BRITISH REGRET THE
 RESIGNATION OF PAGE
AMERICAN AMBASSADOR IS PAID A GLOWING TRIBUTE BY THE
 ENGLISH PRESS

London, Aug 2S.-The Manchester Guardian, after paying a tribute tc Walter II. Page, as maintaining tn, American tradition of sending us it's ablest and best as representatives, discusses the question of his success sor as ambassador and says:
 Tt is clearly of the utmost import ance that America should be repre- scented at this time by some one of the highest authority and enjoying in the greatest possible measure the conf dence of the president.
 "The American policy will it is safe to say be the determinant policy ol the war and how and when the war i' to end will depend in a larger meas ure upon America than upon any other country.
 Americas influence ought to 5t and effectively brought to bear upon the whole policy of tho war"
 The Westminster Gazette saysa
 We are not using conventional language when We say that the news of Mir. Pages resignation will be re- ceived in this country with profound regret. If the future historian wishes for a defense of the relationship be- tween the great powers, belligerant and neutral at the beginning of the war, he hardly could do better than point to the contrast between MT Page and Count von Bernstorff.
 Iii the hands of Mir. Page and Wis count Grey Anelo-American relations were serious, self respecting and sym pathetic; in von Bernstorffs hands German-Amerlcan relations degener- ated
 Through the great period of strain Mir. Page labored unremittingly to keep the relations of his country and ours on plane of mutual respect and sympathy, by which he contributed to the great American de- cision. No one in the last IS months has spoken more powerfully or nov ingly of the allied cause or has more expounded the principles for which President Wilson entered the war"

GERMANS GET DOSE or
 OWN MUSTARD GAS
In Their Haste to Get Away They Ter, Poison Shells and Guns Which the French Seized and Fired on the Re. treating Enemy.

With the French Armies in France, Aug. 2S.-The German retreat north of the Avre river has been far more speedy since the fall of Chaulnes than previously. Vigorously pursued by French troops and harassed by their own mustard gas shells. which they left behind and which are being fired from German guns by French |gunners, the enemy is making haste to cross the river in Con in the region Iof Nesle and the canal Du Nord General Debeney's men, without |great opposition, advanced four and one half, miles during the night and Ithis morning their cavalry was upon Nesle. and close on the heels of the retiring enemy. The pursuit toward the canal du Nord slackened this morning when the enemy's artillery of |all calibres maintained a heavy fire from strong positions west of the canal
 After Chaulnes fell, Gommiecourt, to the north was taken by the rrencn, while later Greasy, Balatre, Champion and Roiglise, between Nesle and Rove were captured and more than a score of other villages occupied
 The battlefield the Germans have abandoned presents a picture of dew astation and desolation that has not been surpassed during the war. Rove and the villages round about have been quite as thoroughly demolished as Mont Didier and Moreuil. Even cemeteries have been blown up, tomO- stones smashed and graves openeu. The names of towns in this region no longer have any other significance than as a reminiscence and a geo. graphical designation.
 They have ceased to exist as towns. Their sites are hardly recognizable ia many places.
 The ruins abandoned by the Ger mans previously were carefully filled with mustard gas. For this reason Rove is still inaccessible for occupa- tion
 The Germans weer not able to use all the mustard gas projectiles they brought to the present front anu .arge dumps Of them fell into French hands. They are now being fired against the enemy from some of the hundreds of German guns the French first army has taken since August &.

GERMAN FORCES APPEAR
 TO BE CAUGHT IN TRAP
Desperate Resistance is Being Offered d By the Huns in An Effort to Save the Army Which is Fighting With It's Back Against the Somme In A Triangle Shape.
(By the Associated Press.)


 The Germans facing the allied forces from Arras to Soissons every where are in dire peril On almost every sector of the battle front the enemy line continues to crumble be- fore the allies attack, notwithstand- ing the violence, born of desperation of the counter offensive tactics.
 Near Arras the old Hindenburg line is well outflanked; from the Scarpe to the Somme the hostile line gradually is falling back, while from the south of the Somme to Soissons the enemy front literally has been smashed and the German hosts ap- parently are caught in two distinct traps, escape from which without heavy losses in men made prisoners and guns and material captured seems almost impossible of achieve ment
 Scores of additional towns have been captured by the British, French and American troops. the Americans having entered the Fray with the French northwest of Soissons, while all of the old German salients in the allied lines now have been flattened out and the allies themselves have dug deeply into the enemy terrain
 The first trap into which the enemy finds himself is the triangle formed by the sharp curve of the Somme river with Peronne it's apex and with Curlu on the Somme and Fresnes respectively it's northern and south ern bases. This triangle is a little more than three miles deep and six miles wide and the Germans are fight ing with their backs toward the Somme on both the north and the east.
 Desperate resistance is being of fered by the enemy in order that his men may have time to reach a haven Of safety across the stream but the British are hard after their quarry and with the French a little to the south, almost up to the river to aid them by an outflanking movement, it would seem that the odds are heavily against the Germans
 It was the French troops who sprang the other trap. With the fall of Chaulnes the French forces rout- ed the enemy over a front of about 10 miles and penetrated the region to a depth at some points of nearly seven miles. From north of Chaul- nes to Nesle the penetration of the French reached the nights on the left tanh of the Somme, souihward the advance left the French along the Canal du Nord, at various points be- tween Nesle and the outskirts of Noyon: south and southeast of Noyon gains were also made and Noyon and the entire region and Nesle and Sois- sons now are in a great pocket and with the French pincers working hard to close it.
 The Americans are fighting ws<h the French northwest of Soissons in the operation which has in view the plotting out of the Noyon sector and the out flanking of the Aisne and the old Chemin- des-Dames positions
 Official reports have the Americans and French fighting violently with the enemy around Juvigny and Cha vigny. where they have gained some ground.
 The Americans have successfully sustained several heavy enemy counter attacks in this region. The
