GERMAN RETREAT CONTINUES,
FRENCH EMBASSY LEARNS

Continuance of tlio Gcrinun retreat
fectween the Argonne forest nml the

French Vnr Office through the

patch, sent from Bordeaux, reads:
On our left wlngr the Germans
resisted yesterday to the north of
the River Alsne, on a line formed
by the forest of I.uigne and Cra
onne. At the contie their lin of re
sistance was jesterduy north of
Itheims and the camp of Chalons
towards Virnno, a town nt tho
uostem border of the Argonne.
The forces of the enemy that
were occupying the south of tho
Argonne have nccentunted their
iiiQvement, retreating between tho
Argonno and the Meuso. Tlioy
were holding yesterday the front at

ALLIES' ADVANCE CHECKED
SAYS GERMAN WAR OFFICE
R3BL
' " " HEULIX. Stpt. 11.
The oillclal statement issued today
at the War Ofllco emphasize" the fact
that tho Germans have now succeeded
tn checking the entire ff.,lve move
ment of the allies in France.
It is stated that the German army
is now inttonched in new strong posi
tions, and that at a number of points
the Germans have succeeded in driv
ing the French-British lines back on
their supports.
So far ns the entire situation In
Franco is concerned the reports of the
General Staff all agree that the new
plan of campaign is working out In a
very satisfactory manner.
On both the east and west frontiers,
the report says, the German forces
are, currying out their general plan
of campaign with uninterrupted suc
cess. Tho reason for the withdrawal of a
portion of the German left wing is
declared to be the presence of a su
perior Kronen force. The operations
about Verdun, however, arc being
pressed, It la stated
Tho ofBcinl statement says:
Tho offensive movement of tho
allied British and French armies
In France haa been checked.
. "We hitvo won a number of suc
t ceases and hae occur I'd ationg
positions. Fighting continues, but
rn engagement ha taken place.
The rnrmy has been attacking with
superior numbers for two days our
right wing. A peveie contlict has
murked the operations about Ver
dun. The Admiralty announced today
that nil the crew of the cruiser Hela,
which waij sunk by a British subma
rine, had been saved. An earlier re
port from Admjral -Sehnk5"imd indi
cated there had been soma loss of
life.
Another official statement denies all
foreign reports of the rrogress of tho
war. It &ays:
We know from the present con
dition that wo shall fight to the
end. We did not expect a prom
enulc for our troops. "Hard fight
ing against hard opposition" Is our
motto.
Confidence prevails among the
Germans and the world is entitled
to know that there is no truth In
th talk of a French victory any
where. All other reports are false.
A definite German victory on
both frontiers caunot be doubted,
despite the big superiority of the
hostile- forces on both sides.
German soil Is freQ of her en
emies. The official report makes no men
tion of how far or to what line of de
fense the German right wing has retreated.
