Tho Germans have thrown more than
1.000.000 men Into the gigantic battle
between Solssons and Klu'ims
Even this formidable force, however,
appears to have made not more than
a dent or two in the allied front in its
latest effort, while at various points
progress for the allies, sliphi, but im
portant. is reported.
Regarding it- strength of the Ger
man forces, unolliclal advices state that
there aro seventy-one Teuton divisions
engaged in this stru-sle. I he strength
of a German divu- ->n is about i:'..50?>
on a normal footing, so that ;f all

the neighborhood of 500,<i"0 men be

number of divisions engaged in the

GERMANS i;SIC MACHINK
rili.vs M III DEIt Ol SLV IN FIGHT
WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON
THE AISNK-MAHNE FRONT, July 30.
?Through a barrage ns deadly as any 1
the Germans have laid down on any !
sector for months, the American sol
diers, comprising men from the .Mid
dle West and Eastern States. pushed
their line forward a little more to
day, and to-night it forms the apex of
the long allied front.
Their progress was considerable,
though less than two miles, but it is
regarded as a brilliant operation in
view of the determined countering by
the Germans
The Americans withstood two heavy
attacks during the night, and at day
light their optra'ions, which lef* them
to-night well to the north of Sergy on
'"the lonjr slope? approaching the heavy
woods beyond Neslcs, a little town di
rectly east of Seringes-tt-Nesles. whose
retention the Germans bitterly op
posed.
; The east end of the line swings
northeasterly opposite this point and
then drops off sharply in the direction
pf Ctergesj and Roncheres. The Ourcrj
River has hrt-n left far behind, the line
being pushed forward across the zone
to the northwest.

so.?Six war-tired American Congress
ii.oti arc on their way back to Paris
to-day aftur having witnessed from a
I.iHside on Monday the tussle for pos
sesion of the town of Scrgy, two and
a half miles southeast of the former
German base at Fere-en-Tardenols, in
;ho Soissons-Rheimx pocket.
The Congressmen saw American In
fantrymen in action, witnessed the ftr
ing of entente allied big guns and
h'-.ird the rattle of German machine
guns and the crashing of the heavy
i-atmon of the German Crown Prince.
The Congressmen probably would have
remained on the eminence longer
had not the German heavy shells be
gun exploding overhead. That ended
the sight-seeing trip in that vicinity,
one Congressman remarking that the
Germans could quit that sort of busi
ness ri;:ht. then so far as he was con
cerned.
The Congressmen who had visited
t!"? Austro-Italian front said their ob
servations on Monday showed to them
the first .actual fighting worth talk
ing about. The party was conducted
by lieutenant Freeman Light, of South
Nor walk. Conn., and it * consisted of
Itepresentati ves Thomas A.""Chandler,
of Oklahoma: M. Clyde Kelly, of Pen.n
sylvania; Louis C. Cramton. of Michi
gan; Thaddeus Caraway, of Arkansas;
John A. Klston. of California, nnd Jo
seph Thompson, of Oklahoma. The
Congressmen had luncheon on the hill
side of Chateau-Thierry amidst the
ruins of numerous fine homes, the lazy
Marno creeping- along through a great
r,ap in what was Chateau-Thierry's
finest bridge and now destroyed by Iho
C? rmans
While the Congressmen were sitting
down to a basket luncheon, a fashion
ably attired woman from Paris came
to the ruins of her old homo, where
she found a group of American sol
diers in possession. The woman ex
I plained her mission in broken Kng
j lish. She went to the basement, re
quested the aid of the American soi
j diera and had a private dig a hole in
the basement at a point indicated by
her. The soldier soon uncovered a
basket full of bonds, securities and
olher valuables. Among them were .a
lot of 5 per cent gold ?100 bonds of
the defunct St. I^ouis. Oklahoma and
Oulf Railroad. The woman gave the
toldier three bonds for his trouble.
The Congressmen visited the shat
tered houses in Chateau-Thierry and
also the hillside dugouts formerly oc
cupied by the Germans gathering nu
merous souvenirs. They then proceed
ed toward the battle field, eventually
reaching the hill southeast of Fere-en
Tardenois.

"The enemy held Seringes in great
strength. The village was also pro
tected by machine-gun nests on either
side. The attack was an almost in
credible affair for the coolness with
which it was carried out and for the
mere fact that it could be done under
such conditions.
"The assaulting troops formed up on I
the south side of the Ourc<i on open I
ground. The enemy opened upon them
a heavy tire of artillery and machine j
guns along the slopes cast and west ;
of the river. The ground in front of!
the advancing lines was plowed by I
the enemy's tire, and the advance was j
obscured by clouds of dust from the j
cornfields through which they were '
marching'. Nevertheless, the men ford
ed the river with drill-like steadiness.
"it was a wonderful performance for
any troops, astounding for troops so
recently blooded and as fine a test as
any to which the American army has
been put.
"The men went steadily up tho
slopes, silenced one after another of
the German machine-gun nests and 1
swept on to the top of the hill. then. I
wheeling eastward, stormed the. vil-1
lage. It was a fierce fight. There was
no asking or giving quarter. The
enemy was stout-hearted and 'the
Americans glad to llnd htm bo. They
wanted that sort of a flnlsh to their
ordeal. Some of the Germans (led Into
Nesles forest. The remainder are
where they will remain?in the vil

"The last success of the day was
the capture of hill -12. above Sergy.
which can now bo l?cl<l on much se
curer terms.
