London—British and French troops
have advanced to Gueux and Mery
Premecy, in the battle sector Just
west of Rbelms.
The new line shows an adance of
about ten miles toward Flames. This !
gain when seen on tbe map la of j
evident importance, for it greatly j
narrows the salient created by t!>e
German in tbeir drive of last May.
It no longer is proper to speak of
the pocket aa running from Soissons
to Rheims, for tbe newest advantage
of the entente alliee haa pulled the
eastern edge of tbe pocket eight mile)
to the westward, making Mery Pre-
mecy the marker for tbe eastern rim.
The mouth of the pocket is now
only twenty-one miles wide and the
whole district between the two sides
Is under tbe range of tbe entente
allied guns.
The French are continuing their
attacks between tbe river Ourcq iu<!
the river Marne. They advanced for
a distance of a mile, capturing tbe
southern part of Fere forest and tbe;'
now occupy a farm on the main road
from Fere-en-Tardenois to Jaulgonne.
The {own of Fere-en-Tardenola is now
within 8,000 yards of the French lines.
On tbe weat side or tbe pocket
the Franco-American troops have
straightened their line at the expShs?
of the Germans, this Involving a loss
to the enemy of about forty square
nf les of territory between Armentieres
and Ylncelles. The line in tbe lower
western part of the pocket now runs
straight southeast from Armentieraj.
and along thia line the Germans have
oeen compelled to give up all the
little angles and corners which thev
tad been holding onto aa observation
posts or strong points.
Nerve Center Under Fire.
The German military nerve center
at Fereen-Tardenoia, which, aa t'tie
Junction of several great roads, wa«
the most important storehouse an<l
distributing point cf tbe Germans, is
now under the cross fire from the
French and American artillery and
must be well night untenable. In
fact, no place in the whole pocket
is a very comfortable position with
the allied long range artillery sweep-
ing back and forth witb balloons aad
lirplanes directing the fire.
Possible evidence of a further with-
drawal by the Germans 1s seen on the
western flank of the pocket in tbe
fact that the German artillery fire hai
grown much lighter all through this
lector and the guns appear to be fir
'ng from greater distances behind
the line as if being pulled back to
places of Bafety.
Hun Admits Defeat
Biggest Battle of the War.
With the French Army in France—
Up to present seventy German divi-
sions have been identified in tbe prei-
mt fighting zone and the battle there-
fore may be regarded as the biggest
Unce the beginning of the war. Tho

ipproximately 840,000 men.
The prisoners taken number more
than 25,000 and more than 500 caj-
lon and thousands of machine guns
iae been captured.

all these boys already have been in-
corporated in fighting units. If all
>f them have been utilized they wouid
"orm 17 to 18 percent of the German
strength.

the 1920 class which it was intended
to be incorporated in the army of
October, has been ordered into the
units in September. Most of those
>f tbia class are not 18 years old.
Americans Account For 50,000.
With tbe American Army on the
Marne Front—The Americans have
Inflicted a loss of 50.000 men on tho
?nemy, acording to an unofficial es'.'-
msite. The total estimated enemy
losses in dead and wounded are ap*
polling.
The American and French troops
are never far behind the retreating
forces, and the vicious rear guard
actions are not sufficiently resistant
to enable the Germans to proceed In
tbe orderly manner planned.
