FRENCH BATTLE
WAY 800 YARDS
INTO FOE'S LINES
Germans Enter Trenches at
Various Points, But Are
Driven Back With Heavy
Losses.
(By Associated Press.)
French and German troops have
been engaged in heavy fighting on
both sides of the Meuse in the
Verdun sector.
West of the river the French have
gained the enemy positions on a front
of about 1,400 yards to a depth of
800 yarns, while east of the river the
Germans were unsuccessful in strong
attacks on a six-mile front.
Sunday the Germans sent heavy
forces against the French positions at
Samogneux, north of the Bois de
Caurieres and near Pezonvaux. They
entered the French line at various
points. Violent French artillery fire
inflicted heavy loss on the attackers
and they were unable to hold onto the
trenches they had gained.
The French success west of the
river was made at Malancourt, west
of Dead Man hill. At the Cheppy
wood, immediately west of Malan
court, the French late Friday pene
trated trenches on a front of 800
metres to a depth of 300 metres. After
destroying the positions, the French
returned with 80 prisoners and seven
machine guns. East of Rheims, in the
Champagne, German troops momen
tarily gained a footing in French po
sitions west of Vaudesincourt, but
suffered heaviiy under a French coun
ter attack, which restored the situa
tion. Down Twenty-three German Planes.

The ill-Russian congress of Soviets
has declared Moscow to be the Rus
sian capita! and it is said that all
government and military effects have
been removed from Petrcgrad The
bolshevik leaoers, although they urged
and obtained ratification of the Ger
man peace treaty, are said to have
little hope tnat the treaty will bring
peace and are calling upon th: local
Soviets to form military organizations
with which to combat the Germans
should their invasion continue fur
ther into the heart of Russia.
BELGIANS TAKE
COASTSECTOR ON
WESTERN FRONT
On the British Front in Flanders,
Sunday, March 17. The important
coast sector of the western front,
which for considerable time has
been held by the French, has been
taken over ry the Belgians.
That King Albert's new army has
been able to assume this additional
burden speaks highly for the condi
Jion of this comparatively small fight
ing machine, which has battled so
valiantly from the beginning On a
recent visit to the Belgian front
there the correspondent learned that
the Belgians had effected a great im
provement in their organization dur
ing the winier months and certainly
the morale of troops and officers
seems at the highest pitch.
Lieutenant Colonel De Ceyninck,
the minister of war, informed the cor
respondent that it sometimes had been
difficult to restrain the Belgian sol
diers until the proper moment for ac
tion came. The war minister seemed
to reflect the general voice of the
army when he said:
"Whenever the call comes we shall
be waiting to respond with every atom
of strength we have."

ers swept forward into the German
second line. Our men rem red
nearly an hour in the German posi
tions, and retired after inflicting .Tuch
damage and capturing considerable
quantity of material.
"There has been a decided increase
in sniping, owing to more favorable
weather conditions.
"We kept up a vigorous bombard
ment on the rear areas opposite our
Toul sector.
"Near the Swiss border, where an
other detachment of our men are in
the trenches, hostile bombardments
are frequent.
"The arrival of our secretary of war in
France is noted. During the last week
the secretary has had interviews with
the leading French authorities and is
about to undertake a careful inspec
tion of our schools, training areas,
rest camps, as well as those sectors
of the front where our forces are in
action.
On West Front.
"The western front, from the North
Sea to the Aisne. was the scene of
much hard fighting.
"The Germans carried out a num
ber of air raids against London and
Paris. Allied aviators raided German
industrial centers of the Rhine region.
In the Italian theater the arrival
of more hostile units and the concen
tration of m..terial coming from Ger
many is noted in the area east and
west of the' Lake of Garda, which
would point to hostile operations
having" Verona and Brescia as their
objectives.
In the eastern theater the chief
operation of the week culminated in
the capture of Odessa. The occupa
tion of Odessa will no doubt be of
economic importance to the enemy.
In Finland fighting continues.
German infantry has landed at Abo
and the arrival of important addition
al German forces on the Aland islands
is reported.

their lines 18 miles north of Jeru
