There were three strong enemy attacks
preceding this, all of which were
repulsed.
Attempting to cross to the left bank
of the Marne, the b0ches encountered
American machine gunners. They lay
coolly at their guns while the Germans
came on, then opened up and riddled
the enemy ranks, throwing them into
complete confusion.
At another spot, our machine gun.

Americans were on the job, then began

Fighting is so open and the lines are

aviators are doing their share in the

Strange conditions prevail over tho

village near Chateau-Thierry where
there has been fighting all around, but
the village stands unoccupied and un-
assailed. American patrols entered the
deserted town and the beautiful
chateaus which stand in No Man s

of hasty flight. Coats and hats were

MAY Have Brought Germs

Washington, June 5.-That the Ger
man U-boat raiders carried germs to
this country was the belief of some
naval officers today Officials warned
that survivors of the U-boat attacks
should avoid giving away as souvenirs
any of the food or other articles given
by the U-boat commanders.
While not intended to cause undue
alarm, it was officially pointed out
that German submarine carried
disease germs into Spain, apparently
those which caused the strange epi.
demic, similar to the grippe, now rag
ing there.
This fact, coupled with the strane
conduct Of German commanders toward
U-boat victims, was regarded as
suspicious. ~
"German commanders do not do
things that way" said one official to-
day. 'It is unparalleled in German
submarine history that a U-boat shoult
give food and water to its victims" "
