EXTRA WAR NEWS.

Paris, July 25.-(4:05).-Freneh
and American troops are closing in
on the important German strategic
base of Fere-en-Tardenois from two
sides. While Allied artillery and
airmen are subjecting the city to a
terrific bombardment, the Allied in
fantry is advancing eastward and
northward toward the city, slowly
overcoming the enemy defenses.
The capture of Epieds has en-.
abled the French and Americans to
penetrate to the center of Fere for
est Give miles directly south of Fere-
en-Tardenois.)
A strategic enemy mass estimated
at 20 divisions is expected soon to
aid in a counter maneuver.
The town of Fere.en.Tardenois
was seven miles from the Allied guns
on Tuesday. This explains the
statement that the mouth of the
pocket was only seven miles wide.
The total width of the pocket that
day was % miles wide, but the re-
naming distance was not served
by any railroad.

SUPPLY QUESTIONS
WORRYING GERMANS
Able to Obtain Only Limited
Amount on Account of Allied
Control Of Roads.

With the American Army on the
Aisne-Marne Front, July 24.-Ex-
tremly hard fighting has been going
on along the line south of Scissors,
where the Germans are concentrat-
ing in full strength in order to pre-
vent the further imperiling of their
lines over which supplies might reach
them. But, Notwithstanding the
strong resistance. the allies have
made gain here also.
The main railroad is useless, so
far as the Germans are concerned,
while the allies are reaching many
of the many wagon roads which the
enemy has fought so hard to retain.
The Germans can, of course, obtain
limited supplies, but it is not be-
lieved there will be sufficient to war
rant keeping the big army in the
salient which has been greatly mar
rowed by a week of battle.

Violent Counterattacks
by Germans Fail to
Stop Advance.
SLOWLY BUT SURELY
FOCH MOVES ONWARD
Huns Fight Desperately in Effort to
Save Men, Guns and Material by
Continued Gains All Along
Long Line.

Violent German counterattacks
and rear guard actions in great
strength still fail to save the Ger
man high command as barriers to
the advance of the allied troops on
the soissons-Rheims salient.
They have aided somewhat in
slowing down the fast pace set by
the allies, since the opening of the
offensive but nevertheless, in three
sides of the new "U" shaped battle
front further important gains have
been made.
Driving slowly, but surely, south
Of scissors the American and
French troops have pushed their
fronts further eastward toward that
part of the Scissors CT hateau-Thier-
ry railway line that is still in the
hands of the enemy, and further
south, along both sides of the Ourco
River and the roads leading to
Fere-en-Tardenois, Germany's great
storehouse for the supply of her
troops to the south. Important pene-
trations into enemy held territory
have been made until the maximum
point where the allies are fighting
near Coincy is about ten and one
half miles from their point of de-
parture Thursday.
In the Marne region north of
Chateau-Thierry the Americans and
French have met with the fercest.
kind of resistance for here the Ger
man machine gunners and infantry
mn are striving hard to stay their
progress in an endeavor to extricate
large numbers of the German forces
who are in danger of capture, and
also to save part of the great num-
ber Of guns and quantities of war
materials, which it is impossible to
get out except by the high roads
over the undulating and wooded
country.
Allies Hold Advantage.
The advantage Of the fighting,
however, has rested with the allied
troops, which have pushed on north
ward past the village Of Epieds and
ousted the Germans from the great
er part of Chatelete forst. In this
region the allies now hold the village
of Epieds and Trugny-Epieds, which
were captured by the Germans and,
were recaptured Wednesday in a
counterattack by the Americans.
Pressing on northward the allies
have driven their front beyond Cour-
poll, which lies about six and one
half miles northeast of Chateau
Thierry.

BRITISH MUNITIONS
WORKERS STRIKE
Members of Labor So
cieties to Be Called
From asks.
SOLDIERS
WILL CONTINUE WORK
"Strike and You May Go to He'll,
We Will Remain at Work."
Other Workers Wire.

London, July pa strike of
munitions workers began at Birming
ham at o'clock this evening, the
hour the day workers finished their
work, and when the night shift was
to come on duty, according to a
despatch to the Central News from
Birmingham.
The aggregate membership of the
IL societies affiliated with the joint
committee of the engineering trades
unions is about $4,000, including
about 5000 women. Officials of the
joint committee say they have no
reason to doubt that all the workers
will be loyal to the resolution to
stop work.
A number of discharged soldiers
who are union members inquired of
the officials of the federation of dis
charged soldiers and sailors regard
ing their position. They were ad-
vised not to cease work under any
circumstances owing to the serious
consequence whcih would ensue to
the men in the trenches.
At Lincoln, where the strike was
to become effective tonight unless
the embargo was withdrawn, the
workers agreed to- remain at their
posts pending a decision of the ma
tional conference tomorrow.
The Woolwich arsenal workers
held a meeting today after which
they telegraphed the Coventry muni-
tions workers as follows:
"Strike now and you will earn
the blessings of the Kaiser and his
army of murderers.: But you will
earn the lasting condemnation of
all those who are fighting and work
ing in the allied nations to gain real
freedom for civilization.
"We warn you seriously if you
persist in striking that this govern
ment owes it to your brave BROTH
ers, who are fighting the Germans
with their lives blood while you are
fighting with words and full bellies,
that you be Immediately put in the
front of the firing line and that your
leaders should be shot.
"Strike, and you may 60 to hell.
Woolwich will remain at work and
earn the right to shake the hand of
the soldier when he reutrns."

but a single railway line remaining
in his hands over which to get his
heavy material out of the pocket in
to which he has been forced by allied
and American advances.
The situation was graphically ex-
planned today by General March,
chief of staff, in a midweek confer
ence with newspaper correspondents.
For the last two days, General
March said, the employment of prob
ably ia divisions of fresh German
reserves on the Scissors jaw of the
frap has come in the last few days.
On the eastern jaw front, however,
the enemy has been crushed back

whole position in the salient from

cate his troops. !

General March did not indicate
what development the continued bat
