Halg's Army Artillery Paves the
Way for the Drive.
London, July 17. Gen. Sir Douglas ,
llulg has opened the second phase of
the grout offensive In tho Somme re
gion. In n battle that exceeded In vio

ago, tho British carried the German
second line of four miles, captured
the villages of Bnziintln le Petit,
Bitzuntlu le Grand, Longuevnl, and
Ovlllers, and carried the remaining
German positions In the Troncs wood.
The battle begun-nt daybreak. Only
tho day before the German first line,
from Hnrdecourt to Ovlllers, had been
won, and the big guns bad begun to
pounce once more at tho Teuton
trenches.
All night the heavy urtlllcry had
been driven without pause at the Ger
man second line. With the approach
of daybreak the bombardment was re
doubled, and soon after tho first of
Halg's troops left their defenses to
begin tho charge.
Furious lighting continued for the
rest of the day nnd Is still going on
tonight. The Germans, taken un
awares by tho swiftness with which
the attack had been renewed, were
forced back easily at first. But Boon
rc-enforcemcats wero brought up nnd
heavy counter-attacks begun.
Two of these thrusts were crushed
by tho British lire before they reached
tho newly won British positions. Then,
in tho afternoon, a third wits launched
at Bazantln le Petit. So llerce wns
this assault that Halg's troops wero
pushed out of tho village. But fresh
Infantry wns brought up, and the
Teutons wero routed once more.
In tho Troncs wood soldiers of the
West Kent regiment hnd been sur
rounded two days ago by the Ger
mnns. They held out vnllnntly for -18
hours, until their comrades, forging
on In tho new attack, succeeded In
rescuing them.
By hewing, blasting, nnd bayonnet
Ing their wny the British broke
through tho German second line from
nbovc Bazantln to below Trones wood.
In point df nron, this Is much the best
work dono by the British slnco tho bo
ginning of tho Inst fortnight. Fight
ing continues nround Ovlllers; nnd vlr
tunlly tho wholo" vlllngo Is In British
bunds.
Tho enpture of Longuevlllo brings
Halg's line flvo miles cast of tho
orlglnnl front nnd Into position with
tho French nt nardecourt. In tho
wood beyond Longuevlllo nnd tho high
points of tho ridge tho buttlo In un
it bitted.
Slowly but steadily the British ad-
vnnco continues. The positions they
bitvo Just won put In peril tho Ger
man hold on Pozlercs, on tho mnlu
rond from Albert to Bnpnumo.
