too, the Americans came into action,
helping the French to repulse heavy
attacks.
Along the vesle the Americans had
some severe fighting during the week.
They attacked Bazoches, gained q
foothold there and chung to It; but at
the same time the Huns attacked Ffs-
mette in force and compelled the
Yankees to fall back. The enemy,
however, was not permitted to cross
the river. This little reverse was not
considered by General Pershing to be
Of especial Importance.

Over In Germany the effects OF Mar
shall Foch's successes became 0
apparent daily. The press and certain
emissaries Of Hindenburg and Luden-
dorff endeavored to explain away the
German defeats or to minimize them,
but the murmurs of the people grew
louder. Their confidence in final VIC
tory is waning rapidly, despite the
pan-German organs, which violently
prod the faint-hearted. Dispatches
from neutral sources indicate that Ber-
lin will soon launch another peace Of
fensive, offering to give up Belgium
and northern France. It Is against
Just such an illusory proposition that
the wise men of the allies are warn
ing the people. Nothing would suit
Germany better just now than a peace
on such a basis; but nothing should
or will suit the allied nations except
a peace dictated by themselves after
the military power Of the Hun has
been utterly broken. The peace Of
compromise, leaving Germany the pow
er to make a new and more terrible
war in future, Is sure to receive the
support Of the influences in the country
that are controlled by the insidious
German propaganda, and 1t Is against
this that America must especially
guard itself.
SPANS threat to seize informed Ger
man shipping to compensate for
Spanish losses by submarine warfare
had its effect in Berlin, for though
the German government did not yield
entirely, it made 1t plain that It want
ed no more countries added to the list
of it's enemies. While the discussion
was going on, however, another Span
ish vessel was torpedoed, and the sit
nation became yet more critical.
Indirect advices from Austria-Hun-
gary emphasize the desperate inter
nal condition Of that empire. The b.
hemians appear to be on the edge Of
organized revolt, and they would re-
ceive the support of the Slovaks. Aus
tria and Hungary are in a perpetual
quarrel. The former has now forbid
den the export Of pharmaceutical sup
plies to Hungary, and the latter has
retaliated by ordering that its food
supplies shall go only to Hungary and
the army.
After a slight setback, the cause Of

er made good progress during the
week. At first the bolsheviki forced
the allies on the Ussuri front to retire,
but re-enforcements anne UP, indud
ing Japanese and American troops,
and the satisfactory conditions were
re-established in quick order. The
bold attempt of General Horvath, self
styled dictator Of Siberia to execute a
coup d'etat and gain control Of all the
Russian military forces in the far
East was blocked by the allies, whose
representatives at Vadivostok in
formed General Pleshkoff, Horvath's
emissary, that the allied nations would
countenance no government not In &C
cord with the wishes Of the people
-ieanwhile che allied expedition was
strengthened by the arrival of more
Americana, and Italy announced it
would send a regiment there. The
Japanese forces took control Of the
Nanchurian border, China having with
drawn her objections. The Japanese
engaged the bolshevih near Dauria,
and General Semenoff, antJbolshevik
leader of Cossacks, crossed the Siberi-
an border and captured Matsievski
station. .-.

some trouble, has been dispersed and
