English, Scotch, Irish and Welsh Troops Make One of Most Spectacular Raida of the War, Complete- ly Surprising Germans. Stupendous Tank Drive ef General Byng Has. Wrecked the Plan of the Teuton High Command to Rest In the West London. The great Ilindenburg defense line upon which the German commander In chief had bullded his Inhopes of holding the British from beyond, roads Into the open territory has been smashed. Xnd the task apparently was anjeasy one. Attacking on Wednesday over a front of thirty-tw- o miles, extending from the Searpe river east of Arras to SL Quentlp, Field Marshal Haig, with !hls English Scotch, Irish and Welsh troops, has made one of the most rapid and spectacular drives of the war, catching the Germans completely by surprise, capturing numerous positions regarded' as Impregnable, and taktng thousands of prisoners and numerous guns. The apex of, the offensive apparently 1 centered on the Important railway Junction of Cambrai, midway between Arras and St Quentin. Here, haring taken the towns of Marcolng, Anneux, Gralncourt and Novel leg, the victorious troops at last accounts were nearing Cambrai, with Its railroad lines and roadways branching out toward all the main points of the compass. The British drive was begun without the usual artillery prelude, and ns the tanks and Infantrymen made their way through the wire entanglements and pressed into the German first position, the surprised enemy began sending up myriads of signal rockets calling for assistance. Whether Md was rushed up is not definitely known, but seemingly the surprised Germans fled In disorder, leaving all kinds of equipment behind add in most .cases did not even take time, as usual, to apply the torch to villages they evacuated. An indication that the Germans fortified line has been passing by the British at some points Is the entry of the cavalry Into the fray. Not since the famous retreat of the Germans along the Ancre and the Somme In the spring of the present year have the horsemen been engaged. At that time they performed valiant service In harassing the retreating columns and in rounding up prisoners. The British casualties were extremely light, while German dead covered the ground. Reports Indicate that the deptfi of penetration In the region of Cambrai has exceeded five miles, and that at orife point at least the troops swept on five miles beyond the German lines, capturing additional- Villages. The offensive was under direct command of General Sir Julian II Byng, and General John J. Pershing, commander In chief of the American forces la France, was an Interested observer.

In the rags of the Ilindenburg line, Germany is fighting to save the fruits of her one great offensive of the year on which she had Staked all. From every part of the western front Hidnenburg is drawing every available, handful of reinforcements to restore the line that bore his name, the line that was to hold until Russia and Italy are disposed shell-rake- d, tank-swe- pt of." While Ilindenburg was In the act of disposing of Italy, following hK Midden smash on the Tsonzo, and his tanks came along and the Ilindenburg surprise and now the Teutons are between this devil In the west and the unfinished Italian Job In Venetia. To draw reserves from the Have or Trentum fronts would spell doom to the enterBingo-Byn- g prise there, already threatened by the Italian resistance. It Is a question of leaving the west front to take care or itself. German Troops Summoned. So from Yerdun, from th Chamever-stiffenin- g pagne, from the Alne, from Flanders, Ilindenburg is drawing troops, troops and more troops, perilously thinning his fronts In those sectors, In any of which Petain or Haig may strike a blow at any hour. That stupendous tank drive of General Byngs and Its dogged continuation have wrecked the fond plan of the Teuton high command to rest la the wrest this winter and when spring enme n to throw the huge forces from Italy and Russia agnintst the armies.
