FRENCH BEAR BRUNT OF A NEW ATTACK [Continued Front First rage.] scene of some of the heaviest fight ing of the day, the Australians and English charging along this line sweeping over large number of Ger mans lying In shell holes who were overlooked In the semldarkness. Im mediately after the British troops had gone beyond these holes the Ger mans began sniping at the rear of the advancing forces. These snipers were eventually dealt w'th and the shell holes cleared. Th( morale of the German troops in this section is said to prove good and tl ey made a stiff fight for the positions which they finally had to relinquish. In the ruined village of Hollebecke the British were faced with large numbers of concrete dugouts which had no surface entrances but which were approached by tunnels. The attacking troops forced their way into these strongholds, which con tained large numbers of men, and blew them to pieces with bombs. This underground tunnel Is still filled with German bodies. Just north of Hollebecke two strongly held German positions were occupied without a stop. On the ground over looking Wytschaete the British en countered shell holes, camouflaged with wire netting and hedges which had been Interlaced with barbed wire. This delayed their progress some what, but did not save the Germans. Fierce fighting occurred here and the Australians who were conducting the offensive carried the positions with bayonets, killing latge numbers of the enemy. One notable incident of the day's fighting occurred on the Warneton- Gapard farm road at a windwill on a slight elevation. This place pre viously had been bitterly contest>rd because it overlooks the surrounding country, which is very flat. Aus tralians took t!|e place in the early morning, but the Germans regained It the same night. At midnight the Australians charged the position with bayonets and ejected the Germans after sanguinary fighting. La Bas seeville was also the scene of severe fighting, and here, as at Hollebecke, were found concrete dugouts which are now filled with their dead de fenders, who were bombed. ONE IS DROWNED WHEN BOAT UPSETS [Continued From First Page.] When about hall way across the river water oetan coming in over the e-urwales. In a few minutes the boat filled and began to sink. All of the men could swim with the ex ception of the negro, who shouted a few times fcr help and then sank from sipht. Rescuers say the men upset the boat In attempting to move. The men in the water were unable to help the negro. All of them were fully clothed ond did not even at tempt to remove their heavy coats. Shouted Many Times They say they shouted for help dozens of times, but onlookers either believed they were fooling or did nol want to give any assistance. Roy Borry was taken from the water ex hausted and hurried to the hospital. The other 3 reached shore unaided. The drowned man continued strug gling until he reched the Cumber land Valley bridge, where he sank. A guardsman saw him disappear and showed Gibbons wnere he thought the body was. It is said that Sanders has relatives In the city, but at a late hour no one had turned up who knew him. Body ITnrecovered The body of Fred Moore, who drowned yesterday afternoon, had not been recovered at a late hour to-day. Moore, who lived at 612 Market street, was attempting to swim from the island to this shore when the storm, struck him. He was unable to buffet the waves and cried for help when near shore. Eye-witnesses say that a canoe with two occupants, although within a few feet of him. hurried on to the shore, fearing lest their own craft sink in the waves. ChArles Reedy, who was swimming near by, was un able to give him any assistance. Moore sank before help could reach him. He is not known to have had any relatives except a sister In Bal timore.
