The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-07-10

There seems to have been some spirited fighting on the British front along La Bassee canal, north west of Lens. and north of the Somme, in the Picardy sector. Ber- lin announces that the British were repulsed in frequently repeated at- tacks in the former region. and adds that their attacks north of the Somme broke down. The French attack at AntheuiI is mere ly mentioned in the official Ger man statement, which says, how ever. that attacks in the Viliers- Cotterets and Chateau Thierry sec toys, were repulscd by the Ger- mans.
 FIGHTING IN MACEDONIA
 While the fighting on the Mace donfan and Albanian frontiers must remain a side issue to the great battles that are expected mo- mentariIy in France. and possibly northern Italy. the progress of the French and Italians along the Ai- banian coast brings that theatre of war into consideration.
 Rapid strides have been made since the French and Italian ns- saults were launched north of Av- IOna July 6. Strong Austrian po- sitions have been stOrmed, and it appears that the allies have been successful in turning the Austrian right wing. An official statement have gained the Austrian rear and destroyed bridges across the Se- mini river. which parallels thc VoyuSa, where the attack was be- gun. This marks an advance of about 15 miles.
 VON KUEHLMANN QUITS
 Dr. Richard Won kuehlanm, the German foreign minister, has re- tired from office, it is announced, and the German Emperor has ac- cepted his resignation. This has been expected since Yon Kuehl- mann's address in the German ThCtCHSNuS JuDC HI tn1 COuESC OA which he said that victory by pure ly military decision could hardly be expected.
 Cxecho-SlOvak forces in eastern Siberia have extended their sphere of influence up the Amur river to Nikolayevsk. m important naval station. The defeated boIshevfk troops, with their AustrO- German allies, are said to have retired toward khabarovsk. the capital of the maritime province.
 General Pershing's official statc- ment of operations along the sec tors held by Americans makes cs- peciai mention of heavy German troop movements near MuIhouse, In Alsace. It is also reported that German airmen are very actiye in that sector of the front,
