Bisbee daily review., 1918-10-17

Belgium and France. Seeing is be- lieving. one official declared tonight, and there will be no scrap of paper.
 In a military sense Germany would be treated as an individual prisoner of war-disarmed and guarded. Allied forces placed in strategic positions could then, by invasion of Germany if necessary, enforce any terms. The allied war council in which President Wilson holds one vote has agreed upon these conditions as guarantees for the supremacy of the allied arm ies
 It can be stated with official auth ority that should Germany agree to such an armistice, the downfall Of military oligarcy could be arranged easily at the peace conference with ont danger of accepting negotiated peace" Allied forces would be in a position to enforce the decisions ol the peace council.
 The chief question in the minds of public men tonight is: is the Ger man military power really so broken as to be ready to accept the allies terms?
 Throughout the American capital there is an air of calm, determined confidence. People are reading the news bulletins at the windows and buying Liberty bonds at the curbs.

BRITISH OFFICIAL

LONDON. Oct. 16.-The British forces in the sector between DOuai and Lille have made further gains all along the front and driven their line to within about two and a half miles southwest and three and thTee-quar- ters miles west of Lille, according to Field Marshal Haig's communication issued tonight
 : The text of the communication fol lows:
 We carried out a successful local operation last night in the Selel valley taking the village of Haussy and more than 300 prisoners.
 "On the DOuai-Lille front, the enemy i is continuing his withdrawal, closely followed by our troops. who have reached the general line of Oisnies, Carvin, Allenes-Les-M -Maris, Maugre and Capinghem. Sharp fighting has taken place in different points be- tween the enemy's rear guards and our advance attachments. Prisoners have been taken.
 "The British second army under command of General Plumer, co-ope- rating with the Belgian and French forces in Flanders, in the course of the past three days has realized an ad- vance of more than eight miles.
 During this period, despite strong opposition this army captured the towns of Confines, Wervicq. Menin, Wulverghem, Heule and Guerne and secured the northern portion of Cour- trai.
 "The left bank of the Lys river now has been cleared of the enemy as far as to the northeast of Harlebecke
 Today our troops crossed the Lys between Armentieres and Menin. In towns and villages captured by the second army in Flanders, many civil ians have been found and freed from the domination of the enemy. More than 4OO0 prisoners and upwards of 15O guns already have been taken.
 Tn these successful operations the ninth division. forming a part of the command of General Jacobs second corps has again fought with great dis tinction. Valuable and gallant service has been rendered also by the twenty ninth, thirty-fifth, thirty-sixth and for ty-first divisions, as well as other di- visions engaged

BELGIAN OFFICIAL

HAVRE, Oct 16.-The Belgians have extended their battle front north of the Handzeeme canal, where they have made progress in the region of Schoore, five miles from the North sea, southea5t of Newport, and gen erally gained ground eastward as far as Coolscamp, according to the official communication issued tonight. The town of Iseghem, east of Roulers, has been captured.
 At Coolscamp we are less than three miles from the important Thielt railroad. We have approached Ingle- munster, Hulst has been taken and we have gained ground along the Lys almost everywhere from Menin east ward to Harlebeke. We are at the gates of Courtrai.
 Further west We have crossed the Lys river and are less than two and a half miles from Turcoing. The attack is progressing methodically.
 The retreating enemy is throwing bombs into cellars where inoffensive inhabitants are awaiting deliverance." |"

GERMANS MAKE STAND

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY ON THE AISNE, Oct. 16, (By the Associ- ated Press, 2:30 p. m.l-Favored by the had weather and bad roads which are slowing up the advance of the allied supply trains, the Germans ap- pear disposed to make a stand, for the time at least, on the line from the re- zion north of Sissonne to Rethel.
 General Debeney's forces have made slight advance west of Anguilcourt, passing the Serre, and arriving before the marshes which the enemy is utiliz- ing with the aid of a well sustained machine gun fire to stop their for ward march. The German artillery has also increased in it's activity in this sector.
 North of Sissonne the French troops now are along the bank of the Drain age canal which constitutes the ad- vance defense positions prepared there as a secondary. line of retire ment from the Hindenburg line.
 Further east the Germans, support ed by a violent artillery fire, counter attacked the French troops under the command of General Guillaumat. This reaction was of TO avail, General Guil- laumat's men maintaining their line . quarter of a mile east of the road from St. Germainmont to Gerzicourt.
 General GOuraud took Acy, on the south bank of the Aisne southwest of Rethel. The Germans are smelling the rear areas all along the line and ap- pear to be reinforcing their line strongly with machine guns.

GERMANS FEARFUL OF ALLIED ARMS
 REACHING HOME

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN THE LAON AREA, Oct. 16 (By the Associated Press) The first news that reached the inhabitants of Laon of the radical change in the military situation came from German officers, who had, after the victories of the al- lies. already ceased to agree with the Berlin military critics, whose articles proclaiming eGrmany unbeaten are be- ing circulated by wireless. With an utter lack of caution which the hearel tock as a betrayal of despair. these of- ficers opened their minds and barred their hearts in the presence of people who had felt their oppression for four years
 Before a man in whose house they were billeted, and who understood the German language, officers declared:
 "The central empires are no longer able to stand out against the whole world Hard times are in store for the fatherland unless peace is ob- tained promptly"
 Without a word of regret for op- pression of the people whose roofs had sheltered them, they talked with unconcealed anguish of the possibility that their own people might feel the hardships of invasion.
 These direct confessions of defeat, contradicting the reports of the Berlin writers that the German retreat was purely a tactical retirement are sup ported by material facts not open to contrcversion. such as 4600 cannon 4r, n the allied offensive, or about one fourth of the entire armament of the German artillery, and a quartermil- Eon of prisoners taken during the same time on the western front alone.
 The Germans had about 1S0 divis- ions on this front on March 1 to which were added about thirty-two divisions relieved from the Russian front The German force has maintained in the , neighborhood of 205 divisions from April to September through drafts on the reserve depOts. The wastage be- gan to tell after the battles of July and August.
 On September 15 the Germans had on this front 200 divisions. including Austrian endorsements. Shortening their line had, however, enabled them to constitute a reserve of divisions The battles of September and the first days of October reduced their re serves to about thirty divisions, about half of which had been recently re tired from the front to be reconstruc- ted
 Twenty divisions had disappeared entirely hv October 10 fhrough nro- gressive dissolutions that had been confirmed from trustworthy sources. On that date the enemy had scarcely a dozen divisions in reserve that might be called fresh.
 The wastage in armament is not only in cannon captured by the allies but in diminished production by req son of drafts made upon war indus tries to reinforce the field forces and strikes
