Die a I lee An a bailer position to resist
vlih definite success the great German
offensive according to an official re-
view today hv the Brillen military al-
acha here. 1'rench Brfllah and Ameri-
can reserves are pouring In daily to help
check Die Uertnsn drive ihe review de
clares.
"The opening of the third week of
fighting east of Amiens" says the re
view "finds the ppallloh of the liles
sieadlly Improving.
"A very slroog orfort. ty the enemy
to drive down the 3ouime in Amiens
during vhi ii he used divisions on a
tew nnies wss slopped ism
wet'tc with i-iimpIMe success; utiiy in
one placn nss the Urrman Hues advanred
and then only to depth of less Ihsu a
mile on a narrow front.
"North nf Ailixri the British advance
best off repented and vicious sltsrks
without trending.
".Near Mont Uidier. the Trenrh with-
drew a short distance in strong posi-
tions. Tha enemy Is nowncre" within
nine tnllea or Amiens he la still three
miles distant at lilt furtherest point of
advance from the main Amiens-Pari
rsllway the culling of which would
bring hlru no real victory. The best
proof of his dlstumrHure Is tlte use that
he is making of minor Incidents for
window aresslng purposes.
"A short time ago In the course of tha
steady advance or the British army hi
Palestine a small force was thrown
across the Jordsn to rut the itadjas rail-
way its work done it retired from the
waterless waste through which ihe rail-
way runs and Jointed the army. ThM re-
tirement as advertlaed by the Cer-
meña s a triumph ror tho Turki bo
are alleged to have thrown the British
fo-'ce bark over the Jordan.
"similarly the Herman are gloating
today over rae rapture of Perremsnde
and Polembray In lite .neighborhood of
i.hauny and the forest of Conrey. As a
m-'ter or fsct "uiete successes ere value
less such advance as they imply Is at
the et treme south of the baflle tone
some 3 or M mllee from Amiens; Its
tactical value is no greater man its
strategic yalue. Plerremande and Polm-
bray are only outposts of the real franch
poalilons lu ihst neighborhood and there
la no reason te believe fltat Ihey were
more that lightly held.
"poubtless the Germane will make
rnrther rrat efforts before they mV
(lowtedge tho u of their great aprlng
drive but H Is safe to say that each
day that passes flints the allies in a bel-
ter position to resist with definite suc-
cess. Each day their reserves which
are already considerable are being
aw 'Hen by fresh contingenta trout their
own armies ami that of the rolled
mates."

which however as Premier Clcntencesu

Armand this lime on Instructions from

"From this fresh contact mere resulted

"it therefore entirely corresponds with
the facts when Cnuot Csernin in hla
sEH'ech Ai.ni . laet declared that Pre

Ihe beginning or the western offensive
inquired or me whether I wss prepared
tor negotiations and on whst bails.
"The accusation of lying brought
agslnat Count Uaernlb by M. clomeuceau
cannot therefor be malnisined even in
the restricted sense made by the present
commlque of the French government.
"Nuihing Is known lo the Ausiro-Hun-garlan
government of entreaties for an
alleged asperate peer with which the
Auitro-Hungarlan government worried

and London. When M. Clemenceeu asks
IhB Austro-Hungarian minuter whether
he remembers that two months before the
Revértela affair that is about a year ago
an attempt of a like nature was made
by a personage of far higher rank Cuunt
ciemln does not hesitate to reply In ihe
affirmative. But for the sake of com
pleteneaa and enure correctness it should

remarked that Count cierntti for ble part

Clemenceeu ba believes It cannot be a
matter for reproaeal for a government
to make attempts lo bring about aa hon-
orable peace which would liberate all

MTbe dispute raised by M. clemen-

from ' the reel kernel of Count Ciarnin e

Ho definite conclusion or these negoti-
