HISTORY, The following graphic account Of the first sixteen days of the battle of Flanders appeared in the "Daily Chronicle" of November 2 from its special correspondent in northern France. Covering as it does practically the same period @s that described by Sir John French in the telegram published in this issue, it supplements that message in a manner which precludes any need of apologizing for its length.
The Battle of Flanders has now been in progress for just sixteen days. Though at the moment at! which I write the stupendous struggle cannot be said to have reached its conclusion, I think it may be safely stated that the result is no longer in any doubt, and that the situation can be summed up in concise form.
