ADMIT FOCH ADVANTAGE
Excuse Maine Victory as the
Result of French Anticipa
tion of Attack
By GEORGE HENWICK .
Special Cable, in Evening Vublie. Ledger
Cotiyviuhl, .'il.tiy .Yiui York Ttmat Co,
Ainslrrilani, .lllly 22. It Is perfectly
clear that after the first day of the
new offensive the German general staff
thought It well to prepare the people
for something different from that which
was ep"cted. Kvery one knows the
firm hand which the German command
keeps on war correspondents, but never
has it hi en made so evident as In the.
newspapers of yesterday nnd tndny,
XumerottH correspondents describe tho
fighting In absolutely identical words',
and all of them dwell on the difficulties
encountered in tills new effott.
On Wednesday Dr. George Wegener,
the correspondent of the ColortllO
'.azntte. adinltti'd In his inessige that
j rast of Itheims only slight advantages
had been gained.
"The Gi nnaii troops," be declares,
"bad ciii'iicntered a foe who In an ex
ceedingly dltllcult wooded and billy
region fought every step and who, put
ting fottli the utmost determination,
made use of all tlie natuinl advantages
presented by the ground, Especially
were the enemy's long-range guns and
nlr squadrons busy endeavoring to bring
our advance to a standstill. In par
ticular efforts were made to destroy
the bridges over the Marne' -
Herr Terler. tho correspondent ot the
Mel liner Tagelilatt, helps In the same
way to destroy the belief which the Ger
man press recently had been Impressing
on the German people, that the French
army Is on its lust legs. He refers to
tlie "extraordinary determination" with
which the French are fighting and ex
plains nwny the slight results gained
h; the statement that "it is now clear i
the French knew the attack was cnnilng
nnd weio prepared." Ho illgulses badly
his ndmlratlon for the work of the
!H French artillery, "which rained shells
on the villages nnu roans, tne iienis and
woods along the Marne." lie ppenks of
the French and Americans "stubbornly
contesting every meter of ground." while
near Coiirtemont their resistance was
"extremely fierce." Guard regiments,
too, at Chanipaillet had to face tough
opposition.
It is noteworthy, too, that while nu-
, nierou.i German correspondents and crlt-
I les refer to the impossibility of a French
counter-offensive on a big scale, tlie Ger-
many communique describes it as "long
I expected."
In Holland news of Foch s success
created tremendous Interest, and heie in
Ainsteidam the streets ring with the
jifevvs vendors' shouts nf Allied victory.

Mercury Likely to Reach

ONE DEATH RECORDED
Mnny Pbiladclpbians Spent
Last Night in Pnrks and
on Roofs
Wnshlnclon, July 22.
Hopes for relief from one of the
most severe hent waves that has
tfripped the east for years were
blasted today when the weather
bureau forecast for the eastern
States reported, "continued warm,
partly cloudy, hluh temperatures."
The western districts arc nightly
below the seasonal heat, the bureau
report showed. The report is for
tonifiht and tomorrow.
Philadelphia Is sizzling today In the
grip nf the first rcnl hot wac of the
summer.
Apparently there Is no prospect ot
j early relief The forecast says lair

eclipsing even the temperatures of yes
terday.. At 11 o'clock this morning
the mercury, pausing for a brief while
In Its flight, stood at DO. Yesterday, at
the same hour. It was 88.
The humidity today Is OS per cent.
Yesterday It was 48. What little air
there was stlrrfng came In the form of a
fickle breer.c from the fotitli.
The high temperature for this date la
!0, which was recorded In 1914. It Is
likely the temperature today vvlll equal,
It nnt excerd this mark. Yesterday's
maximum of P4 was the highest for that
date since 1885, when a record of 97 was
established.
The heat wave Is causing suffering In
the tenement dlitrlrts. Last night many
persons slept on doorsteps In tho hope
that there they might find comparative
coolness. i
The hot wave continued in this city
today, with little prospect of early relief.
Karly this morning, while the tempera
ture ascended the humidity increased,
and pronil-p was given that yesterday's
record-breaking tempernture of 94 de
grees might he eclipsed.
The temperature was tiie highest yes
terday nf any July 21 slnco IRKS, when
the mercury attained a height of 97 de
grees.
Attracted by the reduced excursion
fares, thousands sought relief from yes
terday's heat at the seashore. Thousands
of others vvho wished to take advantage
of the $1.35 rate were iTepled tlie priv
ilege when ovrrrrowrted trains .forced
the suspension of the sale nf tickets.
Trains Crowded
Many trains were crowded long before
starting time, nnd the late arrivals were
forced to stand outside tlie gates nnd
watch the "lucky ones" departing.
One death resulted from the heat yes
terday. Frank A. Qulnn, forty-five years
old, E022 P.nce street, becoming erased,
leaped scvcnty-flVe feet from the Chest
nut street bridge into the Hchuylklll
ltiver and was diowned.
Prank Peteison, seventeen years old,
5121 Chestnut street, was overcome' hy
the heat at Fourth and Market streets
last nlghl. lie was taken to the Jeffer
son Hospital In a passing automobile,
hut was later discharged.
All day the Ice crenni pnrlors were
crowded with peisons trying to "cool
off, while soft drink emporiums did a
rushing business. Mnny Ice boxes wero

Parks weie thronged early in the af
ternoon by thnusamlH of families, seek
ing relief from the redhot sun rays
under ttu- cooling trees.
Mnny Sleep Outdoor
When n'g'iitfall came many persons
pulled benches together nnd made rest
ing places, spending the night there.
Housetops and roofs of downtown build
ings were crowded with sleepers, whole
families moving out of crowded tene
ments. Many slept on fire escapes nnd
other places where they could catch any
cooling breeze that might blow.
Rabies, clad only In tiny shirts, suf
fered more than older children.
The humidity continued during the
night and mnny persons, after rptlrlrife,
left the hot rooms of their homes and
mndo beds on porches. In swings and
hammocks, and In bark yards.
New York, July 22. No relief wft
promised today from the heat wave,
which yesterday drove the temperature
to 93, a record for the season. At 10
a. m. today, the mercury registered 85
and was fit III ascending.
The heat, which has gripped the en
tile least, vvlll remain unbroken for sev
eml days at least, the U, S. Weather
llurcnu says.
