French Triumph At Marne In Major World War I Battle
Paris dispatches report the Battle of the Marne turning in favor of the French as British and French forces cross the Marne. German forces retreat 37 to 47 miles with 1,500 prisoners and large weapon losses. Three German armies unite against the French center but are repelled, the defending line holding across Vitry le Francois toward Sezanne. The fighting centers on plateaus north of Sezanne and Vitry le François with Saxon and Württemberg units involved. The German retreat grows chaotically demoralized despite initial bold efforts.
