ALLIES HAVE MADE STILL FURTHER GAINS BETWEEN SOISSONS AND CHA The Germans Are Steadily Giving Ground, Though Offering Stubborn Resistance FRENCH HAVE RECAPTURED CHATEAU THIERRY The Entire Southern Bank of the Marne Has Been Cleared of Enemy Forces, and French, British and Italian Troops Are Harassing Those Southwest of Rheims—The Plight of the Germans in the Southwestern Portion of the Sois- sons-Rheims Salient is Becoming Increasingly Dangerous —U-Boats Are Again Operating in American Waters. e (By The Associated Press.) Over the entire sixty-mile front running from Soissons to Rheims the allied troops are fighting with a de- termination that brooks no denial of their efforts. And the Germans 5t are giving ground, though stubborn resistance is being offered on some sectors. Further goodly sized indentations have been mdae in the German line between Soissons and Chateau Thierry by the American and French troops, and almost all the gains made by the Germans in their recent drive south of the Marne and toward the vicinity of Rheims have been blotted out un- der the counter-attacks of the Amer- icans, French, British and Italians. Chateau Thierry, which represents the point in the battle line where the Germans had driven their wedge near- est to Paris, has been recaptured by the French troops, and almost simul- taneously the villages of Brasles, two miles eastward, and the heights to the north of the village fell into their hands. Acting in harmony with the move- ment on Chateau Thierry, American and French troops northwest of the city struck the Germans another hard biow, broke through the German lines and drove through at some points more than three miles. Large num- hers of prisoners were taken and the chine guns of the allied troops lit- mowed down the Germans who vored to stay their progress. the north along the Ourcq valley the French are making good progress toward the impertant junction town of Nanteuil-Notre Dame, while the oOperations - south...and...

Amsterdam, July 21.—The death of Quentin Roosevelt is confirmed by a Wolff Bureau message from the front, according to a Berlin despatch re- ceived here. ‘The message adds that voung Roosevelt was buried with mili- tary honors by the Germans. The story of the fatal encounter, as told by the ‘Wolff Bureau correspondent, follows: “On Sunday, July 14, an American squadron of twelve battle planes was trying to break through-the German defense over the Marne. In the violent combat which ensued with seven Ger- man machines, one American aviator stubbornly made repeated aftacks. This culminateq in a duel between him and a German non-commissioned of- ficer, whao, after a short fight, succeed- ed getting good aim at his brave but unexperienced opponent, whose ma- chine fell after a few shots near the village of Chambry, ten kilometres north of the Marne. “His pocket case showed him to be Lieutenant Quentin Roosevelt of the aviation section of the United States army. The personal belongings of the fallen airman are being carefully kept with a view to sending them later to his relatives. The earthly remains of the brave young airman were buried with military honors by German air- men near Chambry at the spot where he feil” i OBITUARY. Rev. Galusha Anderson. Wenham, Mass, July 21. — Rev. Galusha Anderson, theologian, died 7 to 1890 he was P T university, of Granville, Ohio.'His home was in New- tonville. Rattling tongu found in empty heads. The entire southern bank of the Marne having been cleared of enemy forces, French, Briti and Italian troops are now harassing those south- west of Rheims, and they have been forced to fall back in the Courton Wood, the Ardre valley and near St. Euphraise, notwithstanding their des- perate resistance. Doubtless the Brit- ish operating with the allied forces in this region represent a portion-of the great reserves that everywhere are being brought up along the battle line in an endeavor to make secure the victories already won and enladge them. With the capture of Chateau Thier- Tty and the fast progress of the French and Americans eastward from the northern sectors, the plight of the (GGermans in the southwestern portion of the Soissons-Rheims saiient be- comes increasingly hazardous, and it is not improbable that when stock fi- nally is taken large numbers of pris- oners and quantities of guns and war stores will be found to have been cap- tured by the allied troops. Aviators continue to lend assistance to the troops of General Foch, scouting the back areas and harassing the retreat- ing Germans with their machine guns. Notable work has been done by ‘American Indians for General Persh- ing's men, the aborigines taking a prominent part, in characteristic west- ern fashion, in scouting in the Marne region. It has definitely been established that an enemy submarine is again op- erating in American waters. An un- derwater boat Sunday off Cape Cod, Mass., destroyed four barges, and a tug and dropped four shells on the mainland. Several persons afloat were injured, but no one on land was| harmed by the shells. A FAVORABLE IMPRESSION IS CREATED IN HOLLAND By the Allied Victory—Newspapers Comment on Ilts Importance. Amsterdam, July 21.—The allied v tory has created a deep impression throughout Holland. The Telegraaf says that anything is possible; that the capture of 400 guns will fill the Germans with consternation. Han- delsblad says the double TFranco- American success revived French cour- age and rejoices the Americans, whose young army has proved that it is ca- pable of vigorously tackling the Ger- mans. The greatest importance of the vic- tory; according to the Nieuws Van Den Dag, is the scoring of a tactical and partly even strategical success | against the German commanders, Even if the Germans recovered their advan- tageous position, the paper says, the fact remains that the spell of the German army commands is broken. Tyd emphasizes the great strategical advantages achieved by General Foch within a few hours. | WOMAN AWARDED CROSS OF THE LEGION OF HONOR. Miss Fraser, an English Ambulance Driver, Cited by General Foch. Paris, July 20 (Saturday).—On rec- ommendation from General Foch, Pre- mier Clemenceau has decorated Miss Fraser, an English ambulance drjver, vith the Cross of the Legion of Honor and the war cross. The citation reads: “Charged with. the transport of wounded men on Thursday night un- der heavy bombardment, she received two serious wounds from a torpedo which destioyed her ambulance. She had the superb courage to reach the hospital 200 feet away afoot to inform the doctor of the plight of the wound- ed men. She then fell unconscious. When transported to the hospital for an operation, she insisted that her wounds should not be treated before the doctors attended the injured mgn for whom she was responsible.” ® BUSSIERES MONTMIRN o . - MAP GHOWING GAINS MADE BY THE ALLIED FORCES.

STRIKE THREATENED AT BRITISH MUNITIONS WORKS Unless the Embargo on Skilled Labor is Withdrawn. London, July 21.—The ministry of munitions announced tonight that it had received word that at a mass meeting of munitions workers at Bir- mingham today it was resolved to o on strike Wednesday night ‘unless the embargo on skilled labor is withdrawn. The statement says the ministry is in close touch with the union leaders. both directly and through the ministry of labor. At Coventry the local committee pro- posed to an official of the ministry who is holding conferences there, to recom- men a suspension of the strike notices 1f the ministry would consent to negoti- ate a restriction scheme in districts and recommend a local conference to consider the question of the, utilization of skilled labox. The ministry’s rep! said it was not opposed to the discu: sion and administration of the plan al- though the government's ‘“considered policy in the matter of the embargo scheme cannot be a matter for discus- sion.” It also said it would be prepar- ed to enter into a discussion if repre- sentations were made by both the em- ployers and the unions regarding the necessity for a further conference on the better utilization of skilled labor apart from the embargo. The ministry added: “The ministry cannot carry on the supply of munitions to the troops without reasonable power to distribute skilled labor according to vital war needs.” The minstry also issued an appeal tonight to the workmen on patriotic grounds to remain at work and lend no aid to “a movement which hay have, consequences of the gravest kind.” TORPEDOED VESSELS WITHOUT ANY WARNING Crews Were Not Given an Opportuni- ty to Seek Safety in Small Boats. ‘Washington, July 21 the tactics adopted by the submarines which last raided American waters, | the German sea wolf which appeared today off the Massachusetts cos pedoed and shelled vessels giving the crews opportunity to scek | safety in small boats. ~In contrast to This fact was accepted in some quarters as indicating that the mans were undertaking to I campaign of “frightfulness home to America in the hope ing the morale of the nation. this attempt would have no more s cess than the raid of last May dnbcl June w: the firm conviction of offi- cial Washington.

Paris, July 21.—The smoke Screen with which the Germans attempted to conceal their retreat across the liarn which began on Friday, did not deceive the French. A terrific bombardment of shells and a rain of machine gun bul- lets was concentrated upon, the retir- ing Germans, who lost hall of their ef- fectives, according to a despatch from the Havas correspondent on the Marne front.

The attack occurred oniy a few (miles from the naval aviation station At Chatham, Three seaplanes attack- jed the raider with bombs, according to Rear Admiral Spencer S.

The mnet result of the raid was the sinking of barges valued in the ag- gregate at $90,000 and the serious damaging of a tug valued at $100,000, at the expenditure of three torpedoes which it is estimated cost the. Ger- man government a total of $45,000, and a quantity of ammunition.
