I'gsition Near Souchez Is Taken by tbie Enenay, But French Troops Rave Regained a Part of the Lost Trenches --Defenders Were Enveloped In Dense Clouds of Poisonous Fumes.. LONDON, July 13, --By a terrific night attack, prepared for by a hur- ricane of asphyxiating shells, which enveloped the French in .a dense cloud of deadly fumes, the Germans have carried by storm the cemetery south of Souchez, thus regaining a position of great strategic value, and bending the French line inward half a mile. The cemetery is located - on the road to Arras and controls not only this highway, but the railway lead- ing from Carency, which han been the main avenue of the French ad- vance on Souchez, Behind Souchez, slightly to the north, lies Givenchy. To the southeast lies Vimy. These have been the objectives 'of the French drive. Fighting for the possession of the position continues with great energy, Still bombarded heavily by shrapnel, solid shot and the terrorizing gas shells, the French report that they have already recovered a portion of the sections of trench adjoining the cemetery which they were forced to abandon when they were driven fro ,i the cemetery itself, ,after battling 120 days for the hill Country between llethune and Arras, the French fortes are in possession of all the eminences looking out upon the plain oe Flanders. Lille, Douai and Cambial all are visible from here. The attack Friday night was made under parachute rocket lights, the French burning• bluish -white and the German greenish -white, covering the scene of the desperate conflict with a ghastly glow. The most desperate fighting has been along the short ten -mile front from Arras to Aix-Noulette, which began March 9 with the taking of a few hundred yards of trenches on the watershed of Notre Dame de Lor- ette, where there are the ruins of an old Merovingian military road, Every day since then some section of the German trenches has been taken, lost or retaken. Each side has been employing for- midable artillery, both of small and heavy calibre, the Fftlieh guns being somewhat the more numerous and served with unlimited quantities of high explosive shells. A correspondent of the Associated Press Saturday went through five or six miles of trenches formerly held by the Germans and reconstructed by the French, who now have abandoned them to move forward. UpwlkiKe, of 100,000 Germans have fallen or been captured in these trenches, accord- ing to the French official count,. Since the second week of March. The French losses, the correspondent was confidentally informed, while serious, have been much smaller than those of the Germans. There are thickets of little crosses made of twigs tied together, marking the graven be- tween the trenches. Some of ':these graves have been torn up by the shellfire. i Almost every square yard of this region is marked by miniature' cra- ters caused by exploding shells. 'Spots where shells penetrated the `earth without exploding are indicated by signs bearing the words "Live shell." One line of the German works was just below the summit of a `•steep slope, which, from the nature Gf the ground, could not be shelled without danger to the French position a little higher up. The Germans wereshel tered in dugouts under the hillsides, and their French assailants, sliding or jumping down into the trenches, were shot or bayoneted from caves.. The line finally was taken by tossing grenades by the basketful into the trenches, until so many of the de- fenders in the concaved sheltersf were killed or wounder that they were too weak to resist, an assault. Every curve or angle in the miles of'laby rinthine cuttings has its story of tragedy, and heroism. AFRICAN CAMPAIGN FENDS. Botha Accepts Surrender of German Military Forces.
