1t Is also reported that the news of

numbed the people
Along the Swiss-German frontier the
full extent OF the German retreat is
known. People are crying: "Tf the French
have beaten US, what will the Russians
do?'
LONDON. Sept "A.
Dispatches from Paris and Bordeaux
to the London newspapers describe scenes
of enthusiasm. mingled with the thank
fulncss of the populace, at the news of
the German retreat.
The streets, the dispatches say, are full
Of people, all too overjoyed to express
emotion by noise or singing. but men
are seen embracing each other with
fevror. while women give vent to their
feelings by crying quietly.
Everybody Is amazed at the unexpected
change in the tide of war and the fullest
credit Is given General Pau, who Is re-
garded as having, by prompt and decided
strategy, changed the face OF the cam
paign.
Everybody is asking what the Germans
will do: whethey they will be able to
reform their forces and make a stand
and what will become of the Crown
Princes army, tangled up in the wooded
Argonne region.
1t is understood that the factor which
brought about the changes in the fortune
of war was the new army which General
Pau formed quickly and quietly at Ver-
sailles, composed OF some of the best
troops from the eastern frontier and a
fine body OF cavalry. This army marched
through Paris northward and then turned
northeast. Its effect was felt at once.
