It is now asserted that Paris ports regarding the Seicheprey aff: are pure inventions, especially the de- tails of the reoccupation of trenches given by the French wireless service. | The French version seems to be that the Americans successfully recon- quered the lost ground, while, accord- ing to the German report, no attempt was made by the Americans to regain their positions until about midnight on the 21st, when their patrols cautiously reconnoitered them. But, says the German report, not till between 5 and 6 o'clock on the morning of the 22d did the Americans resume possession of their lost positions that had been completely destroyed on the evening of the 20th. Those German propagandist Teports also say that the Germans never planned to continue the occupation af Seichepre: which, being situated on verv low ground, is not in any way suitable for defensive purposes.

But they have become victims of a complete surprise in the section of the Moselle hills that has been en- trusted to them because at that shot each opponent was able to look right into the other’s position and observe at long range any offensive prepara- tions. Only a short artillery prepara- tion sufficed to take two and a half kilometers of their position, with scarcely any loss on our part, and in the fight of man to man in and around the village American boxer tricks availed little ‘against our war veterans.
