London, July 1S.-The French
have gained from two to four miles
everywhere on the 25-mile front on
their offensive today between tho
Aisne and the Marne. according to re-
ports reaching London this after
noon.
The French have captured several
thousands prisoners and about twenty
guns.
The French move this morning ap-
peared to have been a surprise to
the Germans The manner in which
this surprise was accomplished may
best be judged from the map which
shows a great area Of forest covering
the ground behind the French lines.
Under cover of these forests General
Foch has been preparing for some
time for the present move.
The Germans are reported to
have made slight progress north of
st. Agnan in the district southwest
of Dormans but their progress has
been slow.
The maximum penetration of the
French lines since July Is is six miles,
according to the latest reports.
North of the Marne the Italians
have retaken Clairizet. two miles
northeast of Bligny, the advices add.
French Strike at Daybrcak.
All the way from Belleau to Aisne
the French attack was launched at
daybreak today. 1t was what the
British call full dress show" with
every department, every weapon
available in play. including the new
French mosquito tanks.
These tanks did excellent work at
some of the most difficult points.
''This is the moment Foch has been
looking for" said a military authority
here today" and If all goes we'll his
splendidly executed counter-attack
should bring the whole German Of
fenstve on the Rheims sector to halt
Immediately"
The French have reached point
menacing the most important German
railway centers which feed the entire
front west of Rheims. The French
artillery is now within easy shelling

be able to make life miserable for a
large section of the German army.

around Scissors and say that If Gen.
eral Foch can get his artillery into
position to keep these lines out of ac-
ton he will make the movement of
the German supplies in the whole
sector between Rheims and Chateau
Thierry impossible.
On the extreme east of the recent
German offensive the French have re-
occupied their old lines for distance
of three or four miles.
North of the Marne the French
have regained the whole of the Rois
wood and the village of Ventouil.
News from the other sections of the
front was good today. The Germans
have nowhere made any progress and
several of their attacks have been
broken up with heavy losses.
West of Rheims the French have
regained an important bit of territory
on the bank of the Marne river. which
enables their artillery to enfilade a
long stretch Of the German lines.

On the French Front in France,
July Is (by the Associated Press).-
Notable work has been done by allied
aviators during the new German Of
fensive. The bombarding, observa-
ton, and battle planes have been con-
stantly busy and the mastery of the
air has been maintained throughout
The air forces constantly harasseo
the attacking columns of the enemy
and supplied information from NOM
ent to moment to the French staff.
One of the principal elements which
worked toward bringing the German
offensive to halt was the splendid
cooperation Of the transport and in
formation service.
In Champagne Lorry drivers passed
four days and nights without nom.
ents repose, hurrying troops from
one section of the line to another,
often under heavy fire.
Carrier pigeons proved most i'm
portant in the Champagne fighting
where the French advance posts were
often cut off from the main body.
The birds constantly brought back
messages concerning movements of
the Germans. In one instance pigeon
brought request that French artil.
lerymen fire on position occupied
by their own comrades, because the
Germans were surrounding them. The
gunners complied, moving lanes in
the German waves. Their wonderful
accuracy of aim spared their COM
rades. many of whom made their way
back
The enormous losses of the Ger
mans during the crossing Of the
Marne must have been fully equalled
in the Champagne sector, where their
assaulting waves were hurled vainly
against deep barriers of barbed wire
under the fire of hundreds of ma
chine guns
