Paris, Nov. 7--Almost simultan-
eously with Austria's request for an
armistice, the morale of the enemy
forces in Italy weakened. Energetic
resistance was first opposed to the
allied advance, but once the
mountains were cantured and the Pi-
ave crossed, the whole Austrian line
gave way.
The first order for retreat caused n
great deal of confusion in the Aus
trian ranks, OF which the allied
aviators took full advantage, The
Austrian columns on the march We're
bombed and fired upon by The avia-
tors machine guns.
Prisoners taken show a certain ig-
norance of Austria's internal troubles,
though some freely admit that anar-
chy is breeding. Some express the
opinion they are fighting for an en-
peror who has virtually ceased to ex-
list. and for a nationality which Is not
ours"

the German positions on the heights
beyond. To the south OF this Re-
milly was captured.
It is estimated that the Germans
are determined not to yield Sedan un-
| less absolutely forced to do so. They
have made big concentrations on the
heights back of the city and IN such
places as can be defended both above
and below on the river. Concrete en-
trenchments near the city are strong
! ly held. while all the woods and
bridges in the neighborhood have
either been destroyed or mined.
AS soon as the western portion O
Sedan was captured, the American

and prepared for further advances
The enemy had destroyed all TN
bridges across the Meuse but IN
i Americans Immediately began tn
work of repair and will be able to us'
them to reach the other part Of tn

The Americans are in close toucl
with the enemy lines between mo

wants to try his hand at it on French
soil He said that his company would
plant a garden as soon as they could
secure the seed. Mrs. Tharp imme-

seed to her son.
Along with the seed however. went
a distressing little bit OF news. Vree-

in the yard at home and that he would
be home to eat them next Christmas.
He will learn, however, that the tree is
