WESTERN FRONT.
KEEPING UP GERMAN HOPES. FOR FAVORABLE PEACE TERMS. Received Nov. 1, 1.15 a.m. London, Oct. 31. Reuter's correspondent at British Headquarters, writing on the 30tb, statesthat copies of German orders and battle objective maps, recently fallen into our hands, show how complete has been the miscarriage of the enemy schemes. Great efforts were made to bolster the flagging spirits of the men by impressing thenr with the idea, that the more strenuously they fought tho better would be the. prospects for favorable peace terms. Thus, under date October 12. the follow-" ing document was issued:— "The High Command states the possibility of an armistice depends on the. battle coming to a standstill. Every gunner must carry out bin duty night: and day. The English must not cross theSelle. Our artillery must prevent them"."
