CROWN PRINCE FAILS IN
HEAVY COUNTERATTACK
[Continued From Page I.]
cecds the total casualties of the allied troops since the victorious
advance began.
The correspondent has seen a large column of these prisoners
coming in and, from their appearance, they were certainly picked
men.
The number of undamaged cannon which has been taken by
the allies is very large and constantly increasing, while at the
same time large quantities of ammunition have been captured.
> Every in Full Retreat
The advance of the armies commanded by General Mangin and
General de Goutte on this flank averages ten kilometers, while
General Berthelot who is smashing at the other side of the pocket
containing the defeated Germans also is progressing appreciably.
The French, Americans and British are working in closest co
operation and with absolute confidence.
Rear guard actions are being fought by the Germans north
of Chateau Thierry. These probably were organized for the pur
pose of delaying the relentless pursuit of the fleeing enemy by the
French and Americans, who on Sunday morning passed through
Chateau Thierry and advanced northeast of that cornerstone of
German conquest in eastern Frante.
The reaction of the Germans is said to have been marked
between Grisolles and Bezu-St. Germain, two villages northwest
and north of Chateau Thierry at distance of approximately seven
and four miles, respectively. The distance between Grisolles and
Bezu-St. Germain is about four miles. Along this line, German
attacks were broken and the allied line was maintained throughout.
Americans Advance One and a Quarter Mile
North of the Ourcq river the reaction of the enemy was limited
to artillery fire.
This also was the case between the Marne and Rheims, notably
in the region west of the Rheims mountain and in the Courton
and Roi woods.
Since the Germans have been ousted from Chateau Thierry
under conditions which suggest that the withdrawal was precipi
tated, the most interesting movements in the battle are south of
Soissons, where the Americans are reported to have advanced a
distance of a mile and a quarter; the Ourcq valley, where the
allies are steadily pounding their wa ytoward Nanteuil-Notre Dame
and southwest of Rheims, where there seems to be an indication
that the allies have initiated a new drive for the purpose of out
flanking the Germans between Marfaux and Chatillion.
Allies Work "Nutcracker"
If this last movement develops, the allies' "nutcracker" will be
in full motion. Between the known allied front south of Sois
sons to the town of Bouilly, southwest of Rheims, there is a gap
of about 24 miles. This gap, however, probably is much smaller
at present, for the allies' positions south of Soissons seem likely
to have been advanced materially since they were reported at
Hartenns-et-Taux on Saturday. If the French, Italian and British
troops southwest of Rheims make an advance of any importance
the position of the Germans further sotrth will be made even
more critical than it is known to be at present.
There appear to be at least two, and possible three, enveloping
•operations along the western side of the salient south of Soissons.
The first of these, evidenced by the breaking through of the allies
northwest of Chateau Thierry on Sunday morning, had immediate
results in forcing the Germans back from the extreme top of the
salient. The second enveloping movement is proceding up the
Ourcq valley and at last accounts was very near Oulchy-Le-
Chateau. The third is the advance of the alliens south of Soissons.
Germans in Perilous Plight
Thus Foch has projected tentacles eastwards to catch the Ger
mans retreating from the Marne. If another claw is thrust out
from the Rheims salient, the situation will become much more
perilous for the enemy.
There are few details of the fighting between the Aisne and
the Ourcq. It appears, however, that the reported advance of the
allies south of the Aisne, below Soissons is simply the carrying out
of the French strategic plan of keeping the the Aisne on the French
left flank. The actual occupation of Soissons will be a matter of
slight importance in comparison to the demoralization or capture
of the Germai. armies to the southward which appears to have
been in General Foch's mind as a possibility when the smash on
the German flank was begun by General Mangin on Thursday
morning.
Hun Forces in Danger
If the allied "nutcracker" continues to close in the remorseless
manner that it has for the past three days, the Germans will be
fortunate if they extricate all their forces from the Marne salient.
The railroad communications virtually are all under allied control
or are under heavy fire. The tired and defeated Germans must re
treat over wagon roads byway of Fere-en-Tardenois or to the
eastward of that place, and the task of bringing them safely out
of the sack in which they have been caught is a heavy one.
Continued allied successes would, it might appear, compel a
German retreat at least as far as the Vesle river. If this line is
maintained by the Germans. General Foch will have succeeded
in straightening out his front, which then will run in nearly a
direct line from Montdidier to the heights of the Meuse.
British Gain Ground
British forces on the northern side of the Picardy sector have
! gained further ground near Hebuterne, while east of Amiens, near

Arras and in the Lys salient raiding operations characterized the
operations o fthe British during the past night.
Increasing allied pressure on the Rheims-Soissons salient is
making the German positions more precarious every hour.
Between the Ourcq and the Marne French and American
troops are making rapid progress. On the eastern flank a new
allied spearhead has been driven into the enemy lines near Bouilly
southwest of Rheims. Both movements are pointed toward
Fismes, on the Vesle, the main German base within the salient.
German Line May Be Withdrawn
Despite German resistance, especially from artillery and
machine guns, the allies are steadily pressing forward and indica
tions that the Germans finally will have to withdraw to a line
from Rheims to Soissons, or along the Vesle, are becoming
brighter. Only one small piece of railroad still is in use by the
enemy and this section has no connections with the main German
base to the north. The enemy troops are reported to have
small supplies of food and ammunition and no adequate means
of getting more.
In the past 24 hours most progress has been made in the
Chateau Thierry sector and the enemy has been driven back
there about five miles eastward from Belleau and three miles
northward from the Marne at Chateau Thierry. Both the French
and Americans have made notable progress in this region since
the occupation of Chateau Thierry Sunday morning.
Marne Soon Clear
Prom the Ourq to the Marne the
allied line now runs through La
Croix, (grisolles,, Epieds to Mont St.
Pere, on the Marne, where the
French have crossed the river. The
allied advance apparently is toward
Fere-en-Tardenois which is under |
heavy artillery bombardment, and j
if It continues as it has begun will !
soon see the Marne again cleared |
of the enemy. The Germans now j
hold but a small portion of the north
bank east of Charteves.
Another spearhead is being driven J
toward Fere-en-Tardenois astride i
the Ourq and the French now are
within a mile of Oulchy-le-Chateau,
the largest point west of Fere. Be
tween the Ourcq and the Aisne the'
allied advance has been less rapid,!
but the Soissons Chateau Thierry!
road, except for small sections here |
and there, is entirely within the!
allied lines. Soissons still holds out'
but the French seemingly are con- j
tent to dominate it with their guns j
and thereby render the city useless 1
as a base while saving themselves
the danger of a flank attack which
might arise if they held the city.
Italians Do Good Work
Next to the advance around
Chateau Thierry the most notable
development has been the forward
thrust by French, Italian and Rritisii
troops southwest of Rheims. On a
front of six miles an average ad
vance of about one mile has been
made the villages of Bouilly and St. j
Euhpraise and the Rheims and Cour
ton woods being cleared of the Ger
mans. The allies are meeting with
strong resistance and the enemy is
reported fighting hard to hold the
thrust in check, as it is a serious
threat to the German troops between
the Ardre and the Marne.
The French official statement still
continues to report the results of
the fighting briefly and calmy. There
has been no announcement of any
increase in the number of prisoners
though it is reported from the battle
front that many more have been
captured. Four hundred machine
guns and thirty cannon were found
in the German positions south of
the Marne.
Berlin Admits Reverse
Berlin admits a withdrawal north
and northeast of Chateau Thierry
after that across the Marne. Else
where, it says the allies have been
repulsed with heavy losses. Ameri
can troops are mentioned and it is
claimed they suffered severe casual
ties. Admission that General Foch's
counter blow was a surprise als> is
made, but the German stafT does
not mention definite points where
fighting is progressing.
Elsewhere on the western front
and in Italy there has been no fight
ing activity. In Albania in a re
sumption of their movement north
ward French and Italian troops have
taken the crest of the Mail Siloves,
a mountain range In the bend of
the Devoll river, south of Elbassan.
Rome reports the total prisoners
captured up to July 19 as 2,167.
The Austrian cabinet of Dr s Von
HAimiSBURG TELEGRAPH
Seydler again has resigned. It is
reported that Emperor Charles this
time will accept the surrender of the

apparently has been unable to bring
the Austrian parliament into line so
that it will pass necessary bills.
Captain "Pat" Neilson
Home, but Injuries Will
Keep Him From Work
Captain "Pat" Neilson, who, with
his wife, was injured in a motorcycle
accident near Baltimore, returned to
Harrisburg to-day after being in the
hospital at Baltimore for the past
three days. He is sugering severely
and will not be able to resume his ac
tivities as head of the Salvation Army
here for several weeks.
"I want to thank those who helped
my family in my absence," said he
to-day. "Kind friends sent us a lit
tle money for our family use and more
to keep the work going, but I fear we
shall be in sore straits at the Army
home shortly, unless we get more as
sistance. I am not thinking of our
selves. The family will get along.
But the work is sugering. Last even
ing a young woman, who has been as
sisting us, conducted the services, al
though she cannot sing. A talking
machine helped her out for the music.
The doctors say it will be ten days
before I can get about again, and if
kind friends will help us keep the
work going while I am laid up, I
promise to make up for it by the hard
est kind of work when I am able to
get about again."
The Salvation Army has been doing
a good work here and is worthy of
support.

PAXTANG PARK' THEATER
Musical Comedy.
Heading the bill at the Majestic to
day are "The Korn Kob Kut Ups," one
of those genuinely laugh-
At tne able rural combinations of
Majestic eight people, with a reper
toire of humorous songs,
grotesque dances, quaint instrumen
tal numbers and a budget of laugh-
Provoking repartee. Perhaps the most
notable feature on the program,
thougn, is Le Poilu, the celebrated
1< rench musical artist, until recently
in the employ of the French govern
ment as Inspector of munitions, at
oteelton, now released from duty In
order to return to his chosen profes
sion. Le Poilu, who for many sea
sons was a well-known Keith per
former before volunteering his ser
vices to the military service pf his
native country, is not only a versatile
musician, but is the master of many
very unique tricks and the inventor
of several uncommon instriwnents,
some of which will be seen during the
current engagement. Among others,
who form an exceptional variety en
semble, are: Mack and Vincent, duo of
vocalists and comedy purveyors; the
well-known dramatic star, Marv Em
erson, and a company of Ave. in the
very lively comedy playlet, "The
Play's the Thing," and Bennington
and Scott, the speed-limit stepping
stars.
"The Venus Model" will be seen at
the Colonial Theater to-day and to
morrow, with pretty Mabel
At the Normand. Picture Mabel
Colonial Normand in a bathing suit
which is such a work of
art that it is named "The Venus
Model"—and then add to it a story
which is full of fun and just the
right vehicle for the little comedi
enne, and there are all the ingredi
ents necessary for a corking good pic
ture, which this one certainly is. Of
course, Mabel plays an Irish girl. You
all know how perfectly adorable and
mischievous she can be. She Is
rightly called "the girl who never
disappoints," and in this latest pic
ture she certainly lives'up to her
reputation.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,
Clara Kimball Young, the screen
queen, has the most dramatic role in
her career in "The Claw."
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday,
the Regent Theater will have a treat
for the thea-
Mnrguerlte Clnrk In tergoers of
"Uncle Tom's Cabin" H a r r isburg,
with no ad
vance in admission, to witness Mar
guerite Clark in one of her best mo
tion pictures ever shown at the Re
gent.
The story is from the book written
by Harriet Beecher Stowe, immortal
to all book-lovers and likewise to all
people of America. This photoplay is
said to be one of the most notable
screen offerings of the season. Miss
Clark plays two roles, those of Eva
and Topsy, and it is safe to say she
never has been seen to greater ad
vantage.
The announcement that the Victoria
Theater will present the sensational
drama, "Within
"Within the I.nw" the Law," to
nt the Victoria day and to
morrow, will be
welcome news to all Harrlsburg mo
tiqn picture fans. The famous stage
play of the same name was presented
to millions of people, and all were
loud in their praise of the high-class
dramatic production. The screen ver
sion is said to be even more convinc
ing, for the reason of the fact that
many scenes can be shown which
were impossible in the stage produc
tion. Alice Joyce and Harry Morey
are featured, and are seen at their
best. Metropolitan police methods of
enforcing confessions, whether true
or false, appearing to be necessary, are
portrayed with startling realism. Not
only is the physical brutality of the
third degree shown, but the mental
third degree is also vividly presented.
The attraction that the Harry P
Krivit Company will offer at the Pax
tang Park Theater for
Paitang their fifth week is en-
Theater titled, "Where There's a
Will."
Everbody who saw the Krivit Com
pany in their successful production of
"Pardon Me," was very much interest
ed in the character of the slavey, or,
in other words, the character of many
laughs—the maid-of-all-work. Those
who have seen "Pardon Me" will be
pleased to know that the slavey will
be the central figure in "Where
There's a Will," and that the oppor
tunities for comedy in the new piece
are even greater than they were when
Miss Alvina Krause created such a
favorable Impression in "Pardon Me."
Seymour Brown wil play the clerk at
the Young Hotel, where the scene is
laid and in the character of Jim
Burns will find many a way of creat
ing hearty and wholesome laughter.
Nellie De Grasse will be seen at Mrs.
Young, the proprietress of the Young
Hotel, and Margie Phillips will play
the role of her daughter. Eva.
Krivit's beauty chorus, composed of
the well-known team of Kobel and
Collins, Zeidel Vaughn, Phyliss. Ray
Val Origgs and others will be seen to
advantage in the various musical
numbers, and an hour's solid enter
tainment is promised to all that may
visit the Paxtang Park Theater this
week.

Germany Chagrined by
Failure of Offensive
Amsterdam. July 22.—Chagrin has
been evoked in Germany by the lat
est event in ihe west. This is clearly
reflected in a dispatch to the Colo
gne Gazette in which its Berlin cor
respondent writes:
"False hopes were perhaps pinned
at home to the launching of this new
offensive. It cannot be the aim of
every single war operation to attain
definite objectives In all circum-l
stances.
"The victorious operations of thej
third week of July gave rise to vart-j
ous predictions which do not agree
with the previous actual conditions,!
nor with those of to-day. We will
not refer to those who knew precise
ly that Von Hindenburg would carry
out an attack on Paris. We have
no reason to conceal the fact. There
were deserters among the German
troops who used their knowledge of
the planned operations to betray the
fatherland and their comrades."
After referring to the entente's
counter offensive, the correspondent
says:
"The forgoing shows that not
only east of Rheims, but also on the
Marne we are confronted with diffi
cult tasks and Von Hindenburg will
in this situation not satisfy some of
the strategists.
