OF BATTLE

KEAK GUARD ACTION
ALL ALONG THE LINE

(Special vo The Daily News—2:30 P. mM.)

Paris, Sept. 15.— The French
official statement Says: “The
French troops have reoccupied
Amiens, which was abandoned by
the Germans, but the Germans
are making a stand near Aisne.”

The statement follows: “On our
left wing we have everywhere
caught up with the rear guard
and even with the main body of
the enemy. Our troops have re-
entered Amiens and the enemy
appear to be making a stand at a
prepared front along the River
Aisne. On the center it similarly
would seem as if the enemy in-
tends to resist. On the heights
northwest to north of Rheims in
the region between the Argonne
and the Meuse they continue to
retire. On our right wing we suc~
ceeded in relieving the front of
Tryono, which had been stubborn-
ly attacked the second time again
during the last few days. in Lor-
raine we are pursuing detach-
ments and keeping as everywhere
else in touch with the Germans.
The morale and Sanitary condi-
tion continue excellent.
