early today beiween Soicsmes and

good progress.
Field Marshal Haig Is increasing
also the'menace to Valenciennes,
thru tho western suburbs of which
t!.e Pr't'sh are fighting. North or
Valencifnr.es t.e c'.y has been out
flanked by the capture of Bruary. It
is not proba'e the Germans will be
able to ho'd out In Valenciennes
much lo..eer and once the Scheldt is
crossed here the British will be in
position to threaten seriously both
Mons and .Vauoeuse.
Closing In on Tournai
Between LeCateau and Solesmes
the British ar- on the high ground
east of the Selle river and it is
from this favorable position today's
attack was begun. The Germuti re
sistance here has been bitter n the
line is vital to tho security of the
German defenses over a wide front
to the south and aotithiwht.
In Boiithwt;mern Itelgium tho Brit

North of the town they havo forced a
crossing of the Scheldt whllo on the
south they have reached the western
bank of the river on a four-mile front
from Bruylles to Bleharie.
South of LeCateau the enemy in
resisting stubbornly French attempts
to cross the Serre river and take in
the rear the German positions east
of the Oise. South of the railroad
junction of Montcornet the French
have made progress between Nizy-le-Comte
and I-eThour.
