AMERICANS HOLD
 LINES STRONGLY
,,lo Rut Little Progress in Sois- sons-Rheims Sector, But Hold Aoainst Enemy and Inflict
 Heavy Losses

London. July 30-American troops i, the Soissons-Rheims sector have heer fighting virtually without ces- sation along their whole line for the Jost twenty-four hours. The German aofense had stiffened and the Amerl- oars had made very little fresh pro rrnss mn to noon today, according to S;snatches this afternoon.
 The same was true about all the allied armies from Soissons to Rheims.
 The situation in the American .ortor the latest advices indicate, Is tbat the Germans have retained the town of Cierges, but that the Amerl- ssns are holding Sergy very determ- ;nedly and are inflicting very heavy Iosses on the enemy in hastily or gapized counter attacks.
 Americans Hold on Ourcq.
 With the American Army on the A;sne- Marne Front, July 30.-Un- dor fire from the enemy only slight Iv less than that of yesterday, the ar Americans on the front north of the ourco held on to their positions this forenoon and even advanced a little toward the road from Seringes to Sergy.
 Repeated efforts by the enemy to dislodge the Americans were futile.
 On the Americans left the Frencr are moving forward. To the right the lines are holding steadily.
 Guards that were brought in by the Germans to attack the Ameri- cans yesterday appeared today tc have been withdrawn by the German command.
 The fighting is the heaviest the Americans have experienced. Then conduct is winning the praise of the French observers.
