Headquarters American Troops in
France, March 7.-American troops, in
still another place on the French front,
have been raided by Germans, who
were repuIsed with losses.
This is the first time permission is
given to mention this engagement. The
American forces entered the battle line
In certain place in Lorraine.
The French commander c0ngratu-
lated the Americans on their behavior.
1.-THE foregoing Is confirmation OF the
French official statement of March 5,
which said that German attack on
trenches held by American forces IN

repulsed.l
Americans Hold Eleht-MiIe Line.
Washington, March American
troops are now holding something over
eight miles Of trenches on the battle
front in France. It was learned here.
although in an airline their frontage is
only about four and half miles. This
frontage Is liable to extension at any
time TO the regular trench allotment
for an army corps.
Enemy AirpIanes Attacked.
Groups of enemy planes came over
for Photographic work, but were kept
high In the air by the American anti.
aircraft guns. Planes from the Ameri.
can lines also were out In force. III

Observation balloons were up for the
first time in several days, being sta

lions. For the first tine in the war
an American observation balloon, fully
manned and protected by Americans,
went up. Thisis the first complete unit
Of the American air service to appear
IN the field. For two days II had been
ready to ascend, the observers having
heen up in French balloon several
days previously. Today an American
balloon company was working where
the French hitherto have been.
Drive OF Hun Planes.
The balloon was hauled out from It's
hidden nest'and slight delay was ex-
perieneed in getting 1t Off the ground
because the telephone wires from the
basket, IN which were an American
captain and lieutenant, were foued.
This was quickly remedied and the
balloon was sent up. remaining in the
mir several hours.
II rose higher than either the French
or the German IN an attempt TO reach
an altitude specially favorable for OBJ
servatlon. While It was at the high
est point the watchers saw two air
planes, with the black cross Of the en-
envy on their wings. headed In their di.
rection. The balloon was hauled down
so that 1t might be grounded quickly
IL necessary. American gunners were
ON duty at many places nearby, for the
balloon was protected heavily.
They stood by their guns. but the en-
envy planes, sailing across the sky with
shrapnel puffs streaming out behind
them like the tail of comet, suddenly
changed their course and headed for
home. The appearance of squadron
OF planes from behind the American
lines bearing the insignia OF the French
ON their wings probably was the cause.
