Owing to the ability Of the enemy
to bring 10 bear a larger conccntra

poisoned gas shells, the allies were
obliged 10 withdraw slightly.
The fan-likc formation Of the en-

In the center the Germans are plac-

Gen. Foch, the commander IN
chief Of the allied forces, has not yet
brought his reserves into action. All
reports from the field of battle tell of
the allied forces being vastly outnum-
bered.
The German official report claims
that over $1,000 prisoners and moe
than 4OD guns have been taken 10y
the Teutons since the beginning If
the battle on Monday, not counting
large numbers of machine guns. This
may be compared with the GermIi'
aims of more than $1,000 prisoners
and over 1900 guns captured from
March Il to April ) in the Picardy
battle.
American soldiers are in action in the
Picardy and Toul sectors. At Cantigny
they again have repulsed repeated Ger
man attacks to GUST them from the po-
sitions which they captured early in
the week. while in the Toul sector they
have attacked German positions, pene-
trated them to depth OF almost half
mile and destroyed the German de-
lenses.
German armen have been adding hor-
rors TO the fighting by their deliberate
attacks on hospitals back OF the allied
lines. One large receiving station be-
hind the American positions in Picardy
has been bombed. A Canadian hospital
also was attacked and partly burned
BY another German raiding party.
Disorders in Ukraine are reported 1t
