American Army in France.-Amer-

casualties through a German raid.
Two American soldiers were killed,
four were wounded, one seriously, and
one was taken prisoner by the enemy
in a sortie against a small American
salient.
The Americans battled heroically
against superior odds. There was evil

corner of the line on which the enemy
swooped
A heavy, lCwlying mist aided the
Germans. Taking advantage Of IT the
enemy suddenly put up an intense bar
rage fire over a small salient ana
listening post manned by American
fighting men.
The German rain Of high explosives
destroyed the communication wire by
which the listening post and salient
might have summoned help. The mist
effectually hid rockets which the
Americans sent up, The Sammies had
to fight without aid OF counter
barrage from their own guns, because
of this LACK of communication.
That they fought yaliantly was
amply shown in the blood and disorder
in the little notch they held. The
Americans didn't have a chance to
win against the vastly superior force
of German raiders, who swooped down
on them and who did not have to pene-
trate any barrage protecting the
salient
The enemy barTage, it was shown,
began very suddenly after night and
dawn of comparative quiet. There
had been only the customary desul-

around little trench salient held

like a peak toward the German lines
A listening post, -torming further
extension of the salient, was included
in the enemy zone of fire
The whole salient was manned by
a platoon OF American troops-275
men.
How much the Germans suffered in
their raid was not known. Following
custom, the raiders took away theil

risd out. Various reasons have been as
signed by the German command for re-
fusing the call OF Austria, one being the
Austrian rejection OF the plan TO accept
Gen. Won Below as commander in chief
Of the Teutonic forces on the Italian
front.
In all her previous successes. IL that
term be used, Austria has had the aid
OF German troops to brace her ranks.
Now the Germans are lacking and the
almost daily report from the Austrian
War Office Is that the Austrians have
retired to avoid the unnecessary sacri-
fee OF men. This report covertiy covers
the admission that Austria is incapable
of putting forth any great resistance.
At the same time tho Italians have the
assistance of the allied troops and are
putting forth their strongest and best
efforts against the Austrians with the
new spirit behind them.
The flood OF reports OF hunger. dis
satisfaction and even mutiny In the
Austrian army coupled with food riots
at various points. the upheaval OF the
Ministry of the Dual Monarchy. the
further confusion IN Russia and the fact
that Germany itself Is passing through
a Ministerial crisis, are pointed to as
justifying the assumption that internal
conditions are assisting in holding up
the German drive.
II is not believed that there are other
reasons that could have induced the Ger
man general stan to hold up Its offnsive in
France when in full stride. and thus give
the Allies time for rest and recruitment
and America time to rush additional
troops TO France TO augment the million
there on July /.
