YANKEE ADVANCE
sus MORNING .ouEs.. -rr.,., ....ro w'1sl


With the American Forces on the
Aisne- Marine Front, July 10 g p. M,
by the Associated Press,) One of the
towns taken by the Americans last
night was VierZy, six miles south OF
Soissons Towns to the north and
south of this were also taken in the
carrying out of the plan to straighten
the entire line on the Soisso ons-Chateau
Thierry front.
No resistance was offered at Vierzy
or in the neighboring villages taken.
At two villages on the southern por-
ton of the line, the hands of the
clocks had been stopped by shell fire
at 4:45 o'clock, indicating the time
the allies had started their lombard
ment on Thursday morning.
One of the greatest surprises for the
fensive was the flight of the Germans
before the attack. The Americans,
many of whom were going over the
top for the first time, were fully pre-
pared for a stiff fight and as the hour
went on without a German counter
blow, they began to wonder when the
enemy would retaliate.
Among the slightly wounded men in
the American dressing station was one
lad who left Chicago school to join
the army. This youth had been wound
ed in the leg and his chief worry
seemed to he that his comrades who
had gone on would fear that he had
been killed

ALLIED SUCCESS
CHANGES ENTIRE
PLANS Of ENEMY
Germans Must Handle Sup
plies 20 TO 80 Miles by
Road; viii Have to Fight
Hard TO Stave Off a Rout,
~ aosa.o jooassl .-se.A. tsAs,s ~s~si

London, July 19-The success of
the Franco-American counter-offen-
sive has altered the entire situation on
the Champagne front. The German
line from Chateau Thierry TO Rheims
is dependent on railroads which the
French dominate. Supplies for the
German forces round Chateau Thierry
must now be carried twenty to thirty
miles by road.
The Germans will not have to dis
continue all plans for the offensive
here, but probably will be forced to
fall back to a new line where the
problem of supplies can be handled
easier.
The German offensive thus has
been turned into a repulse and may
now be turned definitely into a Ger
man defeat.
The initiative is in the hands of the
French.
The Germans will have to fight
hard to stave off rout and to extri-
cate themselves. This means that the
entente allies definitely have settled
with the crown prince and have COM
pletely neutralized his group or
armies.
Used Thirty Divisions i'm Week.
In the past week the Germans have
used more than thirty divisions. of
which number twenty-three We're
from the general reserve. The using
up of these twenty-three general re-
serve divisions is one of the most sat
isfactory features of the weeks work,
for they have been exhausted in a
wholly abortive enterprise and have
lost very heavily
Crown Prince Rupprecht's group
of armies in the north. on the front
from Montdidier to the English chan
mel, however, remains almost intact.
The most likely strategic effort by
the Germans at the present time is to
speed up big offensive by these
troops against the British front. The
Ravarian crown prince will presum-
ably lend only enough troops to the
German crown prince to avert disaster
in the south. reserving his own fresh
forces mainly for big counter-stroke
elsewhere.

Washington. July 26---'The navy
department early this morning re-
ceiyCd Information that two steam
ships which are proceeding to an un-
named port have aboard f,I56 Officers
md men of the United states cruiser
San Diego. These are i'm addition TO
the one officer and thirty men pre-
viOusly reported landed. The men are
said TO he in good condition and so
for as known, none was injured.
Washington, July 19.---Announce-
ment by the navy department tonight
that the armored cruiser san Diego
had been sunk today off the Long
Island coast indicated that German
submarines may again be operating in
American waters The cause of the
vessels destruction and the casualties
that may have resulted were unknown
at n late hour.
The vessel itself was not regarded
as a serious military loss. If she was
a victim of enemy submarines. it is
obvious that the U-boats are in the
transport lanes and close to the en-
trance of New York harbor, for the
San Diego went down ten miles south
east of Fire island
Until the statements of survivors
definitely establish that the vessel
was sunk by a torpedo. there will be
u possibility that she struck a drift
| ing defense mine or was sent down by
accidental internal explosion.
Navy Department Statement.
The only formal statement issued
| by the department was based on first
reports. 1t follows:
THE navy department has received
| reports from the third naval district.
| stating that the U, S. s. san Diego was
sunk ten miles southeast of Fire is
land light at 1880 o'clock this morn
/ ing. one officer and two boats were
landed at life saving station Ne. SO
on Long Island. other survivors are
in boats and four steamers are stand
ing by.
so far as can be ascertained there
appears to have been no loss of life.
The cause of sinking has not yet been
determined. The San Diego was an
| armored cruiser of 1860 tons dis
placement and carried u complement
of Liza officers and men,
Late tonight the navy department
would add notiIing to this statement
and officers proressed TO have no in
formation as "a the cause of tie loss
or the number of survivors. 1t was
apparent officials were prepared to
hear some lives were lost.
Return Not Unexpected.
The return of raiders was not un-
expected. The San Diego was the
first major ship to be lost since the
country entered the war. None but
commercial coastwise ships fell prey
to the submersibes on their first raid
and in the war zone none but destroy
ers, transports and small patrol boats
have been successfully attacked
Despite reports OF attacks on other
ships and that warnings had been sent
to coastwise shipping to keep close to
the coast. naval officials steadfastly
maintained they had no information
on which TO believe that the subma-
rines had come again. The sinking
aroused the war spirit in the capitol
more than the news Of the great drive

Saratoga Springs n. Y, July 49,
The New York republican state con
yention suddenly adjourned today
leaving unanswered many questions to
which replies were eagerly awaited.
Chief among these was whether
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt would en-
ter the race for the governorshir
The prevailing belief was that he
would.
The part played by tho women dl-
agates was not insignificant. Fully one
fifth of the 1904 delegates were new
voters and woman, Miss Mary Gar
rett Hay of New York, was made
chairman OF the resolutions commit
tee
Women figured in one incident that
was out of harmony with the rest OF
the session. This was when a delega-
tlon of the more militant national wo-
mans party displayed from the bal
comics banner demanding the sup
port of United States Senator Wads-
worth for the federal suffrage emend-
ment, or his resignation. At the dlrec-
ton of Chairman j. Sloat Fassett, the
banner was taken away from the wo-
men and crumpled up, but not until
they had struggled futilely to keep its
message before the delegates.
The platform adopted declared for
