British Stop Enemy. London, Aug. 31. The repulse of a German raid on the' front below Lens is rep u tnl in today's oi!k:;'l communication. The statement fol lows: "The weather is unsettled. During the night t lie enemy heavily shelled our forward positions near Arlcux-Kn-Goholle (live miles southeast of Lens) and at. an ei'.rly hour this morning attentf ted to raid our lines. The German troops were repulsed completely." Gen. Maurice's Weekly 'Report. London. Aug. 31. The lat week has been marked by a pause on all the western front a. pause which was inevitable after the great suc cesses of the previous vvee-k, a pause accentuated by the bad weather that affected the operations all the way from' the North sea to the Ital ian seacoast,' said Idaj. Gen. ! IJ. Maurice, chief director of military operations at the war oflk-e, in hij weekly talk to the officials. "At the moment it 13 the Italian front where the situation is the most interesting. Here also, after a really important advance, there now comc.t a pause pending the readjustment of the artillery positions. There is much more to be done during these pauses. The problem is whether General Cadorna will be able to get his guns posted for the renewal of operations before the Austrians get up adequate reserves, some of which are being brought from the Russo- Itumanian front. That is the prob lem in the pauses in all these battles the race between the preparation of offense and defense. "In Flanders the process of wear ing down the Germans bv contin uous bombardment, continuous air fighting and continuous infantry raids, is being kept up and is hav ing a far greater effect then is gen erally realized. This effect is shown in the constant necessity imposed on the Germans of withdrawing and replacing units. "We now are in the first phase of the Flanders battle. We are ex hausting with good success the Ger man reserves, and later w ill come the second phase to which we are all looking forward confidently. 0 "On the Russian front there has been another regrettable incident," namely, the voluntary withdrawal of certain Russian units near Czernow- itz. The result wa3 ncglicible. but it serves to show, in conjunction with General Korniloff's speech, the state to which the Russian army has come and. makes it even more re markable that the Germans have 'been unable to achieve more.
