Paris, Dec. 14.-Terriflc counter-at-
tacks are being made by the Germans
in West Flanders to check the efforts
of the British and French to push
forward on the Roulers road from
Ypres. During the past 4S hours there
has been furious hand-to-hand fighting,
in which some of the most famous
English troops on the continent fig
ured. Among them were the Grena-
dier guards and the Coldstream
guards, whose valor is traditional in
the annals of British military history.
The contest for trenches east of
Ypres' resulted in heavy losses on
both sides and between the lines are
hundreds of corpses which lie where
they fell on Thursday. At various
points, all along the line in the north
ern sphere, heavy night and day bonn
bardments are under way. The can
nonade around Armentieres and Arras
is incessant and all the towns and
villages for miles around are deserted
ruins battered by shells.
Along the center the battle contin-
ues to show all the characteristics of
a siege, with both sides living in dug
outs behind their trenches while the
opposing artilleries struggle for mas
terry.
On the heights of the Meuse, in the
Woevre district and in the Vosges ac-
tivity is increasing, particularly on
the part of the artillery, which is kept
in action against the enemy's trenches
most of the time.
The battle of the Aisne, which sub
sequently developed into the mighty
conflict which is raging over terri
tory of three nations, began just 13
weeks ago. In that time the lines of
the allies and the Germans have both
been shifted. but there has not been
a break at any point.

FIVE SEPARATE
BATTLES RAGING
Greatest Conflict of the European
War Now in Progress in
Poland.
GERMAN ADVANCE CHECKED
Russians Pushing Fresh Troops to
Front = Teutons Make Furious
Night Attacks-Weather Adds
to Soldiers Hardshlps.

Petrograd, Dec. 1.-THE Germans
are Withdrawing before partial sue,
cesses of the Russians along the battle
front to the north of Warsaw. The
German front has been pierced in at
least two points between Ciechanow
and Przasnysz, which has resulted in
severing communication between the
German columns.
BY FRANCIS LAVELLE MURRAY.
International News Service Correspondent.
Petrograd, Dec. 14.-Five separate
battles are raging in Poland and Ga
licia where Field Marshal Won Hinden-
burg, who is now in supreme COM
mand of all the German and Austrian
armies. is struggling desperately
against the Russians counter-assaults
to maintain the offensive. Enormous
losses are marking the German drive
toward Warsaw, but the German field
marshal holds his present plan of cam
paign to be of such vital Importance
that all regard for the cost in human
life has been lost in the gigantic
struggle which is now under way.
FIanking Operations Cease.
For the time being fanking opera
tions have ceased and over the great
er part of the long battle front 1t is
now a fight for strategic railways over
which troops and supplies can be
moved.
More men! More meni" is the cry
which the German commander In chief
is constantly sounding in the ears OF
the Berlin government.
The five zones of action are located
on the line which now extends in the
form of vast semi-circle. as follows:
Southeast Of Mlawa; in the Vistula
valley north of Lowicz; along the
Bzura valley; southwest of Piotrokow
and around Cracow, in Galicia, to
which point the Germans are con-
stantly sending such re-enforcements
as they can spare from the campaign
in east Prussia and northern Poland.
The German efforts In western Po-
land to roll back the Russians and
relieve the ever-growing pressure at
Cracow, have been checked, the Rus
sian general staff announces, and the
Russians are pushing forward fresh
troops to follow up their advantage.
Stormy weather, which has brought
added hardships to the soldiers, has
turned the roads into lanes of deep
mud, making it almost impossible to
move troops and artillery with any de-
gree of speed except in regions where
the railway lines may be utilized.
That is why the German army which
advanced southwark from Mlawa
chose the route of the Mlawa-Nowy-
Dwor railway. II
Make Night Attacks.
degree of night fighting hitherto
unknown in the Russo Austro-G German
field of operations is developing along
the line running south from the Wis
tula through Lowicz, Lodz and west
of Piotrokow. There the Russians
had the advantage of getting their
heavy artillery to the front before the
Germans could bring up their big guns
and the Germans tried to offset this
advantage by surprise attacks at
night, which are still in progress.

ITALY AND TURKEY
STERN DEMAND is SENT TURKEY
FOR LIBERATION OF BRIT
ISH CONSUL.
Germany Is Said to Have Advised Con-
stantinopIe To Will
of Rome.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Rome.-Italy has reiterated her urg
ent demand for public satisfaction
from the Sublime Porte for the forci
bic removal of g. A. Richardson, Brit
ish Consul at Hodeida, from the Ital
ian consulate, where he had taken ref.
uge, and for his immediate liberation.
1t is understood that Germany has
advised the Constantinople govern,
ment to satisfy Italy's demand and
thus avoid complication.
Baron Sonnino, Italian Minister OF
Foreign Affairs, sent the demand.
Richardson, it is alleged, recently was
forcibly removed by Turks from the
refuge, and was placed aboard a boat
bound for an unknown destination.
Baron Sonnino, in answering an in
terpellation in the Chamber of Depu-
ties regarding the Holedia incident,
gave the story of Consul Richardson's
arrest, which already had been made
public.
He added that Signor Cecchi, the
Italian Consul at Hodelida, who came
to the defense of his colleague, was
obliged to remain in his own house,
which was watched for several days,
until the arrival of the Italian coast
guardship Giuliana, and the Italian ar
mored cruiser Marco Polo, which had
been ordered to Hodeida
The Turkish government in answer
ing a request for reparation, the Min
lister said, was awaiting information
and would adopt the necessary meas
ures.
Baron Sonnino concluded by saying
he did not believe the Ottoman gov
ernment wished to share the respon-
sibility of such a patent violation of
consular rights.

Are Not to Remain Idle

Bids will be opened on Decem-
ber IS for the services of $50
able-bodied convicts in the Ken
lucky reformatory. The term of the
contract as fixed in the bid is for one
year with a renewal of the contract
at the terms set out in the one-year
contract for an additional year. The
board had come to the conclusion,
upon the advice OF Assistant Atty.
Gen. Logan, that the contract would
be void until there was a term fixed
in it. The commission therefore fixed
the minimum term o. one year.
Chairman O'Sullivsn said the term
was made one year So that if the gen
eral assembly decides to make a
change in the manner of employing
prisoners the state will not be tied up
with a four-year contract, containing
an option for another similar period.

DlsosEY CANAL ZONE LAWS

Panama.-Colonel George w. Goe-
thals, governor of the Canal Zone, was
impelled to suggest to the govern
ment at Washington that two swift
American torpedo boat destroyers be
stationed at the Panama Canal, one at
each end, by the recent activity of bel
ligerent warships and GOLFERS in the
vicinity of the isthmian waterway.
The action of the Australian collier
Mallina, which left Balboa without
clearance papers, and the fact this and
other colliers have shown a DISPOSE
tion to disregard the Canal Zone ship
ping laws actuated Colonel Goethals
to take decisive measure to preserve
in every way the neutrality of the
canal.
