FERRIS Special Cable tn Evening Public Ledger CopurioM. tllK, bv .Veto York Time) Co. With the I'renrh Armle, June 10. A pew offense by the German army against the laws of war and common humanity U to bo recorded, or at least is alleged, In a letter found on the per son of a German officer made prisoner the other day. The writer relates his experiences at the beginning of the offenlvr. The ar tillery, preparation, he says, was effected by 3000 cannon. At 3 a m. exactly the assault began The oflloer continues: "At 3 15 we had passed the barbed wire and broke Into the enemy positions. From 3-.10 our mine throwers, dragged by French prisoners, climbed up the hill, and In two hours we had cut a way through tho enemy positions up to the Chemln-dcs-Dames. opening the way for the artillery " It Is not very long since the French and German Goernmonts arrived at an agreement, by which the French hae faithfully abided, that prisoners of war should not be employed1 within twenty miles of the front The Infamous breach of this agree ment, named aboe. would be incredible were It not peculiarly attested. , line rirnnnnt erne The Mnrne alley between Dormans and Kpernay and tho hills which rise from it to the Mountain of Tthelms pre sented, when I went up to see the Brit ish and French lines, a Feenc of rich, quiet beauty, in strange contrast to the hideous turmoil of war that has just passed over them and may break out afresh at any moment The steep-banked vineyards drank In greedily the hot sunshine. Tho vlltniros abandoned by most of their civilian in-' naDitants, out as yet undamaged, except on the actual front, drowsed as though the world" wore, awaiting only the reg ular harvest of wine and not an un speakable harvest of blood Tommies in khaki or pollus in light blue, bringing teams of horse; or supply wagons up from th valley through clouds of chalk dust, blinked on the verge of sleep, and I could not altogether bo surprised, regrettable as it Is. when a general told me he had difficulty In getting them to dig proper trenches. It maybe tlie 'same on' the other side of the jed line, but I doubt it. Tho almost complete silence of the guns is less singular than It would have been on the old fully intrenched fronts, for good objectives are rarer, but these Intervals are suspicious and Irritating for those In places of responsibility Men need rest after their sham effort. N'o less Is the need of preparation for ine inevitable next struggle. A distinguished French general, who had been more than once Intrusted with the critical task of reorganizing a broken line, and who has had much exnorlpnoi. of the co-operation of British and French troops, explained to mo the fighting around Bllgny on Thursday and Friday, and spoke In warm terms of the equal bravery of the units of the two nations under his command. The attack on Thursday, made by parts of three good German divisions, ex tended from Chanterelne farm, a mile northeast of Phamplat, northward along Eclirse wood and the high hill west oi Bllgny, and then northeast to Salute Kuphralse village, a front of four miles. By this time the Allied troops had been got In order, a French division held the right and the British nineteenth division the left. With the best will in the world differences In language and habit are not easy to overcome com pletely, and" it was therefore most satis factory to find that there was here com plete agreement and the happiest spirit of mutual confidence. According to prisoners, the aim of the enemy was to win by a strong local push an advance of a couple of miles, which would have given them favorable positions for a later essay tp reach the Marne. Attacking from the northwest to the southeast, the Germans captured Bllgny village at 8-15. but had no suc cess against the British sector. Re peated attempts to rush a hill to the west called the Mount of Bllgny, which overlooks the Ardre valley, were stopped by French artillery and machine gun fire. The Germans then massed In the val ley at both ends of Ecllsse wood, which they tried to carry. They were met and thrown back by a battalion of Cheshire. The left thus held, while the center had lost half a mile of ground, leaving the British on the Mount of Bllgny In acute salient crossfires. The position was abandoned shortly before noon. At 3:30 p. m It was stormed and recovered by Cheshire and Shropshire units, and about the same time the French on the right retook Salnte Uuphralse wood and Vlllers farm, and reached the edge ot Bllgny Village, which was 'wholly recaptured and the old lino re-established next morning. Foe' Catualllf. Ktldent There la good evidence of the heavi ness 'of the German losses as compared with those of the Allies, this being largely dlia to the effective work of the French batteries. ' In this action each of the Allied forces had to aid the other, and they came" out of It, as their officers testify, with new respect for and belief In each other and In their common command. For young soldiers repulsing the boche for the first time, the Nineteenth di vision did exceedingly well, earning praise from the Frepcn general in command for "a fine performance in trying cir cumstances." On the left of thla sector another French commander, who has had expe rience of the union of French and Brit ish troops In thojfield In Flanders, on the Olse and, now on' the' road to Ithelms. spoke in the same appreciative way of it. In Flanders, be said, there had been perfect entente. On the Olse, where he had' to support two British divisions, there was the "beBt camaraderie." He had just been lending a British com mander some, of his staff officers and had been distributing military medals r.nd war crosses to British soldiers. He mentioned particularly the service of the cyclist battalions. - A fiirtter German, attack between the VarnVand ilheirtuJs always likely, be ttatw tpTeacfc.'thajlverjjyould suppress - rtanatrnaa1 1 If M JtMr.ke combined MARINES' COMMANDER AT MARNE p , , --... - rw'Tr.'Ks:sr;2r".SRHc;K3?'! tmlTwood & Vndcrwooil General Harbord, commanding the American marine?, who have jut di'tinpuislicd themselves in llie heavy fighting on the Marne, is here seen at the right of General Perilling, commander-in-chief of the American forces in France MARINES IGNORE OBSTACLES IN BRILLIANT DASH AT FOE Hail of Machine Gun Bullets and Broken Communications Fail to Deter Americans Rush Beyond Objectives By EDWIN L. JAMES Special Cable to Evening Tublic Ledger CovvrioM. J.'IS, hv .Veto York Times Co. With the Allied righting Armies, June 7 ' (delayed). For the first tlmp in the world war American fighters for the last twenty- four hours have occupied the center or tho stage. On no part of any of the fronts has there been the same amount of fighting and tlu same success as In the nttacks made by American soldiers to the northwest of Chateau-Thierry The attacks were directed by American com manders and were carried out stalely by American soldiers. In very case our objectives were gained. Our losseB were not out of proportion to our gain". Enormous losses were Inflicted on the Germans, some of the captured terrain being al most coered with dead bodies. Wo took 200 prisoners. American losses In prisoners were almost nothing Despite their losses, which Included many offi cers, the fighting Americans are In the highest spirits, and are still hammering away at the German crack troops. The brunt of Thursday night's and Friday's fighting was borne by United States marines. A unit of marines by a long fight yesterday had prepared the situation when at 5'22 o'clock yester day afternoon orders were given to at tack with all vigor., pullnq.atha be ginning of the forward move rested on Veullly la Fcrterle and ran through Champlllon, through Lucy le Cocage to south of Triangle, and In an irregular line to Chateau-Thierry. As this Is writ ten our line runs Just south of the vil lage of Torcy, south of the village of Belleau, the woods of Belleau being In our possession: through .Boureschcs. south to the highway east of Thlolet, and thence to Chateau-Thierry. Bothered by Machine (limn ' The hardest fighting last night took place In the woods of Belleau, where the Germans had many machine-gun nests, which greatly hampered our ad vance and Inflicted many casualties. The quality of American leadership Is shown In the fact that the German fire cut almost all the lines of communi cation, destroying telephonic connection, but the Americana simply went ahead until their objectives were reached. In the woods of Belleau the Germans had filled the plateau with machine guns, about twenty or them. The Americans tried In vain to put thee out of com mission by rifle fire, mortar fire and hand grenacfes without success. Then, despite the streams of bullets, they sur rounded the plateau, cut off the Ger mans and went on ahead, capturing the hill beyond the woods and Inflicting extra heavy losses on the Germans while they were withdrawing. After capturing this hll the Americans moved on Bouresches, a large village and an Important point on the railroad. The men In the fight told mo they did not have great trouble in getting up to the town, but In the tops of the houses tho Germans had machine guns which drove back the attacking Americans several times. Finally Lieu tenant W C Robertson, with whom was left a platoon, penetrated Into the town under heavy German fire and cleared It of Infantry He held It for thirty min utes until two companies of Americans came to his aid They spent an hour routing out the boche machine gunners with rifles and hand grenades, when the ammunition began to run low. Brought Up Needed Ammunition A runner was sent out, and Lieutenant Donald Moore, a former Princeton ath lete, took a truckload of ammunition along the road toward Bouresches, Ger mans who had hidden behind the ad vancing Americans put him under a heavy fire, but he took the truck right Into the town and distributed the sorely needed ammunition. Then he brought the truck back. Commended for his bravery, he said he merely was lucky. In the meantime the Americans were clearing out the Germans from Bou resches, which the boches tried to hold by vigorous coulnter-attacks. Finally his resistance died down temporarily, and daybreak showed the Germans busy dig ging In north of the railroad tracks to the north. Infantry Alo In the Attark These two fights were staged by the, marines. Meanwhile American Infantry on tho right of the marines had ad vanced against the boche in a surprise attack, which was completely success ful. At first the too eager Americans founcf the going so easy that they advanced seven kilometers lmtead of four, as had been ordered. This led to a situation where lack ot sUaOport units on the right and left which had not advanced so far, forced them to withdraw to thq four-kilometer line.' However, In every case they got to where they ,were sent. Tne American attack all around was well planned and a complete surprise to the Germans. Our movement blocked the plans of the boche to make an attack on the Americans tomorrow, according to prisoners. These prisoners, to some of Whom I talked, said the Americans com pletely surprised their commanders. Wounded la Good Spirits The American wounded are In'-aood spirits. Many of them were '"earea1 for ii an r n- -nmpaii t; them what cigarettes I had. One young fellow Fald: "You know about the ma- rlnes being the first to fight. Well, I guess It's true now. We put' up some fight, and we licked Henry Boche. They ' got me. but It might be worse. Just look at that one over there. He can't even smoke a cigarette. I can." The more seriously wounded bore the ordeal well Most of those who talked expressed the desire to go home to get well, but wanted to come back again and finish the war. As this Is written the American artillery and Infantry are still going full blast, consolidating and bettering tho difficult positions. I was In the commander's office when a request came fnr artillery fire to blow the Germans off tho Belleau Plateau, where machine gunners were still pestering the Ameri cans The guns are now landing big shells on the plateau, which Is com pletely surrounded by Americans, de termined to avenge their comrades killed by those boche machine gunners. I think they already are avenged. Our men have showed a willingness to fight wherever they are put and under whatever commander, but they always hanker- for a fight under the Stars and Stripes with nn American commander. Most of the fighting by Americans has been done under French commanders up to now. When the units fighting on the Somme reported to the French high command tho French officers proceeded to place them among French soldiers In the positions where they were most needed. The commander of the unit to which the marines belonged expressed a keen desire to have his own sector and bos It. His results show that an American outfit which has had training Is at least as good as the best German unit. The results have made the Americans highly hopeful of the coming day when they can stage a big all-American show In the great Maine battle of the na tions the Americans so far have writ ten a glorious page In our history. On tho night of May 31 when the French withdrawal was still on and the day on which the Germans made their greatest advance. American machine gunners, after a thirty-six hour ride by motor from the training area, were rushed Into Chateau-Thierry, where German shock troops Were to hold four bridges guard ing the river. Three hours later the attack came. The Americans shot down every German who put his foot on the bridges and held the positions with ma chine guns hidden in the buildings along the Marne until French re-enforcementi came In the next day and blew up the bridges. On Sunday, June 1, the enemy made other attempts to cross the river on pontoons, but was prevented largely by the work of the Americans, supple mented by French artillery fire.

With the French Armies, June in. (midnight). The momentary calm on the French battle front, was broken by a terrific bombardment, opened by the enemy on the front between Montdldler and Noyon. Four hours later his In fantry attacked.. It was a repetition of the operations of March 21 and May 27. the second phase of the great battle that began a fortnight ago. That the new blow has fallen on this sector proves more than ever the truth of the theory that the Germans have reverted to tho classic prmclples of war In the attempt to obtain a speedy decision. As your correspondent staled In the early days of this battle, the first move was an attack, launched on a gigantic scale on the flank of the Ailed forces, grouped between Flanders and N'oyon It was developed, according to rule, by n change of direction In an attempt to roll up the Allied right. That failed. The logical course to take then was a hammer blow In the center. The Ger mans have followed It. As a result of the first fortnight of the battle there has been" on both sides a movement of forces southward. The village of I.a Ferte-Mllon Is the new middle of tho right wing of the prin cipal Allied forces: Complegne, Instead of Amiens. Is the center. According to tho little Information available at the time of cabling the Frfnch have met the German assault un flinchingly and have given ground slight ly on the center Attention has bfen drawn to the close parallel between the battles of May 27 and March 21. It is exact so far as the method of offensive and preliminary success are concerned, but the subsequent events were very different. In March, owing to divided command, the danger was far greater. As late ns tho Z7th the first French urmv had to be thrown head long Into action before Montdldler to (111 the cap between the French and British. To quote a semiofficial report, recently published In 1.,'Onlnlone: "For a whole week wo had to natch up a difficult situation and to modify our plans unccnblngly. Under the Imperious constraint of circumstances we had to engage In the struggle a regiment de- privcti pt tneir arm lery Nothing of the kind happened this time. The single, far-sighted brain di recting the Allied operation prepared methodically for the critical shock west ward. There was no desperate rushing of troops In position at all costs north of the Marne. Tho work was left to the divisions already engaged there. They did what was expected of them. Mean while the line of tho river itself was strengthened to form an Impassable bar rier, and then when the expected change of direction came the trumps were in Foeh's hand. The situation now proves his mas tery. Tlie comparative lull now broken means that the Germans failed In their central effort their real objective and were forced to pause In order to fill the gaps caused .by their terrible losses and regroup their thattered divisions.

It has been decided to refer the matter to a special technical com mittee. Doctor Tlosen.

In the meantime, however, vir tually the whole Dutch press regards It as absolutely certain that tho vessel was torpedoed, and a wave of anger has swept through the country. "The mad sea brute has done his noble work." says the Xleuw Courant. "Unless the German Government accepts full resppnslblllty for this crime, It Is In duty bound to name the Individual who was responsible for the murder of the personnel on board this neutral ship." Tho Xleuw Rotterdamsche Courant thinks there Is no room for doubt that the ship was torpedoed, and adds: "Deliberately to torpedo a hospital shin, tho movements of which are regulated by agreement between the belligerents and where absoluto safety was promised, ts a case of such far reaching untrustworthlness as even the present war had not produced.
