PARIS, Sept. 10. The loft end of
the curved Gorman battle line, which
on September 7 extended In the seg
ment of a wide circle from Meaux to
Vlt ry Le Francois, about 100 miles
to tho enst of Paris, was hit by the
Kngllsh trip hammer yesterday and
forced to double back for a distanc
of approximately twenty-five miles.
ThiK outcome of the fighting has
aroused great aaUnfaction In Pr.ris.
It is argued here that It proliably has
resulted In an emual degree of anxiety
for tha German general staff con
cerning its line of communications.
In spite of the continued sober
ness of the French official communi
cations on the progress of theee en
gagements. It Is evident that the ac
tions of yeBterday and the day be
fore constituted one of the hottest
battles of the war.
Yesterday evening a large number
of automobiles, loaded with stretch
ers, speeded out of Paris toward the
east. Thla fact might suggest also
that yesterday's action was one of
the most costly advantages so far
gained by the allies.
