AN EXTRAVAGANT TIME-TABLE
(reuter's telegram.)
PARIS, 16th July. A semi-official message states that "orders found on prisoners show that the Germans expected to reach Epernay on the evening of 15th July, Chalons-sur-Marne on 16th July, and Sezanne (nearly forty miles south of Reims) on 17th July. They employed from thirty to thirty-five^ divisions. Owing to heavy losses the shock divisions, instead of being relieveu in the evening, were sent back during the morning to bo reformed. Hundreds of German dead are hanging on our barbed wire, and numerous enemy tanks strew the ground."
