ALLIES CONTINUE
TO PRESS FORWARD
OVER HALF OF AISNE-MARNF
SALIENT CLEARED.
Washington Officials Highly Elated
With the Fine Showing by I,
American Troops.
Washington, July 29.?French
and American troops were still pressing
forward vigorously today the
CamPaiKn Which has Iin tn thla tlrno
succeeded in enjecting the enemy:
from more than half of the Aisne-!i
Marne salient. Belated announce- j
ment from Berlin that further with-!
drawal hod been in progress since!
last Friday night left it greatly in j
doubt as to where the German high
command plans to make a stand.;
The majority opinion among offi-j
cers here, however, was that a strong.
line could not be set up short of the!
Vesle river, and that even there the i
Franco - British positions about!
Rheims would keep the German left |
flank in constant danger. There was 1
a strong feeling that the eventual:
line resulting from Gen. Foch's bold :
counter blows would be along theI
heights of the Aisne.
Evacuation Not Completed.
As the line stood, according to the 1
last available reports tonight, it appeared
certain that the evacuation
announced bv the enemv had not
been completed. The. salient has been i
reduced until it nu longer has any- j
thing of the old wedge shape. The!
apex lias been driven in so that an!
irregular line roughly paralleling
the old Soissons-Kheims base has.
been created, resting upon the two:
Bides of the old salient, reaching!
southward from Soissons and Khcims [
respectfully. It was to retain these i
flank lines in order to get his |
armies out of the depths of the pock-1
et at the Maine that the enemy employes
reserves laviBhly.
Bitter Figjhting.
The most bitter fighting recently
reported is along the center of tho
irregular line which now forms the
front between the flank positions.
Franco-American forces were fighting
fiercely with enemy roar guards
here at last accounts, and a crack di
vision 01 jfrussian guarus naa oeen >
hurled against the American positions
in a counter attack to check:
their progress.
This suggested to observers here
that Gen. Foch was seeking to force
a wedge into the very center of the
enemy's retreating lines, planning
to tdke the strong flank positions
in the rear and force an even more
precipitate withdrawal. There were I
signs that a definite minor pocket'
was being created by this thrust, i
which promised to crumple up the!
German position west of Fere-En-!
Tardenois. At the same time ham-j
mer blows against enemy positions,
south of Soissons indicated the be-:
ginning of a pincer movement there
as well.
Officials are elated at the fine'
showing which is being made by j
American troops. The report that
the Prussian guard division had met:
11 stonewall defense that cave not i
an inch to the assault of these picked '
troops added to that feeling.
Secretary Baker however, indicated
that the War Department has no
false conception of the importance
of present victories, encouraging as!
they are. It is iully realised that the j
war is just beginning, so far as the
United States is concerned, and that
no effort must be spared to speed1
up war preparations.
Substantial bains.
"The progress of the Allied armies 1
ill the Soissons-likeims salient is
continuing," Secretary Baker said
today. "Substantial gains wore made
on both Saturday and Sunday.
"It is fortunate our people-are,, accepting
this success with a true measure
of its significance. It is, of course
a cause for congratulation and rejoicing,
but would by no means justify
any relaxation of our effort. It
means that we must redouble our
efforts."
In support of this view there are
indications that Mr. Baker will discuss
with chairmen of the House
and Senate committees probably this
week his enlarged army project, up-;,
on which he has been laboring for J ]
some weeks. Mr. Baker said today 11
that his plans were not quite com
pleted.
The plans include primarily ex-i
tension of the age limit for draft
liability. Additional appropriations
and an army mobilization on an enlarged
scale are known to be included.
Already six new divisions have,
been ordered formed in the United
States and others will Le created at
an early date to supplement the flow
of replacement men through the replacement
division machinery. Just
how largo an army it is proposed to
build up on this side of the ocean is
not known.
Crowder Well Informed.
A careful review of the man power

FIRST WHITE BOY.
Youth Who Accompanied Columbus'
Expedition in 1842.
Many phases of the life of .Columbus
offer mysteries that the historians
have never been able to clear
away, and one student of the life of
the great explorer has come across
an incidental myste^* that has an
appealing interest. It relates to a
boy who accompanied the expedition
of 1492?the only boy among its
members, and consequently the first
white boy to set foot in America.
The contemporary accounts of the
first expedition of Columbus mention
the boy in question only once
and that briefly. They indicate that
he was the only boy in 4 he expedition
and they place on his young
shoulders the blame for the great
catastrophe that befell "when the
Santa Maria was wrecked on the
coast of Hayti. To be sure the story
of the wreck shows that the boy was
less to blame than his elders, but it
was easy enough to make him the
scapegoat. It was the night before
Christmas, 149 2, ten weeks after tho
discovery of the land, and Columbus
was pushing his search for gold
among, the West Indies. The flag
ship, the Santa Maria, wis skirting
the coast of Hayti, and late at night,
as the wind was light and the ship
barely moving, Columbus went to
his cabin for rest. He passed the
helm over to the captain. He, too,
soon felt the need of sleep and went
below. His successor at the tiller was
a sailor and he shortly followed the
example of the admiral and the master.
Before he went he awakened
tl.e lad in question and told him to
mind the helm.
The boy did not go tp sleep. He
was doubtless a live lad ^nd he felt
the importance of being trusted to
steer ship. But he was in strange
waters and the currents were treacherous
near that coast, says an exchange.
The ship struck a reef. The
admiral and crew rushed on deck in
terror. Of course they blamed the
boy. That was the way of the world
before 1492 and the fashion has never
changed.
That was the end of the Santa
Maria. Tho crew reached the shore
in safety and made a fort from the
timbers of the wreck. In that fort,
which they called La Navidad in
honor of the day, about forty of the
crew remained while their companions
went homo to Spain on the
Pinta and the Nina. One historian
mentions a tradition that the boy

only a tradition. The fate of the
forty is a mystery, for when the second
expedition of Columbus reached
that island a year later there were
only a few charred timbers and bone
to be found. His name has not even
come down to us, but the brief
glimpse that we have of him is a
inscinating one. There is something
to stimulate the imagination in that
fleeting picture of the boy who stuck
to his post while his superiors sl??pt.

basis of the recommendation4 on
draft age changes Mr. Baker will
make. Gen. Crowder is credited with
believing that all men between eighteen
and forty-five years should be
brought within the draft, but it uproars
probable that the formal plans
[>f the War Department will not go
iiuite to that lirn^t in either direction.
The age limits most generally
3et by those endeavoring to determine
in advance Mr. Boker's attitude
are nineteen to thirty-six, inclusive.
Lowering the d aft age is expected

How Over Spoils of War.
Washington, July 29?While no
otficial notice of the breach of relations
between Turkey and Germany
jor rather the Central Powers?for
i without doubt Austria is involved
|with Germany in the dispute with
Ottoman Government ? has reachled
Washington. Officials expressed
'little surprise tonight at tlie Copenhagen
dispatch received from London
saying that Germany and Turkey
had severed relations. In offici. 1 circles
here for some time naot it
been realized that in her efforts to
serve both Turkey and Bulgaria in
tko division of spoils resulting from
the enforced peace treaty with Rumania,
Germany had incurred the ill
will of both her Allies.
Bone of Contention.
After the conclusion of the peace
treaty with Rumania at Jassy, both
Turkey and Bulgaria laid claim to
much of the territory which Rumania
had been forced to cede to her
enemies. Included in these claims
j was the title to the railway running
I from Adrianople to Deadeagatch, and
This became the source of the greatost

'nations. Germany for some time endeavored
to induce the two countries
to settle this dispute amicably by
: suggesting that the nation which
failed to obtain the railway should
: receive other compensation.
impartiality. Says Turk.
Belief in Turkey that favoritism
was being shown Bulgaria by Ger'
many in the negotiations, according
: to recent dispatches, received here,
raused a rapid growth of the antiGerman
feeling in Constantinople. A
'shortage of food, weariness of the
w-ur and dissatisfaction with the
J Young Turk party because of its
submission in Constantinople in food
riots and munitions uprising which
have been sternly suppressed by the
military authorities.
Weary of War.
That Turkey has become more and
more weary of the war was indicated
in me failure of the latest Turkish
loan in June. According to Swiss dispatches,
only 12,000,000 pounds
were obtained out of 3 2,000,000
pounds sought.
However, there was considerable
doubt in the minds of officials here
whether severance of relations even
if actually brought about would be
permanent. It is believed that Germany,
calling upon her allies, Bulgaria
and Austria, to assist her will
undertake to deal sternly with Turkey,
and through the thousands of
German agents scattered through the
country will seek to displace the
Young Turk party and install some
faction which can be depended upon
to obey the mandates of the Central
Powers.
Officered by Huns.
It was also pointed out that the
Turkish army is officered almost entirely
by Germans, and that while
the Turkish diplomatic authorities
might sever relations with Germany,
the army would remain thoroughly
German. Kcliable reports have
been received that the Constant!
uuiue put ice system is permeated
thoroughly with German influence,
making possible the continuation of
the spread of German propaganda
among the Turkish people.

KAI8KH HAD STAGED Tltll'MPH. I
From Vantage Point (ieraiiin Emperor
Watched Our Men ISreak
German Onrush.
Edwards L. Jones, speci I corros- .
pondent of The New York Times,
writes vividly of the scenes in and
around Chateau-Thiery after the ,
American and French had captured '
the town. He says in the New York
Times, under date of July 23 that the
French people who stayed in Chateau-Thierry
during its coven weeks'
occupation by the Germans say that
on June 3 and 4 the Kaiser was j
there. i
TtlOHO -> -
* ?ivwv j/cuj/ic ftiiiu iiiiti me uer- i
jman officers later told them the >
Kaiser came to Chateau-Thierry on ?
the morning of June 3 to watch his 1
| troops from Hill 204 while they mar- t
[ched down the Paris Metz road to
ward the French capital. In the pre- j
loaeding two days the Huns had taken J
j Chateau-Thierry and moved ahead *i
' thirty kilmoters, and the German Em l
| peror had come to stand at what he
; thought was a milestone on the road *
and watch his men go onward to t
Paris.
The Kaiser never saw his show.-i
i For the day before he reached Chat- t
eau-Thierry the 2d American Divis- t
ion had taken a position on the Paris i
Metz near Tholet and in front of 1
Polleau Woods, and from the moment
the 5th and 6th Marines and
the !)th and 23rd Infantry got there
the Germans came no further. ,
The desperate attacks of the Germans
to hurl back the Americans or
jjune 3 and 4, perhaps, are now to be
(explained by the fact that their ruler
waited for them to co on to Paris.
It was on July 4, that tho American ]
artillery got into action with the
F;ench guns and spoiled the
Kaiser's triumph. .
Yesterday 1 went over the terri- <
tory captured by our troops north- <
west and north of Chateau-Thierry
in their victorious advances. I saw
places that had been villages?Belleau,
Torcy, Boulresches, and so on.
The heavy hand of war has wiped away
all sembalance of habitable
places and left desolate and dusty
ruins of stone and mortar. The village
that sheltered 500 to 1,000
souls is now but piles of debris. 1
saw the bodies of Americans who
died to save France and civilization
from those Germans.
Going north from the wreckage of
Lucy le Bocage, I could not resist
the impulse to go through the Bois
de Belleau where I had been during
the fighting a month ago, which s
prevented much inspection. Across j
the field with the shell holes so
thick that one could step from one1'
to another, I reached the rocky edge v
of the woods. Hero, in machine gun
positions, twenty Germans had been ;
slaughtered. Here and thore was
stuck up a rifle and bayonet lock,
making a cross marking the grave
of some marines.
In the middle of the field lay the
carcass of a cow, perhaps poacefully
grazing when the war had made a t
No Man's Land of her pasture. Along t
the edge of the woods lay bodies of t
horros caught by the German ma- ^
chine guns.
It was uncanny to go through 1
those woods which now have a place t
in American history. Every other t
tree was cut off by shell fire. Not a h
square foot of ground but bore! r
marks of fighting. German machine i
! guns in cleverly concealed nests i
j stood with the bodies of boches lying t
across them just where they fell a'c
'month ago. i
I Here were the remains of ci kitrli
jen which had rorved its last meal; L
'here the ruined dugout through the j
i wrecked door of which one could see i
five German bodies lying where one e
of our 75 shells had get them while t
sleeping. Here lay a box of unused t
hand grenades; here a pile of am- ?
munition which had never killed
!marines; there lay a cache of decay- 1
i ing food?here, there and every- a
I where, carnage in profusion, where l
the Germans had tried in vain to r
[halt the Americans. t
| Near the northern edge of the wood s
was a large rock and scattered about i
it lay the remains of a German air- 1
plane, which had hit it squarely after ?
I some allied aviator had sent a bullet t
| through its pilot. Parts of the sir- r
plar.o had been scattered fifty feet in f
:eveiy direction. Here la> the body I
of ait American, which had not been s
found in time to bury. We spread b
a shelter half over it, and, sticking s
his bayonet in the ground, hung his
steel hat on it, so lie would be found ?
and given a decent grave \
Leaving the northern end of the i
woods, we came on a trench, which I
the Germans had tried to hold. The t
Geii'ian dead there were so thiek \
that they lay one uj on another in i
ghastly array. (

standing. Americans were busy

their battle line ruuning across
tie Soissons-ltheinis salient with adit
ional fresh reserves and have
tubbornly disputed further passage
orthward to the Entente Allied

le anchor points resting immeiately
on Soissons and Rheims.
South of Soissons more wedges

The battle line shifted buck and

imes, but the Americans proved to
ye the musters of the picked enemy

were inflicted on the Germans.
The fighting in the Fcre-En-Tardeois
