GERMAN OFFENSIVE
 ON PARIS ENDS IN DEFENSE OF GAINS
Prussians in Chateau Thierry Sector Forced to Rerea, Several Miles; Hun Artil- lery Opens Up Again

Tn the battle field of the Marne where week ago the Germans were hurling their masses of troops against the western side of the wedge they had driven into the allied lines in the battle that began on May 26. the Teu- tons are now standing virtually on the defensive in the Chateau ThierTy sec tor.
 American and French troops are participating in a reaction on the ex- treme tip of the salient and are mak- ing progress in this important region The British are engaged on the other side of the wedge between the Marne and Rheims.
 Report Many Gains
 While the operations take the nat ure of local attacks, they have had ! their effect in driving the Germans back from the points they reached or | the crest of the wave that carried them far on the road to Paris. The attacks. which began just to the north east of Chateau Thierry, are spreading Eorthward along the line and every where the allies report ground recOv cred from the enemy.
 The rush of the American marines and the French on Thursday afternoon 1 has not continued to gain ground as | fast os it did at the inception of the movement but it is still going on Tn | the meantime they have withstoOd ! two violent attacks by the Germans and have repulsed the enemy in de- cisiye fashion
 Reports from the whole battle line in France ere to the effect that there has been renewed activity on the part of the German artillery in several sec tors of the front Notable among the regions under bOmbardment is the line between NoyOn and Montdidier
 Strategic Value of Ground It is along this line that a heavy enemy offensive has been expected by military experts since the momentum of the German advance from the Aisns
 has died away When ,he Germans
 pushed west from St Quentin late in March and early in April. the line from |, NovOn to NOntdidier was almost equal in importance to that in front of Am iens. The French forces were rushed
 to this front and fought savagely to
 stop the German advance and retake ground which was of strategic and tao teal importance.
 At the same time. the Woevre sec totr just to the southeast of VerdUn is claiming attention Large move ments of enemy troops in the direction of St Mihiel have been repUlsed by aerial observers and there are indica-
 tions that the positions of the Ameri- cans along this part of the front may he in the storm center of terrific at tack soon.

AN ATLANTIC PORT, June S. Racing at full speed for nearly a week to escape German submarines an American steamship arrived to- day from the West Indies with 59 passengers, more than half of whom were women and children.
 With the first inkling that U- boats were at work, the captain ordered the engineers to get up every pound of steam possible and then ran far off the route usually followed. Life boats were pre- pared for instant lowering and passengers warned that if they ap- peared on deck they would be thrown into irons.
