For tho first time In this war of
nine nations, there Is ho mo concord
ance In the drift of the reports from
the headquarters of the three armies
holdlnfi the center of the stago In
France, which Is atlll the theater
where tho most Important operations
aro lu proRress. It Is, however, to
lie noted that corroboration by one
side of claims of tho other Is largely
negative. V
Freiirli Athance lUtieunl
"The French advances from Ver
dun and Toul havo been renewed,"
Is the German report of yesterday's
fighting the eastern end of the
line, ami communication of General
Joffre, commander-in-chief of the
French forces, agrees with It In the
statement that his troops "have made
alight progress" in that field.
At tho other cud of the CS0 mllo
lino the allies "aro holding their
own," Is tho report from the llrltlsh
headquarters and the llerlln an
nouncement seems Indirectly to ad
mit this claim by announcing that
tho battles on this end havo been In
dccUlve. In the center, tho French command-cr-lnclilef
claims slight progress. Ac
cording to anothor version of the re
port from tho Gorman headquarters,
tho French attacks from Verdun and
out havo been repulsed.
Significant AilioU-lon
Confirmation of a news agency
story that tho German right wing had
been broken and was In flight is still
lucking. Commentators show much
skepticism of tills report, although
thoy consider tho breaking of tho
Gorman right wing would bo only n
natural result of tho great turning
movement, tho present status of
which Ih pictured In tho French offi
cial announcement of yesterday. This
shows that tho allies havo pushed
back the Invaders lu the region until
tho Gorman wing Is virtually at right
angles with tho rest of tho lines.
Tho fact that tlio Gorman army
headquarters admit that their great
offortB to throw back tho pressure of
tho allies havo proved indecisive, Is
ivgardcd In Kuglaml oh significant.
