 LEAVES MENACE
FrancO.British Positions About Rheims Places TeutOn Flank in Grave Danger-FOch May Split
 Line.

Washington, July 29-French and Americans were still pressing for ward vigorously today in the cam paign that has up tD this time suc- ceeded in eiecting the enemy from more than half of the Aisne-Marnp salient
 Belated announcements from Ber- lin that further withdrawal had been in progress since last FriGay night left it greatly in doubt as to whether the German high command plans to make a stand. TAe majority opinion among officers here, however, was that a strong line could not be set up short of the Vesle river, and that even there, the F'ranco-British posi- tions about Rheims would keep the German left flank in constant dan ger. There was a strong feeling that the eventual line resulting from General Foch's bold counter attack blows would be along the heights of the Aisne.
 Salient Greatly Reduced.
 As the line stood, according to the last available reports tonight, it ap- peared certain that the evacuation announced by the enemy had not been completed. The salient has been reduced until it no longer has any thing of the old wedge shape. The apex has been driven in so that an irregular line paralleling the Sols- sons-Rheims base has been created. resting on the two sides of the old salient reaching southward from Soissons and Rheims, respectively. It lo order to get his armies out of the depths of the pocket at the Marne that the enemy employed reserves , lovishly.
 The most bitter fighting recently reported is along the center of the Irregular line that now forms the front between the flank positonss Franco-American fOrcess were fight ing fiercely with enemy rear guard here at last accounts, and a crack division of Prussian guards had been hurled against the American posi- tions in a counter attack to check their progress.
 Foch May Split Line.
 This suggested to observers here 1 that General Foch was seeking to force a wedge into the very center 1 of the enemy's retreating lines, plan ming to take the strong flank posi- tions in the rear and force and even more precipitate withdrawal. There were signs that, a definite msinor pocket was being created by thiss thrust which promised to crumple up the German position west of Fere. 1 en-Tardenois. At the same moment hammer blows against enemy posi- tions south of Soissons indicated the beginning of pincer movement there as we'll.

May Have Directed Opera tions From Farm on New

New York, July 29.-Bruno Opper- man, German, was arrested on his farm near Englishtown. N. J., and brought here today by agents of the department of justice as dangerous enemy alien. A wireless outfit and a high slag pole which could have been used for aerials was said to have been found on the place.
 Several weeks ago. when u-boats were operating off the New Jersey coast, the authorities made an effort to locate the wireless plant believed to be in communication with the sub marines. Opperman's farm, where the owner lived alone, is well se- cluded.
 Federal agents found in his house German military pass made out to Heinrich Bruno Opperman," which the suspect admitted was fssued to him.

CAPTURED SERGY
 HALF-DOZEN TIMES
Americans Forced Back by kaiser's Finest Reserves But Return and Crush Enemy's
 Attack.

With the American Army on the Aisne Marne Front, July 29 By The Associated Press (Evening)-The American troops tonight still held the apex of their advance, won after a struggle with the Germans in which the opposing lines moved forward and backward time and again, Sergy, on the north bank of the Ourcq chang ing hands six times.
 The crown prince of Germans and his generals paid the Americans great compliment in bringing up against them two of their best divis- ions, the fourth guards and Bavar- ians. They had been held in reserve, presumably for the operation. They had been delayed and reached the ar night. They moved through retreat into action early today. They did not replace any of the German troops all ready in the line, but served as rein forcements.
 The first efforts of the guards and Bavarians were partly successful, and the American forced were to with uIdW lfOlll OcISy dIlu leW JULIET positions including the town of Ser inges-E But the Germans could not force the main body across the river. The stream is narrow and shallow and some detachments at times were driven back but always there remained enough Americans on the north bank to check the German rushes and in every instance the Americans returned to the fray with great spirit: It was veteran Ameri- can division and today's opposition to the terrific onslaught made against it justified the confidence of the staff that it was more than equal to anthing the crown prince had to of- fer.
 The Germans were not content with the stubborn resistance which has characterized their fighting so much lately. Artillery supplemented the machine guns and infantry and the trained guard and Bavarians began their work ill manner reflecting their confidence.
