The French already bave taken about 6,000 prisoners, while the allied lines have enveloped within, the last twenty-four hours eleven villages and fifty square miles of French territory held until now by the Germans, The fighting lines extend between a great number of small villages which are usually devoted to textile Industries, while the outlying agri- cultural sections are' level fields, chiefly devoted to beet culture for the extensive sugar production. of France, Germans Are Deluded The intense bombardment of the last four days was the signal for an advance over those level fields, be- ginning at 7.30 o'clock yesterday morning The allied artillery 'then lengthened the range so as to shut off ali communication between the first German line and the German re- serves 'in the rear. This made it im- possible for the Teutons to utilize their perfect organization for the sifting of troops and for the bring- mg up of reinforcements, It is thought by French military "ob- servers that the Germans miscalcu- lated the intentions of the Entente allies and expected the attacks far- ther to the north. The villages which the French cap- tured in the first sweep include Dom pierre, Becquincourt, Bussus and Fay, and these and the towns taken by the British--Montauban and Ma- metz--were all found to have been strongly fortified by the Germans. Enemy Troops Routed The Allies, profiting from their ex- perience in the war, continually threw up strong earthworks around the villages thus taken, in order to protect them against counter-at- tacks.

Ceaseless British Barrage Fire London, July 3.--Reuter's corres- pondent at British Headquarters in France suggests that the compara tive feebleness of the German artil- lery response to the British bombard- ment arises from the same cause as the shortage of food in the German trenches, namely, the deadly charac- ter of the almost ceaseless British barrange fire which for the past week has hampered the German transport service He warns the British peo- "It was a thrilling affair while it lasted.

Already the French forces threaten Peronne with the evi- dent purposes of cutting the trunk railway there, which is an indispen- sable artery fof Gernman military re- inforcements, New German Stiategy In view of the terrific nature of the drive of July 1, it came as a sur- prise that prisoners: had not been taken by the tens of thousands. The explanation is that the French and British were not attacking trenches! similar to those in Champagne and | Artois. The Somme Valley positions were strongly held by a series of strong-holds, that is entrenched vil- lages, hillocks and blockhouses, which the Allies masked in their in- itial advance, sweeping on toward the German second line, The consequencce is that both the French and the British are now fighting two battles, one to reduce the imprisoned German garrisons, and the other to beat off the deter- mined German attacks to disengage their isolated comrades. Every hour that passes reduces the Tueton's chances of smashing this chain of fron rings which Generals Foch and Haig have drawn around the garrisoned villages, for the allies' artillery and reserves are well up.
