 TANKS BRAVE
Had Made Ample Preparation for Resisting French but They Were Quickly Over whelmed by Dash

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, Aug. 10, (By the Associated Press. .)-North of the Ancre the Bri- tish have firmly established their posi- tions and are pushing out patrols to ward Brave.
 The Germans throughout the day were retiring all along the line. en- deavoring to save whatever they could as the French launched their new at- tack against MOntdidier.
 The French attack today resulted in the taking of MOntdidier. This move ment is considered as most significant as the allies have now penetrated far into the enemy lines in the Amiens district The Germans are retreating rapidly out of the pocket of which Montdidier was the apex.
 The Americans and British have now advanced beyond their objectives north of the Somme. The whole of the Chipilly spur is now in their posses sion after fighting of the most desper- ate character.
 The casualties of the Americans were not more than was to be expected considering the bitterness of the light ing.
 Details of the brilliant battle which the American and British fought for the spur are now available. In order to go over the top at tine appointed time yesterday the Americans were forced to make a rapid march in the last part of which they ran. so as 10 be in the fight.
 Hurried on their way by the advanc- ing allies on the Amiens- -SOmme bat tie field, the Germans throughout me day retired all along the line, attempt ing to save what ever they could as the French launched a new attack on MOntdidier. The elements of the Ger man division became badly confused in their operations through trying to hold up the allies in their several az tacks It was a victorious day for the allies who smashed all the German resistance.
 In the American attack the German infantry held for a while and then broke and the Americans kept going at some places without the assistance of the tanks. The ground. Dittcd with deep gullies was unsuited for tank warfare
 There were no trenches. but 9 thin smoke screen blowing across the ground indicated where the enemv-s position lay. At the same time tho German artillery became active and dropped shells in the direction of the American troops which inflicted a few casualties. The Americans ran on and

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O.-An eye witness story of the fighting near Chateau Thierry in which American divisions. including the marine brig ade. took part early in June. was made public today by the navy department. It is in the form of a letter from an officer of the marines to Major Gen eral Barnett. commandant of the corps. The Americans were rushed to the line in motor trucks to support the hard pressed French and on June 1 the marine brigade deplOyed on a support position. the battalion commanded by Mai.

There was desperate fighting in the region of Fismette where the German attacks were repulsed by the Americans who were clinging to the outskirts Of the village
 In the region of Bazoches, the Ger mans made several vicious attacks, but the allies successfully fought them off
 The Germans began with airplane attacks, the aviators attempting to bomb infantrymen north of the Vesle and bridges over which their other troops were passing French and Amer ican anti-aircraft guns beat off the German fliers, however.
 Just after dark the Germans launch ed an artillery attack which steadily increased in volume until nearly day light when the FrancO-AmeTicans counter attacked with such force tEat the Germans were forced to lessen the volume of their fire.
 During the night the Germans at- tackled Fismette three times and once after daylight Saturday
 From the region southeast of Braisne to Fishes. the FTanco-Amer- ican put down such a terrific barrage that the Germans were stopped.
 Saturday morning the Teutons start ed another attack along the same line but heavy artillery quickly checked this assault The enemy used much gas in attempting to dislodge the Americans from Fismette. Infantry men pentifuliy supplied with machine guns made futile attacks

North of SOmme, stubborn enemy re sistance at Chipilly spur. a height which dominated the whole valley oi the SOmme in that region, has been broken and the Germans north of the river have joined their comrades in retiring.
 South of Montdidier, the French have plunged through the German lines on the hills west of the Metz riv- CT and are reported to be in the val ley of the stream at Marqueglise.
 When the situation is studied on a map it can be seen that the Germans are in serious position east of Mont. didier. The allies have closed in on Chaulnes and have had the railroad junction south of that town under artillery fire for two days.
 If Chaulnes is lost to the Germans they will be forced to make a long perilous march eastward over country roads toward NOyon. The rapid pro- gress of the French below Montdidier has placed even this road under fire and made it almost impossible as an avenue to escape.
 In the center the Germans are Te- ported to be in full retreat Allied air. men have seen roads filled with Ger man motor tories and have been ac- tive in bombing these lines of trans port The bridges of the Somme river south of PerOnne are under fire and the one at Peronne is reported to have been broken This will throw new com plicatiOns in the German high com mand's task of eXtricatin his shattered armies from the field where they have been defeated

Paris newspapers. remark on the fact that the captives taken, are for the most part rather old and it is said that they are members of the reserve divisions
 Grown Prince Rupprecht is known to have large number of splendid troops which will probably be thrown into the battle at once. So far, only two of these divisions have come in con1act with the allies but they have been un- able to check the onward rush of the victorious armies of Haig and Debeny
 The number of prisoners captured during the first three days of the of- fensive is very large. It is hinted at Paris that it exceeds by far the figures given out in the official statements.
 Two divisional headquarters with their staffs, are said to have been tax. en. The guns and war materials lost by the enemy constitute a very heavy loss.

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 1o.-The Anglo French successes are attributed to their surprise attacks and the presence of thick fog over the battle field, according to a Berlin telegram re- ceiVed here quoting semi-officiaI Ger man news agency.
 Notwithstanding the exceedingly favorable ground for the movement of great masses of troops and the oper- ations of tanks, the initial success Of the Anglo-Frenoh armies under Field Marshal Haig have not surpassed the limits which usually result from first days offensive" the agency declares.
