FRENCH PLANES LEAD
ATTACK ON GERMANS
Twenty Armed Machines Charge
Foo's Lines on
Somme
PAniS, Sept. it.
For the. first time In the history of tho
world the French used an aeroplane squad
ron to lead tho successful attack on the
village of noucharesnes, north of the
Somme, It was learned today,
Twenty fast armored aeroplanes, each
mounting three machine guns, one pointing
forward and two downward, charged the
German lines before the French Infantry
left tholr trenches.
Flying high above this charging air col
umn were French aviation omcers who
directed tho attack several hundred feet
below In much the same manner that an
omcor directs an Infantry charge from a
sheltered dugout.
The French flyers swooped low over the
German lines as the artillery fire lifted and
raked the German trenches with a murder
ous nre. Prisoners report that this form of
attack had n remarkable effect upon the
Germans who had surUved the artllterylng
and were awaiting In their half-ruined
trenches tho coming storms of French In
fantry. It sent them flying In panic down
communicating trenches, and In some In
stances caused many gun crews to desert
their posts.
As tho French Infantry came on with a
rush the air chargers drove forward to the
second phase of their work. They flew
along tho roads, turning their machine guns
on German reserves being brought Into ac
tion along the roads leading to Boucha
vesnes. This new use of the aeronlanea nrnvri r
successful that It Is expected to play a most
Important part In futuro operations of the
war. Brjtish flyers apparently used the
same method successfully In the British
advance against the Germans Friday.
200 VILLA OUTLAWS
SHOT AFTER BATTLE
Carranza Leader Rounds Up
Bandits Following Chihua
hua City Attack
CHIHUAHUA CITY. Sept. 18. Firing
squads today continued their execution of
bandits who were rounded up ln different
sections of the city, following the battle
that occurred Saturday, when Francisco
Villa tried to capture the Carranxa base.
According to statements made at General
Trevlno's headquarters more than 200 of
the brigands hae been shot. As Villa suf
fered a loss of nearly !00 In the battle that
followed his attack on the city, Carranza
omcers assert that fully a third of the ban
dit leader's command has been wiped out.
Villa himself, with the remainder of the
beaten bond. Is understood to be In retreat
toward the Tarral region. Carranza cavalry
Is In pursuit, but there Is little hope here
that "Pancho" will bo captured.
General Trelno. who was wounded In
the shoulder, remained at his pot today.
Shortly after midnight he made a 'tour of In
spection throughout the city nnd questioned
seral of the prisoners.
The Carranza authorities bellee that
Villa was assisted by traitors In tho city
or by followers who hae come In disguised
as peons and armed with weapons that were
smuggled through tho Carranza guards.
