Aug. 7. (Noon) The Hritish launch- j
ed a new attack south of Hupunme at ;
4:45 this morning with the prospect of j
unking the situation below that city
as precarious as it is above, where the
lino is actually beyond the city.
The New Zeilnndors aro on the north' j
cm outskirts of Bnpanme, having tak- j
en Baugnatre (two miles northeast of j
the city) during the night. They cap- i
tured prisoners from three battalions,
including a battalion commander.
At the same time, Hritish troops aro i
moving eastward along the Scarpe,
Highlanders on the north and Can a-!
dians on the south, taking advantage j
of vestordav's important gains. 1
The British last night swept down
the slopes of tlenenil (three miles north
of Croiselles) and oes the advanced
trenches of the old Hindcnburg line.
These they captured easily, but they
found the 'Germans holding hard in the
support lines.
The fighting below linpmimp is un
usually violent in places. The Oerintins
threw tho Kighty Seventh division into
Iiongueval Inst night, counter attack
ing and driving back the Hritish just
after the latter had scived the town.
This makes more than twenty divisions

old .Sonime battle field.
At 3 a. m. another six miles were
added to tho battle line in tho region
of tho Hcarpe. Hut this wns not a
surprise, as the Germans apparently hud
been expecting it.
The surprise camo when the moon
suddenly broke trough tho clouds a
bovo Grange hill, Chapel hill and tlio
landers surging to the attack.
Save when the moon appeared at
this moment, illuminating the earth,
the early morning advance was mndo
in the densest tlurkuss. The British

Tho Cnuadiuiia only recently wero
