1 Contfhued from l'ace One
I J Americans continued throJehout Sun-
The Germans north of the Marne were
ubjected to a terrible poundlnc from
the Allied artillery yesterday. They, rn
responded heartily althouglv unsuccessful-
iNiy. The Allied artillerymen were feeling
IS out the German rear lines with telllnir
effect, making the enemy's rear guard
paction costly.
Prisoners captured near Chateau-
P11 Thierry confirmed the soundness of Gen-
exeral Foc,vs plan when they declared a
uerman reireai Dceume impcrHiive on
;. Account of decreased supplies. Stores of
. both ammunition and foodstuffs were be-
i coming low, they said, and the ofheers
t-j.had reported that It was practically
impossible to resist.
Orders had been issued, the, prisoners
The advance proceeded well from the
start. n- 4 o'clock the Germans had
been cleared out as far ennt i
kilometers west of Dormans South of
Dormans the enemy, !!: his retreat
cut off, made a determined, but vain
stand.
Hy B o'clock detachments of Amer
icans and French reached the river bank
In one place and soon after a messnee
was flashed to all the armies that the
Germans had been (sent back across
the JIarne.
Tho German artillery gave the men
very poor support, and the chief flchtlnc
on their part was done with machine
guns. The reason for the Inck of Ger
man artillery work Is explained by the
report of American aviators that the
Germans ern husv all the afternoon
drawing back their guns Ttmn the
heights north of The river.
Willie we were pushing north from
Chateau-Thierry to Dormans, the
French, with .the Americans on their
left, attacked the region of Oullly, gain
ing that place and pushing the enemv
back on Chatillnn. north of the river.
Here the lino bends northward, and by
morning It was reported that Inipnitant
gains. In some places of six kilometers
have been made all the way up to
itneims.
The Americans fought after inldnleht
northwest of Chateau-Thierry, pushing
nnnnenstwnril. Due of our lines runs
around the side of Hill 204. which com
mands Chateau-Thierry. The Germans
nave, prlrt a terrific price to hold this
hill the last five weeks.
Karly In tho morning prisoners were
being brought In large detachments to
the rear. The total of 17,000 prisoners
announced Saturday morning will bo
swelled by the work of the day and
night. The prisoners taken by the
Americans alone In the last week reach
more than "500.
A large number of machine guns fell
Into our hands south of the Marno.
It will be recalled that the Germans
crossed the Marne between Fossoy and
Jaulgonnc last .Monday at the start of
tho Crown Prince's Ill-fated dr!e, hut
the Americans drove them back before
nightfall. Inflicting losses of 20.000.
It was nfter the enemy had drlen
In a way hy superior numbers against
the French troops that the Americans
wero put In between south of Jaulgonne
'and south of Dm mans. They had been
Itching ever since to get a show against
the enemy and they won the results
already stated
Tho wonderful thing about the sensa
tional attack from the can against the
German salient Is that it took place
without lessening the .lower of the drive
against tho salient from the west be
tween Rolssons and Chateau-Thierry.
Here we met violent counter-attacks
by German shock troops, hut neverthe
less made more progress and captured
more prisoners. .The Americans hae
established themselves on tho Solssons-Chateau-Thlerry
road, about ten kilo
meters south of Solssons and kept their
hold on the heights .overlooking the city
We mado advances east of Maulo'y
Wood and east of the villages of St.
nemy, Elauzy, Xeullly and Cllgnon, all
the operations netting prisoners.
t'un't (lierk up Situation"
This, one of the greatest of all bat
tles. Is moving too fnst and too furiously
to check up the net situation all along
and outline exactly what will bo gained.
Suffice It to say, that wo are victors
fo far. Saturday's fighting brought Im
portant gains on tho entire front from
Soissons to rtheims. In no place did
tho French and American's and Allied
troops suffer reverses. It was a great
day.
Foch Is pinching the German salient
from both 3ldes and slamming It on
the end In a rough generality, Foch
has done what seemed the most simple
thing, but which at tne samo time called
for a master hand. The Germans were
driving eastward toward Kpernay, and,
held by the French nnd Americans, were
about ready to throw great strength
Into the effortrwhen Foch hit them from
behind on the Solssons-Chateau-Thlerry
front.
The German Crown Prince hastily
withdrew troops to meet that peril
when Foch hit the point toward Eper
riay on the other side of the salient.
With the pincers working both sides,
he hit ngaln south of the Marne.
Whose next move It was the Ger
mans promptly recognized by withdraw
ing from Chateau-Thierry. How far
north will they g Is tho question now?
Perhaps the German high command
does not know, perhaps General Foch
docs. And the glorious part of It all
Is that It Is being dono by tho Allied
army, which the Germans openly stated
was worn out.
' Reckoned Without Amerlrnns
They thought the Americans would
not be ready until next spring nnd at
the end of last March decided to make
drive after drive, getting I'nrls nnd end
ing the war this fall Their hordes
were to take the French rapltat and
.forco peace They were going to do
what they failed to do In 1914.
Hut let me relate it little scene I
saw Saturday. Down the dusty road
southward came a hundred German.
prisoners being escorted by Americans.
As they passed a cocky little Fieireh
man, by the side of tho road, stepped
close to thcHInc nnd said, "Nach Paris,
Net rn .tin ."
The German command know now that
the French and English wero not ex
hausted nnd that the Americans were
raedv before the appointed date.
What a week this has been In the
world's history' A week ago, while the
French were celebrating Pastille Day,
the Germans, strdng In hope because
of two preceding drives, were making
ready for another great effort. On Mon
day morning they launched an attack
from Chateau-Thierry to north of Cha
lons on a loo-kllometer front. They
crossed the Marne and mined a s-hoit
distance towaid' their objectives.
Then out of a clear sky, Thuisiiay
morning came Foch's blow' from Solssons
to Chateau-Thieny On Thursday and
Friday French and Americans fought
ahead", and then jesterday they hit
I.udtndorff a body blow foutlt of the
Marne.
The week started with a formidable
Get man offensive. The week ends with
a great Allied offensive. What will the
next week Uilng? Certainly all civili
zation should be ginteful for what has
happened to the Germans in the last
one, but it is too early vet for much
ringing of bells and too great lejolclng.
He has been outgeueialed nnd out
fought this week, it li tiue, but he Is
far from beaten lie Is a formidable
enemy and will try to come back.
Americans, French, KnglMi all the
Allien now face the fury of the Ger
man high command with. ltd great mill'
tnrv machine. That machine Is nig aim
perfect, but not the machine It used
to be.
The morale ot the German army Is
weakening from day to day. ' The size
of the Grimaii army Is growing surely
less day by day.
The morale ot the Allied armies l-
getting better every day, and because
ot America the size of the Allied armies
's growing day by day. The defeat of
Geimany Is a matter of time. How much
time no one can say. Amercca should
lejolce, but America should not be over
confident. Hut for what France has to
be thankful for, America has a Just
right to he thankful for, too
Alnerlruns Went I'llrtheit
South of solssons, whro the bitterest
fighting of the week took place, It was
the Americans who had the good fortune
to push the line farthest ahead. North
west of Chateau-Thieny. the closest
point of Pari". It fell to the Americans
to push the Germans back Ka"t of
Chateau-Thierry the Americans drove
the enemy back the same day be crowed
the Marne. South of Dormans the
Americans held the German advance and
helped drive the foe back ' Saturday.
Noith of Chalons, the grand objective of
the Crown Prince, the Americans stood
on the plains and. the bucho could not
pass.
It was the lot of American soldiers
to bo at vital points, and they made
good. If Is not to be supposed that
Americans were nt those points through
accident. Perhaps Foch felt that the
ult'mate, complete victory depended on
what the American lighting man could
do, and pel haps he thought It best to
know how. It seems but fair for Amer
ica to know and bellero that, after all,
the greatest Allied gain of this glorious
week Is the assurance that the Anieil
can fighting man has no miperinr What
tens of thousands of them have done
In the labt wetk hundreds of thousands
will do The week has changed the
nature of the war from an Allied de
fense to an Allied offensive. For the
first time in more than a year the Ger
mans arc nn the defensive.
