Sann1ies Repulse Germans
at Cantigny and LuneuiAe
PRAISE FOR THE
NOTABLE GAIN
OF THE SAMMIES

OF almost as great interest as the
A4sne. battle is tie situation around
the little town Of Cautigny. where the
Americans made 4 notable gain In
their first "solo" attack against the
Germans Tuesday. Numerous coan-
ter-attacRs have been launched against
the Americans holding CautiSny and
the outlying positions, but all OF them
have met with the Same result-fanure
and tho loss Of many men killed and
wounded. Evidently the Americans
are prepared to dispute to tho last de-
gree their occupancy Of the hiSh
ground they have won overlooking the
plateau east Of Cantigny.
Unsttnted praise has been showered
upon tho Americans by military onoers
for tho dash and daring they showed
when they left their trenches and
started out in quest OF their objee-
ttves.
Still another defeat haS been tnhict-
ed on the enemy by the Americans
this time FAR to the east, in the Tou
sector. Here tho Germans let loose
largo quantities Of gas near Bre1nenn
and delivered an attack, which the
Americans shot to pieces with machine
guns. Later, on another sector. under
4 heavy barrage IRE, IA Germans nau-
aged to invade an American trench
Mono Of them returned. In hand to
hand lighting nine Of tho Germans
we're killed outright and one died later
from his wounds. The other four wero
made capttves.
