Germans Resist Fiercely Late toâ€"day it was reported thai the Germans had begun a heavy eounâ€" ter attack at the point where the alâ€" lied forces join. The German front line trenches, which had been torn to piece by the preliminary bombardâ€" ment, offered little resistance, but once the allied forces had penetrated beyond them they met with fierce reâ€" sistance at many points. Directly east of Zillebeke and again a littlo to the north the British were temporarily held up by a heayy machine gun fire, but only temporarily, for the #roops charged through the rain of lead and forced the Germans from their po#iâ€" tions in handâ€"toâ€"hand fighting. ‘ mans. One of the most striking and speeâ€" tacular events of the day‘s fighting occurred at the soâ€"called Menin Tunâ€" nel, an anderground fortification eonâ€" structed by the Germans on the Menâ€" in road opposite Hooge. The British preliminary' bombardment had forced the Germans to hold the French line thinly here, and the British division which was to attack at dawn lay out all night in shell holes within twentyâ€" five yards of the German line, waiting for the signal to advance. When the time arrived for the charge, and the British gunners had dropped a proâ€" tecting barrage on the German front trench ahead of the British troops, it was seen that the Germans had taken to their heels and were fleeing. The British, seeing their prey °89â€" caping, went mad and charged diâ€" rectly through their own barrage, forâ€" tunately without heavy casualties. The Menin Tunnel, which was expected to be occupied by several hundred Gerâ€" mans, was found to be held by only 41, the rest having retreated. £ m ie mone o h in rromcadeninne se ue aenrecnt It was only at the second line that the British met resistance, and here, after sharp handâ€"toâ€"hand fighting, they forced the Germans to withdraw. Stream of Prisoners No check has yet been made on the number of German prisoners capturâ€" ed, but they are flowing in in a steady stream back of the British lines. Many of those captured at the Menin Tunâ€" Again, at a redoubt which was strongly held in the German line and defended by concrete fortifications,the British were brought to a standstill by machine gun fire. But they charged with bayonets and dislodged the Gerâ€" .30 ..$19.75 FRIDAY. AND SATURDAY August 3 and 4 .

Weekly 715 WATCH THE WINDOWS The tanks again played a prominent ‘part in the opening of the battle, and reports from all sections of the Britâ€" ish front say that their work has been most satisfactory. Larga numbers of these monsters were employed, and in many cases pursued their destructive and uncheckable way to a distance far within the German lines. me! and other points are mere boys. Knemy Demoralisefi Further information obtained from German prisoners concerning the efâ€" feets of the British preliminary bomâ€" bardment indicates that the effects of this unparalleled expenditure of amâ€" manition were disastrous in the exâ€" treme, both in damage and to the morale of the German troops. Within the past few days six Bavarian diviâ€" sions were withdrawn from the line and replaced by fresh troops, because they were so thoroughly demoralized by tke inferno of fire which they had undergone. Photographs taken by aviators back of the German lines show that there was scarcely a square yard of territory along their front which was not devastated by the high explosives. It is small wonder, then, that the Germans were holding their front line thinly and were swept back when finally the time arrived for the allied infantry to do its work.
