 No noteworthy successes have been scored on the British front The only considerable results have been attained by the French whose offensive as usual was marked by great bravery and dash. Retirement to the second German lines occurred where the French were the op- ponents.
 Tn coincidence with the Anglo French offensive the Russians have developed ac- tivity along the whole northern front. Their activity against the northern Ger man armies for the time being appears merely demonstrative, but vigorous fight

LITTLE DANGER OF
 IMMEDIATE BREAK
Note Understood to Have Been Die tated by Carranza Himself-Says He Is Using Every Effort to Sup
 press Brigandage Along Border

Washington, July 4.-General carranza's reply to the two sharp notes from the Washington government was at the Mex ican embassy tonight and verbal sym opsis, made public with the arrival Of Elizeo Arredondo, Carranza's embassa- dor designate, indicated that it was of an unexpectedly concliatory character.
 The formal communication arrived by telegraph early in the day and only the fact that the Fourth of July was being celebrated by all government departments be presented at the state department to- morrow.
 MT. Arredondo himself spent the day in the country and on his return declined to discuss his governments attitude as now officially stated.
 Lacking the text of the note, it was impossible tonight to say whether 1t would prove satisfactory to President Wilson. Since the release of the Ameri- can troopers taken at Carrizal the ques-
  government and General Carranza has been narrowed to MT. Wilson's desire for a formal declaration of intention toward the American expeditionary forces in Mexico. The embassy synopsis of the new note indicates that a specific statement is still lacking.
 Only close study of the reply will disclose whether it will be necessary to press General Carranza again to affirm or deny the hostile construction placed upon his orders that American troops be attacked if they moved in any direction except toward the border
 TENSION IS RELAXED
 Without doubt the effect of the eni. bassy statement as to the notes charac- ter has been to relax still further the diplomatic tension between the two gov ernments. The release of the Carrizal prisoners already had stripped the situa- tion of it's immediately dangerous charac- ter. It Is entirely possible, however, thst American officials will not fully share the optimistic views of the Mexican em- bassy when they are able to review the language of the Carranza note.
 OUe ldCI StOOu out CIedTly lOul6nl III the minds of officials familiar with Pres ident Wilson's desires and purposes. If General Carranza sincerely desires to find a way for peaceful settlement of the diff ficulties between the two governments, he will be met more than half way. The diplomatic discussion foreshadowed in that event, however, would have to be wholly aside from the steps the Wash ington government deems it necessary to take to protect American lives and prop erty along the border. No proposal for immediate withdrawal of GeneiAl Per shing's troops would be entertained as a preliminary to a further exchange of views on joint operations against bandits
 The embassy synopsis of the latest com munication indicates that the de facto government has sought to bring it's side of the diplomatic correspondence up to date. It is framed as a reply both to the American note refusing to entertain any request for the immediate with (COntinued on Page Twelve)
