Verdun
AR1S, Aug. 21.—A smashing
Ftettch eictorY On the Verdun front
is retarded lri the (Meld report
issued bY the War Ottice Monday
night. The French have captured
the enemy defences on both sides of
the Meuse over a front of more than
eleven miles, penetrating the Ger-
man line at divere points to a depth
ef a mile end a quarter. More than
4,000 unwounded German prisoners
have been taken.
The new territory taken by the
French embraces positions that have
literally 'weltered in French and Ger-
man blood in battles that have waged
to and fro since tho German Crown
Prince started his most costly en-
terprise, the taking of Verdun, which
'resulted in utter failure as a min-
t tary manoeuvre and cost tho lives of
tens of thousands of his men.
Notable among the captured posi-
tions are the Avocourt Wood. the
two summits of Le Mort Homme, the
Cornea= Wood and Chatapneuville,
all of which were held despite
vicious counter-attacks by the Ger-
mane, whicb were broken up by the
French fire with heavy casualties.
French airmen aided materially the
infantry in the press forward,
swooping low over tbe German.
forces and emptying their machine
guns into the ranks, and in fights in
the air with German proteeting ma-
chine.s, eleven of which were sent
hurtlini to the ground.
The text of Monday night's state-
ment reads:
"t)n the front north of Verdun our
troops captured on both sides of the
Meuse enemy defences on a front of
13 kilometres and to a depth which
exceeded two kilometres at certain
points. On the left bank of the river
we hold in particular the Avocourt
Wood, the two summits of Le Mort
Homme, Corbeaux 'Wood, and Cu-
rateres. On the right bank we have
occupied Tatou Ridge, Champ,
Charnpneuville, Hill 344, Mormont
Farm, and Hill 240, north of Louve-
"On the right our troops have
e.dvanced considerably in the Bois
des Fosse and the Bois de Chaume.
"The number of unwounded pris-
oners taken is more than 4,000.
"The Germans carried out violent
counter-attacks in the Avocourt
Wood and against Le Mort Hommo
and Hill 344, but our Are everywhere
broke down their efforts and inflicted
heavy losses. Our aviators took a
brilliant part in the battle turning
their machine guns at a low height
against enemy concentrations and
contributing also to the repulse of
British Sailers Iyowneti.
