ABROAD
IS NOT EXPECTED

London, March 26.-The possibility
Of American participation in the war
on the side OF the allies was dismissed
as minor matter by General Won
Stein Prussian minister of war, in an
interview with the Berlin correspond
ent of the Budapest newspaper a
Zest. according to d Berlin dispatch to
Reuters by way Of Amsterdam GEN
eTaI Won Stein said there could be no
question of an American continental
army i'm the near future. He added,
Our military situation on all fronts
is good and Justi6es our best hopes.
1t appears that the enemy is prepar-
ing an offensive but we shall resist
even a stronger attack. not only at
the front but also at home. What
may happen then we do not know but
come what may we shall confront
everything imperturablE. Our suffer
ings are great and our sacrifices 81
gautic, but is is in these things that
she greatness of q nation finds its ex-
preston.
In discussing the battle Of the
S0mme the minister said that the Ger
mans had no lack Of supplies. but
that their guns. as compared with
those Of the enemy, were insufficient.

The battle of St Quentin continues
to rage with undated fury. The hon
ors Of the last q hours lighting have
been with the French. who are push
ing forward in the face Of desperate
resistance by the Germans. The ad-
vance IS slow, owing to the character
of the ground
St. Quentin is protected on the north
west by the 0migHon river, which, al
though only a brook like most Of the
SOmme tributaries, runs through d
broad valley full of swamps and cIumps
of trees which greatly increase its de-
fensiYe value. To the vest the ap-
pr0aches to the city are over d bare
flat plain devoid of any natural OBJ
stacle and with few villages. Here the
French advance Is most rapid. but the
plain uarrOws and ends in d sharp
point at ST Quentin. AS Sayy, the
most favorable point fhe Germans
have built their main defensive line
The German right runs from the Omig-
non river at Eermand to the H0lnon
wood The center lis at Sayv. Against
these two sections the French have SO
far made little Roadway, but on the
German left they have carried the
strong key position on the plateau Of
Essigny and Benay. This section. ex-
tending from the SOmme north Of Ser
anc0urt TO the Disc at Nandeu, which
offers admirable fields Of fire to the
defenders.
