Chattanoourt, under the most violent
attack the oldest veterans' had ever
experienced, it was officially admitted.
By oounter attacks at midnight, bow-
ever, the French regained losses south j
of Cumieres. '
What is termed the most Intense
fighting of the entire campaign raged
on the northwestern front throughout
yesterday. It grew more furious
toward nightfall and was continuing
early today. Between the Meuse and
Deadman's hill. Germans repeatedly at
tacked on a front of two and one half
miles. The desperate charges were
shattered again and again until the
trampled turf was littered with man
gled bodies.
Betreat to Cbattan court.
Meanwhile German batteries sent
cores of high explosive shells into the
French defenses, leveling a first line
trench, which naturally was aban
doned. South of Cumieres the German as
saults were so violent that the French
relinquished their works west of the
river and retreated along the railway
to Chattancourt station, half a mile
east of the village.
Taking shelter behind the embank
ment, they fought along the railway
all afternoon. At twilight the French
bugles sounded "Charge" and the de
fenders left their shelters, meeting
the Germans bayonet to bayonet, send
ing them back the way they had ad
vanced. A German detachment which
managed to reach the Meuse was sur
rounded and annihilated.
Germans who penetrated trenches
east of Seffers In Alsace were oustel
by cdunter attacks.
