southwestward on a front between
Noyan and Chateau-Thierry, seeking
to advance along the three great val
Ieys Of the Disc, Ourcq and Marine.
But along every one Of these
routes, now that the intentions Of the
German high command are revealed,
the resistance is increasing hourly.
As result the enemy's progress is
decreasing.

ATTACK ON NEW YORK CITY
POSSIBILITY TO BE CONSIDERED

The authorities, however. consider
ed the possibility of an air raid by
airships launched from the deck OF
a submarine. This theory has been
widely discussed in the past and its
practicability is admitted by some ex-
perts on naval matters.
American military officials have so
accepted such a possibility, in fact,
that anti-air craft guns long have been
established at strategic points around
New York City and its environs, ac
cording to reliable reports
In case the Huns should attempt to
bomb New York, it is agreed that il
would be merely for the effect on
American morale, rather than because
Of any military reason.

sign.
The schooner was making abou,
three knots an hour In a light breeze
and the submarines had no trouble ir
making her halt. One shot was fired
across the vessels bows from gun
mounted on the forward deck Of one
OF the U boats.
Just az the schooner halted, the
smoke Of steamer was seen on the
horizon. One submarine Immediately
sheered off and made away in pur-
suit.
The other U boat came closer along
side and the commander shouted
through a megaphone, giving the
Americans ten minutes in which to
leave their vessel. The submarine
launched a small boat, rowed along
side the schooner, planted bombs in
the hold and blew up the ship.

Colossal Bombing Warfare.

front nightly.

dropping high explosives from sunset

back area the countryside literally
rocks with stunning super-concus-

Another base hospital, one of the
biggest in the war zone. and as far

WITH THE AMERICANS IN PIC.
ARDY, June 3-W1th our forces scat
tered from the English channel tc
Switzerland, the greatest moments in
American history are impending. The
capture Of Cantigny has given the
troops here a new confidence and a
new zip to their fighting spirit 1t is
also reflected throughout the armies
in other sectors. 1t has given feel
| ing to their comrades that they can
do every bit as well-or even better
if afforded the opportunity.
| French civilians cheer and salute
the Americans. Children alongside
the roadsides bring their hands smart
! ly to salute as Americans pass. Hope
| and confidence rests in the Americans.
On every side it is evident, as France
fights for her life, that she looks to
America as worthy comrade in arms.
The comradeship of the French and
Americans is even closer than before
as the French face the new crisis.
The past twenty-four hours have
been without any incident of note on
this front.
Pershing's Communique.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-General
Pershing's communique Of June 2,
made public today, denies the German
official report that Franco-American
depots were captured by the enemy.
"The German official communique,
Pershing said, says Franco-American
depots of numerous extent entered in
to our possession at Fere-EnT Tarden-
ois."
This statement is absolutely un-
true, there being no American depots
in that region"
