LONDON, July 27.-To understand
what is going on as sequel to the
allied victory Of July IS one must APP
preciate that the enemy is trying to
"eXtricate" himself We must under
stand this word extricate. Take an
arc not much more than 25 miles
across and less than 20 miles deep.
Imagine on that arc no less than at
least 8 divisions crammed with their
materials, their accumulated dumps
for shells, their artillery including the
heaviest pieces, their stores Of food
and provisions and all preparations for
what, July Is, was the great offensive
movement.
One must realize that each Of these
80 divisions means at least 5000 infan-
trymen and some 5000 others, less
only by the wounded and prisoners;
and all this huge mass clamped in so
narrow a space is compelled to retire
through two points where the roads
Of the district meet, Fere-en-Tarde-
nois and Ville-en-Tardenois, both Of
which are under direct fire at COM
peratively short range, while the
whole arc is under a converging fire
from every side That is the situation
at the present moment on the Crown
Princes lett. A more expensive one
could not be conceived. The mouth
OF the pocket is not so narrow that
the troops within are doomed

Tended posts. take the heaviest pos
sible toll of the enemy.
The enemy's attack, therefore, when
it came, was something like the thrust
of fencer who over-reaches himself
as his enemy withGraws. But the
metaphor is incomplete, because we
must remember that in this case the
thrust was not only failure but was
also murderously expensive. The prob
ability that the fearful losses the Ger
mans suffered on that Monday, east of
Rheims, were added to by some bung-
ling on the enemy's part. They were
quite exceptionally high, and all that
loss was incurred without anything to
show for it except a mere piece of
ground of little value.
Fought to Standstill
the First Day
Very few prisoners were taken, and
what is really extraordinary, no guns
were captured. while the enemy's fif
teen divisions of shock troops in this
region were fought to a standstill be

rious one. Its gravity was recognized

The second day, Tuesday, the en-
emy's high command. on surveying
the situation, decided it might yet be
recovered. The enemy probably hard
ly thought it possible to make good his
attack east of Rheims. but he still
believed it possible to make good on
the western sector between Rheims
and Chateau Thierry, and to crush in
the salient in that way. To the north
of Dormans, and in the northern part
of the sector between the Marine and
Rheims, is the formidable obstacle
called the Mountain and Forest Of
Rheims-a group of high hills covered
with woods. The enemy could hardly
hope to force this, but he could turn
it by the south or right, and If he

There followed a pause of five
weeks, just like the pause which fol-
lowed the very heavy fighting in Elan
ders at the end of April. This delay
meant several things. 1t meant, first,
that the enemy was recruiting from
his losses; second, that he was rear
ranging his forces for another effort
at some other place; and third, that
while making plans for that effort
he was specially training troops hith-
erto held in reserve so that his shock
when delivered should be finally de-
cisive.
The rate of delivery of American
troops, not only across the Atlantic
to Europe, but actually into the line
as fully trained and effective fighters,
was increasing very rapidly, and
therefore, we may be certain that the
enemy admitted only the very mini
mum of delay possible. He attacked
as soon as ever he could
The day chosen was July IS, and
the front chosen was the fifty miles
between the Main de Massiges and
the Chateau Thierry, of which Rheims
was the center In other words, the
enemy determined, after failing in his
attack against the easier of the two
salents created by his success in May,
to make an effort against the more
difficult one. of which Rheims was the
apex.
Now let us estimate the enemy's
object and what would have happened
if he had succeeded. He had mount
ed" an offensive On a very large scale.
He was attacking a length of line
greater by far than any he had at
tackled since March 81. He had ready
for this attack at least fifty-eight di-
visions, Of which no less than thirty
were to take part in the first blow,
the remaining twenty-eight to be held
in reserve for a following up of his
success the moment breach should
be made in the Allied line.
He had run the risk of long delay,
with the increasing menace Of the
American contingent, only because
such delay ought to have made his
success certain, through the repose it
gave to his troops and the opportunity
for putting in some special training.
The Result Enemy
Had Anticipated.
The two limbs of the sector of his
dLldCh NlHeIe was uO ullcCL assault
launched in the immediate neighbor-
hood of Rheims) were of about equal
length, and they made upon the map
shape like the two limbs of a CON-
pass, very broadly opened, with
Rheims as a hinge. If the enemy had
crushed in these two limbs. or even
one of them, we should have had the
following results:
First, Of course, very heavy loss
Of men and material to the Allies, in
separable from such defeat.
Second, a nearer approach to Paris,
because the enemy's extreme right
near Chateau Thierry, when once
thrown across the Marine, would, if it
broke in the Allied line here, probably
get as far as within bombardraent
range of the capital before the rush
could be stopped.
Third and most important in the
largest strategical view of this mat
ter, his success would have cut the
only remaining good railway system

teau Thierry. The German break
through Scissors and Rheims, had left
the Allies on the left of scissors and
thus thrust them into an awkward
angle which could be attacked upon
both sides.
Second, it had created another sal
lent upon the east, Of which Rheims
was the point. This salient was much
shallower than the other. and its angle
was much more obtuse. its base broad
er and consequently it was less peril

awkward front. which could be attack
ed from the left or the right. east

the sharper one, and more difficult to
hold. If the Boche had succeeded in
breaking it in he would have captured
the great masses of men and material
within the salient. and would have
been able to advance Immediately
within bombing range OF Paris.
His effort to effect this was known
at the Battle Of the Metz. and it was
fought from June to II. He failed

his defensive system to the very gates
of scissors, on the north, and up both
sides of the Ourcq Valley, in the cen
ire. French troops. in the main, per
formed the first part of this operation
and American troops the second.
The use of tanks had a great deal to
do with this result; but the main rea-
son, which is a most interesting point,
was undoubtedly a miscalculation of
numbers on the part of the enemy. 1t
is perfectly clear that the enemy did
not believe the Allies to be possessed
of sufficient forces for a cOunter-Of
fensive. Nothing else can possibly eX-
plain the lack of provision made on
this front between scissors and Cha
teau Thierry
Offensive Completely
Broken Down
The counter stroke was not intend
ed to do more than it did. The Allies
have not yet a superiority in numbers.
They could neither prepare for nor ex-
pect full breach in the enemy lines.
They are still upon the defensive, but
the results reaped by the blow struck
just where it was are conclusive. That
blow put an end to the enemy offens-
i've and turned it into a strategical
breakdown as complete as that suf-
fered just before by the Austrians on
the Piave.
The most advanced enemy units
have been thrown back across the
Marine and are still retreating The
whole elaborte scheme, planned for
five weeks and launched with some
two-thirds of the enemy's valuable free
force, has gone to pieces. 1t is a cur
ious detail in the combined opera
ton, that whereas the number of pris-
oners taken in the stroke and counter
stroke are about equal OIL the two
sides, the Allies counted over 500 guns
and the Germans not single piece.

What happened may be told In Sc
quence day by day.
First Check by
American Troops
On the first day. Monday, two things
happened First, on his right, be-
tween Chateau Thierry and Dormans,
the enemy crossed the Marine and got
well on to the wooded heights to the
south of the river. But his attempt to
enlarge this success, which was upon
front of about eleven miles, and espec-
tally his attempt to enlarge 1t to the
west that is, toward Paris, was check
ed by American troops These counter
attacked on Monday afternoon with
great violence and threw the enemy
right back upon the river The con-
sequence of that brilliant piece OF
work we shall see in moment.
Meanwhile on the other limb of the
attack-the eastern one, between
Rheims and the Main de Massiges-
General Gouraud put into practice a
new tactic, which proved entirely sue
cessful We all know that the defen-
sive has become organized more and
more in depth during the past year
that is, that the main line of resist
ance has been put farther backward
from the front line But General Gour'
aud had not only organized his defen
sive system very deeply, he had also
determined that on the first shot he
would yield ground and retire mate

could get another four or five miles
further beyond the Marine he would
have outfianked it. We have seen how
on the day before, the Americans had
stopped his attempt to extend west
ward, or toward Paris, the belt he had
still free to extend it eastward to-
ward Epernay, and throughout the
whole of Tuesday his fight was aimed
to effect this. Very little was done on
that day.
On the third day, Wednesday, how
ever, the enemy achieved something
which looked like the beginning Of a
belated success for him. He pushed
forward along the Epernay road until
he got not around but abreast Of the
forest of Rheims When darkness fell
on Wednesday he was past the vii
lage of Montvoisin, and not much
more than six miles from Epernay.
He had gathered at his decisive point
a very large body of men and 1t looked

the following words:

one can see by looking at map
broader than the depth. But what the
defeated enemy is condemned to by
his position is enormous losses In pro-
portion to those of his victorious as
sailants. He has to counter-attack
ceaselessly, in order to preserve the
centers Of supply, and as l have said,
he is under converging fire the whole
time.
~ HE BATTLE which has been
fought since July Is, though its
full effects are not yet apparent,
is the most clear cut episode that we
have had upon the Western front
since the victory of the Marine. l will
describe it as best | can.
After a pause of month, imposed
upon them by their heavy losses, es-
pecially those on April 30, the Ger
mans effected very complete sur
prise and scored a success on May
81 which might have led to the very
gravest consequences. They struck
at front about thirty-five miles north
of the line uniting the towns of Sois-
sons and Rheims. The very strong
position known as the Chemin des
DANES. which was in the hands OF the
Allies, was broken at once. At the
first onset the enemy poured through
a wide gap, took many thousands of
prisoners and hundreds of guns, and
in an exceedingly rapid advance in
less than three days, reached the
Mane at Chateau Thierry.
At one blow he had produced a
bulge. pocket or salient. somewhat
over thirty miles in length and also
about thirty in depth They had de-
stroyed yet another sector of the old
permanent front, and upon yet an
other new line of over eighty miles.
Counting the whole Of the way
around from Rheims to the Marine,
near Dormans down to Chateau Thier-
ry and up to scissors AGAIN. they had
condemned the defence to the dan
eerous chance of maintaining itself
in rapidly made trenches and to the
hurried stemming of the tide Of the
German attack by putting in every
thing available in the neighborhood.
Success Puts Allies
In a Corner
Furthermore this great success was
probably unexpected upon the enemy's
part, at least upon any such scale.
It brought him to within few miles
OF Paris, and it further had two STRAIT
egical results:
First, it put the Allies into sort of
