WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON THE
VEsLE FRONT. Aug. % tdelayed).- A
number of fres were reported late
Thursday and during Thursday night
within the German lines between the
Vesle and the 4isne. American officers
are of the opinion that the Germans are
burning buildings and material which
they do not want or have not time to
move.
French and American observers sew
eral days ago reported heavy move
ments of enemy infantry and trucks
northward. Prisoners captured by the
Americans in the last few days asserted
they knew nothing about troop move
ments between the rivers
'The continued pressure of the French
and British on the fifty mile front north
of Scissors and other developments lead
American officers to believe that the
Germans will be forced to withdraw
from the line of the Nesle.
German prisoners say that the gen.
eral opinion among the German soldiers
Is that Germany cannot win a decisive
victory. They believe that Germany
will endeavor to hold on In an endeavor
to obtain a peace by negotiation.

LONDON, Aug. 24.-How a detachment
of American machine gunners contrived
to take part in the recent fighting on the
British front Is told in a letter from an
officer commanding n Canadian machine
gun section. The letter says:
I'VE had a large number of American
machine gunners attached to our section
for instruction. When orders for the
attack came our Colonel, who regarded
the Americans as insufilciently trained
for participation. issued strict orders to
the Americans to remain behind during
the attack. We were well across into
German territory when suddenly Ameri-
cans appeared in the thick of the fray
on the right flank. They had been left
behind according to orders, but re-
mained behind only about two minutes
and then took matters into their own

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON THE
VEsLE FRONT, Aug. 24.A-The diminished
activity of the German artillery north of
the Vesle gave rise to-day TO the sus-
picion that the enemy was preparing TO
abandon the ground south of the Aisne
before being compelled to do SO by the
rapidly menacing Allied flank movement
north OF Soissons.
Only minor ella shes between patrols
marked the day. One prisoner was taken
by the Americans.
Observers reported to-day that the
German long range cannon north of the
Aisne were firing in the direction of
Scissors, They also reported seeing
smoke from fires which burned all night
at various points between the Vesle and
the Aisne.
Prisoners recently taken assert they
are unable to explain these fires. which
have been burning for three days. Belief
is growing here that the Germans are
being forced to withdraw north of the
Vesle.

living Germans may be captured there

Bapaume Doomed to Fall.
In the advance on Bapaume the VII
lage of Avesnes-lez- Bapaume. just at
the edge OF the larger town. has been
reached. IT seems certain that Bapaume
will fall at an early date. but more
heavy fighting Is expected here. British
troops have advanced TO point north
of Mory and have also entered Croi-
stiles. which is some miles east of the
Arras- Bal paume road and probably
marks the peak OF the advance eastward
in the northern battle zone. y
There has also been fighting north OF
the River Scarpe to-day and the British
here have made progress. penetrating
the old German front line for more than
500 yards. The British attacked Given
chy and recovered the old front line
from which they retired during an at
tack last evening.
While Field Marshal Haig's men
pressed forward with mighty strides on
the main battle front to-day they had
to fight for every yard OF ground. Con-
siderable numbers of guns and prisoners
have been captured all along the line
and the British have again inflicted the
heaviest possible casualties on the
enemy. The ground over which the bat
tie has been fought was invariably lit
tered with dead Germans.
Germans Becoming Ratified.
Still fighting a losing battle. the Ger
mans are unquestionably becoming dis
organized and ratified. Officers who have
been taken prisoner have mentioned re-
cent reverses and especially the defeat
which is now being suffered. and said
that Germany was willing TO give any
thing for peace.
These statements are OF value only as

ing to look upon the war now going
against them.

AN ATLANTIC PORT. Aug. "a. - The
bodies OF seven coal passers were taken

was reported they were victims of the
explosion Of a steam pipe on board the
transport and that several seamen were
injured at the time. The military au-

Fourteen men were in the auxiliary
coal room OF the ship at the time the
explosion occurred. Seven of these es-
capped injury. The other seven were
scalded to death.

local operation or the beginning of a
more important movement cannot now
be foretold
There can be no doubt that prior to
the British attack in Picardy the Ger
mans were contemplating retirement
but that they intended to take their
time. The British attack had the eff
feet OF hustltng the enemy and in pre-
venting him from carrying out his plans

LONDON. Aug. 24.-The great bat
tie in Picardy, for which the pre-
liminary operations are about COM
pleted, has reached already an, in
tensity seldom If ever cqualled in
France or elsewhere. AS regards the
southern or French section informa-
tion is scanty and vague, but there
is no doubt that great operation Is
in preparation in connection with the
new French salient driven into the
German lines east of NOyon. while
in the north the British are pushing
ahead vigorously in their new wedge
between Arras and Bapaume.
The immensely strong position of
Thiepval, five miles southwest of
Bapaume, is reported in the hands of
the British to-day. The place is of
the highest Importance because it is
located on high hill and dominates
all the country about it; the Ger
mans believed it to he impregnable.
A little further south Bray. on the
north bank of the Somme. about
which the fighting has been exceed.
ingly heavy for several days. was
captured, according to the report of
Field Marshal Haig tonight.
New Zealanders, striking in the di-
rection of Bapaume, have captured
Cojeul with irresistible dash. says an
official statement issued by the War
Office shortly after midnight.
Many More Made Prisoners.
In the last three days the British
have taken $4,000 prisoners and since
the beginning OF the Allies offensive
on July i8, period of five weeks, the
is we'll over 100000, according to re-
v.sed estimates made public in Paris
to-day, besides. about 1000 guns.
The capture of Noyon is regarded
in Paris as imminent; it could have
been taken at any time in the last
week but apparently Marshal Foch's
plan is to enter the city without any
severe fighting, and he is merely
awaiting the most favorable moment
The French are within a mile of the
place and their guns command all its
approaches. In the north Bapaume
Is in much the same position, al
though there it Is likely that stiff
fighting will precede the capture of
the place, which is of vital importance
to the Germans.
The capture of Noyon and Bapaume
by the Allies will make the German
position untenable throughout the whole
of what is left of the old Amiens salient
and compel their withdrawal to the old
Hindenburg line or beyond it, The
British advance to the eastward to-day
brought them into the village or
Avesnes, which is in the outskirts Of
Bapaume.
