Show High" Command I Orders Retreat I On the Marne II AMSTERDAM, July 22. "The with- jLm drawal of our troops to the northern bank of the Marne came as no sur-prise sur-prise to well informed circles because the supreme command had confiden-tially confiden-tially communicated its intention be-forehand," be-forehand," says the Cologne Gazette, and adds: H "The object which the forcing of the Marne had in view was attained. Therefore it did not appear dangerous to retreat locally in order to save un- necessary losses." |
