Paris, Dec. 2.
A communique issued here today states there was nothing of importance to report during the night on the Western Front—Reuter, German Activity Along Moselle London, Dec. 2.
Great activity by German troops along the River Moselle and a portion of the River Sauer forming the German-Luxembourg frontier is reported from Brussels. Infantry, cavalry and motor transport are said to be continually on the move, while soldiers and workmen are busy on the fortifications.
Persistent rains in the past week have caused new floodings, and in many points, German barbed-wire entanglements are inundated. Patrol operations are daily observed between the villages of Perl and Apach by Luxembourgers from Schengen.
A German attempt, heralded by artillery fire, to raid a French post east of the Moselle was easily beaten back by a French counter-barrage before it could get near its objective. German artillery was also active south of Saarbruecken, Air forces of both sides have been kepi to the ground because of continued bad flying conditions.—Reuter.
