EMSIM Are Beginning to Show Effects of the Past Month's Struggle in Flanders ALLIES' SUCCESS PREDICTED SOON Staff Officer of Anglo-French Forces Says That Within Another Month Germans Will Be Driven From the Soil of France Paris, Nov. 17, 7 A. M.—The Qer nians, in the opinion of officers at the front, are beginning to show signs of the terrific strain they have undergone for a month past in Flanders and these officers expect that General Joffre's plan of holding the line and permitting the German host to wear itself out in vain 'but costly assaults will soon bear fruit. A staff officer, writing from the battle line, even goes so l'ar as to pre dict that within another mouth the al lies will be in » position to drive the enemy from French soil. The writer, however, admits that he is by nature an optimist. Details of Dixmude Fighting Some details of the taking of Dix mude, which the Germans still hold, but which thus far has brought them no advantage, have reached here. The capture of the town it appears was due to a mistake on the part of a French detachment. When the fighting started t'he Bel gians were entrenched north of the city, protecting the Keven road. To their right, turned toward the west in the direction of Essen were the Sene galese riflemen. To the south the French bulejackets occupied the most exposed position ou t'he Clerken road. The enemy opened a terrific bombard ment at 5 a. ni. on Tuesday last during which the admiral who was in com mand of the sailors and who was mak ing a reconnaisance, just missed being hit by the fragment of a shell. Firing on the Trenches The men waited patiently in the trenches. Toward 1 p. m. the cannon ading slackened and the dense columns of German infantry opened fire on the trenches. One column threatened to turn the Belgians, who overpowered by numbers retired on the outskirts of the city. They were followed by the Sen egalese who thought that an order for a general retreat had been given. This movement uncovered the blue jackets who, however, continued to hold their ground. While part of the enemy advanced on Dixmude by the Essen and Keven roads left open to them, the rest came at double quick for the sailors. Faced by the Prussian guard they were in danger of being surrounded! Undaunt ed, however, they dashed with the bay onet upon the Germans but were over whelmed by numbers and beaten back to the trenches. Asked to surrender they replied in the words credited to Heneral Cambroone at Waterloo when in simitar circumstances lie said: "The guard dies but never surrenders." Allies Obliged to Retire For several hours they held off the Germans who were four times as nu merous. charging their ranks every time thev came too near. Towards evening they were obliged to retire since their only means of re tieat, the bridge connecting the city with the country, was about destroved. They crossed the bridge under an aval anche of bullets with such magnificent heroism that the Prussians officers aft erward greatly expressed tlfeir admira tion. The fighting was resumed with ter rific violence in the streets, the blue jackets defending each heap of rubbish that had been a house, hut finallv re treating across the Yser. SUCCESSES OfIuSSIfINS AS SEEN THROUGH LENS OF CZAR'S GENERAL STAFF I'etrograd, Nov. 16.—A statement received from the general staff to-dav says: ' 'After our successful fighting in Oc tober along the roads to Warsaw and I vangorod the enemy 'began retreating toward his frontier, destroying the roads arid railroads. He set on lire the railroad stations and freight sheds, ! tore up switches and destroyed the res- ' eryoirs and water pipes. At some points on the railroad he blew up the rails and their fastenings, thus render ing necessary the use of new rails when repairing the tracks. "In addition, all bridges and aque ducts, even the smallest, were damaged as to make a passage impossible. The telegraph poles were felled, wires cut and insulators destroyed. All this dam age impeded our advance and aided the eneAj on the left bank of the Vistula to get outside our field of action and to get near his territory. "Taking advantage of this and theii> complete railway system, the Germans rapidly began to send their troops to the nort'h in order to accumulate impor tant forces against our wing. Their concentration in that region was cov ered by a large body of cavalry brought from the west and partly sup ported by the Austrian cavalry. "Towards the middle of November the German offensive was renewed be tween the Vistula and Warthe rivers. This resulted in fighting which is still going on on the front of Plock, Lent cbitsa and Oureioff. "In eastern Prussia, in the region of Btalluponenen, the enemy tried by means of separate bodies of troops to adopt the offensive, l>ut he failed and retreated. "In tJhe region of Soldau and Nei denburg the ibattle continues. We main tain our offensive toward Cracow and the front of Galicia. ''The attempts of the Austrians to make a stand on our road have been vain. In the fighting ~of November 13 we caiptured 10 officers and about 1,000 soldiers.'' HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT.
