NEW ASSAULT BY ALLIES ON
 THE GERMANS
Americans, British and French Smash Through Last Defense of the Hindenburg Line-An Advance Everywhere.

With the British Army on the St. Quentin Front, Oct. 8.-The Brit ish launched a terrific attack on a front of about twenty miles today from Cambrai southward. American forces co-operated, and the French at the south also attacked in conform ity with the general plan.
 This was the answer of the fight ing British armies to the German bid for pecae. Early in the day smashing blows had carried the British and Americans deep into the positions of the staggering enemy.
 The battle is one of the most fur ious, as well as one of the most inn portant of the war The British can non, wheel to wheel, sent tons of ex- plosives on top of the enemy in a whirlwind barrage during the better part of the night and early morning.
 The very air trembled and the earth rocked with the continuous roar of explosions. The exploding shells throbbed vividly against clouds from which the rain poured, the flashes be- ing visible for many miles
 The British armies attacked in a cOnverging operation in a northeast erly direction The fourth army. with which the Americans were cooperat- ing, attacked at a gap in the last Hindenburg system and for miles along the continuation of the Beaure- voir- -Masnieres line both on the front and in a turning movement So. it would appear that the general idea is to smash down the Hindenburg sys- tenn completely on a broad front. en- abling operations to be carried out to the east of it.
 The first phase of the attack began about o'clock in the morning when the infantry, with the assistance of an intense barrage, stormed the high ground immediately south of Cam brai where the Cambrai- Peronne rail way runs along. Special attention was given to other high ground in the southern outskirts of Cambrai, as the town is known to be strongly occupied by the enemy.
 As a matter of fact. some of these towns have probably already been taken, but information always is meagre so soon after an attack of such great proportions is launched.
 While this battle ragged, the British in the northern areas carried out de monstrations which gave the Ger mans ther something to worry about

PRESIDENT AN- SWERS GERMAN
 PEACE OFFER
Armistice is Refused. But Way to Peace is Left Open-Asks Some Pointed Questions Ger many Must Answer.

Washington, Oct. S.-The text of the communication handed by Secre- tary Lansing to the charge of Swift zerland here follows:
 "Sir-I have the honor to acknowl- edge, on behalf of the president, your note of October 6, enclosing the com munication from the German govern ment to the president; and I am in structed by the president to request you to make the following communi- cation to the imperial German chan celor:
 Before making reply to the re- quest of the imperial German govern ment, and in order that that reply shall be as candid and straightfor- ward as the momentous interests in volved require, the president of the United States deems it necessary to assure himself of the exact meaning of the note of the imperial chancellor. Does the imperial chancellor mean that the imperial German govern ment accepts the terms laid down by the president in his address to the Congress of the United States on the Sth of January last and in subsequent addresses, and that it's object in en- | tering into discussion would be only to agree upon the practical details of their application.
 "'The prsident feels bound to say with regard to the suggestion of an armstice that he would not feel at liberty to oppose a cessation of arms ! to the governments with which the government of the United States is associated against the central powers as long as the armies of those powers are upon their soil. The good faith of any discussion would manifestly depend upon the consent of the cen tral powers immediately to withdraw their forces everywhere from invaded territory.
 "'The president also feels that he is justified in asking whether the i'm perial chancellor Is speaking merely for the constituted authorities of the empire who have so far conducted the war. He deems the answer to these questions vital from every point of view
 Accept, sir, the renewed assuran- ces of my highest consideration.

AMERICANS IN ARGONNE FOREST
 ARE RESCUED
Battalion of American Troops Had Been Surrounded by the Germans-Exhausted After Holding Out Five Days.

With the American Forces North west of Verdun, Oct. 8.-With their ammunition nearly exhausted, and weakened from lack of food during five days, in which they had beer cut off from their comrades support in the thickets of Argonne, battal- ion of American troops has been res cued by relief eXpdition. according to reports received this morning
 The lost battalion, whose where abouts was a mystery for some time after it's disappearance during an at tack along the edge of the Argonne, comprised several hundred men un- der the command of Major Whittle- sey. Surrounded by the Germans, they made their stand with their pis- tols and rifles and few machine guns. When relief reached them their stock of cartridges was almost gone and the men were in a weakened condition from lack of food and the effcts of the dampness of these fall days, from which the trapped infan- trymen had no blankets to protect them.
 ! The relief expedition encountered great difficulty in aiding the rescued men, some of whom were so weak they had to be carried Medical sup plies and food are being rushed to their aid.
 Several efforts were made yester- day to obtain reports from the lost battalion by messenger and carrier pigeon. A basket containing a mum Der Of pigeons was lowerd by para chute in the vicinity of where the | Americans were thought to be. The aviator entrusted with this task de- clared that the basket seemed to fall exactly where he intended it should But no bird had returned up to late hour yesterday
 The American troops continued their advance asst of the Argonne un- til late Monday night. After the cap ture of Chatel Chehery they gained further ground.
 The advance was aided by the use of smoke bombs and heavy fog. A ! platoon of minenwerfers was captur- ed. During the night patroling was active. There was intermittent ar tillery firing during the night on account of movements behind the emmy lines.
