With the American Army In France.
April 10.-The American railway en-
gineers who helped stem the tide Of
the onrushing Germans during the
opening days Of the battle now in
progress fought shoulder to shoulder
with Canadian engineers In carrying
out their task. They held their ground
stubbornly and only retired to previ-
ously prepared positions when forced
to do so and inflicted casualties by the
thousands upon the Germans as they
advanced in close formation, In one
place in as many as seven waves, each
wave ten men deep and 100 yards
apart
Guns Too Hot to Hold.
The Americans with the Canadians
had all the ammunition they needed
and, although they were unsupported
by the artillery and armed only with
rifles and with a few machine guns,
they poured scythe]ike streams Of bull
let's into the enemy at several different
times, until the weapons were so hot
as to be useless.
This handful of American soldiers
who were not hardened to such terrific
slaughter, was sickened by the sham
bles 1t created, but fought furiously
for several days, helping to hold the
enemy all the way from st. Quentin
to the vicinity Of Noyon. These were
the Americans mentioned at the time
In the Official communicates, but these
details Of their exploits 1t has only
now been possible to secure.
Throw Down Tools.
When the German attack began the
Americans were working In the rear
lines with the Canadians, under Ca
madam command They quickly threw
down their tools and seized the
weapons with which they had been
armed for some months, and formed
themselves into fighting unit.
The Germans came on, and finally
reached the positions where the Amer
leans were waiting.
AS the first gray enemy advanced
the American forces let them come un-
til they were within certain range,
then opened fire, pouring In a storm Of
bullets.
A British officer who witnessed the
engagement ID reported to have said
"They held on by their teeth until
the last moment, inflicting terrific cas-
ualties on the enemy Then they
moved back and waited for the Ger
mans and repeated the performance. !"
Get Much-Meeded Rest.
By the time the engineers had
reached place somewhere near
yon they were nearly exhausted and
almost without equipment. There they
were given chance to rest and re-
