LAST OF HINDENBURG SYSTEM COMPLETELY BROKEN.
ENEMY EXHAUSTED AND IN DANGEROUS POSITION. Australian and • N.Z; Cable Association. LONDON. Oct. 11. , £he British success on October 8 lies in the fact that it has completely broken the last line of the Hindenburg system, constituting the main pivot of the enemy's whole defensive between the River Meuse and the sea. , It also turns the enemy's rear lines of defence constructed between the River OiBO and the Argonno. Vhen the enemy is driven from his present position in the Champagne and on the Aisne there will be no line of defence where he can reorganise or rest his troops. How far-reaching the results will be will depend on the weather and the enemy's morale. His troops are greatly exhausted. The enemy's situation is now most dangerous.
