PERIL IN sLAv UPRISING.
Allied Success in Albania May Rssui,
In Revolt In Bosnia.

Washington, July 17.--While mill
tary critics here. and abroad regard the
Franco Italian offensive along the
coast of Albania as OF little moment
from a military viewpoint. some Off
cials regard II as having possibilities
from n political standpoint which ulti-
mately may bear heavily upon the
military situation.
The immediate purpose of the often
sive has not yet been made clear, but
In some quarters 1t Is believed to be
designed primarily for the psycho-
logical effect 1t may have upon the
dlsaffected subjects OF Austria -CHun-
gary in Bosnia and Herzegovina,
toward which provinces the drive Is
headed.
Reports from official sources indicate
tina: the successes attained by the
allied troops already have increased
the hostility Of the Jugo-Slays in
southern Austria who. with the
Czecho- Slovaks and Poles. have proved
thorne in the side OF the dual mon
archy tnruout the war.
In tho opinion OF those officials who
may have made a study OF the situa-
ton, military drive that could bring
the allied armies In Albania into con-
tact with the Jugo- Slavs might lead
not only to an open revolt there, but
also by the dsaffected peoples IN other
parts OF the dual monarchy.
All uprising OF such consequences,
II Is claimed. would have serious ef-
feet upon the whole military situa-
ton. because OF the drain upon the
Austrian army that would result from
returning from the front sufficient
forces to prevent an internal dlsn-
tegration.
At the outbreak Of the war the
Jugo- -Slavs In southern Austria and
Hungary numbered more than 5000
900, while the Czecho Slavs and Poles
In the northern part OF the dual mon
archy numbered more than 10000. 600.
The unrest among these peoples has
been growing. and at places has led
to open revolt.
The oppressed peoples are deter
mined upon freedom. In the official
opinion here. Thousands OF Jugo-
Slavs. who deserted from the Aus
trian armies. are fighting with the
Italians against their old enemies.
while some 10000 Czecho-Slav who
either deserted TO the Russians or
were captured. are heading thru
Siberia to the western front to Join
in the fight against the teutons

The converging attack OF the Ger

leaving his first lines lightly held and
putting the line OF resistance well to
the rear. allowed the German blow to
extend itself on empty space. After
this false stroke the enemy was obliged
to cross deadly zone, where he was
shot to pieces before reaching the real
French line. The French losses were
quite insignificant.

This was message sent by an
American general in command Of
American forces south OF the Marne,
on Monday afternoon, after the Ger
mans had succeeded in forcing the
Americans back toward Conde En- Bri.
A French commander Informed the
American general that the early Ger

that II was understood perfectly that
after hard fighting the Americans had
slowly retired. and that 1t was not ex.

He added that the counter attack
could be postponed without risk and
1t might be better to give the American
troops an hours rest.
Immediately after the American
general sent the above message. which
is quoted by the correspondent OF tho

counter attack and the lost ground was

have pursued their usual tactics Of

Thus the offensive now appears
likely to take on the aspect Of a

Rheims salient.

encountered fresh enemy troops
who appear to have again forced
them back. The battle is continuing
in the slopes and in tho woods
south Of the heights.
Farther east the Germans seem
to have made little or no progress
in their attempt TO debouch from
the Bouqui3ny wood and thru the
village Of NesIes.
North Of the Marne tho Germans
apparently took some ground
northwest Of venteuil, near Mon
Voisin, but a counter attack by
the French elected them from this
locality.
North Of the Marne tho turning
movement against Rheims becomes
quite apparent. On Tuesday the
Germans had been held up at
Chatillon and Rodemat woods.
Since that time they have forged
forward to the northwest toward
Rheims.
Tuesday report tells Of violent
fighting in the courton wood. But
does not give the result Of the
struggle there.
