The Soldiers are anxious to return to the fight, but say the Boer War was a picnic as compared to this. In the House of Commons Mr Asquith deprecated the sensational and unconfirmed article in the Times, concerning the conditions of the British troops, and said it may be possible that necessary drastic legislation would be introduced to prevent a recurrence. The House of Lords decided the .moratorium shall continue. Reliable. —The German forces are in the region of La Fere, seventy miles from Paris. (La Fere is at the confluence of the Serre and Oise. It is strongly fortified and has an arsenal and barracks, It was successfully bombarded by the Germans in 1870. Population over 5000.) The French Army of 150,000 repelled the Germans east of Guise.
