the base of tie mountain we saw
people coming down from Mount
Manitou. We asked the conductors
permission to take one of the empty

had this wonderful trip added to
our list. While it was not as high

the view of the three cities Mani

HUN COMMAND
FEARED FOR IRON
Great Supply Basins Fur
nish Nine Tenth Iron
for Armies.

BY WILLIAM PHILLIP SIMMS
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
PARIS. Sept. 14.-It is unquestion-
ed that Hindenburg expected the st.
MihieI attack. The Straussburg Post
announced several days ago that it
was imminent. Thus American sue
cess cannot be explained away as
surprise even in Germany where the
public has insistently been told that
the Americans are worthless and that
there is nothing to be feared from
those barnums." Wherever the Am
orleans swept forward IT was n case
of the better man winning and it will
be one of Germany's most bitter pills
that the Hun higher command did not
spare its troops in an effort to halt
the Americans and French.
Hoe Fears for Iron Source.
Undoubtedly the Germans feared
less for Metz than for the Briey and
I.ongwy ore basins, for which, with
and the annexed portf-
ons Lorraine, nine tenths of Germany's
iron is obtained. These districts give
the enemy a total of 60.OOO.OOO tons.
without these mines they only have
I 900, 900 tons. Lacking the occupa-
ton of the Briey basin Germany could
not have fought so long. The posses
ion of Briey. Longwy and ThoTnville
are absolutely necessary to Germany
If Teuton troops are TO be kept in the
field. If any of these districts are
placed under allied gunfire Germany
will be crippled that much.
IOch Knows Game.
General Foch's first objective In the
American offensive was apparently
only pinching off of the salisnt. Be-
yond the base of this pocket there is
a powerfully defended country. Line
after lire of trenches, and beyond
that ring after ring of fortitications
all about Metz. Foch knows his
game and the allies know he will play
1t masterfully.
