Crown Prince Apparently
Saved Big Part of Army

NEW YORK, July 29.-(Summary Of
European Cables tot he Associated
Press. NORTH fthe Marine the tide
of German invasion is fast ebbing. The
fact that a general retreat in this re-
gion is going on is not questioned, and
the only question Of moment remaining
to be cleared up is the location of the
position at which the enemy will turn
at bay.
Since Saturday morning there have
been important changes in the battle
line between scissors and Rheims. To-
day il runs almost directly east from
Oulchy-le-Chateau to Fere-en-Tardenols,
then crosses the Ourcq and continues
eastward until it reaches the Dormans-
Rheims road northwest of Rheims
mountain.
1t had been contended by military ez-
perts that the Germans might elect to
stand on the line fthe Ourcq river,
from which their heavy cannon might
dominate the Paris Chalons railroad
along the Marine. This idea is now
proved erroneous. 1t appears that there
is no defensive position south of the
Vesle river to which the Germans can
retire and organize their resistance 10
allied pressure. The only other defen-
sive position seemingly possible Is the
one that follows the Aisne and Nes!e
from scissors to Fismes and from that
point follows the course of the Ardre
river toward Rheims. Burning Villages
along the Aisne and Vesle from Scis-
sons to Bazoches are reported and tend
to confirm the impression that the Ger
mans do not contemplate organized IT.
sistance south fthat line.
There is every Indication that the
German high command has succeeded in
extricating its forces from the trap
sprung by General Foch. The resist
ance of the Germans for a week after
the beginning of the allied counter Oh
fensive probably gave them time 70
withdraw their heavier guns and large
PROPORTION of their supplies from the
salient. This resistance was very strong
along the line south Of SCISSORS as far
as Oulchy-le-ViIe and west and south
west Of Rheims, which were the Vita
sectors of the battle line.
The advance of the allies east Oh
Oulchy-le- Chateau must soon compe
the enemy to evacuate the line from the
Ourco river toward scissors for a con-
siderable distance. Nearer Rheims, how
ever. the Germans seem TO hold posi-
tions that win provide a pivot for their
retreat toward the Vesle river.
In this region the allies this morning
were getting very cmlose to the Ard-4
river. which forms a protection to the
right flank fthe enemy positions near
Rheims.
AS the situation now stands, the Ger
mans must be considered to have sur
fered a severe defeat north Of the
Marine but it IS not a Sedan.
