HUN DEAD PILE THREE DEEP BEFORE ADVANCE (Continued from page 1). have been made prisoner by the Ger mans. Private John B. Flock en of Olnev. 111., one of the first men te reach Torcy, said today: I never saw such wonderful sDirit. Not one of our fellows hesi tated in the face of the rain of ma chine gun fire, which it seemed Im possible to get through. Every Ger mna seemed to have a machine gun. They fought like wildcats, but the Americans were too much for them." The Importance of the operations of the Americans on the Marne sec tor may be realized when it Is re called that only the day before tha Americans entered the line the Ger mans advanced ten kilometers. The Americans are now holding the Paris road near Le Thiolet for a number or kilometers. Graphic stories of last night's fighting were related by wounded Americans today. They said that tt 'one point the Germans crouched be hind bouldeers and opened fire when the Americans were within ten feet of them-. One man who participated in an encounter of this kind said; Many Lark Sleep. "Some of us had not slept for four nights but we were not tired. Ws took a second lease of life and sprang at 'those Germans and smothered them. 1 never saw so many machine guns. Our men did not think of themselves. They only thought ot getting Fritz." - A corporal captured three Ger mans and was leading them away when twelve others surrendered to him and joined the procession. Madison Girman of Evansville, Ind.. was in Torcy. He said "W were -not supposed to so there, but the men were so enthusi astic they kept on. They would go to Berlin if their commanders would let them. The only way to stop them is to kill them. The Germans can not maek prisoners of us. They tried hard to get some of us, but we fooled them. We turned the machine guns on them and took them prisoner.' Floyd Gibbons of the Chicago Tri bune was watching the battle with a major and another officer early last night from a field. An enemy ma chine gun fpotted them and Mr. Gibbons was shot in the arm and in the left eye. The Qf fleers escaped but they had to wait three hours In the darkness to crawl'away. As a re suit of the wound. Mr. Gibbons' eye was Removed this morning. The Americans today were consol idating their positions and compara tive iqulet prevailed. - MANY HEROES IN FIGHT. WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN IN PICARDY. June 6. There were man instances of Individual brav ery and heroism in the successful attack of the American marines -in the Chateau ThierTy sector today. Many of the Americans who were wounded refused ot leave the fight. Sergeant J. L. Puswerth of Kansas City, was captured by the Germans unnrfir niffM while dated br a blow f mm rifle butt. While the German was dragging him away when he regained consciousness. The sergeant hit the German on the jaw and escaped. "I was not going to be the first American captured In this sector." Sergeant Duswerth said. "The Dutch man looked more scared than I so I biffed him. Now I got to get back and get me a Dutchman to make up for the lump on my head. The sergeant took part in the fight ing today. Prlnte Charles Ginsberg, a form er New York newsboy, captured a German in a shell hole, Ginsberg searched the German for hidden weapons and when he came on a photograph at the prisoner's two children the German wanted to fight The German ws allowed to keep the photographsr An American corporal found him self behind the German lines two days ago. By keeping himself hld- den and crawling a foot at a time, h reached the American line during the height of today's battle and in time to take part in the victory. THREE TOWN'S OBJECTIVES.

The sharpest fighting continues around the sector of Veuilly-la-Poterie Bus sierles and Bouresches. where the Americans and French have been at tacking shoulder to shoulder for some days, making almost uninter rupted progress. notwltbtandlng strong enemy resistance. , NEWS IS REASSCRIXfi. . WASHINGTON. June 7. News from the Aisne battle front continu ed, reassuring today to military ob servers here, it being increasingly ev ident that the German thrust had been brought to at least a temporary halt. Whether the failure to res his advantage vigorously means that theTenemy is exhausted for the mo ment and must have time to bring up fresh troops, guns and stores be fore renewing the drive, or that he is planning blows at other points alonf-, the front is not yet clear. Aside from the strategic signifi cance of the holt, the main topic of discussion today was the brilliant work the American marine detach ments, now known to have shared in the defense of the Marne line at Chateau Thierry and to the north west of that place. News of the full seope of the counter-operations In which several towns have been won back by the Americans and their French associates is awaited with keen interest. On the face of the map. it is thought here the German situation demands that he renew his etforts to widen ont to the west. The enmeys position looks precarious and no mat ter, how determined the allied su preme command may be to conserve man' power, it Is regarded as certain that any glaring German weakness will be quickly seized upon for a powerful counter-thrust. : BUMPER WHEAT CROP FORECAST June Report of Department of Agriculture Gives Big Es timate for Fall WASHINGTON.
