Some hundreds of prisoners were captured by us in this fighting. “Local fighting also took place yesterday afternoon on the Lys bat- tlefront in the neighborhood of Givenchy, as a result of which forty prisoners were captured by us. “South of the Somme the fighting continued during the afternoon to the advantage of the Allies’ troops in the Hangard-Villers-Bretonneux sector. Our line was again advanced at certain points and a hostile at- tack with tanks early in the afternoon was broken up by our fire and failed to develop.

She is held ro- sponsible in Pan-German circles in Austria and Germany for the feeling that exists against Germany. The Duchess of Parma, the mother of Empress Zita, has been refused permission to go to Switzerland, and was turned back from a sinall village, The newspapers say the dsparture of the mother of the Empress “for sev. eral days” may be extended to longer duration, more by necessity than choice.
