ALLIES OCCUPY THE
 WHOLE MURMAN COAST
Americans and British Take Rem and Move on TOrOki.- Russian Foreign Minister Pro- Tests Allied Landing.

London, Juluy 15.-American and British troops have occupied the whole of the Murman coast, in North ern Russia, says dispatch from Mos COW to the Central News Agency, by way of Amsterdam.
 After capturing Rem, railroad station on the White Sea coast, the dispatch adds, the American and British forces advanced toward Toro- Ri, the Russian Bolshevik authorities having withdrawn to Nirok.
 The commanders of the entente al- lied forces have issued appeals to the population on the Murman coast re- questing help against Germany and Finland. It is declared that the Mur- man coast is Russian territory under the protection of the entente powers
 M. Tchitcherin, the Russian foreign minister, has addresses a note to Great Britain demanding that the British attachments now on the Mur- man coast be re-embarked without delay, says central News message today from Amsterdam, relaying Moscow dispatch.
 Meanwhile the German are making desperate attempt to secure control of the Murman coast. They need the harbors for submarine bases, now that Zeebrugge has been closed and Ostend rendered of little value, while the British mine fields make it ever more difficult for their submarines to reach the Atlantic.
 The total German force in Russia is 32 German and Austrian divisions. composed mainly of old and inferior men. This force is spread from Pc trograd to the Black Sea.
 In Finland, threatening the Murman the Germans have rather more than a division, but the bulk of his body is in the south and not cas- ly within reach of the Murman rail- way. The railway may, however. be attacked by airplanes.

A few prisoners were talk en. Enemy reconnoitering parties have been repulsed between the slopes of Sasso Rosso and the Bretna River.
 "A new attack attempted at Cor none was repulsed. North of Monte Grappa and in the Montello zone dur ing the day and night the artillery activity has been lively.

 ENEMY TROOPS WHO

Cermans Advance Two Miles Be-
 fore Americans COuntered.- Huns Thrown Into Disorder,
 Leaving 300 prisoners Behind.

With the American army on the Narne. July 15.-Following terrific bombardment early today, we Ger man divisions, under cover of smoke screens, attacked the Americans, crossing the Marne in pontoons in the recion of Joulgonne. They advanced from three to four kiiometers (be- tween two and two and a half miles, in three hours.
 An American counter-attack then swept the Germans back The Ameri- cans executed brilliant turning movement westward, driving the en- emv back to the railroad station, only few miles south of the Marne.
 The most desperate lighting contin- ues. The Americans are pressing the enemy toward the river, while their artillery is concentrating it's fire on smashing the pontoons which the en- emy is continually attempting to re- plenish.
 In their counter attack the Ameri- cans captured German major, two captians, several lieutenants and near ly 500 men. At the same time they released Americans who had been cap tured in the earlier stages of the fight and who had not been sent to the rear
 The French general commanding the group of armies on this sector sent a congratulatory message this aftcrnoon to the American general commanding the forces which beat back the enemy.
 Machine Guns Did Good Work
 At five o'clock this evening the Ger mans were heavily shelling the Amer ican forces, but were getting shell for shell in return and their fire seemed to be diminishing.
 American machine gunners along the river assisted materially in break 'ng up the early Roche plans for they Sturk to their posts and poured deadly streams of bullets into the enemy and only withdren when their guns were so hot they could not be fired. One group of machine gunners happened to be in a place where the Germans Were anxious to erect a bridge, but ther efforts were fruitless. The A merlcan bullets piled up the dead on the opposite side of the river every tune the enemy started to cross.

Port Au Prince, Haiti, July 15.- The council of state, acting in accord ance with powers given it under the new Haitian constitution. has unan- imously voted the declaration of war upon Germany demanded by the pres ident of the republic.
 Haiti is the 22nd nation to declare war on Germany. Seven other coun- tries have broken diplomatic relations Germany severed diplomatic relations with Haiti in June, 1917, after the West Indian republic had protested against Germanys unrestricted sub marine warfare and demanded com pensation for losses to Haitien com merce and life.
 President D'Artiguenave, in a mes sage to the Haitien congress, had re- commended a declaration of war in consequence of the deaths of eight HaitnS on the French steamer Mont real, when that vessel was torpedoed by German submarine.
 The declaration of war was not a. dopted at that time, however, the commission appointed to study the question having reported that there was not sufficient reason.

ENEMY ASSAULT WAS
 DELIVERED ON FRONT
 OF OVER FIFTY MILES
East of Rheims the Huns Met ''Irreducible Defense."-Ger- mans were met by Enfllading Fire and Moved Down.

On the French front in France, July l5.-Some of the severest fighting of the war is taking place today on the front between Chateau Thierry and the Main de Massiges, along front of about 50 miles. The most violent engagements are occurring in the neighborhood of Dormans, on the Marne, where the Germans are at tempting to cross the river.
 The latest information shows the enemy demonstration on the eastern limits of the Champagne is being held by the French army, under the com mand of one of the most brilliant of Frances soldiers, who made his reput- ation in the colonies and at the Dar- danelles.
 The German infantry launched their attack about dawn. They were ac- companied to the east of Rheims with one of the heaviest preparations of artillery ever experienced from the German side. The French, seeing in- dications of the attack coming, how ever, had begun their counter pre- paratiOns an hour earlier.
 Attackers Were Enfladed
 On the north side of the RiverMar- ne, in the woods and ravines, the Ger mans had been able to concentrate numbers of pontoons and lattice work bridges for a passage of the stream. When they approached however they found that their temporary crossing places were being enfiladed and their efforts must cost them the heaviest losses.
 How many German divisions were thrown into the battle was not known yet but it is evident that their reserv- es which had been training far behind the lines were brought forward in large bodies.
 The indications for the present are that the principal enemy effort is be- ing made toward Chateau Therry, but the developments of the operation will, as usual, depend on the measure of success at any section of the line.
