SINGLE ADMIT REVERSE War Summary The turning movement of the allied armies lu northern France haa brought the extreme of their left wing within about thirty miles of the Ilelgian frontier. An official statement Isnued by the French war office yesterday say that part of the battle line, stretching generally north and south, haa been extended north to a point south of Arras. This line on which the allies are attempting to envelope the Ger man right wing, under General von Kluck, has been pushed gradually toward the Belgian border as the Germans widened their front In defense, until It ex tends some fifty-five miles from the angle that rests on Tracy-le-Mont, Terrific fighting continues on the allies' left wing, according to Paris statement, the most severe struggle being In the region of Hoye, a town twenty-six miles ent of Amiens and about mid way on this battle 'line. Here the Germans have concentrated strong forces, probably with the purpose of breaking through the front of the allies and isolating their forces to the north. The Paris statement adds that the Germans attempted to bridge the Meuse near St. Mihlel, but their pontoons were destroyed. French claims of slight progress In the Woevre district are recorded, as are minor engagements at various points on the front, extending east and west. In a statement received by wire less from Berlin, the German headquarters announced that the great battle In France remains un decided. The Germans with their heavy artillery are hammering the positions of the allies at many points. The allies were repulsed In their attempts to break the German's lines. The German statements say the heaviest losses have been In the Argonne region. A Petrograd correspondent says that the Germans, from tour points, are attempting to concent trate on southern Russian Poland, where a decisive battle Is ex pected. Interest In the attitude of Bul garia is revived by a dispatch from Rome saying that all Bul garian army officers In Italy and Switzerland have been ordered home at once.

Unleaa all alcna 'are wrong the German armies la France, or at any rate most of them, are nearlng the completion of their round trip. This, it Is held here, Is the only conclusion hinted at even by 'the Berlin newspapers to be drawn from the reports, both official or unofficial, of those on or near the scene of action. It is evident that the progress of the allies on their left Is considerable, while the hole through which the Germans might have pierced the line of French fortresses on the MeuBe river 'eld has been stopped. The fierce battling around the heights of Roye, to the northwest of Noyon, seems to have ended in favor of the French. The heights were cap tured by General von Kluck's men on Wednesday, but on Friday, according to a French report, the allies regained control of the position. Antwerp, temporarily the Belgian capital, ought to be capable of main taining a long defense. King Albert Is a romantic figure of the war la this quarter.
