 The Next Step.
 There is some speculation in off cial circles as to what will be the next step in what is recognized as the great Germanic peace offensive. Gen orally, it is believed that the German and Austrion military leaders will point to the American reply as an evidence that they had done every thing possible to bring about peace and thus try to strengthen their peo- ple for another winter campaign.
 But another view is that owing to the intolerable conditions in Austria Hungario, there is more than pos sibility of breaking up of the quadruple alliance that Austria, hay ing gone through the form of making a peace proposal, which was prompt ly rejected, has thus cleared the way for her next step-on unconditional surrender on the terms laid down by president Wilson.

 would be the occupation of the Briey iron fields and an effort to encircle Metz from the west.
 If General Pershing is moving to- ward that goal now. it is said, joint attack by his army and the French army holding the Verdun front would be probable development.
 Over Extended Line.
 Such an action would be over a very extended front, however, and some further reconnaissance of the enemy's positions on the immediate American front may be necessary be- fore it can be undertaken.
 Tactics employed by General Per. shing in cleaning up tho St. Mihiel salient, in the view of officers here, show that the American commander has determined that maximum speed is essential to military success. He hurled forward his troops last week at an unprecedented pace and it was this rush which swept the German defenders off, their feet and gave them no opportunity for even an or ganized rearguard action. It is there- fore argued that General Pershing may be expected to press his victory without delay ana to rush the enemy on his new lines as soon as com munication systems can be organized across the captured territory.

YANKEES DESTROYED FOUR ENTIRE B0CAE
 ARMY DIVISIONS
In Big Drive on St. Mihiel Last Friday-Enemy Did
 Not Remove It's Dead.

AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS IN LORRAINE, Sept. f.-tRcutcrs.J- J. It probably is not an underestimate to assume that the Americans in obliterating the St. Mihel salient re- duced the enemY's strength by the equivalent of four divisions !
 The victory of. the Americans was due to German inferiority in num- bers and greater inferiority in morale. 4
 The enemy was so busily occu- pied in getting out of the salient that he did not have time to remove his dead.
 The statement coming from the German high command, that it is glad to be rid of the salient may be believed, but it may be doubted if the command also is glad to have lost 15,000 men, more than 1000 guns. an innumerable quantity of machine guns, trench mortars, tons of ann munition and telegraph material as well as railroad equipment, rolling stock, clothing and supplies which either were burned or captured by the Americans
 False conclusions must not be drawn from the results of the Opv eration.
 To put it briefly, the Gefmans did not fight, and the trifling damage they did to the French and Ameri- cans proves it.
 The Germans, may have done the wisest thing, since, if they had tried to stand, their losses would have been increased enormously The allies had the means to insure such re- suit and the fact that the operation required only 57 per cent of the time allotted to it. is proof that a much more strenuous resistance was expected from the enemy
 He was in such a hurry to remove his guns that scores of them were captured without having fired a round. -
 The Germans already have begun to react. The number of enemy air planes has increased greatly and the allies are striving to drive them off. At night the Germans bomb the Americans. These things do not sug- gest a beaten foe. and it would be the gravest- mistake to imagine that the Germans are, done. !.

 There is no such apprehension on the part of the administration of a ca.aclysm which will bring down all civilized questions, and instead the general staff has given every aSsur- ance that the war is proceeding to reasonably early and complete vic- tory which will involve the occept- ance by the central powers of; the only possible terms of peace--namely those laid down, by President Wilson.
