Fifty Persons Killed
When Allied Airmen

THINK AMERICANS

German Residents Are in
Deadly Fear of u. S.
Air Squad.

London, Mar. 19.-Fifty per-
sons were killed and great ma
terial damage was done by
bombs dropped by Allied air
men when they raided Coblenz
Germany, on March AZ, accord
ing to a neutral traveller who
arrived in The Hague.
1.-THE people believed the raiders
were Americans" the traveller said.
81 was in the neighborhood of a big
munitiou works in Mulheim (north Oh
Coblenz and On the Rhine) at 10 min
utes past noon when suddenly all the
factory whistles started blowing and
the irens we're sounded. Many rush.
ed from the works for the bomb proof
shelters, while passing street cars
were stopped as the crews bolted into
houses Four or five areoplanes were
visible in the clear sky.
Presently some one exclaimed:
'They are Americans! Another
person screamed aloud: The
Americans arc comingv A Dutch
man knew ruushed up to me and
said: Didn't tell you the Amer
leans would come sooner or
Iater?'
81 cannot say whether the machines
actually were Americans, but the strik-
ing thing was the evidence that there
has been general skepticism whether
American aeroplanes ever would come
and equal fear of them when they dc
come"
The neutral traveller added that al
though the machines merely passed
over Mulheim on their way to Coblen7
it was not until O'Clock that the "all
clear" signal was sounded.
Coblenz is the capital of the Rhine
province of Prussia. he British wal
office announced on March IL that on
that day British aviators had dropped
a ton Of bombs on factories, stations
and ba racks in Coblenz.
Berlin always has denied any serious
losses caused by Allied air raids over
German territory, but if SO persons
were killed in Coblenz the British raid
resulted in more serious losses thar
have ever been reported from Ger.

An American patrol between Rem
nieres wood and Jury wood (between
Seichepray and Flirey) encountered
an enemy patrol early today For an
hour and half the American patrol
tried to make some of the enemy
prisoner, but without result, although
a number of fights with pistols and
rifles occurred as the Germans re-
tired jumping from tree to tree.
|
lucky shots today and Germans were
seen to fall.
The American telephone wires
within the American lines were tapped
again during the night, not far from
where the patrol encounter occurred.
The enemy artillery fired gas shells
at our lines.
The weather last night and today
was well suited for aerial work and
much was accomplished. American
anti-aircraft guns drove off at least
six enemy aeroplanes, while others
crossed the lines at such a height that
they were out of range.
Last night aeroplanes from the rear
of the American lines crossed over
to the German zone. Soon after
many explosions and flashes were
Metz.
American planes discovered during
the night that the Germans are
Strengthening their second line. 1t is
known that the first line in many
places has been abandoned. It is
believed that the accurate American
artillery fire has had something to
do with this.
An American patrol composed OF
troops in the sector east of Luneville
! early today were discovered by the
| Germans, who put down a heavy
| barrage, the shells striking among
the party. Intermittent artillery fire
proceeded on this front all day.
