GERMANS REPORT VICTORY OF THE CAVALRY AT LILL French War Office Says There Have Been Engagements at La Bassee, ~and That-24 Forts at Antwerp Still Hold Out. PARIS, Oct. 12 [United Press].—The whole German front is about to take the offensive again, according to military strategists to-day. Attempt by the German forces, which have worn down the defenses of Antwerp to join with the German right wing in assaults westward toward the coast, is expected here to be the signal for a general attack on the whole battic line, now extending well over three hundred miles. A new attempt to pierce the centre line and another rush toward Paris is believed to be part of the plan. The German General Staff by this offensive, it is cx- plained, probably hopes to kcep the allies sufficiently busy all along the line to prevent the sending of reinforcements to ward off the encircling movement out of Lille. The French War Office has scented the trap. French and British stratcgists long ago anticipated that Antwerp must fall, and started a concentration of forces at Ostend. New British troops, among them, it is reported, many from Canada, are understood to be ready for this new German offensive toward the seacoast. In the face of a renewal of activity on the part of German aerial craft, Paris refus& to view the situation in any other light than that of extreme optimism. The morale of the allied troops is splendid. The weather has improved greatly, the rains ceased for the most part, and the German artillery fire is less frequent, particularly at Verdun, which fortress has now sustained German bom- bardment for cight weeks. ; Toeday’s official 3 o'clock communique told of the attempt of the German western line te sweep forward on the French coast to the straits of Dover. It characterized the situation as good. Vigorous cavalry engagements con- tinue in the region of La Bassee, Estaires and Hazebrouck. The statement says that a German attack between Lassigny’ and Roye was repulsed, and that the French for- ward movement continues along the centre. {Announcement of cavalry engagements os far west as Haze- brouck is significant.

Their places will be takon by a volunteer corps just formed in Italy. Although the return of troops from Lybia 1s ostensibly due to the fact that thelr term of enlistment has ex- pired, the movement is universally acceptedgin Italy as another of the steady preparations being made by the Italian Government for eventual participation in the present war.
