CHATEAU THIERRY

LONDON.-Th city of Chateau Thierry, an important town on the right bank of the Marne, 3S miles southwest of .Laen and slightly more than forty miles northeast of Paris, appears to be the immediate object i've of the Germans. Desperate fighting is in progress today to the north and east of the town and the Germans are drawing steadily but slowly near the goal and if the position can be taken in it's entirety, the Germans probably will operate from that point in a drive down the Marne toward the capital.
 Chateau Thierry occupies the side of a hill, whose rocky summit is crowned by the ruins (and heavy French -gunsl of the old castle of Tgierry, said to have been built by Charles Martel, in 730. It was the scene of several conflicts during the campaign of 1874 and in 1870 it was occupied by the Germans, and for time was used as the temporary headquarters of the emperor. The town was again occupied By the Ger mans, when the first rush on Paris was made during the present war,

PARIS.LThe great German army, which is advancing toward Paris from +iie Soissons-Rheims line, pushed forward during the night, and the attack continues today with re- doubled violence. The Germans have reached the Marne river at several points and are, pushing advance parties along the north bank of the stream from the north and east borders of Chateau Thierry, as far as Verneuil.
 Having reached the Marne, the Germans are now striking to the westward, ltAeir intention evidently being to eliminate the Montdidiel salient by fpushing it to the westward below Ass%iens, so as to cut off Paris from >the North. The progress ot the drive has been slowed consider ably iand at several points French counter attacks have forced the enemy to give ground. The most vigorous counter was made on the Marne this morning, when a large force of French troops attacked the Germans and forced their retirement from the river bank.

MARSH EXPLAINS
 NEW HUN ATTACK { ON FRENCH LINE
Acting Chief of Staff Says That Allies Were Taken By Surprise
 On Aisne Front.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-General Marsh, acting chief of staff, in statement made today at the weekly conference of the senate military committee, expressed the belief that the Germans had reached the Marne river, in their latest offensive. The Marne, in his opinion, is the present objective and he predicts that they will dig in along the river, and make their preparations for al ater drive on Paris perhaps.
 After establishing themselves on the Marne, he predicts that they will turn their attack to the westward' l for the purpose of consolidating the i Aisne and Picardy fronts.
 The general advised the senators that the situation is serious, with the Germans only fortyfive miles
 from the French capital. The attack
 on the Aisne front, he says, was not
 expected by the Allies, who had only
 seven divisions ready to check the
 advance of twenty German divisioNs
 The territory taken by the Germans
 was thought to be fully defended by the comparatively small Allied force stationed in that district.
