MARINES TAKE 350 GERMANS IN MARNE ATTACK Ten Officers and Two Krupp Field Guns Also Taken bv Americans With the American Army at the Stnrne. June 12t—A battalion of American marines took the northern half of Beileau wood (northwest of Chateau Thierry*. capturing- 350 Prussian and Saxon prisoners, includ ing ten officers, and two Krupp field guns of 3-inch caliber, several huge minenwerfers and some machine guns. • The attack was delivered after two hours of preliminary bombardment. The American machine gunners in flicted the heaviest casualties upon the enemy. Owing to the excellent artillery preparation and the swift ness of the operation, the American ■ casualties were light. The Germans launched an attack on Bouresches at 5 o'clock, but the assault was smashed, thanks to the coolness of the American machine gunners and the accuracy of the ar tillery.

SPIRIT OF WAR 1 Mission Returns From Abroad Saw War Activities of England New York. Members of the American mission, which for more ! than a month studied social and In dustrial conditions in the British Isles, have arrived in New York and speak in high terms of the unfalter ing spirit of the British people of all classes to see the war through. In ( their stay, in which they managed to squeeze in a ten-day trip to France and the fighting front, the members '■ of the mission were accorded un-! usual privileges, in order to see and study British life. They had an hour's informal chat j with King George and Queen Mary; 1 spent another hour with Lloyd ueorge at 10 Downing street; talked with workingmen and their families in the East End after a German air j raid: saw tanks in the making; in-1 spected factories where aeroplane.* being turned out; visited the i British grand fleet, and talked with sailors and officers of the American fleet in British waters. Some of the I members of the party went to Ire land and discussed industrial and social conditions in that land ot" storm and stress. Others, particu-1 larly the labor union members ofi the party, who were accredited by the American Federation of Labor, I had conferences with British labor leaders. Perhaps one of the most sig • n * ,lcant reports which members of I the mission brought back was that j the American soldier who went to I France, bearing no particular feeling! rof animosity against the Germans.! was now as hateful of the boche as 1 j the Australians and the Canadians. I i They met two battalions of American i troops who were marching to their rest billets after the first real test of American arms at Seicheprey, and! heard what these men had to say. The American soldiers who are now in the lighting, said one member of : the mission, were imbueaf with a spirit which boded ill fof' the enemy. Irvin S. Cobb, Back From War, Asserts Victory Is Certain • New York.—With the dust-of bat-| tie-scarred Picardy still faintly vis-; ible on his khaki uniform and the I little identification medal still dang- j ling front his wrist, Irvin S. Cobb, ! author, traveler and war correspond ent, has returned from the western j front with a message that our boys| i ar e of indomitable spirit and feel | | sure of victory. This remarkable 1 spirit, said he, not only assures a glorious triumph for the Allies, buti ! Allied leaders declare it will un-i doubtedly achieve a quicker end. j "The most moving spectacle that I have witnessed on the European battlefields," said Mr. Cobb, "is the unbounded enthusiasm of our men : going to the fighting lines. Their' virile, freshening breath has pene-' trated to Tommy and Poilu, so that the Allied forces of to-day are J j steeled with a courage and will that! lis deathless. Always our fellows are i smiling. They smile when they en-+ ! ter th£ trenches, they smile when I they charge, and when they return , for rest from the heat of battle, still , they smile. Never do they com plain, but always are they eager to, ibe unleashed for the fray. Their: ! officers complain only of their over- | j anxiety to get into the fight. Their j ] dash and enthusiasm has startled I i the wearied French and British into ! a renewed liveliness, and they know j they will win." I. S. A fmi en Play Big Part Mr. Cobb predicted that open waf-; j /are, brought about by the present ' German offensive would continue till j • the end of the war, adding that it was the opinion of many generals j that the big, victorious smash must I come from the flexible maneuvering j of huge armies over great stretches! :of territory. Our airmen, he said. 1 : are playing a greater part in the, present battle than is generally sup- : ! posed. They are fighting on all the J I fronts in large numbers, and in dar-1 i ing and dash are unsurpassed. "The Boche,'" he said, "entertains the greatest dread of our -aviators, i They have had a taste of the Ameri- ■ can abandon and utter fearlessness. 1 They understand that the American' aviator will never fly from a Ger man." "The Americans, however," said I Mr. Cobb, "were still using French I ! machines for combat." j "It must not be imagined." he j • added, "that the German morale hasj I collapsed.
