1T Ia still more slanderous to involve

THE slander Is more painful, as II

Army Intelligence officer
All America, France, England and
Germany as well know that American
soldiers took Bouresches. The whole
world knows. There Is food for thought
in every line Of this remarkable docu-
ment. Remember 1t was not written for
public consumption. but for furnishing
accurate Information to the German
commanders, and marked az very secret.
1t tells the truth that the German SOL
diers have learned.
The most glorious line in the docu-
ment Is that confessing that the Ger
mans could get no Information from our
boys That they tried goes without
saying. and they undoubtedly tried hard.
1t may be accepted that strenuous efforts
we're made to break the spirit of those
boys And this tribute from the Ger
man army to the American captives
comes a few days after the issuance of
an order by Ludendorff calling attention
to the fact that captured Germans were
giving away valuable military secrets,
and appealing to his soldiers to cease
doing so when made prisoners.

possible to reconstruct the eastern front

mountains" is statement made by
Lieutenant General Horvath, vice presi-
dent and general manager of the Chinese
Eastern Railway, according to a dis
patch to the Mail from Harbin under
date OF June 20. General Horyath. who,
as chief director of Chinese Eastern
Railway in 1904. was responsible for
transporting Russian armies over the ST.
berian railway to the battlefields Of the
Russo-Japanese War, continued:
Intervention is unavoidable. The ac-
lions OF the German and Austrian pris-
oners are undoubtedly a part of the Ger
man scheme to possess the whole Of
Russia, especially western Siberia, with
its important resources. They are act
ing in collusion with the Bolsheviki
one-tenth of whom are fools and the rest
knaves
Japan must supply the bulk of the
Allied troops for intervention. The other
allies must supply money, locomotives
and material, the latter presumably being
the part expected of the Americans.

two bases. Any American. or even Brit

General Horvath calculates a formid.

in four months and. as order is restored

would flock to join the colors. until the
requisite million is reached. He believes
IT quite possible for an Allied army to
live upon the country.
'If a less ambitious Allied expedition

said. 1T would yield valuable results
and have an immense moral effect on the
Russian people, encouraging them to re-
constitute military force themselves" ("

Paris, July 10
scathing editorial in the Temps at
tacking Kerensky for ignoring all French
opinion except that represented by the
Revolutionary Socialists has provoked a
ing in the Socialist paper Humanite.
Thomas asserts that the Temps dshon-
ored itself by the article, and insists
that, far from restricting himself to con-
ferring with Socialists, Kerensky's first
words when he entered Paris were to
disavow all party affiliations and to place
his country above all party differences.
Far from refusing to meet anybody
but Socialists. Thomas asserts. Kerensky
agreed to meet not only Republicans and
Socialist Radicals. but even manufac-
turers and business men, in view of the
fact that France had large business in
terests in Russia.
"Kerensky has committed faults and
had Illusions" says Thomas, but nobody
can doubt his will TO struggle and his
attachment to the Entente"
Incidentally. as proving how even Rev
olutionary Socialists are divided as to
kerensky, the Nlctorle states that at the
conference with the Socialist parliamen-
tary group Jean Longuet went so far as
to reproach Kerensky with being re-
responsible for ordering the successful
Russian offensive in Galicia In 1917.
Kerensky in reply very naturally ex-
pressed intense surprise that any French
man could possibly reproach him with
responsibility for a policy which GER
tainly did much to relieve the pressure
Of the enemy on the French front at
that period.
At the same conference Kerensky
strongly urged that Japan should be
allowed to intervene In conjunction with
the Allies. He asserted fatty that the
tyranny of the Maximalists was Infinitely
worse than the tyranny of the Czarist
regime. and stated proudly that it was
he. and not Lenine. who armed the
Czecho-SlCvaks in the hope that they
would give useful support to the Allies.

With the American Army on the
Marne, July 10.
The German army has declared Of.
fcially that the American soldiers
"are remarkable" Regardless Of the
stuff the Kaiser's propaganda bureau
feeds to the German people and to
neutrals about our soldiers not being
able to fight. for its own use the Ger.
man army has compiled its own esti.
mate, which looks forward to finding
the American formidable adversa-
ries."
This estimate Is set forth in an
official German army report captured
yesterday. This report not only
speaks in a most respectful term OF
the nerve and bravery of the Ameri-
can soldiers fighting northwest of Cha
teau.Thierry. but confesses that the
German intelligence officers were ut.
terly unable to get information from
the few Americans they captured.
What Is of most significance, the re-
port marvels that while the majority
of the Americans captured were born
of foreign-born parents. they had the
pure American spirit. 1t can be stated
that some OF the Americans captured
were German-Americans.

Measures taken by the Allies to aid
