May 29.———The text of the official report from Field Marshal Haig tonight reads: Counter-attacks carried out early this morning by French and British troops successfully re-estab- fished our line east of Dickebusch Lake. Several prisoners were cap- tured. In the enemy's attacks yes- terday morning in this sector and to the south. as far as Locre, four Ger- man divisions are known to have been engaged. In the course of the fight- ing heavy losses were inflicted on these divisions. The Allied line has been maintained at all points. 0n the remainder of the British front there is nothing to report beyond art- illery activity on both sides on the dif- ferent sectors. ALLIE8 EFFECTED ORDERLY RE- TIREMENT LONDON. May 29.——Notwithstand- ing the rapidity of the drive and the large number of the enemy-pressing it, some unofficial estimates place the number of Allied shock troops alone at twenty-five divisions, or about 860,000 picked men. The Allied front nowhere has been pierced, but under the onslaughts has bent back in per- fect liason, all the time giving battle. With such precision has the retire- ment been conducted that they car- ried with them all of their supplies and guns or destroyed those they were not able to handle. At present it is impossible geographically to de- pict the extent of the German gains. but It would seem evident that the deepest salient they have driven is in the region due east of Vailly, about eight miles. SITUATION WELL IN HAND LONDON,.May 29.—-Although the line of commlmication isrstill threat- enedlby~the army of the Crown Prince. General Foch has the situa- tion well in hand.

Five tons of bombs have been dropped on tho Mannheim Metz railway station. SITUATION IS REASSURING PARIS, May 29.—Tho situation to night is more reassuring. The latest advices from the front show that while the violence of the enemy's ef- fort as yet is unabated. He is only making headway on the centre and that even there the German moment~ urn is showing signs of slackening. The Allies are beginning to react with effect on the wings. The French left is holding well and blocking the German attempts to widen the salient toward Soissons. FRENCH HOLD thPORTANT’POSI- TION The French retain a wide bridge- '1ead north of the Aisno above that )ity, a circumstance highly menacing for the enemy's flank.
