NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
FROM FRENCH AND
AMERICANS
ARE GIVEN NO REST
They Are Attacked at Many
Points by Forces Under the
Intrepid Foch.

Paris, Oct, 2--Bloo9y fighting
took place in the streets of st. Quen-
tin during the night in which the
Germans were thrown back to the
eastern bank of the canal that pass
es through the city, the war Office
stated today.
Important gains were made by
the French north west of Rheims.
Between the Aisne and the Vesle
the French lines were extended.
All of the massif of st. Thiery is
now in French hands while further
ground was captured north of La
Neuvillette. There the French have
now reached the outskirts of Be-
thany.
There were no changes on the
Champagne front.
The latest advance of the British
north of st. Quentin is threaten
ing the retreat of the German line
toward Lecateau, it was learned this
afternoon.
The Germans may be trapped be-
tween Cambrai and the Scarpe and
completely cooped up.
The German line of retreat from
the Disc to st Gouzan is in daner
also.

credit for the success of General
Fochs great smashes on the western
front is due to the armies of Gen
eral pershing and General Gouraud
which began three offensives sew
eral days before activities started IN
other sectors.
General Ludendorff apparently
was led to believe that the Anlo
French drive was to be the sole al
lied offensive. But when the Ger
mans began shifting their reserves
from other sectors to the front, from
Rheims to the Moselle the othel
mailed fists of the allies began t.
strike.

spread Of the epidemic Of influenza
which is sweeping the country, the

to conquer Germany.
The order does not apply to Lib

College would be suspended and that
students would not be permitted to
leave the campus. 1t is not known
how long the college or other places
affected by the order will remain

upon the success which is attained
in checking the epidemic.
