HUN ATTACK ON AMERICAN LINE COSTLY FAILURE Marked Bravery Displayed by Yankees in Repulsing Three Battalions With the French Army in Franco, May 2.—A heavy German attack launched yesterday against the Americans in the vicinity of Villers-j Bretonneux, was repulsed with heavy losses for the enemy. The German preliminary bom-1 bardment lasted two hours and then the infantry rushed forward, only to be driven back, leaving large numbers of dead on the ground in front of the American lines. The German bombardment open ed at 5 o'clock in the afternoon and was directed especially against the Americans, who were supported on the north and south by the French. The fire was intense, and at the end of two hours the German command er sent forward three battalions of infantry. There was hand-to-hand fighting all along the line, as a result of which the enemy was thrust back, his dead and wounded lying on the ground in all directions. Five pris oners remained in American hands. The struggle, which lasted a con siderable time, was extremely vio lent, and the Americans displayed marked bravery throughout. It was the first occasion in which the Americans were engaged in the big battle which has been raging since March 21, and their French comrades are full of praise for the manner in which they conducted themselves tinder trying circum stances, especially in view of the fact that they are lighting at one of the most ditficuit points on the bat tlefront. The American losses were some what severe. Washington, May 2. —A glowing tribute is paid the American soldiers in France by a French officer in a letter published yesterday in the Paris Temps. The letter, written to a friend, says: "Infinitely interesting is our con tact with the American troops. They have occupied the sector immediate ly beside ours. We have seen them at work, and it should be told and retold that they are marvelous. The Americans are soldiers by nature, and their officers have the desire to learn with an enthusiasm and an idealistic ardor very remarkable. "There is the same spirit among the privates. They ask questions with a touching good will, setting aside all conceit or prejudice. Nat urally they have the faults of all new troops. They show themselves too much and expose themselves im prudently, letting themselves be car ried away by their ardor, not know ing when to spare themselves or to seek shelter or when to risk every thing for an end. This experience will be quickly learned. "As for bravery, activity and disci pline, they are marvelous. They ab solutely astonished us one morning of attack. The cannonade, suddenly becoming furious, had Just thrown me out of my bunk. No doubt about it, it was a Verdun attack. Taking time to seize my revolver, put on my helmet and gather up several docu ments, I descended to the streets. When I arrived there they were al ready filing by with rapid, easy, de cided steps, marching in perfect or der, in silence, with admirable reso lution, and, above all, with a strik ing discipline, to their fighting posi tions. It was fine. You can have no idea how cheering it was to my pollus. "Their artillery will be and already is of the first order. The officers are intelligent and filled with leal, and the greater part of the service functions without a hitch. Too much praise can never be given their sani tary automobiles, swift, strong, com fortable, a veritable godsend to us." TRIAIi OF 113 I. W. W. BEGINS By Associated Press Chicago, May 2.

Italian soldiers. | Since the beginning of the war the Czechs, of which family the Bolie- i mians are members, have shown a strong dislike to fighting in behalf of Austria, and in line with the Aus trian troops.

C., May 2. —If a new peace proposal from the Vati can is brought formally and officially before the Washington government it will become the raison d'etre for the most stinging arraignment of Germany that has been penned since the assassination of an Austrian Archduke gave Berlin an excuse for plunging all civilization into war. The Washington government has no knowledge of any definite plans formulated by Pope Benedict to make a fresh appeal to the Entente allies and Central Powers. It would not surprise the American govern ment if the rumors proved merely another example of Germany's clumsy propaganda methods. If, however, Pope Benedict dos appeal to the belligerent nations for a cessation of hostilities, the reply of I the United States will give Presi | dent Wilson a welcome opportunity to issue a resume of the war situa tion up to the present time and a frank explanation of America's in tentions. It goes without saying that Wash ington will give any communication from the Vatican the respectful hearing and careful consideration R demands. Every entente govilin ment deeply appreciates and sympa thizes with the efforts which Pope Benedict has exerted to put a period to the greatest tragedy in history. It Is entirely possible the venerable churchman may advance arguments which will merit detailed discussion. f^|AMUSEji^jMENTs|fjjl ORPHEUM To-morrow, matinee and night—The musical comedy of youth, "When Dreams Come True."
