London, July 3.-The reserves which region to check the Franco-British of fensive began to make themselves felt yesterday afternoon and last night, ac- cording to latest reports received here. The fighting reached a pitch of ex- ceptionaI desperation but nevertheless, the German efforts to check the allied advance failed. The Franco-British allies, these reports say, retain the initiative unimpaired and, as the re- suit of the days fighting, have ma teriallly advanced their line and strengthened their hold oon what they had previously won.
 The capture of Curlu, especially in view of the progress made south of the Sonme, represents a great step forward, for the village bars the road leading to the only points where the river can be passed. The French troops have now before them on the road to Peronne, their goal, a series of hummocks, each of which is crowned by a village ending in a narrow pla- teau.
 The British on their part have made steady progress toward Ba- paume, which is an important center on account of the intersection there of the main highways, which apparently re their objective.
 SAYS ATTACK TERRIFYING"
 Paris, July 3-"General results eX- cellent' is the verdict of the Partisan press on the achievements of the sec ond day of the great Franco-British offensive. All the newspapers assert that what has been accomplished Is rather more substantial than sensa- tional. They declare that the mis- take made in the Champagne will not be repeated, that men cannot fight until the ground has been prepared, so far as humanly possible, by artil- lery. No section of the Franco British forces was advanced beyond the line assigned to it, they say. how ever, tempting might have appeared the chance of smashing further lines.
 The story of an artillery corporal who was wounded while in an obser- vation post at Marcourt is cited to show that this method is sound. The corporal said:
 "I was able to see for myself that our losses were quite small and I not only hope but am certain that our

DEUTSCHLAND MAKES z
QUICK PASSAGE HOME
Submarine From America Ar
rived Sunday Off Mouth
of the WeSer
nv Associated press.l

BERLIN, Dec 11.-CBy Wireless.)-
The German commercial submarine
Deutschland. completing a quick voyage
home from the United States, arrived at
noon Sunday off the mouth of the Weser.
The arrival of the Deutschland at a
German port marks the successful com.
pletion of the second round trip of this
commercial undersea boat to the United
States. On her voyage just finished she
made the passage in 10 days, having left
New Nondon on November 81. This bet
tered considerably the record of her
previous eastward trip, which, starting
from Baltimore took her % days. Her
two westward voyages occupied respec-
lively 16 days and p days.
The Deutschland. which is the only
commercial craft of her type that has
succeeded in reaching this country from
Germany, was forced to make two starts
from New London. On her first attempt
on November II she cOllided with an es-
corting tug and had to put back to port.
The Deutschland on both of her trips
brought valuable cargoes, chiefly of dyes
and chemicals. On ner present voyage
she took a cargo estimated at $2,0OO,OO0
in value and official mail for Germany.
