German Retreat stops.

The Germans apparently are emu
ing their retreat along the front IN
France and are prepared to give bat
tie everywhere to their oncomlng foes.
Paris reports that between the Somme
and the Disc the Germans made sue e
cessive violent attacks against the
French troops holding the east bank
of the ST. Quentin canal, but that
the French machine guns stopped
them. Attacks also were delivered by
the Germans near La Fere and be-
tween the LaOn road and the RIVER
Aisne but the French barrage broke
them up.
London reports that from the south
of Arras to the west of st. quentin,
along the entire British front, the
Germans are stiffening their resist
ance increasingly. The only advance
nv the entente along the French front
is claimed by the French, who crossed
the Ailette river at several points.
Berlin asserts that on both sides OF
the Somme and Disc rivers engage
ments between Germans and entente
advanced detaChments have resulted
favorably for the Germans.
Activity in wilma Region.
There has been renewal of actlF-
ity on the Russian front in the Nllna
region. Here the Germans advanced
over a front of 2h miles east of
Ida and captured 225 Russians ana
a number of guns. Petrograd admits
the advance but says that later the
territory was retaken. In Gallcla'
near Brody, German attacks nave
been repulsed.
The Turks in Persia are still in re-
treat before the Russians, says Petro-
grad. A.,
The entente allies are still on tne
offensive in Macedonia, but BerIlh
says attacks north of Monastir nave
been repulsed. Artillery duels and
minor infantry attacks continue in the

Where the retreat will stop appears
to be unknown even to German pris-
.oners, who make widely varying state
monts. All, however, agree, that Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg is the leader
of the whole German policy. Their
respect for his name Is shown by the
fact that even after they are taken
prisoner they stand attention when
ever his name is mentioned.
