Under cover of log and mist, which have been partiâ€" cularly heavy in the last 48 hours, the Germans carried ovt the greatest oreâ€" tirement they have made on the wesâ€" torn front in the last two years, and the British have swopt into possession of Pys, Serve, Miraumont and‘ Petit Miraumont, including the famous Butâ€" teâ€"deâ€"Warlencourt, which has been the seenc of some of the fiercest fighting of the war, and in places is deep with the bones of dead men. The exact extent of the German reâ€" tirement is not known toâ€"night, but it is estimated that it approaches a depth of three miles at some points. Britâ€" ‘sh patrols are out in all directions, rarassing‘the Germans and keeping in touch with their movements.~ Untif they report it will not be possible to say just where the Germans have deâ€" Wiii Ssen Have Bapaume.

Feb. 27. â€"Official despatches confirming the reports of the deaths of Americans on the Laconia, rorpedoed without warning, &ltabli.hed the case as the "Overt act." The situation however, was unchanged from where the Pres‘dent left it yesterday when he asked Congress for authority to deal with the submarine peril. President Witson and the State departâ€" ment officials took the position that no further step wou‘ld be taken until Conâ€" gress has had an opportunity to act on the President‘s request. The view prevailed that the sinking of the Laconia should hasten the action by Con: gress.

WHILE GONGRESS DELIBERATES MET BY THE BRITISH TROOPS There were bursts oi stiff resistance from German obstructing parties which had been scattered in the rear of the retivring columns. Early toâ€"day a big mine was exploded in the main street of Miraumont just before the British advanced patrols entered. Points which already have fallen into the British hands have stood out _ in the history of the fighting on this front, and had been most stubbornly defended. Only a week ago when the British attacked on a twoâ€"mile front east and south of Miraumont and Pys the German resistance was bitter and the ground won only after desperate handâ€"toâ€"hand encounters and the takâ€" ing of more than $00 Germans prisonâ€" The British had hbeen waiting for a clearing of the foggy weather before pressing the advance, but meantime it is apparent that the German high comâ€" mand decided to retire without any fitrther fighting to the stronger posiâ€" tion prepared well to the rear. The foggey, misty weather was igeal for the beginning of the German reâ€" tirement, as it completely bid the purâ€" pose of the movement from the prying eyes of the airplanes, which otherwise would have daily searched out the Gerâ€" man positions. tite larze«t house in the World dealing exclusive‘y in Amoricen Raw Fur®, where you will always receive en Ascareve and 1\berat A: sor ment, thaBiphoat Market Prices ard the veu l ‘‘Rhubert"‘ Eifcient, 25.27 WEST AUSTN _ AVE. lnc.
