hilly country. while the French have been able to execute movements. 'I`oday`S Illflllllry engagements in that region were very hot.
In Upper Alsace Germans and
French are entrenched opposite each other on either side oi’ the valley. The French troops advanced in face of a terrible fire and captured trenches
of the enemy which they previously
had swept with artillery tire. The
,operation was costly in casualties, but the French secured a commanding
position.
