North of the Marne They Have Re- taken Manteuil-la-Fosse. With_the French Forces in France, July 17—(By The Associated Press, Evening).—The Germans today were throwing their utmost efferts north- ward on the Marne in the direction of Manteuil-la-Fosse, which fell mo- mentarily into their bhands, but short- ly afterwards was retaken by the French in a brilliant counter-attack. The situation is generally regarded as excellent for the allies, who, instead of having to meet an offensive on a grand scale, now are being forced to war - off only local attacks. South of the Marne numerous Ger- man attacks were repulsed, while the allies in counter-attacks rezained some ground north of St. Agnan. Among the allied soldiers the feeling prevails that they have regained the ascendancy over the enemy, and they go forward with the greatest confi- dence when ordered to carry out counter-attacks, even when their num- bers are considerably smaller than those of the enemy. | | HOW GERMAN NEWSPAPERS ARE DECEIVING READERS.| Inform Them That Americans Not “Honcrable Fighters Are The Hague, July 17.—German news- papers received here are raising quite a pother over a story received in Germany from Switzerland to the ef- fect that a large number of American troops have been supplied with sawed- off shotguns for close fighting. The Cologne Gazette, in comment- ing on the report, denounces Ameri- ca's barbarism and assumes that tom- ahawks and scalping knives will soon appear on the American front. The newspaper warns the German troops that the Americans are not “honor- able warriors.” The Weser Zeitung says the bar- barous shotguns have been served out not because they are ligely to be ef- fective but because the ill-trained Americans cannot use rifles and are badly supplied with machine guns.
