YANKEE TROOPS
ANNIHILATE ONE
GERMAN DIVISION
With French and Italian Forces
Help Cut Up Three
Others
Paris. July 1s.-(By T. n. s..


Terrific losses marked the fifth Ger
man offensive on the Marne-Champagne
front which began yesterday morning
Before noon on Monday, four German
divisions that attacked the French,
American and Italian lines between
Chateau-Thierry and the Argonne forest,
had been cut up and one was completely
annihilated.
The long-range bombardment Of Paris
was resumed this morning.
The Germans made a few insignificant
gains, but in virtually every instance
were thrown back to their old positions.
Between Dormans, on the Marne
River and Rheims, the Franco-ltalian
forces lost only 500 yards at the great
est depth, but they Immediately launched
series of savage counter-assaults, and
at latest reports were rewinning all
they had been compelled to give up.
Hard fighting developed east of
Rheims in the sector of Souain. There
the forefield in front of the French
positions and the French entanglements
were piled high with German corpses.
The Partisan press today wildly sc-
claimed the American victory between
Reuilly and Dormans (on the southern
bank of the Marne) where Ludendorff' s
best troops, advancing on six-mile
front to the principal attack west OF
Rheims. were driven back.
The Americans fought with the vaior
of tigers" declared Colonel De Thom-
asson. He added that the German
journalist would ever regret the snob-
bish sneers at the AnYricans' f'shtins
qualities"

ATTACK ON MARNE
MADE BY 100000 MEN

London. July 16.-tBy |. y. 81
Thirty-fire divisions 100000 mem were
employed by the Germans in their at
'ack between Chatcau-Thierry and Dor
mans in the Marine River, 1t was learned
here today Between Dormans and Fos-
sey American counter-attacks drove the
Germans back across the Marine.
The Germans planned to drive in a
wedge between ChateauThierry. seize
Montmirail and to sever the Chalons-
Rheims railway near Suipped Gin Cham
pagne districD during the first day of
the drive.
BY the second day they had expected
to occupy Chalons, after Selling Cham
pagne mountain.
Communication with Rheims Is now
limited to one railwsy-that which runs
through Epernay.
Military critics point out that the Ger
mans may attempt to extend their at
tacking front to the Argonne forest. but
the main drive had already proved abor.
tive.

Washington, July l6.
Appointment of an American commis-
sion to make a thorough investigation
OF actual conditions in Russia was
strongly urged upon President Wilson
today in a letter from Senator Hitch
cock. of Nebraska. chairman OF the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee The
question of military intervention in Rus
eia was not discussed in Senator Hitch
cocks letter.
The American commission was pro
posed by the Senate committee chair
man because of what. he said. are con-
fiicting reports regarding military. eco
nomic, political and social conditions in
Russia. His opinion to the President
was that 1t is most desirable. as soon as
possible, to learn the actual conditions
in Russia in all phases.
Views of many Russians and also
Americans returning from Russia, re-
garding solutions and sentiment of the
Russian people were cited to the Presl-
dent as evidence of the wide disparity
of opinion existing. A strong commits
sion of prominent Americans of sound
