HoLf of the Marne
Pocket Is Refaken;
Foe Speeds Flight

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES ON
THE MARINE, July 2S.-French cav
airy, supported by some infantry ele-
ments, advancing in the Soissons-
Rheims salient. has reached the dis
trict south of Villers-sur Fere, a little
more than mile to the southeast of
Fere- -Tardenois, and Sergy, one and
three-quarter miles east of Villers-sur-
fere.
Southwest of Rheims the French cav
airy is advancing swiftly on the Vile
en- Tardenois road. The Allied success
has been complete along the whole
front. Half of the pocket in which the
Germans had been cornered has been
retaken.
Fere- en-T -Tardenols, the town on the
Ourcq River in the middle of the Marne
pocket, which had been used by the
Germans as a great supply base. is Sc
liously threatened.
The losses of the enemy have been
extremely heavy. The German retreat
is assuming rapid character.
The magnificent move of Generals
Foch and Petain. splendldly carried out
by Gouraud, Mangin, Degoutte and
Berthelot, is bringing results The
Germans under irresistible pressure
are retreating all along the front.
The information given out officially
no longer covers the full situation.
New-York tribune., 1918-07-29

pieces going forward with the ad-
vanced line--they proceeded almost
unchecked to the river, crossed the
bridge and occupied the town about
mid forenoon.
Battle in Streets
The Germans used gas, but the
attacking party long ago had its
baptism of gas fumes and knew
how to utilize the masks and to
avoid the ravines through which the
fumes filtered. When the town was
occupied there was some street
fighting, but not much, the Germans
retreating to higher ground.
Until to-day the wounds received
by the American soldiers have not
been serious, as a rule, on account
of the failure of the Germans to
use artillery. A great majority of
the wounds were clean flesh
wounds, made by bullets from
machine guns and rifles
Considerable material has been
captured, including a few locomo-
tives which the Germans put out of
commission. There were relatively
few prisoners
Many stories are told along the old
lines of the depreciation in the Ger
man morale. The greatest signif-
canoe is attached to letter taken
from an officer, written by his
brother in Germany, giving it as his
opinion that revolt was imminent
unless the war was stopped.

German Troops
Scared BY 7 ales
Of Car7ibQlisn,
By The .4ssociated Press

'pN me .iSSOCtUttu fFeSSl
WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
TRANCE. July 2S Continued rain has
turned the Flanders front at many
places into an almost impossible mire,
While all other parts of the front are
wet and soggy.
Such conditions are most unfavorable
for launching an assault against the
British lines, even if the enemy who
s busy trying to save his troops north
of the Marne from further defeats,
should have some such plan in mind.
Large quantities of gas have been
projected against the German lines,
which have also been shelled freely,
and according to prisoners, the enemy
units are losing strength little by
