Military Comment

Forest and west Of Coucy-le
Chateau.
On the eastern wing similar
lateral extension was effected by the
Germans. The entire district be
tween the Somme and the Vesle was
relinquished by the Allies under
pressure of superior force. The line
yesterday evening passed just north
Of Rheims and close in to that city.
1t continued east to Betheny and
then turned southeast Rheims is
hardly defensible any longer. 1t is
likely to fall to the Germans, as Sois-
sons did. 1t has no strategic value
now and really never had any. Other
wise the Germans would have held it
in the fall of 1914, after the retreat
from the Marine, instead Of passing
it by and establishing themselves on
the heights a few miles further
north.
While the German offensive was
broadening out on the wings it was
also driving ahead in the centre with
astonishing speed. The French night
communique gives the new Allied
line between Scissors and Rheims in
detail. 1t runs in a deep curve from
the west Of Scissors to Belleu, Sept
Monts, Ambrief and Chacrise. Then
it dips in the centre to Loupeigne,
which is about four miles north Of
Fere-en-Tardennois. 1t drops little
further south at Brouillet and then
turns northeast to Savigny-sur-
Ardre, on the little River Ardre,
continuing northeast to Thillois, be-
low the Vesle and just west Of
Rheims.
The Germans now claim $4,000
prisoners. The claim is reason
able one. The very rapid retreat Of
the Allied forces must also have in
volved heavy losses in guns.
Undoubtedly Allied reserves are
being gathered to check the German
march south. But it takes time to CO.
ordinate their movements and skill
full generalship to put them in at
the point where their efforts will
produce a real check, instead of a
temporary retardation. Foch must
choose his line Of barrier, just as
Joffre did in 1914. Where will it be
drawn across the area northeast and
east of Paris? The next few days
will tell.

May 28.--One Of the most brilliant
mountain operations since the begin
ming of the war was carried out bv the
Italians IN the Tonale region, north
west of Trent, early this week, particu-
lars regarding which are now being re-
ceived. The basin of Presena Lake was

hours of fierce fighting against a nu-
merlcaly superior enemy.

having at their disposal strong forti-
iications built before the beginning of
the war and greatly strengthened since
then. The great Presena Mountain was
reached by the Alpini after attacking
tour times under a heavy FIRE. The en-
emy was finally overwhelmed by a
bayonet drive.
The fight was rendered more difficult
by tire condition of the ground, which
was hsrd and slippery with late spring
snow. The Italians advanced up steep
asccnts, down precipices and over
glaciers.

glon was won in fighting on ground

Paris Forecasts

Enemy IN 48 Hours

PARIS, May 29.-General Foch now
has the situation we'll in hand and
French troops are beginning to gain
on the German advanced forces in a
contest of speed. No important line
OF communication is yet threatened by
the advance of the German Crowl
Prince
Those on the scene declare it is not
too much to say that another forty
eight hours will see the German drive
definitely stopped. High praise is
given the French reserves for the per-
feet order in which they are coming
into the fighting line.
Not the least encouraging news yes
tordav was the brilliant success Of the
Americans IN the Montdidier sector,
which all the newspapers feature.
1t was the first important action car
ried out alone by the Americans. All
reports agree that they behaved like
veterans. This is pronounced the best
augury for the early future when
American help will weigh heavily in
the balance.
noteworthy point j., connection
with the present great battle is the

their articles. Henri Bidou, for in

tainly distressing that the enemy sue

conquests of 1917 an admission which
it is considered virtually eel in the
previous censorship would not have
passed.
NJ. Bidou. who has established him
self as one of the soundest and most
conservative of the military writer's in
France, insists, however, that the only
true point of view in the present cir
cumstances is one taking general,
wide outlook, and his article inspires
confidence in the final result, which he
forecasts will be repetition of that
incident to Germany's last two great
efforts
The German success, this writer de-
clares, is due to the enemy's ability
to nian9uvre his reserves within the arc
of the front in way which admits of
a crushing mass to be suddenly thrown
against any weak point. But the
enemy's object. he points out, is not
to recapture territory, but to obtain
such avictory a as yill end the war.
The Germans M. Bidou recalls, found
after they had engaged III divisions,
while, their second effort in FLINDERS
cost the services of fifty divisions. He

ship Leasowe Castle has been sunk by
an enemy submarine, the British Ad-
miralty announced tonight. One hun
dred and one persons were drowned.
The Leasowe Castle. which was of

Before the war as
Religious Centre


Tho city Of scissors is situated
among wooded hills On the left bank
Of the Aisne, sixty-five miles northeast
of Paris. Although it had less than
$4,000 inhabitants at the outbreak of
the war, it has been of considerab BILE
importance in French religious and
civil life.
Much interest attaches to the ca
thedral of Notre Dame, which was
begun early in the twelfth century
and completed nearly two hundred
years later. The Abbey of ST. Medard,
another landmark, was formerly one
OF the most important in France.
Soissons figured as the rallying place
of the allies in the Napoeonic wars
and as an important point occupied by
the Prussians in the war of 1910.

After the Allied counter attack north

the German right wing seemed endan-

Distinct Success for Germans
The Crown Prince is only slightly
nearer Paris. but he has won q distinct
success on his wings and apparently
threatens further advances unless

The fact that the British commu-
nlques make no mention of the action
shows that Foch is handling every de-

Under ordinary conditions Americas

brilliantly executed and highly sue

ences TO Americas first show, and it is
regarded as the forerunner of many
greater and equally successful enter

Since the opening of the drive at day

the Germans have employed nearly
forty divisions. They have followed
the same tactics that they used on the
Somme-i. e., withdraw division the
