Americans Shelled Americans In the Cantlgny sector were violently bombarded with gas shells, high explosives ana shrapnel. The enemy used trench mortars extensively as usual, but the Americans escaped the fierce hand-to-hand fighting that was experi enced farther eastward on the line. It appears from tho developments of the last thirty-six hours that the chief local objective of the Germans is Com plegne, which Is now less than ten miles fiom the zone of battle. Compiegne Is a town of high strategic value on account of tho lines of com munication (railway and highways) which converge there. The city lies at the confluence of the Olse and Alsnc rivers and Is forty-five miles from Paris. Foe's Forces Enormous The German Crown Prince has em ployed enormous forces since ho opened this latest drive on Sunday morning. It was estimated that more than seventeen divisions (approximately 205,000) have been thrown Into the battle. Without usbng any of his reserves, General Foch's bravo troops have been able to stem the German rush and last night It was held particularly at a stand still. In the Initial stages of the new battle the Germans were able to extend their lines from two to four miles, but as the Germans continued their pressure they found Allied reslstence getting stlffer and stlffer. Foes New Objectives The strategy which prompted German atacks In a new theatre, n their efforts to break through toward Paris, evidently arose from a desire to widen the base of the German salient,' to flatten the bulge In the French front between the Picardy and Alsne-Marne fighting zones and to shorten the German lino between Mont dldler and Chateau-Thierry. Tho Americans were on the alert, awaiting the possible development of a frontal attack In the Cantlgny sector. The enemy employed the same Intense bombardment with trench mortars as marked the preceding three drives, to make more effective their Infantry at tacks, but at the same time they em ployed countless machine-gun squads for infiltrating the Allied positions In an effort to enfilade the flanks. Preliminary shelling has been carried out chiefly with gas shells, the deadly fumes drenching the forefleld' positions and rendering them dlfllcult to defend. I.omlos, June 10. "A hostile attack in the Aveluy wood last evening, was repulsed," Field Mar shal Halg reported today. "We conducted a successful raid northwest of Bethune yesterday." Compiegne, toward which the Germans aro trying to advanco down the Olse River, Is one of the most historic towns In France, but Is badly marked by the scars of battle. It was overrun by the Germans In 1914, but after the retreat from the Marne the French made It Into a base. It contains an ancient abbey, the burial place of the early kings of France. The French court often sat there In tho olden days. It was In Compiegne that Joan of Aro was captured.

PERRIS Special Cable to Evening Public Ledger Cop'vrlaht, 1918, 01 New l'orfc rimes Co. With the French Armies, June 10. A new phase of the German offensive opened at 4:30 o'clock yesterday morn ing on a front of about "twenty miles, extending from Montdldler to Noyon. Tho artillery preparation, which again was rich in gas shells, began at midnight and covered not only the front, but a deeD zone behind It, especially villages and roads whero the enemy thought to ,, eaten tne rencn local reserves. There were evident reasons for the choice of this sector, and in particular for seeking control of part of It. for a Kiirrtssful nush south along the line of "the Roye-Complegne Railway would add another converging roaa 10 tne xour roads leading toward Paris by the Olse, Alsne, Ourcq and Marne Valleys, which had already been tried. On the other hand, the enemy could not reasonably hope for any such surprise as was ob tained In tho first act of the offensive, St Quentln, and in the third act of that on the Chemln-des-Dames. In general, the French are resisting with dogged courage In their covering positions, which are beyond the range of the enemy mine-throwers. Evidence accumulates of the heavi ness of the German losses in the recent fighting and or tne disappearance or tne shallow enthusiasm with which the of fensive was begun. In other parts of the battlefield we continue to hear of local actions. Moral, like material, factors weigh increasingly on our side, and, therefore.

The offi cial War Department summary of American casualties to date amounts to 7389, Including the seventy-four reported today. The total casualties aro divided as follows: Killed in action 1046 Died of wounds 815 Died of disease 1193 Died of accident and other causes 394 Wounded In action 4099 Missing In action (including prisoners) 342 Total 7389 tween Montdldler and Noyon carried the Germans forward to a maximum depth of about three miles In the center, while the wings, as In their previous drives, were held with unimportant gains. It was Indicated by the night official reports. The greatest penetration was made at Ressons-sur-Matz and Mareuil-la-Mott. where the Germans obtained a foothold, the French War Office said. On the v west, the enemy reached Rubescourt, Lefretoy and Mortemer. On the right they reached Belval, Cannectancourt and Vllle. Berlin's Claims Referring to this attack the German War Office announced "West of the Olse we have captured the height of Gury and adjoining enemy lines." Gury Is two miles north of Marull-la-Motte and represents an advance of only a mile. The German artillery preparation ex tended around Montdldler to the north when the drive began early Sunday morning, but no Infantry attack devel oped In that region. Field Marshal Halg also reported enemy artillery fire above normal from south of the Somme to Al bert, but In a later report said "there is nothing of Interest to report on the British front" Regarding the American successes northwest of Chateau Thierry, Berlin said; "Americans who attempted again to attack northwest of Chateau Thierry were driven back beyond their positions of departure, with heavy losses, and prisoners were taken." Allies Prepared The new blow in this region has been predicted by military observers for a couple of weeks. Tho latest German thrust found the French fully prepared. In this attack, which began on Sunday morning, the German Crown Prince hurled seventeen divisions Into the bat tle as well as numerous reserve troops. (A German division Is estimated to con sist of from 11,000 to 14,000 men). Encircling Move Seen The present drive on the Montdldler Noyon front, according to military crit ics, constitutes the northern arm of a vast encircling project aim against Paris. This movement, starting from Ave, In the region of Montdldler, and being pushed forward southward as far as possible toward the capital, would co ordinate with a southern enveloping at tack from Chateau-Thierry, thus seek ing to envelop the American and French troops between Montdldler and Chateau Thierry. The Germans still have a minimum - 1 - , .. . ..t:.. ui uuoui niiy unengaged divisions (GOO.OOO men) for their present effort purpose of linking up the Montldier salient, created by the Germans In their March offensive, with tho Chateau Thierry salient, created during the last two weeks' advance. Unless the Ger mans can strlthten out their line be tween these tfro pockets, further ad vance along either one will be exceed ingly difficult. Sunday's attack, launched by General von Huber. followed the same tactics which characterized the boches' preced ing offensive efforts. They made the initial gain through a surprise attack by concentrating troops far In the rear and rushing them up during the night. Then following a brief but intense bombardment from midnight until 4:30 In the morning, during which gas was used extensively. thfGerman Infantry men leaped to tne assault 111 successive w a es. Despite the Huns' efforts to secrecy and their use of gas, French artillery was able to maintain a counter-nreuara. tlon throughout the enemy bombardment, while French Infantrymen, falling back under the first Inevitable shock, put up Ihfli first definite resistance In their coerlng zone. Just outside the range of the Germans' mounted trench mortars. The desperation with which the Ger mans launched their new assault Is In- fdlcatlve of their realization of. the abso lute necessity of ending tne war before America's full strength Is Intervened. This realization unquestionably has been hastened by the discovery during the recent offensive that American troops are able to cope victoriously with the best Germany can produce. The Germans attacked with their average density, concentrating their fieri cest efforts along the valley of the Metz midway between Noyon and Montdldr with the evident Intention of nensff atlne alons: the Matz to Its 'Junction with the Olse, In the vicinity or uompiegne. NEW REPULSE OF FOES REPORTED BY PERSHING Washington, June 10. Repulse Sunday of another German attack northwest of Chateau-Thierry was reported today In General Pershing's communique. "Northwest of Chateau-Thierry the enemy made a fresh attack during the night on our positions In the vicinity of Beuresches." the statement said. "The attack, which was preceded by artillery nrenaratlon and accomnanied by heavy machine-gun fire, broke down with severe losses to the assailants. In this region, and In Picardy there was lively artillery fighting. marked by decreased artillery activity." un me iiarne pcwiui nw u n wvvv shHk i;Bt ' rT'-wmf. p.v.v.;;:ri.:,.rav MV'A''iV sBaw--- SUBMARINE RAIDS VAIN, SAYS GEDDES Sea Lord Believes U-Boats Driven .Here by De feat Abroad CALLS STRATEGY FUTILE London, June 10 "It is too early yet to forecast what the presence of German submarines off the American coast may portend," raid Sir Eric Geddes, First Lord of the Ad miralty, in an interview today. "On the one hand, It may be merely a sporadic raid similar to that carried out by tho U-63 earlier In the war, or 1 11 may do me Beginning of a serious submarine campaign oil the American ! coast, "The vigorous and successful British anti-submarine campaign in our waters has made submarine operations very costly to tho Germans, and perhaps they calculate on getting better results along me Amciican coast. In tills, hoeer, tliey will undoubtedly be disappointed, since nil our ixperlence ocr here has been placed without reservation at tho tervlce of the American Administration, which will thus be able to base its anti submarine nvMsires on practical re sults. "There Is no Indication that there has been a sudden Increase In the number of enemy submarines. On the contrary there Is no doubt we aro sinking subma rine"? faster than the Germans are build ing them." , Submnrlne Strategists Outwitted In re'ponc to questions, Sir Eric then outlined the comse of German subma rine suaicgy fcliKe the outbreak of the ,var. "At first the submarines operated fifty miles or so from the British coasts," he said. "After a time our defenses in that Motility became too good for them to combat and they were forced to within ten miles of the coast, whero for some time they managed to sink a number of coastwise and unattached and un convoyed merchantmen. Again our de feases overcame them and forced them to operate f.ir out at sea, whereupon wo Introduced the conoy system and foiled them once more. Now they are trying the same thing oft tho American coast, where they will be defeated by the same tactics as over here." Sir Eric pointed out that there Is some advantage In forcing the submarines to operate farther from the German bases. "The longer they have to travel to reach the operating zone, tho less fuel and supplies they will have and con sequently the less time they will have to spend In the operating zone." In reply to a question regarding the type pf submarine operating In American waters, tho First Lord declared: "Possibly a submarine of the con verted Deutschland typo is being used. I do not believe she Is of the muoh talked of giant submarine type, but is probably of a type with a ong cruising and operating radius." Doubts Submarine Base Here Sir Eric said it is possible the Ger mans might hae been able to establish a fuel depot on the American coast at some Isolated point, dui ne aoes nui believe a submarine base has been es tablished "A submarine base means more than a fuel depot," ,he said. "It Includes a dock. After a submarine has been out for three weeks It usually needs over hauling. It Is pretty dlfllcult to estab lish such a base on a hostile coast. There would be much more chance of establishing It on a less carefully guard ed neutral coast." Geddes thought It was difficult to say whnf classes of shins submarines would attack In future, but believed any at tacks on American troop transports would inevitably rebound against Ger many by increasing Americas determi nation and addlncr to the severity of her fighting. He plainly Indicated his be lief this Is the last desperate phare of German submarine policy. It should not cause any additional anxiety regard ing the submarine situation, he said, but should only cause a searching of their hearts by the German people who have been tricked Into believing the subma rines will win the war for them MAY FLOAT MERRIMACK Behoboth, Del., June 10.
