Hun armies in number of dangerous salient on Western Battlefront the Moat significant news from the Western front is that the Ger mans Are re thag on a wide front North and South of the la Bassee canal. This Section of their Lina lies just North of that town now in Allied Possession and Tieres. The retrograde movement is the logical outcome of the Advance of the British belgian forces East of Ypres and along the Lys Valley. That and the Extension of the Allied j Inea to Cambrai has had the effect of placing the Lens Armenti Erea front at the Point of a salient in which the germans win find themselves trapped As they were in the St. Mihiel salient by the americans unless they beat a speedy Retreat. Further North the British and belgian troops have maintained their Progress and have captured several More towns. Routers is momentarily expected to be occupied by the allies.

The depth of the Advance East of Ypres a Aheady such As practically to isolate the belgian coast positions from the remainder of the German front. British monitors Are heavily bombarding the District from the sea and a very slight further Adwa Rice will compel the Retreat of the germans from. Ostend. The same effect is being produced South of the new belgian front and the abandonment of Tieres Lille and Douai is ensured. Where along the entire front from Cambrai to Verdun the. Allied armies Are maintaining their offensive. The French have occupied St. and progressed to the eastward.

Occupies Damascus x in Palestine general Allenby has occupied Damascus taking Over prisoners arid securing the Junction of the Hejaz railway with the line from Beyrouth which town is in the Possession of the French cavalry under his command. The Endeavor of the germans to represent the action of Premier Malinoff of Bulgaria in concluding the military convention with the entente allies As lacking the support of the nation is discredited by the speech of King Ferdinand to parliament in which the Promise is made that a full statement of Bulgaria s position will be Laid immediately be fore the representatives of the people.
