 hands of the allied troops. Besides gaining possession of the heights dom mating SOissOns from the south a couple dozen villages were reconquer- ed by the allies, who tonight were en- gagged in severe fighting which dis concerted the enemy along the whole line from Chateau Thierry to SoissOns.
 LONDON, July 19.-There is a strong note of relief and gratitude in the newspaper comment this morning on General FOch's successful counter stroke between SoissOns and Chateau Thierry, which is hailed as the most cheering news for a twelve month -ows which it is admitted seemed at first too good to be true.
 Hearty tributes are paid to General Foch's strategy while in several of the newspapers emphasis is laid on the view that his success has been due to the reorganiz9 tiCn which placed the allied command under one head.
 The courage and dash of the FrancO- American troops also are warmly praised. The reioieings. however, are tempered by the belief that a fierce German effort will follow as a counter to General Foch's initial success.

eAIN IMPoRTANr POSITIONS

 LONDON, July 1S-The grea { counter attack in which the French and American troops are participating between the Aisne and the Marne has succeeded extremely well. according to the latest advices received here to- night and the situation for many req sons is considered extremely promis- ing
 Owing to the fact that there was no artillery preparation. the action was a complete surprise for the boche. and the enemy artillery reaction was very weak On the ether hand the French counter battery work was exceedingly effective. Enemy aviators entered into the action and attempted to impe- the advance. using their machine guns at a low altitude
 Notwithstanding this. the counter at. tack was not worthy for the reason that the French offensive accomp- lished a great deal more than was achieved by the German drive on both sides of Rheims
 The length of the front over which an advance was made was practically the same. and the French and Amer jeans working together advanced in six hours virtually double the distance covered by the Germans in three days
 So far as known at present the junction line between Soissons and Oulchy Le Chateau and also the june tion line between SOissOns and Fismes are under direct observation and fire from the new French positions on the Crisa Yavfua Those fyvo ara fba only lines by which the Germans in this salient between Soissons and Rheims can be supplied. It is possible. how ever. that the Germans may have suc- ceeded in connecting up their lines in another way.

EXPECT GASOLINE TODAY.
Standard Oil Officials Say Tank
Cars May Reach Here From Bal
timore Before Night.

Relief for the gasoline shortage in
Washington was held out today by Off
ciaIs of the Standard Oil Company, who
said several tank cars of gasoline. on
the tracks between Washington and
Baltimore, are expected to arrive before
nightfall.
AS soon as weather conditions permit
resumption of barge traffic on the Poto-
mac the gasoline supply here will be
greatly replenshed, it was stated. With
the present rail congestion-the worst
since the country went to war-officials
declared it is almost impossible to move
cars promptly, even for a short dis
tance
The situation is easing up somewhat
today" said John z. Walker. local rep
resentative of the Standard Oil Com
pany. THE supply here has been light
ever since the river froze. but relief is
expected today or tonight. Several
tank cars. reported as having started
from Baltimore last week are due here
and we expect the shortage to be re-
lieved"
Three tank cars of kerosene arrived
in Washington last night and were a
welcome addition to the dwindling
stocks Of that commodity here. Off
cials of the oil interests said with the
return of normal weather conditions a
big relief in the situation will be felt
here.

RECOGNITION NOT INDICATED
View at State Department Of Diplo-
mats Call on Lenine.

The conference of diplomats in Petro-
grad with Premier Lenine. regarding
the arrest of the Rumanian minister,
will not be construed by this govern
ment as recognition of the de facto
character Of the bolshevik government.
1t was made clear at the State De-
partment today that while there ex-
lists no question as to the de facto char
acter of the power in Petrograd there
Is no assurance of it's ability to con-
troll large part of the country. and
until the exercise of a much wider in
fiuence is displayed there probably will
be no recognition even as de facto
government.

GERMANY REFUSES
TOQU|T RUSS SOIL
SIav Proposals in Regard to
Occupied Territories Held
Unacceptable.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, via London, January 17.-An
official statement issued here today, Civ
ing the reply by the central powers to
the Russian proposals at Brest-Litovsk
on Monday, says the Russian proposals
concerning the regions occupied by the
central powers diverge to such degree
from the views of the central powers
that in their present form they are in
acceptable.
The official statement says the Rus
sian proposals do not show compro-
missing attitude and do not consider the
opposite parties on just basis. Never
theless, it adds, the central powers
again are prepared to give q clearly
formulated expression of their opinions
and to try to find a basis for con1pro-
mise.
For the central powers, as distinct
from the case with Russia, the an
nounceSnent adds, a conclusion of peace
with Russia has no connection with
general peace and the central powers
are compelled to continue the war
against their other enemies
As to Self-Determination.
THE assertion that the right of self
determination is an attribute Of ma
tfons and not of parts of nations is not
our conception of self-determination."
the official statement declares. 1T
must not be assumed that the limits
of occupation are standard for fixing
the boundaries of such portions"
The AuStro-Germans, the statement
declares, do not intend Incorporating
the territories now occupied by them
into their respective countries
Question Of Vote.
The central powers agreed, it is add
Cd, that vote of the peoples on broad
lines be sanctioned on the basis or
citizenship, but it was declared that
referendum appeared to be impracti-
cable. The central powers think that
vote on wide basis taken from the
electors and supplemented by a rep
resentative body would suffice.
Desiring to reach an understanding
with Russia, the statement continues.
the central powers made the foregoing
far-reaching proposals which represent
the most extreme limits within which
they still hope to reach peaceful un-
derstanding.
The Austrians and Germans, says the
statement, do not intend to compel the
territories in dispute to accept this or
that form of state, but they reserve for
themselves and the peoples of the occu-
pied territories free hand for the con-
clusion of treaties of every kind.
May Reduce Forces.
If military conditions permit, the CEN
tral powers may endeavor to reduce
the size of the occupying forces to such
numbers as are necessary to maintain
order and meet technical requirements
of the country. The setting up of ma
tfonal gendarmerie may be striven for.
Regarding the return to their homes
of civilians who have been removed
the statement says this question may
be examined in benevolent spirit
from time to time, but that it could be
tntrusted to special commission, as it
is not an issue of outstanding importance

WORLD OF SPORTS
Putnam Lost to Soldier Boys

Nearly 800 people gathered at the old fair grounds last Sunday after noon when the boys of the 302nd In fantry from Camp Devens laid aside their khaki suits long enough to don base ball togs and go over the top to victory, puneturing Putnam's strong line of defense And it was a strong line, too, but not quite strong enough to hold Uncle Sam's lads, who have had perhaps more experience as base ball players than as soldiers Any how, they knew how to shoot the horsehide, and if they can get the range as well with their guns, there is trouble brewing for Kaiser Bill and his army when they get across the sea and into the front line trenches.
 It was the opening game of the sea son, and a fitting opening it was. It was one of those old time exciting games that makes the blood jingle and is so dear to the heart of every fan. Not until the last man was out was the game anybody's to a certain ty, for Putnam only had small gap to close up. But small as 1t was it couldn't be did, and the fighting 302d hosed out by one run.
 The scoring started in the first inn ing In fact. Putnams scoring start ed and also stopped there. While the visitors stepped right up to the pan and sent two runs around in the ini- l tial inning. Putnam came forward in their half and went them one better hy getting a trio across.
 For five more innings nothing was hung up on the score board. Then the soldier boys tied the score by get ting a run in the sixth. Both drew blanks until the eighth, when again the visitors added a run and it proved to be the decisive run of the game for they were held runless in the ninth and Putnam could not deliver the punch that would tie the score,
 Mark. Dean and Duggan were in the limehght for the visitors. while Barnacle shone for Putnam The In fantry pulled off couple of fast dou- ble plays that got good hand It was good base ball all the way and the kind that has made the fans hungry for more And they are going to get another feast next Sunday. when the Queen Quality team comes here.

The hits were scattered and did not produce results.
 The only scoring was done in Gros- venordale's half of the first inning, when D. Fountaine singled, Taft famed, Ravenelle hit safe and c. Fountaine brought the two runs over with pretty double.
 Blackmore pitched winning ball aside from this one disastrous inning He got into the hole and his team mates were unable to overcome the two run lead hung up against him in the initial frame

You all remember the great ten inning contest of year ago when the Queen Quality team of Boston jour neyed down to our little city and took the game from Putnam 1 to 0? Of course you do. You have played it over and over this winter as one of last seasons real best bets Here is the answer: Manager Tom McDer- mott has got the same little old Queenie team booked again and they will be right with us on the old fair grounds next Sunday afternoon at 8 o'clock And what the management wants is to have everyone of you with us too If you turn out to see the games there will be some good games to see. All that the management asks is support He will do the rest
 These ladies' shoe makers are the real thing when it comes to diamond shows. They are the champion semi professional team of New England and are out to keep the title this year Now get together and show that you want the sport-good sport continued and make a big gather ing next Sunday.
 Putnam will have Flanders on the mound and Phillips on the receiving end One great old little pair with a good line of the real stuff. Queen Quality will pitch Murray of the Bos- ton Nationals and Connolly will catch Remember last years big event This is going to be another Get there. Get there early if you ecn. But anyway, get there. Manhasset Plays Return Game With
 North Grosvenordsle
 Down on the Manhasset base ball field next Saturday afternoon there will be a regular battle among the cot ton makers Manhasset will enter tain the North Grosvenordale bunch that shut them out in North Grosven- ordale last Sunday to 0. The Man haSset team is not used to being de- feated and when they are they make counter attack, when opportunity offers, that is hard to resist.
 Saturdays game promises some thing big The local mill team Is go- ing good and is deserving of support. It is not trying to make a barrel of money as the admission-gentlemen Is cents and ladies 10 cents-shows. but they would like to get by on the right side of the ledger.
