GERMAN ATTACKS ON
YANKEE LINES FAIL
Americans Counter Attack and
Drive Huns Out Of Own First
Line Trenches.
BY Associated Press.

With the American Army in France.
Sunday, April 7.-On the front north
west Of Toul Friday night the Germans
attempted two raids, but both were re-
pulsed. American infantrymen went
out of their trenches on the second oc-
casion n chased the Germans from
the German first line trenches into the
support trenches.
Details Of the action were made pub
lie in the following official report issued
tonight:
The enemy raided out trenches at
two points. The first attack was re-
pulsed easily. In the second the enemy
was allowed to reach our wire entangle-
ments. Then our fire opened and a
moment later the American infantry
men rushed out in attack, driving back
the foe. The pursuit was continued
until the first enemy trenches were
emptied and the Germans had been
driven back to their support trenches.
Enemy artillery activity was fol-
lowed by extremely active Smelling by
our heavy artillery which silenced two
enemy batteries"

formed a part of No Mans Land in the
first battle of the Somme. 1t is shell
torn and altogether Is an unpleasant
place over which to conduct operations.
Not only is the ground bad but the
whole sector is dominated by British
machine guns which sen never ending
streams of bullets swirling down into
the enemy camps. which present ex-
cellent targets.
Woods Full of Dead.
The enemy was simply trying to get
II hold on the dominating ridges. They
failed to advance at most points about
the salient and even lost q considerable
stretch OF ground in a counter attack
by h British between Hebuterne and
Rossignol wood. where the British
pushed forward some 500 yards. At
Rucquoy the Germans had some sue
cess and got Al footing in some places
but their attack as a whole was a big
failure. The enemy casualties were
very heavy because of the dominating
positions held by British machine gun
ncrs dnd riflemen.
Rossignol wood was found to be
filled with German dead and the low
lying ground in front OF the ridges told
an awful story. 1t seems certain the
Germans will try again to capture the
heISntS TOT tuey CannOt Slt Wnere they
are.
The British counte attacks at Avelny
wood, south Of Mesnil yesterday was
an entire success and the old positions
We're returned. The men who went
through this fight declare that the
Germans lost three killed to one for the
British. It was a desperate fight. The
British stormed the o after battling
forward with machine guns and rifles
and then continued the battle with
hand grenades and bombs. The Ger
mans chung te~naciously TO their posi-
tons, but were gradually forced TO fall
back, leaving many dead.
Prisoners captured by the British
say that the casualties among the Ger
man officers and on-commissiOned
officers have been very heavy since the
beginning of the offensive and that
non commissioned officers previously
combed out because of age or wounds
are being brought back into he line.
A German airman taken prisoner
said that the British had more and bet
ter airplanes than the Germans. He
said the Germans could not run the risk
of wasting machines in this sort OF war
fare.
The prisoner. formerly a school
master. was convinced that the war
would end this year. He implied that
he thought the Germans would wear
tho allies out for the declared the Ger
naEs would keep on attacking.

British Stop Advancing Boches
With Whitening Artillery Fire

with the British Army in France.
fSunday) April ATTACKS and coun-
ter attacks continue to spring up at
various points along the British battle
front. While hone OF them has seemed
large, as compared with the intense
conflict waged In the first days of the
German offensive, yet all Of them are
important in hat they represent the
foundation work for bigger events to
come.
Twice last evening and again this
morning the Germans undertook TO ad-
vance at points in the sector north and
south Of Albert at each attempt they
failed. At S o'clock this morning a
considerable enemy force advanced for
an attack in the vicinity of Bucguy,
north Of Albert.
The Germans We're seen coming while
they were still a mile away and the
British artillery and machines put
down such an intense barrage among
them that the projected assaults were
stopped. Some time afterward the en-
envy reformed his forces and mad an
other attempt. bu this was checked
without the Use OF infantry.
one of the attacks last evening was
delivered southwest of Albert, where
the enemy had been battling SO deter
minedly to get q stronghold on the AL
bert-Amiens railway. Under cover OF
a heavy machine gun Darrage the Ger
man infantry surged forward against
the British line, but was met with such
a whitening rifle and machine gun fire
that 1t was forced to retire. The other
onslaught was attempted near Scrre,
south OF Hebterne. Two short and in.
tense periods of barrage fire were put
down on the British defenses. At 1880
o'clock the German infantry rushed for
ward in heavy force. AS the Germans
advanced they were caught in "A tornado
of British artillery fire which ploughe!
mercilessly through their ranks and
completely smashed them.
Further fighting occurred TO-DAY nj
H.agard wood which has becn the
scene OF much cruel fighting in the last
few days. The British. In the early
hours, delivered counter attacks by
which they forced the enemy back
somewhat and tool a few prisoners.
According to the latest reports the
British are holding on To the western
edge OF this wood.

and yesterday near Serre were continu-
atoms Of their attempts to
get themselves out OF 81 nasty posi-

100000 German Reserves Cut to
Pieces by French in Four DAYS

Mount Renaud, near Noyon, saw re-
peated attacks from the Germans
throughout Saturday, but all were
equally futile. The hill was the first
point where the French barred the Ger
man advance through the Disc valley
toward Compeigne and Paris. When
the Germans first swept down from
Noyon the hill changed hands repeated
ly. The ground whereabouts shows
striking evidence of the fearful nature
Of the battle in the number Of dead
bodies that can be seen.
Since March 80, the French have not
budged. In fact they have gained some
ground on the northern slopes of the
hill. The Germans occupied two hills
overlooking Mount Renaud which pos
sess little practical value. although they
afford a view OF what is going on in
Noyon and slightly beyond the town.
Further eastward along the Disc the
French fell back Saturday from the
dangerous salient north Of Amigny.
Fighting all the way, they retired to
better positions which had been pre-
pared along h Ailette river.
