GERMAN RIGHT WING HAS BEGUN RETREAT---TROOPS SEEN LEAVING POSITIONS
AFTER NINETEEN DAYS OF BATTLEOF
 AISNE DECISION REMAINS UNKNOWN
 GERMANS RECEIVING MANY SETBACKS
Many Points Of German Line Have Found Impossible Stem The Advance Of Allies Attack s-Bate Line Is Considerably Changed In Past Few Days Revelations Of Troop Movements London Reports Parallel those Sent From Battlefield

Indeed there seems to be some agreement in official reports of the belhgerents on events in this part of the battlefield. The German reports refer to the advance of the allies of which the French communication says a vigorous attack made by Ger mans on Tracy Le Mont. northeast of the forest of Aigne was repulsed with heavy losses. or course these re. ports may refer to different incidents but they nevertheless agree in the advantage in favor of the allies.
 Al the center from Rheims to Mouse, there is a lull. The armies appear still to be waiting for the outcome Of fighting on the wings.
 Between Argonne and Mouse and again in Woevre, there has been more severe fighting. The French claim to have made slight progress and have advanced at several points. especially to the east of St. Mitiel
 Although the French staff is very sparing with information, 1t is .eyi. dent the forces which advanced frofl Tout to oppose the Germans who l crossed the Mouse near St. Mihiel have succeeded in getting behind a small contingent of invaders who had successfully carried out an at. tempt to bend the French line at this point.
 Other offensive movements by the French between Verdun and Toul were repulsed, however, according to 1 the German report. In Lorraine and in Vosges there is no change in the ! situation. Here. too, the armies seem to be awaiting the result of the great CT contest further west where British naval experts believe the allies have at least firmly set the claws of their left in the German right wing under 1 General VOn Kluck

be hrtle of Naco remains prob lematical. It may come this morning Again. next Sunday, or a week from Sunday may see the first of the ac- tions of the Maytorena troops against the Gil entrenchments The usual Mexican temperament. the advance of the Yauuis, there whereabouts, and their inclination to attack the heavily fortified border town all are immense figures in setting a date for action Actual facts as to the where abouts and actions of the Maytorena troops are unobtainable, and dehn- ite statements of when the first at tack may be expected are impossible
 However. at the same time there are two things immediately import ant and definitely certain. The Naquis are proceeding against the border city and the Gil troops are waiting patiently on arms and in their en- trenchments for the appearance or the men from the south. These facts are definite. the first from the mouths of officers in the Gil command, the second from actual survey Of the field about Naco.
 The Yaquis are advancing. Where. how fast, in what direction, Is also problematical. Two reports were is' sued yesterday evening of their whereabouts. One would lead to their appearance before the city by day break today. The other might not per init of their appearance against the defenses before Saturday or Sunday
 Mexicans in the army of the Car ranzistas state the YaQuis were just beyond the San Jose mountains, dis lance of twelve or fifteen miles from the city last evening. More authentic sources. however. stated that they arc on the railroad between Cananea anC Naco. a distance of twenty-five miles from the border, and advancing witi two troop trains. They are repairing the bridges and culverts in their ad vance. and are necessarily delayed il carrying on this work.
 This last report has the ring O
 truth. It is known from adVices iron
 the Maytorena headquarters at NJ
 gales that the Yaquis have in thei
 command two trains with which the
 left Nogales. The report was also ii
 sued from high men in the CarraI
 zistas forces at the border.
 Be that as it may. Gil and hi
 officers are expecting an attack. Thl

in front, and anord admirable ds-l fense for the Gil men from which they can probaDsy resist the attacks of the Maytorena forces for some time if not definitely.
 Over half of the cavalry which went out cn scout duty and which has been hunting through the country for the Yaquis, has returned to their headquarters. The remainder is eX- pected in by morning, as word has been sent out for them to return. They have taken the machine guns to the ditches where special pits have been erected, and where yes terday they placed, and cleaned them, in readiness for the first attack.
 The morals of the camp remains about the same. There continue seY- eral assertions a day. At the same time men are continually joining the Gil forces from the American side. Yesterday thirty Carranzlstas left the camp of the Gil men. They came to Bisbee and the Warren district. Among them was one of the negro machine gun operators who had been in the employ of the defending forces.
 He explained his leaving. "I aint afraid 10 fight the Yaquis," he said, but I ran before l had to fight them single handed. The rest of the MeXi cans are scared of them, and they'n run when the Yaquis shoot aint a goin' 10 stay and fight them single , handed"
 The negro trooper stated that he finds most of the Mexicans afraid oi the Yaquis. He says the Yaquis arc good fighters and have the fear o death we'll instilled in the hearts o ! the Carranzistas He does not be
