\ { ii \ = pi no N.Y. CAPTAN “JUST RUINED” EIGHT GERMANS WITH BOMBS ~INFURIOUS ST. JOVIN FIGHT Hail of Gieigine- 1 From Foe Meets Americans in New Attack. By Lincoln Eyre. Oopyright, 1918, by The Press Publishing (The New’ York Evening World Ad). WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY, Oct. 1sT 18.—Particularly des- perate and bloody was the fighting; in and about the Village of St. Juvin. The Germans had reinforced their formidable machine gun barricades with barrages of band grenades and their specially trained bands of bombers were brigaded with machine gun crews, and whenever the quick- firers thomselves were silenced by the artillery or other means the Boehes fought on with bombs. But our boys, pursuing their usual topping up tactics, devoted their at- tention to putting the machine guns clustered about the village out of bus- iness. No sooner had the last of these ceased firing with its crew bayonetted into submission than the bomb huri- ¢rs crept forth from their lairs, just }r enough to fling hundreds of gre- nades among the panting Americans, “It was a regular cloudburst of po- tato mashers” as one doughboy from Harlem observed. EVERY CELLAR BECAME A BAT- TLE GROUND. One battalion engaged fell back a couple of bundred yards, reformed, and sent small squads forward to tackle this fresb form of resistance. Every cellar became a small battle- field in which the desperate Boches, fighting as though they never heard of such a thing as ermistice negotl- ations, plugged away at their as- sailants from behind their wire en- tanglements, A company commanded by Capt. Michaei Kelly of New York, who is better known as “Dynainite Mike,” cleaned out a dozen cellars in two hours, leaving their trail through the village filled with Gorman dead. The foe bad planted crude mines, made of a score of grenades linked to a sin- gle fuse, at ¢he entranca of some In ‘one caso Capt. Thomas T. Reilly, another New Yorker, and a couple of his men dug up one of these infernal machines and threw It down a flight of steps leading into the cellar, where eight grenadiers were lurking. The explosion that ensued tore the house to tatters and wounded one of the | war a Colonel doesn't carry a sword— “4 arg Americans, but Boches, ‘The ever present difficulty of main- taining communication with the ad- vancing front line is perhaps the chief obstacle to the rapid progress through the Kriemhild positions on the Grand Pre-St. Juvin front. The regimental commanders, usually supposed to be a considerable distance behind the assault columns, are now obliged to stay with the forward waves if they want personally to direct the opera tons of their command. Sergt. J. Radcliffe, a former Philadelphia newspaper man, now at- tached’ to regimental headquarters, told how his Colonel actually got ahead of the advance line in his agerness to keep in touch with his boys. ONE COLONEL UTRAN HIS WHOLE REGIMENT, “Phe old man went over the tog with the doughboys, meaning to have a mobile combat post just in the rear of the first wave,” the Sergeant said, ‘A few of us trailéd along with him, carrying regimental orders and other documents and helping the Signal Corps men rig up telephones, In this “Just ruined” "eight , he carries a telephone instrument in- stead. “We struck a high plateau that was al! eaten up with German shells, Per- sonally I would rather have tunnelled under it with a spoon that to have hiked across it, but the old man kept right ahead.
