LONDON, Sept. 20.—Despatches from the Britis and French fronts show further progress in the envelopment of Sé, Quentin. On the south the French have carried Essigny-le-Grand, four miles from the city. In his report Field Marshal Haig says English troops attacked in the Lempire-Epehy sector shortly after noon yesterday. In the face of heavy artillery and machine gun fire they made : progress to the depth of more than'a mile beyond the line pre- viously gained in this locality. A strong position known as Malassise Fann (midway between Lem, pire and Epehy and opposite Le Catelet) was captured after obstinate resistance, and with it a number of small woods, posts and defended lo. calities forming part of the former British defensive system. On the northern part of the battlefront British attacked last night and recaplured Mocuvres, Here also the enemy's resistance was obsti- nate. Tue fighting is still continuing. GERMANS SUFFER MNEAVY LOSSES. Losses of the German troops have been tremendous. The British War Office last night announced the capture of 10,000 prisoners and 60 guns in the present drive. The number taken by the French has not been announced, It is reported that the British have captured 40,090 Germans so far in September and that the captures by Americans and French on other fronts bring the total number of prisoners up to 70,000 for the month, Paris reports that south of the St. Quentin sector the French have gained further ground northeast of Vailly in the direction of the Chemin des Dames. A German attempt to cross the Vesle, where American troops are in the line, was repulsed. The Germans during the night made strong attacks ayainst the new French positions north of Allemant, between the Ailette and the Aisne. The enemy was repulsed with very heavy losses, AUSTRALIANS CUT DEEPER INTO LINE. WITH THE BRITISH FORCES IN FRANCE, Sept, 20 (Associ- aled I’ress).—Australian troops to-day continued their penetration of the Hindenburg systean and are now two-thirds of a mile from Bellingfise, four miles northwest of St. Quentin. Steady thrusts made by the victorious British divisions on the battle front northwest of St. Quentin gave them additional ground during the night. Exhausted enemy forces sheltered in the Hindenburg main de fenses were given no rest. On the right near the junction of the Allled armies English and Scottish troops completed the clearance of Holnon village and the nest and redoubts adjoining, which had given considerable trouble to the French. The British troops swept the cemetery at Fresnoy free of machine guus, Gricourt, a village one mile east of Fresnoy, which had besa strongly defended by reason of the network of old British. trenches, was kept under a destructive fire during the night. ‘The recapture of Moeuvres last night completely restores the Brity ish line in that section of the Canal du Nord. The Germans fought very hard for the village. Moeuvres is a solid mass of trenches and dugouts covering a square mile of ground. dt is the junction of the main and sw port Hindenburg lines, and is the most difficult ubstacle which the Britisy have encountered anywhere in that defensive system. The enemy te gards it as the key to the position north of Havrincourt, aoreenenieny AMERICANS CHECK TWO RAIDS ALONG THE LORRAINE FRONT Infantry Attacks Follow Two Bombardments Lasting Forty-five Minutes—Fail to Reach U.
