Germans were still clinging to their secret strongholds among the ruined buildings, and that British guardsmen also were hidden among the cellars at various points.But for the most part Fontaine Notre Dame was a place of the dead ; they lay about the streets to tell the story of the cruel tragedy enacted about them.German prisoners from the third guards division and 48th regiment were in the British cages this morning as a result of the battle, and among the captives was a battalion commander, who w'as caught with many of his men in the rush of the British through the village.In addition to the five hundred taken in Fontaine, upwards of one hundred were captur- ; ed in the fighting yesterday in the j vicinity of Bourion Village, where I witl English troops, co-operating tanks, made some advance.Tanks also were employed in tht assault on Fontaine, and it was behin< these great engines that the Britisl guards battled forward until the\u2019 reached the eastern side of the vill age.GERMANS LOST FONTAINE A German counter attack witl fresh corps which resulted in th British being pushed back througi tiie hamlet gave the enemy a chanci to consolidate the place, but, as hai been stated, the Germans were unable to remain in Fontaine in force so that to all intents and purposes they lost Fontaine, although the Brib ish did not gain it.FIGHTING VERY SEVERE AT BOURLON The fighting at Bourion Village was very severe.The English begai their attack about this place in th< face of extremely heavy machin* gun and rifle fire.Bourion wai strongly held and was crowded witl rapid firers, which held all the approaches.Tanks worked to the southeast of the village and drove a hoi* in the enemy defences.Here thej were closely followed by the infantrj The machine gun outposts, however, was beaten off, and this morning th* British appeared to have a footing it the southern outskirts of the village.A heavy machine gun and rifle fin was proceeding today throughout this section.ROMP NU,-\tL l\t-ii r i\t.\t; officially reported admitted to second Lieut-Col.Campbell Stuart.ino\\.- 7.Meavy artillery hghting is in progress field ambulance depot on November That Japan is attaching consider- j 16 suffering gas poisoning.\t¦ able interest to the Conference is in- Pte.Macrae went overseas with the ! dicated by^ the fact that in addition \u201d\t.n Matsui, Am- Û destructive fire at enemvlious to enli3tiug worked in the Rand | bassador to France.Kumaiaro Hondo, .rucute r^e at enem> shops.His brother.Pte.K.W Mae-1 counsell\u201dr v'° the Embassy, and four rae, who went over with the Tl7th I othfr Japanese are watching the pro- Battalion was killed in action on the I ce^ng®,' .\t.,\t,\t.Ine Conference will be held m all along the front, but no further infantry actions of import- , r ance are reported by the War Office today.On the lower ilrPh -Canadian Rangers, and prev- j Bar°n Chinda, Baron Piave river Italian batteries directed \u2019\t\u2018\t\"\tI*\u2014\t- , i boats.FORMER VIGOR OF ATTACK LACKING AGAINST I ITALIANS\tfront.IT AI Ta NJ * HEAD Q l ' A*R TE RR IN !
