BIRDS EYE VIEW OF RETREAT.
French Military Airmen Gives Vivid
Description of German, Flight

! FariS, SepJli3---1ne pest view Oh
the retreating German armies. has
been obtained by a. French military
airman. Ascending from point!near
lVitry, ne flew northward across the
/ Marnej and then eastward by way of
4 Rheims, down the regions of Verdum
and back again in zigzag course TO
2CspotH near Scissors. ~ eps
lGMe2 saw the German hosts not
merely. in retreat, but in flight, and
in some places in disorderly flight.
! 1t was a wonderful sight, he said
/ to look down upon those tens and
hundreds of thousands in moving
military columns-the long gray col
umns Of the Kaiser's picked troops,
some marching in northerly and
others in q northeasterly direction,
and all moving with a tremendous
rapidity which was eloquent of their
desire to place themselves beyond the
reach of the Allied armies, who were
harassing them every step Of the
I way.
The retreat was not confined to the
! highways, but many German soldiers
| were running across the fields, jump
ing over fences, crawling through
hedges and vending their way
through the woods without any SEM
blance of order or discipline.
These men doubtless belonged to
regiments which were badly cut up in
the fierce fighting which preceded
the general retreat. Deprived OF The
majority of their officers and non
commissioned officers they were a
mere rabble of fugitves, mary Of
them without rifles having aban-
doned their weapons IN their mad
haste to escape the vengeance Of
their French and British pursners..
The vast quantities of military
stores and Ammunition which have
fallen into the hands of the Allies
show clearly how disorderly their
flight became in the last day or Two
and the loss of upward Of 200 guns
alone was severe blow to Prus-
sian self-esteem. The advancing al
lied armies found large areas Of
ground Uttered with rifles. ammuri-
ton belts, knapsacks, drinking flask
ammunition wagons, boxes Of -four
etc. Some of the Germans had thrown
off their coats, as well as other por-
tons of their equipment, in their de-
sire to Tighten themselves anA thus
facilitate their escape.
Many Germans captured state they

varying from "a to is hours, and
