 The enemy continues to destroy his stores of munitions in various locali- ties along the battle front, as is the practice of beaten army.
 May Capture Bountiful Crops.
 Further successes east of Montdid- fer would iron out the whole sector north to Lihons and result in the free ig of great territory from the Ger mans and wrestling from them much of the gains that resulted from the enemy's spring offensive.
 In addition, forward movement would take from the invaders the boountiful crops that they have been cultivating inside their lines and which now are ready to harvest.
 Many more prisoners have been taken during the operations of the last "A hours among them troops from at least four new divisions that were hurled in north of the Somme.
 New Troops Captured.
 Apparently the enemy has rushed in new troops from wherever they could be obtained for among the pri- soners are some from reserve batta- lions of divisions located far to the north.
 This would indicate that consider able confusion prevails among Crown prince Rupprecht's forces as result of the unexpected allied assaults and their continued successes.

FOG. SHIELDED
 BRITISH DRIVE,
 IS GERMAN ALIBI
Berlin Also Says Attack Was to Restore Briton's
 "Tarnished Record"

Amsterdam, Aug. 10.-The Anglo French successes are attributed to their surprise attacks and the pres- ence of thick fog over the battle field according to Berlin telegram received here quoting semi-official German news agency.
 Notwithstanding the exceedingly favorable ground fo rthe movement of great masses of troops and the operations of tanks, the initial success of the Anglo French armies under Field Marshal Haig have not surpass- ed the limit which usually result from a first days offensive" the agency declares.
 "A certain loss in guns and prison CTS in such circumstances is unavoid- able, but the enemy has not reached any of his stragetic goals.
 "His gains of ground is the less important because it comprises no consolidated system of defense, but was maneuvering ground where the fighting which started March 2t has not yet come to conclusion"
 Another semi-official utterance tele- graphed from Berlin says field Mar shal Haig undertook the attack to re- store the badly tarnished military prestige of Great Britain and asserts that, "as usual,' the brunt of the bat tie was not borne by the English, but by Canadians and Australians.
 An extremely dense fog the morn- ing of the 8th favored the enemy at- tack" the statement says.
 "The fog cloud so densely enveloped the Anglo-French tank squadroons who pushed forward after a sudden and formidable bombardment by ar- tillery that they could pass unhinder- ed by the German anti-tank fire and partly penetrate into the artillery lines"

Give Americans Credit for Savinq
 Paris From Capture by Germans

Washington, Aug. 10.-A graphic account of. the fighting near Chateau Thierry in which American division, including the Marine brigade, took part early in June, waes made public today by the navy department.
 It is in the form of a long letter from an officer of the Marine to Ma jor General Barnett, commandant of the corps, and the story told is of pe- culiar significance as in the opinion of many officers here it was the stand of the Americans along this line which saved Paris.
 The writer declares the rifle fire of Marines amazed the French who saw it.
 "That men should fire deliberately and use their sights and adjust their range, "he says, twas beyond their expectation. It must have had tell ing effect on the morale of the Boche for it was something they had not counted on.
 Germans Surprised at New Foe.
 "As a matter of fact after push ing back the weakened French and then running up against stonewall defense, they were literally up in the air and more than stopped.
 "We found that out later from pri- soners, for the Germans never knew we were in the front line when they made that attack. They were absol- utely mystified at the manner in which the defense stiffened up, when they found that our troops were in line."
 The letter tells in detail of the days of fighting that followed.
