DREADFUL PRICE
FOR SMALL GAINS
GERMANS RUN INTO SLAUGHTER
HOUSE IN THEIR NEW
OFFENSIVE.
CHECKED ON BOTH WINGS
Powerful German Smash Has Not
Brought Enemy Results He Had
Expected-Desperate Assaults
With Masses of Troops.

With the French Army in France
Fighting in this war probably never
has been more severe than that going
on in the great battle of French and
German armies between Montdidier
and Noyon.
The Germans, attacking on a ground
where the entente allies were ready to
receive the shock, have found them
selves thrown into slaughter house,
whence most of them never will make
an exit.
At the conclusion of the first "a
hours of the new battle the impress
sion gained is that the powerful Ger
man smash has not brought the enemy
the result he expected. The allied
line is bent in the center quite insig-
nificantly, and the resistance the
French are opposing on the actual
position of the combat appears to be
efficacious. Extreme violence was
the dominant note of the first day and
desperate assaults with huge masses
OF troops seem likely to continue for
some days.
When the masses of German infan-
try came over entente allied troops
spread lightly in the forward works
fell back coolly, fighting yard by yard
to the actual line of resistance.
After the German infantry had start
ed, four hours of the most intense
fighting had brought them only partly
across the allied advance zone, They
were battered thoroughly by the allied
artillery, whose target was so plain
that the enemy's losses must have been
frightful with very little to compen-
safe him for his sacrifices.
When the German infantry began
coming over in the densest masses
they encountered Immediately an ex-
tremely hot fire from both machine
guns and artillery, which moved them
down. Ever since, as fresh waves en-
tered the conflict they were subjected
TO similar punishment,
The German progress must not be
taken to mean that the German forces
have overcome the defenders, who in
tended from the beginning to retire to
their actual lines OF combat as soon
as the action developed.

GO THROUGH THE HUN LINES
American Marines Attack the Germans
Penetrating Enemy Lines on
6ooyard Front.

With the American Army In France.
The United States Marines attacked
the Germans after daybreak and pene-
trated the German lines for about two
thirds of mile on a 600-yard front
In the Belleau wood, northwest OF
Chateau Thierry. The Germans now
hold only the northern fringe of the
wood.
The Americans captured two minen-
werfers, which are the largest pieces
yet taken by them. 1t is expected
that one will be sent to Washington
and the other to Annapolis. .
Major Edward J. Cole, commanding
the machine gun battalion. captured
several German stragglers during the
early stages Of the attack. Numerous
machine guns, 1t is believed, will be
rounded up in the woods.
The Ninth and Twenty-third Regi-
ments of Infantry, comprising what is
known as the Syracuse brigade. hold
the ground on the right Of the marines
at the point Of the front nearest Pari5.
This is the second time the Syracuse
brigade has held the point on the line
nearest the capital, the former oc-
casion being at the offensive when
the allies were still falling back, and
the Ninth and TwenW.third went in
at Coulomb for a short time. The
Twenty.third captured machine guns
June 6, while supporting the attack
by the marines.
