SPAIN HEARS THE TRUTH.
War Correspondent Tells OF Magnl'
tude of American Effort.

Washington, D. c., Aug. G.-All
Spain is being stirred by series OF
articles, dealing with the magnitude
of American effort in the war appear
ing in "a 3 C" the strongly pro-
German newspaper, according to a
cable received yesterday by the Com
mttee on Public Information from It's
representative in Madrid. :.
The articles are contributed by Joe
MARTINEZ RIM, novelist and literary
critic, who is the first Spanish writer
to visitithe American front. Only his
pre,.eminent literary position has in
fiuenced the paper to publish the art
icles, says the dispatch, and the writer
is being violently. attacked by: other e:r
pro-German papers. ~ =
RIM, who uses the pen name
".Azorin," has declared, according to
the dispatch, that he will use the full
strength of his pen TO make his coun.
try 'know the truth about the United
States" He added:
"In 1898 we suffered a disastrous
disillusionment because of our own
ignorance. 1t shall not occur again If
7 can prevent it. The future of Spain
is bound up with the future of Amer
lea and this truth must be recognized

RETREATING GERMANS
Bridges Over The Avre And Ancre
DESTROYED And Roads Dynamited.

With the British Army in France,
Aug. 6.-AdVanced lines on sector
nearly half a mile long north Of La
bassee canal have been evacuated by
the Germans. and the British have
pushed forward and occupied this
ground.
Following the withdrawal of the
Germans in the region of Albert, ali
the bridges across the Ancre river
in the region covered by the retire
ment have been destroyed. The Ger
mans are sill holding the river eros
sing in the village of Albert. South
of the town the line now runs from
Dernaucourt to Meaulte, about two
miles to the northeast, and thence to
Albert. This new line is under heavy
fire from the enemy guns.
Further south, along the Avre river,
where the Germans retired from their
positions on the west bank on Satur-
day, all the bridges across the river
have been destroyed and the roads
leading to them have been dynamited.
London, Aug. 6.-Raiding opera
tions were carried out Sunday night
by the British southeast of Arras,
near Neuville- -Vitasse, in which pris-
oners were taken, the War Office an
nounced yesterday.
On the northern front, opposite La
Bassee, the German guns have been
very active. They have shown some
activity also north of Bethune and be-
tween Hazebrouch and Ypres.

GERMANS MOST GLOOMY.
Found in Officers Diary-PrisOner
Says War is Great Massacre.

With the British Army in France,
Aug. 6.-Documents Of the most sig
niicant character, indicating that re-
cent events have brought about an
extremely marked state of depression
in the German Army, have fallen into
the hands of the British. Most signi-
icant of all, perhaps, is an extract
from German officers diary in
which he relates he had been asked by
the divisional headquarters whether
1.-The troops in the line favored peace
or continuation of the war, his an
swer being: %Immediate. peace or
an immediate decisive battle"
This entry was dated ! before the
German drive,for the Maine began.
Hardly less important is a letter
taken from a German prisoner. 1t
was written to him. by another Ger
man stationed along the Marine. 1t
reads:
"You will be in the thick of it now.
Shirk as much as you can. Do not
be stupid. We are risking our lives
only for big victories. Now we are
taking the offensive. on the Marne and
we will never get out of this mess,
Our regiment has been nearly wiped
out and we have not pushed far. The
war is becoming greater massacre
than ever. What is going to happen
don't know. Germany is slowly
crumbling to pieces"
Another prisoner just captured on
the British front says that the official
figures show that 10000 of his com
rades were made prisoners in the
Champagne fighting, but that rumol
along this front is that Go,O0o Ger,
mans and SS guns were lost.
Adding. to the gloom of his division
which realizes that Germany has suf
fered great defeat, the prisoner sait
the food given the men was very poor
He said that poor rations had been es
pecially noticeable for tie last thre'
months. The only time that good foo'
is served, he said, is before the Ger
mans are to participate in an often
sive.

TWO U-BOATS OFF COAST.
One off Virginia And Other in Ca
madam Waters.

Washington, Aug. 6.-German sub
marines now are operating at two
widely separated points along the At
lantic seaboard-one in the important
sea lane off the Virginia coast, where
the American tank steamer C. Z. Jen-
nings was sunk Sunday, and the other
in Canadian waters, where fishing
smacks and other craft have been de-
stroyed.
Presence of another raider in the
waters off the Middle Atlantic coast,
where in May and June upwards of 20
vessels were sunk, became known to-
day when the Navy Department an
nounced the sinking of the Jennings
and the landing of from 80 to %
members of the crew at Norfolk by an
American patrol boat. A second small
boat from the tanker with the cap
tain and IS men is missing. But az
the weather has. been good, officials
confidently hope,it will. be picked up.
Full details of the sinking Of the
Jennings, were lacking last night, but
from the fact that the steamer sent q
wireless message sayingshe was being
skelled and asking for assistance, Of
ficials assumed that the submarine
opened fire without giving the crew
time to take to the boats, though
there was the possibility that he
steamer had undertaken to make a
run for safety. Patrol boats answered
the radio calls, but neither the .Jen-
nings nor the submarine: was in. sight
when they arrived Sunday night at
the position given by the steamer
Later survivors were found.

PARIS BOMBARDED AGAIN.
More Than Once it Has Heralded Hun
Offensive.

Offensive.
Paris, Aug. 6.-The long range bonn
bardment of the Paris region was re-
sumed yesterday morning.
In more than one instance during
the last few months, the opening of a
renewed period of long range shelling
of Paris has been the signal for a
German offensive movement. The
original bombardment began March
23, lust as the first German offensive
in Picardy was getting into swing.
Likewise the start of the recent often
sive on the Ma1ne front was accom-
panied by resumption of the shelling
of Paris, beginning on July Is, after
an interval Of more than month
The firing ceased the day following
and was not resumed until today.
Meanwhile the advancing Allies on
the Aisne-Marne front had uncovered
two emplacements for the long range
weapons. Whether these enplacements
had ever been used is matter Of
doubt. At any rate the guns were
not there when the Allies arrived
| It seems not improbable that if they

they have now been removed to theil

as foremost German authority on
Russian affairs.
DR.. Vorstt, writing in the Berliner
Tageblatt, after his return from an
extended tour of occupied Russia, de-
clared that Russia, all classes, is
thoroughly tired of the oligarchy Of
terror and unrestraint instituted by
the Soviet government"
"Even among the peasants the dis
content is general" DR.. Vorstt stated,
"but the hatred against Germany IS
even greater. The war with Ger
many is not over for Russia. A new
government will be formed. 1t VIII

"Conversing with number OF peo-
pie, "Dr. Vorstt said, "one has feel
ing that one is coming into contact
with widespread plot. Even the
women in the streets speak in unre-
strained tones of hatred against the
invader"
DR.. Vorstt was sent into Russia as
special investigator by the Berliner
Tageblatt and his article has caused
a deep concern among the people in
Germany.
