The Allied Attack. Enemy Front Broken.

Reuter’s Correspondent at British Headquarters wiring today [October 9] says: Yesterday’s victory yielded us besides prisoners, sixty square miles of territory and a great haul of field guns, trench mortars and machineguns. Moreover, important tactical results were achieved. The enemy has been thrust back into the open country beyond any continuous defensive works. Heavy counter-attack from the direction of Avion resulted in fierce hand to hand fighting. The enemy’s numerical superiority compelled us at first to give ground. A Naval Division took the strongly fortified village of Niergnies, capturing many prisoners.
