LONDON, Oct. 16.—The British Second Army, fighting in Flan- @ers, has reached Le Chat, on the Courtrai-Ingelmunster Road, and has captured the villages of Gulleghem and Neule, The British troops are in the outskirts of Courtrai, and the Germans in the city cannot hold out more than a few hours. In addition to occupying Menin, the British have taken Wervicg and are standing on the right bank of the Lys. The fall of Courtrai will strike the Germans a hard blow, since it is the vital junction between Bruges, in the north, and Lille, on tne south, Menin was a German stronghold on the Lys, southwest of Courtrai and four miles northwest of Turcoing. The main railroad line from Lille northward is, therefore, under Allied gun fire and cannot be used by the Germans, Directly west of Lille, the British have pressed far forward and re- | leased several villages from the foe. They advanced in the el atoll of Hauboirdin, about three miles west of Lille, and to the south have | ctossed the Haute-Deule Canal on a five-mile front on both sides of Pont- ‘-Vendin.
