(Special to the Guardian.) l‘AlllS, April 23.-Heavy artillery lighting continues along the l'roiit of the Frcncli offensive, the War Office ‘announces, East of (‘.rnoiine, the Ger- mans after n fierce bonibardiiiient grouped detachnients l'or attack. French guns replied effectively and preveiited the attack . The ofllcial state-ment. follows: "There was very active artillery fighting last night south of St. Quen- tin and -between Soissons and Rheinis. East of Craonne a very violent Ger- iiiuii boinbardnieiit was followed by preparations to attack. Our batter- ies replied effectively and the eneiny was not able to launch the attack. “ln Champagne the Germans st six o‘clock yesterday evening direc- ted a strong attack against the sa- lient northeast oi’ Mont Haut. it was broken by our artillery and ma- chine gunlire. The enemy renewed his efforts during the night on the ridges which we hold before Moron- villiers. Fighting was very spiri- ted at some points resulting _every- where to our advantage.

General Sir Douglas Haig reports that the forces under his command work- ed on it wide t`ront on both sidesof thc river Scarpe where a ilortion of the llindeiiliu"g line forms a barrier dc|'e=uling (‘aiiibrai anti that they are making satisfactory progress. l-`iirtlier south British troops have cnplured the re-mainder of thc villagi- oi' Trescault and occupied the grt-at- er part of I-luvriiieourt wood which forincd a twc- mile bulge in their lines. Froni this point to the St. Quentin line it approaches very closely to thc Ciiurbrei St. Quentin road and canal.
