Overseas ForceRepulse-Complete.
Battle Continued Two Hours. '
With the American Army in France, Wednesday, April 10.
(By the Associated Tress.) The German made an attack against
the American position northwest of Toul just before aunriae this
morning and were completely repulsed. Two German prisoners
said the enemy plunnod the attack with a force of 800 men, but that,
it was stopped in its full strength by the effective fire of the Amer
ican artillery. The Americans lost no prisoners. One of the Ger
man prisoners died later of wounds. (,
' The attack was the heaviest yet made on an American force.
Brilliant work by American gunners dispersed the German infantry
he'forc they reached the wire entanglements and those of the enemy
who got into the wire were accounted for with machine gun and
riile fire. The German attack came after a violent artillery bom
bardment of three days. A large mimbrr of (he enemy afe believed '
to have hern killed or wounded during the attack, which continued ,
for nearly two hours. a -
For seventy-two hours before their
effort, thn Germans hnd been firing an
Increasing number of shells and mak.
ing extensive uso of gas shells. At
noon yeslwrday the enemy begun n ha
rassing flii) against o.tn of our strong
points and kept it np tlunuhout the
night, dropping hundreds of shells of
all callta on both front and , rear
positions. The American artillery re
plied vigorously, the me., in aoim bat
t erica working wlli their gna masks on
for two or three hours at a stretch.
At about (.o'clock this morning Her
man infantrymen In the front lino
signalled their butteil s for a barrage
and started for the American front line.
The American gunners laid a counter
barrage almost hunted. ately.
The attackers, who worn especially
trained for this operation, were selected
from among -tho best men In three reg
iments. They were preceihvd by shock
platoons, but thn American harragu
taught them before tbvy were able lo
reach our wire entanglements.
Casualties Severe.
A tori-IIUi lire agonal the advancing
eanmy waa kept up by the Amwlcaii
batteries. The Ur.rmaue probably sut
fi red severe casualties as several bod
ies were seen hanging across I be
barbed wire iifteT the tnoiny retired.
The attack was made In a heavy morn
Ing mist, but Ihe American gunners
did wonderful work, considering the
poor visibility.
As soon as I tin American barrage
lifted American Infantrymen climbed
from their shelter and al tacked thn
enemy with heavy machine gun and
rifle lire, driving back ilinae who had
not been dispersed by the artillery lire.
Thn attack was followed by a vio
lent, artillery duel which was still go
Ing on at a late hour tonight.
