the small band of prisoners taken In the
French attacks around Montdidler.
Thev believe that big troop movemenia
have taken place. They think Gennans
are preparing another surprise with s
preliminary diversion. The enemy has al-
ways clung tenaciously to his positions
along the Ancre and though he failed to
react after the allied Diows on ine .l-3
and the Mame. he never long delayed his
counter attacks around Albert. Behind
his positions here he has concentrated
heavy stores ot ammunition ana man)
guns of large caliber. He has had two
months more to rebuild the roads and
railways' that cross the Somme battle
neia.
Whether he will return to his original
plans and try to drive through Amiens la
impossible to foretell but he is certainly
prepared for the attempt and the fre-
quent attacks around Villers-Bretonneux
show that the allies are ready also.
HOLD PARIS OBJECTIVE.
Most French observers consider that
Paris remains the enemy's chief objective
and that Ludendorff will attack south of
Montdidler. The allies' superiority in the
air. which has never been mor apparent
reduced the possibility of surprise but
the situation remains anxious and every
one. the soldiers included will welcome
an ending of the long lull.

sterdam correspondent writes as follows:
"According to news received from un
usually well Informed channels. Admiral
Yon Hintze. German ambassador at
Christlania. will soon be announced as

"It will mean a triumph for the worst
