In Furious Fighting, General Man- gin's Men Sweep Germans Back on Front of 2 Miles and 600 Boches Are Taken, Prisoner. "WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN THE FIELD, Sept. 16. (Night, by the Associated Press.) French infantry men advancing in the hills between the AlBne and Ailette cut off from a retreat detachment of German pioneers In a cave. The Germans surrendered with suspicious seal. It was found later that they had just completed placing numerous mines in the cave Creeping on all (purs over plateaus and up ravines dotted with German quick-firers, the French are seeking Jhldden machine gun nests and reducing them with grenades. General Mangin'a troops are making one of the most courageous and most admirable fights of this war south of St. Gobain forest against what a high French officer has described aa a "natural citadel that men have been perfecting for four years." Xnmerous Prisoners Taken. The French made 600 more prisoners in this region today under conditions of difficulty which can scarcely be ap preciated except by persons on the ground. They gained a thousand yards over a front of two and a half miles, which would seem insignificant In proportion to the effort were the position less important. Every hundred yards of an advance made here weakens a pillar in the German resistance In St. Gobain Forest. An order signed by the general com manding a German division defending this position was found on a prisoner. The document pointed out how vital it was to hold the lines there. "If the height to the East of Laffaux remains In our hands," says the order, "It pre vents the enemy from obtaining a view of both sides of the canal from the Oise to the Alsne. If it falls into the enemy's hands, it gives him a most favorable point for future attacks. Han Divisions Mauled. "I expect," concludes the order, "that the division will be able here to main tain its previous reputation and will hold the position integrally against all attacks. Advancing from sbellhole to shellhole over ground that appeared from distance to be a giant face ravaged by smallpox. General Mangln's men de feated this crack division and five others that were put into a line over a front of 6', 4 miles between Allemant and Vailly. In doing so they conquered four caves and are at the. summit of the height from which the stone was quarried to build the city of Solssons. One of the caves measured 400 by 300 yards and has a dosen galleries through which an automobile can pass. An entire German battalion was made prisoner In one of the raves, while In another a Colonel with his entire staff wa staken. All the raves were defended by machine guns that were raised to the mouth of the cave. This sort of re sistance was particularly stubborn at the top of Mount Desslnges, where the French troops exterminated the garri son which belonged to the Fifth Prus sian Guard Division. They also occu pied the chateau northeast of Vauxail Ion definitely after it had been taken and retaken several times. . Mined Quarrlea Fooad All the stone quarries and caves that were not defended to the last by the enemy were mined before they were abandoned. Ten such mines were dis covered in time and rendered harmless. Wherever the caves were free of mines conclusive evidence was discovered that the Germans expected to hold them. Fifteen violent enemy counter at tacks were repulsed around, the quar ries before they were finally conquered. The French were obliged to contend not only with these fortresses cut out of solid rock, but with floods In the valleys to the north. Some of the troops fought 24 hours In water up to their knees. One battalion near Menne- Jean farm refused to be relieved after several attacks and counter attacks and consented to retire only when the farm was captured and considerable gains made to the east of it In this region the French are facing a part of the Hlndenburg line, which lready they have broken Into from he Mont de Singes to Vallly without he aid of tanks. This morning the French advanced 1000 yards at a single ffort, which is an enormous gain, con- Idering the obstacles met with.
