SIGNIFIC ANT SYRIA w
French and British Activity Farther North Than Marne Battle Regard
 ed as Important.

WASHINGTON, July 27.--lt is be- Iieved here that the Armies of the Allies and those of Germany may now command the settings and stage of the decisive battle of the war. It is believed that the fighting in the North, where the British are aiding to the pressure that has been fruit. fuI of considerable success during the last week and where the French have also made notable gains, may be of more than local significance. 1t Is possibly indicative that the fighting will be extended along the whole line of battle from Flanders South and West.
 Gen. Foeh's plans have not been indicated by the progress of the fight. ing the last 24 hours, but 1t is now believed that he purposes to force the enemy out of the Soissons- Rheims pocket rather than. to trap him and compel a surrender.
 Those who believe that both sides are planning for fight to decis. ion along the lines that are now drawn, or those which may result from the fortunes of the battle in process, base their opinions largely upon the persistence with which both Allies and Germans are drawing fresh reserves into action, and the spread of the conflict Northward.

we're inscribed on the banners. White
flags on which skulls and crossbones
were painted were part of the para
phernalia.
Just who were included in the band

take steps to put stop to the practices

believed that this had much to do with
