Their line now runs from Etain, on the Osne River, 12 miles northeast of Verdun, through to their stronghold of Metz, and then south to Chateau Salins in the Vosges. “In Alsace the situation continues unchanged.” The allies have taken many prisoners. Entire regiments are reported to have been cut off and captured. So swift {has been the pursuit of the BritisheFrench forces on the left that at some points the pursuing column has been able to reach the cross roads ahead of the Germans and cut them) off and compel them to surrender. That the army of the Crown Prince is being hard pressed \in the effort to drive it north and thus relieve Verdun is known here, The Germans tried to envelop the seven forts that lie between Verdun and Toul. These, however, have all held ‘out with a single exception. It is officially stated that the main columns of the Crown Prince’s army are now being forced toward Stenay and Luxemburg. It is not believed here that another decisive battle is possible for several days. The Germans are short of am- jmunition and they will have difficulty reforming their exhausted army. The Germans are collecting their straggling forces from the northwest and preparing for a stand east of Amiens. They are on a semi-circular line that takes in St. Quentin, Guise and Vervins on their right and then swings rapidly} southward toward Rethel and the Aisne River lines to the! neighborhood of St. Menehould, which was yesterday abane doned by the Crown Prince’s army. Everything pointed to-! ;day to a renewal of serious fighting. | The Germans are making their stand in positions from (Gentinued om Second Page) — eG ee CROWN PRINCE DRIVEN BACK: German Crown Prince Reviewing Boy Scouts Before War Beg (Copyright Underwood & Underwood.)
