Sir John French reports: The enemy yesterday afternoon attacked our trenches from the quarries to Hulluch. Our fire completely stopped an infantry attack across the open. A number of bombing attacks in tho neighborhood of Hohenzollern Redoubt and Fosse 8 were repulsed with very severe losses. The chord of the sailent which tho British have created in the enemy's line is 7000 yards in length, and the depth of the salient at the chalk pit is 3200 yards.
