ERMANS MOWED inues to withdraw slowly before the pressure of the German masses, *s correspondent at British Headquarters wires. Over a large part of the battle zone the retirement is being made slintarily, so as to maintain an unbroken front. Prisoners say the advance of the Germans is behind their schedule. The tenacity of the British resistance, the prisoners say, exceeded anything the Germans deemed possible. They complain of great priva- on account of lack of supplies, and extreme weariness also is telling . Owing to the dense masses of supporting troops the enemy is to replenish his forward line with fresh units, The spirit and determination of tie British troops are excellent. The ition in many places rémains very confused, which is natural in fig! rthat has assumed more of the character of a war movement than 2 any time since the days of the Marne. GREAT DAY FOR BRITISH GUNNER. Yesterday was the supreme day for the British gunners, says Kew *ter’s correspondent. Attacking from north of Ervillers to the point 0} British contact with the French, the Germans were held up nearly every- where by the ceaseless intensity of the British artillery fire, Masses of enemy troops which, coming forward in waves, again and again attempted to reach their objectives, met with the same fate as the Ol Guard at Waterloo, In only one sector, near Sapignies, did they » Succeed in bending back the British front. It was to conform the front with this indentation that the British fell back during the night, straighten- “ing the line. British airmen last night made veritabie pandemonium of every centre of concentration of traffic behind the German front. Tens of thou- sands of rounds were fired point blank into enemy formations, while air- men fulfilled effectively their role as eyes of the artillery. . Haig’s losses, though great, have been fully made up, both in m Sand material, and he has not yet thrown a single reserve division into the fighting. There is no lost morale in the Allied Armies.
