Berlin Admits Check at Paris as German Retreat Aids
A Munich report says Berlin acknowledges German retreat after attacking between Meaux and Montmirail due to Allied numerical superiority. British dispatches claim Thermonde near destroyed. Berlin garrison casualties reach 42,000. Paris reports French orders to prefects to draft 200,000 more troops. Belgian and Austrian fronts shift as Russians advance in Galicia. Britain, France, Spain, and China plan peace commissions with the United States.
