A A PARIS, Sept. 29, 6:20 a. mA.—.—The comparative calm -. on the French battle line yesterday after Sunday's storm A of shot and shell was aAsurpArise. It "was supposed that the extreme violence of the German attack meant a dcter— . mination to finish the campaign on the Aisne by breaking the allies’ lines at all costs and the pressure, it was ex— pccted, would continue, especially on the allies’ lefii, where the Germans had brought up reinforcements The center, however, was the only point seriously at; tacked, probably on the supposition that the line here has been weakened to reinforce the left. One theory is that the armistice of four hours granted by the French for burying the dead Was not sufficient and that. the invaders needed the entire day to get rid of the bodies encumb‘c aing the trenches, and another is that a further shifting or troops is in progress preparatory to a violent shock else- where, all efforts against the left having failed. ' In any case the Opinion is prevalent there that the Germans are losing valuable time, and that a return of the bad weather will perhaps. find them still burrowed the chalky clay of the Aisne district, and that they Will again be forced by invading floods to uncover them- selves: ,_ . , - - The military operations in the extreme east of the Vesges and 111 Algace have'bcen hindered by bad We ' as there' is on the heights snow and 111 the valleys fl I‘he Rhine is much Swollen, while the Dollar, ill and Thur rivers have overflowed.
