AMERICANS THROW
OFF ENEMY ATTACK
Attempted Assault of Line
on Moselle Quickly
Broken
SUDDEN BARRAGE
MAKES CLEAN SWEEP
Survey of Occupied Region
Show Germans Expected
to Stay.
With the American Army in Lorraine.?German
infantry attempted
to attack the American lines west of
the Moselle Tuesday evening, but
the enemy troops were driven back
by the fire of the American artillery.
When observers reported that a
light line of German infantrymen
was approaching* the American big
guns threw a terrific barrage into
that area. There were no further
movements by the enemy.
Observers reported this morning
that there were no living Germans
in the region where they were sighted
last night. Quite a number of
dead, however, were seen.
Prisoners Want Peace.
German and Autsrian prisoners
taken in the recent advance by the
Americans in this section displayed
great interest when they learned of
the Austrian peace suggestion when
the news reached the camps where
they were taken after their capture.
They made no effort to conceal their
discouragement when assured hv the
American soldiers that peace is a
long; way off unless Germany is willing;
to admit she is beaten.
Stories told by the prsioners nearly
all indicate a lack of harmony
between the Austrians and Gcunans,
and reflect the lowered morale of
the central powers. The prisoners
in conversation show that they realize
the hopelessness of success, and
their belief that they are fighting
Jfor some object which to them is apparently
not clear. Individually the
men are in good condition. They
are well clothed, well fed and
healthy. ; ;
Were There to Stay,
j The Germans apparently never ex
pCCted to be ousted from the St. Mihiel
salient. They had done much
work in building shelters and beer
gardens anil about the Soulevele
farm the country had been made
look like a prosperous German
neighborhood, with resorts where
townspeople might spend their holidays.
?
Little club houses were built and
equipped not wholly in keeping with
front lino operations. The dugouts
:and shelters of the officers were fittc>l
almost luxuriously, some of the
larger ones being fitted with bath
tubs and running water and lig'nte 1
by electricity. Outside of many of
them were little summer houses
where the occupants were accustomed
to sit and drink beer. When the
Americans advanced they captured
a German mess sergeant who had
been instructed to pack up and
leave, but who had underestimated
the speed of the American progress.
He was carrying a quantity of beer
and cheese, and when he saw the
Americans approaching he did not
run, but busied himself like a bartender
and received them standing
behind a table on which the beer and
cheese were ready for consumption.
