HUNS CONCEDE U-BOAT CANNOT HALTYANKEES £hief of German Admiralty Says Task Is Simply Impossible Amsterdam, July SO.—The chief of the German admiralty staff, Admiral von Hottxendorff, has explained to the Cologne Gazette to the best of his ability, the reason why German U-boats are not sinking American transports. He si'.js that owing to the many points of debarkation at the disposal of th Americans from the north of Scotland to the Mediterranean, the Irregularity of the coming of the transports and the strong destroyer guards which accompany them. It is Inexpedient for the U-boats to lurk off tiki these harbors on the chance of getting a shot at them. The real object of the U-boats, adds the ad miral, is to reduce enemy cargo space, for on this depends the ability of the allies to continue the war. It is recalled that von Holtzendorffl in February, 1916, was reported by Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg saying new submarines would force England to make nace within six months. Ordered Troops to Hold the Marne Washington, July 30. A French dispatch, telling how the backbone German defense along the line of the Marne pooket began to break Thursday and gave way on Saturday, was received here yesterday.

The dis patch reads: "In whatever way Ludendorff pre sents to the German public the re ' i treat from the Marne, there cannot . I be the slightest doubt that the re j treat was Imposed on him by the vic : I torious pressure of the allied forces i | operating between Soissons and I ! Rheims.
