Of the st. Mihiel salient by Gen. Per-
shing's First Army In Its first independ-
ent venture was the necessary forerun-
ner OF this new blow. Not only did
that swift victory free the French ar
mics around Verdun from the menace
OF the salient in their rear, but 1t lib
Grated rail lines to supply the new
battle front and set free thousands of
soldiers of both armies for attack pur-
poses by shortening the lines.
Again II is American aid that makes
possible the new attack. The announce
ment OF this drive is the first indication
that American troops were on the front
Immediately west of the Mouse, with the
possible exception OF n unit of negro
troops known to have been recently
somewhere in the centre OF the front be-
tween Rheims and Verdun.
Whether that unit is engaged in the
present fighting Is not known, but 1t Is
evident that very large force of Amer
leans has been shifted westward along
the line to take part In the present blow.
Apparently they hold more than one
half OF the advancing line.
The extreme left OF the American
force forming the western Jaw of Per-
shlngs nutcracker, which reduced the
st. Mihiel salient, rested in the hills
east OF the Mouse. 1t Is indicated now
that the whole line from the Moselle,
where they stand before the outer de-
fences of Metz, to point well to the
west Of Verdun. may be held by Amer
leans, in which case the French have
paid Pershing's men the high compliment
OF intrusting to them completely the de-
fence of that vital fortress.

FOURTH TURK ARMY

Entire Force Is Virtually Sur
rounded.

LONDON. Sept. 26-The Fourth Tur-
kish Army on the Palestine front is vir-
tually surrounded in the region east of
the Jordan and faces humiliation by
Gen. Allenby's forces, to-day's advices
show.
The precarious position of the Fourth
Army may be seen from the fact that
Arab cavalry and infantry are north of
it, Arab and British forces east of it and
British troops to the south. All these
are pressing inward on the enemy. while
the Jordan. with the crossings, is in the
hands OF the Allies.
The total prisoners now number As, 900.
The humiliation Of the Fourth Army,
now hoped for. would complete the clean
ing up of the Turkish forces in Palestine.
accounting for about 5000 men.
British troops are extending their oc-
cupation about the Sea of Galilee. They
have occupied Tiberias and Semakh, on
the borders Of that sea, and the strategic
town OF Amman. on the Hedjas railway.
Liberated territory in Palestine will be
administered under the agreement
reached between the British. French and
Russian Governments in 1916, 1t is
learned here. England and France will
carry out the agreement under which
France is charged with the preparation
OF a scheme Of self-government for the
people of Palestine.
British casualties during the offensive
were less than one-teuth of the number
of prisoners taken. according to an Of
ficial statement issued by the War ONCE,
which reads:
In the northern area our cavalry has
occupied Liberals. Semakh and Es-
Samra. on the shores Of Lake Liberals

of the victory n decisive one, the experts
believe the Bulgarians have suffered so
heavily in men and material that 1t Is
doubtful II the army will be able to re-
cover without the aid of the Central
Powers. and that contingency is viewed
as unlikely.
At any rate. the Serbians have re-
gained the greater part OF Serbian Mace

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The reported
Ministerial crisis in Bulgaria is viewed
with open suspicion by officials Of the
Government here. II peace Is really
sought by the Bulgarian Government 1t
Is assumed here 1t will be a peace leav-
ing the Bulgars all the territory they
now hold as a result of the war.
II Is thought more probable, however,
that Malinoff. the Premier, fears a revo-
luton and has engineered the Ministerial
crisis to forestall this and pacify the
troublesome element, which, according
to recent reports. has been increasing In
numbers and in its demands.
The fact that the allied armies are
steadily advancing on the Bulgarian
front, with the Bulgarian and German
forces in retreat, has greatly disturbed
the Bulgarians. To-day's news that the
Allies actually have crossed the Bull
garlan border probably will cause
greater agitation.

PARIS. Sept. 26.-"Had we one single
regiment OF Americans in Macedonia

alongside the French, Serbians, the Brit
ish and Italians a prompt and complete
victory would be assured"
The Serbian Minister to France. Or,
vesnitch, thus declared to the Associated
Press to-day, and continued:
This does not mean l doubt that the
ultimate and Anal success will be com
plete. but the moral effect upon the
troops lighting in the Balkans would be
immense II n few of your brave boys

The Serbian Government will not re-
move to Monastir for the present. the
Minister said. The work necessitated by
the removal OF the archives and docu-
ments Of all sorts from Corfu to the
mainland would have to be repeated
when the allied troops captured other
cities in old Serbia. The Minister In
timated that the Serbian Government
would not leave Corfu until Uskub was
solidly occupied by the allied troops.
Asked about the reenforcements OF
German troops sent from Rumania un-
der Field Marshal Won Mackenscn the
Minister replied:

der the mailed fist. If reenforcements
are drawn from Rumania the country
will soon make things uncomfortable
for the remaining garrisons, and Won
Mackensen would have hostile popu-
lation in his rear hampering communi-
cations"
DR.. vesnitch referred to Won Macken-
sen as unwilling to assume charge OF
the armies Of Ferdinand.
THE Germans will probably come, -
he added, "but they will not be led by
Won Mackensen. The German Field
Marshal, owing to his English extrac-
ton. has always refused TO meet British

Kaiser so. when the latter last sCrinS

LONDON. Sept 26.-The Russian Boil
shevik Government has issued a decree
resembling It's reign OF terror. according
to the Mt' OF Moscow. The question was
discussed at meeting OF tho Central
Committee Of the Soviet. the newspaper
says and when Premier Lenne en-
pressed an earnest desire to return to
orderly methods of government a ma
jority of those present supported him.
The plans for the Bolsheyik army on
the Nolga front, which seriously endan-
gers the Czech army in that region Of
Russia. call for ffty-one divisions, or a
half million men. The army is con-
stantly being reinforced by Germans
and to great extent il Is led and in
structed by Germans.
The reports indicate that while some
OF the Bolshevik personnel of this army
have improved. a majority OF the SOL
diers are comparatively worthless.

VAST IMPORTANCE
Keystone of Whole German
Defence Is Being In1perilled.
By the associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The keystons
of the great German defensive arch in
france Is under assault in the Franco
American offensive launched this morn
ing IN the Champagne over a front of
forty miles. Because OF the place of
attack selected by Marshal Foch. mill
tary officials here regarded the new blow
as one OF wide strategic possibilities.
1t was not until Gen. Pershing's Off
cial statement arrived late tonight that
definite idea was given OF the extent
and success of the initial rush. The
Americans advanced on a front of twenty
miles to an average depth OF seven
miles, taking more than 5000 prisoners
and twelve towns. The French War
Office previously had reported that the
French troops further west had ad-
vanced i, nearly four miles at certain
points.
No Rest for the Enemy.
Several facts of utmost Significance
and of peculiar interest to the people of
the United States are sharply disclosed
by the new offensive. For one thing
the power and will OF the allied forces
30 continue hammering at the enemy
without rest is apparent. With the
smoke OF the battle In tho st. Mihiel
salient hardly cleared away and with n
nifty mile stretch of the line to the north
and south of St Quentin In n contin-
ual flame of attack, 1t was possible to
organize and deliver a new blow on a
forty mile front and drive 1t forward
many miles with It's initial thrust.
Moreover the indicated German with
drawal IL added proof of the enemy s
waning man power. There is now no
doubt that he will not be allowed to
rest a moment and that the fighting
will be carried into the winter on a
scale never before possible.
