FOE SHIPPERS DRIVEN
OUT OF FISMES

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES,
Aug. e.-Although the town Of Ffsmes
Is held by our troops, German snipers
are still concealed in the buildings and
cellars. Americans on both sides OF the
Vesle are mopping up these snipers and
stray machine guns. Our advance forces
are likely to continue beyond Fismes
and let the rear elemehts finish the
nopping-up operations.
American cavalry is patrolling the
F1smes region. Rain is still falling. and
all roads are semi-rivers. Fields are
soft under foot. men and horses sinking
deep into the mud at every step. The
banks Of the Vesle are more marshy
than ever, making operations slower and
more difficult.
In spite Of these handicaps the Amer
leans continue to feel out the German
line. constantly pressing forward. The
Nesle in this region is about fifteen
meters (about fifty feet) wide. and is
swift and dweep. Crossings were made,
however. over partially wrecked bridges,
the men climbing over the wreckage
that still protruded above water.
