AMERICANS FORCED
TO CONTEND WITH HUN
SHIPPERS IN ARGONNE

With the American Army North
west of Nerdun, Sept. 30.--(By the
Associated Press)--In Kidding the Ar
gonne forest of Germans. the Amer
leans have been compelled to con-
tend with. hundreds of snipers. many
of whom take positions in trees en-
deavorinG to pick off the advancing
soldiers. The Americans encountered
snipers in such numbers in one part
of the forest that the infantry called
for artillery, which quickly ousted the
snipers with barrage. Two COM
plete batteries started action against
the Germans today. The guns and
ammunition of these batteries were
captured from the retreating forces
near Cierges. Included in the cap
tured equipment were $50 millimetrc
guns and twenty-one pieces of lighter
artillery. American artillery had not
come up when the capture was made
The officers took quick advantage
of the situation and turned these
guns on to the enemy. using ammu-
milton which they found nearby. The
gain made by the Americans in the
Argonne include a slight advance in
the western part and a more mater
ial gain in the eastern front.

ADVOCATES DEALING
STERNLY WITH KING
FERDINAND, BULGARIA

London. Sept. 5O.-Sr Valentine Chirol,
former foreign editor OF the London
Times and well known publicist, In
an article in the Times warns the AL
lies of the necessity of dealing sternly
with King Ferdinand of Bulgaria.
so long as we remember that our
first duty Is to our allies in the Balkan
peninsula" says Sir Valentine, I'VE can
treat the Bulgarian people lenently,
but In the interests OF the Bulgarians
themselves we cannot deal too sternly
with the ruler whose sinister influence
and example have blighted the fair
promises Bulgaria held forth during the
early years of her emancipa ton from
the Turkish yoke
IF 1t is one Of the chief war aims of
the Allies to make the world safe
against militarism and autocracy, Ferdi-
nand who is the living embodiment in
the Balkan peninsula of all that Is worst
In them, cannot be allowed to retain
his throne

MARSHAL FQCH'S
FIVE BATTLES.
HIST0RY'S RECORD

Paris. Sept. S0.-May3hal Foch is
fighting five battles simultaneously
and successfully-a feat unparalleled
in the history of war;
General Grants idea Of continuous
concurrent attack by multiplicity Of
forces on many fronts is being real
lied by the allied generalissimo.
Therefore flve battles today-there
may be more tomorrow. all inter-re-
lated and working as smoothly as
the cylinders of a we'll adjusted au-
tomobile engine. All are directed to
the same end-to wear down the en-
emy's strength. Marshal Foch alone
knows when the allies will strike tn .
decisive blow. The enemy is still
fighting WELL He is still 5fering
come. but how long can he keep it
up?
Expert commentators agree that
the enemys withdrawal to a shorter
line, probably Of Antwerp. Brussels,
Mezieres and Metz. is imminent.
Some believe he has hung ON too long
and that he will have great difficulty
in preventing his retreat from de-
generating into rout.
An examination Of one section Of
the 22-mile front on which General
Gouraud is attacking in the Cham
payne will give an idea Of the Ger
man wastage. On the eve of the at
tack General Ludendorff, feeling I'M
easy. reinforced the defenders with
two or three divisions. Thus II or II
divisions have been used u0 on a
front of % miles only. From this the
speed at which the German strength
is being whitfield away easily may be
calculated.
The soberest and most conserva-
tive observers here consider that yes
terday marked the first step 81 the
decisive phase Of the war. The Bel
gians are close to Roulers; the Brit
ish, marching up the Lys, will out
flank Lille: the Siefried line is going
to pieces at two vital points. namely
Carbrai and st. Quentin, the fall OF
which places is considered a Ques-
ton of hours; LIE Catelet. the central
pillar of the Hindenburg system. is
outflanked: General Mangin is driv-
ing the enemy north of the Chemir-
Dcs- Danes: General Gourau is at
the gates Of Challerange on his way
to Vouziers. the key to the lateral
railroad communications of the Ger
mans. Moreover. during the last
week the allies on the western front
have taken more than $4,000 prisoners.
