German position deeply over a front
Of more than twenty miles, from
near Breaches to near Morlaneourt.
Following short but intensive ar

completely surprised the Germans
who fed pell nell almost every

reached in remarkably quick time.
The advance is continuing. Where
ever the Germans offered any resis-

Thousands Of Germans were cap

were taken. A score or more Of viii

the enemy suffered heavy casualties
The allied gains extended two to
five miles deep and seven and half
miles near the center Of the line.
Fighting extended as far north as
Morlancourt to the Albert sector. but
the official details As to results are
unknown.
The allies advance has taken them
over two railroad lines serving to

WATCH THE FUR FLY.

Washington, Aug. 8.-Ameriean
troops. brigaded with the British. are
in action in the great new British
offensive before Ameins. Until their
identity is disclosed by General Per-
shing, however. officials here will not
cay what units are there.
On July 4, Gen. March stated that
the SD division. made up Of Illinois
troops, was in action on the Picardy
front. Since then, however. army
officers say that they have been re-
turned to Gen. Pershing's direct COM
mand.
Today's offensive is designed, army
officers say, to remove a serious mem
ace from the British front. The Ger
mans have been concentrating their
forces in great strength at Amiens
and il is believed here that the pur-
pose Of the present drive is to shove
them back there and compel a gener-
al retirement along the northern
front.
1t is assumed here that the with
drawal Of reserves from all along
the Picardy front to save the crown
princes army in its retreat from the
Scissors Rheims salient has weaken
ed the German forces sufficiently to
make another allied success possible.
Some army officers here today. how
ever we're inclined to believe Mar
shals Foch and Haig had discovered
evidences than the Germans were
planning an attack to lift the pres
sure on the Vesle line and had
simply beaten them to IT,"
The allied offensive which was
opened opposite Amiens today Is the
seventh drive Of the year. The first
hve were launched by the Germans.

and places follow;
German offensiyes: March 2l, Pi-
eardy; April Q. Flanders; May ~,
