London-All England is jubilant
over the naval victory in the North
Sea, when the British cruiser I'm

destroyers, attacked and sank four
German destroyers. The news of
the Undaunted's victory was received
throughout all Of Great Britain with
great rejoicing, especially at Harwich,

only a few hours before she met and
defeated the German warcraft.

important development anywhere else
in France.
The Kaiser is still rushing troops
forward to try to break through the
line defending Dunkirk, and the Allies
are likely to have their hands full di-
rectly, according to the following wire
from the Flushing correspondent of
the London Weekly Dispatch: "The
Germans have levied a fine on Ostend
Of $1,000,000. At an early hour great
forces of Germans began to pass
through Ostend. The artillery com
prised about 400 guns, with 10000 in
fantry and force of cavalry. More
guns arrived at noon. There are in
dications that strong movement is
to be directed against Dunkirk."
The semi-official Cologne Gazette"
says that the Germans are investing
the strong fortress of Belfort, which
forms the most southerly point of the
French eastern fortified line. 1t says
also that already heavy siege mortars
have been mounted and that the Ger
mans are making steady but necessari-
ly very slow progress.
Russians and Germans and Aus
trians are still at grips along a 400
mile line reaching from near the
Baltic to the Carpathian Mountains,
with the heaviest fighting between
Warsaw and the Galician border, ac-
cording to cables from Petrograd, Ber-
lin and Vienna.
Cholera is assuming alarming pro-
portions in Galicia and Hungary and
is increasing very rapidly, 10000 new
cases being reported at Kashau, most
ly among soldiers. Half of the cases
are reported to be fatal after a few
hours. The authorities are powerless
to combat the epidemic and are now
adopting sanitary cordons. The Rus
SLAMS gave up the invasion of Hun
gary so as not to expose their troops to
contagion.
The Vienna ''Zeit" blames the Aus
trian Government for neglect of the
elementary sanitary precautions in
combating the cholera which is threat
ening greater mortality than the war,
besides Gripping the army. The news
paper praises the system now adopt
ed of concentrating cholera patients
in Hungary, where they can be most
completely isolated.

British Cruiser Hawke
Sunk by Germans

London.-The British cruiser Hawke
has been sunk in the North Sea by a
German submarine. Out of a crew
of 400 so were saved. News of the
disaster is officially confirmed.
The Hawke was scouting in the
North Sea at the time. She was
steaming along when she was struck
almost amidships by the torpedo and
almost torn to pieces.
The Admiralty gave this announce
ment:
His majesty's ship Theseus, Capt.
Hugh Edwards, was attacked by a
submarine in the northern waters of
the North Sea but was missed. His
majesty's ship Hawke, Capt. M. P.
Williams, was attacked about the
same time and sunk.
The following officers, with forty.
nine men of the crew, have been
landed at Aberdeen from a trawler.
Boatswain Sydney Austin, Gunner
James Dennis and Acting Gunner
Harry Evitt. The remaining officers
and men are missing.
The Hawke was 1850 tons displace
ment, $50 feet long, go feet beam, and
drew % feet of water. She was
sister ship Of the Edgar, Endymion,
Grafton, Theseus and Gibraltar, and
was launched in 1891.
Her armament consisted of two 9.2-
inch guns, ten 6-inch guns, twelve six.
pounds, five three-pounders, two ma
chine guns and two torpedo tubes. Her
complement was 544 men.
The Hawke was commanded by
Capt. P. E. T. Williams. Among her
officers were Commander Bernard A.
Pratt-Barlow and Lieut.. Commander
Robert R.. Rosoman.

Russians VictOrs in
Frontier Fighting;
100000 Engaged
Germans Fail at Eighteen Different
Points in Desperate Attempts to
Cross the Vlstula-ArtiIlery
Abandoned in swamps.

Petrograd.-With more than 4,00O,.
900 engaged, the great battles now
being waged by the Austro-German
armies and those of Russia along the
Vistula and San Rivers, in East Prus-
sia, and in Galicia are expected to
be of even greater consequence than
the struggle now in progress on
French soil.
Dispatches from Warsaw indicate
big Russian victories, but no decisive
engagement has as yet been fought.
The Germans have been foiled in their
attempts to cross the Vistula at
eighteen different points and have
suffered severe losses.
Information received from the scene
of the fighting, which is likely to
last month and even through the
winter, shows that the German armies
in Poland and Galicia number at
least 100000, while the Austrian
armies consist of at least 5OO,OO
more. The Russians have force
of 100000 facing them. This does
not include the 100000 men General
Rennenkampf has in East Prussia
nor the large German army there
holding Koenigsberg.
From Warsaw comes the informa-
tion that no new attacks are expect
ed, because the Germans who ad-
vanced there have been decisively
beaten and that in their retreat they
suffered greatly in loss Of men and
guns and munitions. The roads add
ed to their rout. In some places the
roads were bogs and horses sank to
their quarters. Thousands of animals
and big guns had to be abandoned.
The Russian losses during their at.
tacks on Przemysl are estimated at
10000 dead and wounded.

BEL British warships are ON
cially reported to have given e1ec-
tive aid to the Belgian army against
the Germans between Nieuport and
Dixmude. The German cavalry
fruitlessly cannonaded the Belgian
front from Nieuport to Bladsloo.
East of Dixmude the Belgian army
not only drove back the German at
tack, but pushed ahead as far as
Roulers.
FRANCE-The official communique
issued reports the advance made by
the Allies along several points OF
the battle line 1t reports the slight
progress between Arras and Roye,
and also ground gained in the re-
gion of St. Mihiel, on the right
bank of the Meuse. The COM
munique reports engagements tax
ing place on the front from lie
Basse to Ablain-St. Nazaire, and
ten days engagement to the north
and south of Arras. In the region
of Chaulnes the French repulsed
German attacks and won some
ground.
RUSSIA vanguard of Germans, &C
cording to reports from Rome, was
lured to the east bank of the Wis
tula and cut to pieces by the Rus
slams. The Russians are rushing
100000 troops to prevent the Ger
man dash toward Warsaw. A des-
patch from Rome says that Prem
ysl still holds out and that the Aus
trians are endeavorihg to advance
their line by sapping.
TURKEY Turkish participation in
the war now appears imminent. The
Russian Ambassador has transferred
the archives of the embassy from
Constantinople to Odessa and Tur-
kish feet, cleared for action, is cruis
ing IN the Black Sea. A trainload Of
150 carloads of artillery, ammunition
and war material on their way from
Germany to Turkey has been seized
by the Rumanian Government. The
German envoy at Bucharest made
protest, which was unheeded.
GERMANY.-lt is announced IN Ber-
lin that the attacks of the French to,
the west and northwest of Lille were
rcpulsed with severe losses to the
French. The fighting southwest of
Warsaw may be regarded, it is an
nounced, as the commencement of
decisive engagement. The Germans
are advancing under miserable con-
ditions, the roads being almost i'm
passable for guns and transports on
account of the heavy rains.
HOLLAND.-The feeling among the
Dutch people is that Holland will be
the next to enter into the war. It is
believed that the Kaiser will drag
Holland into the war owing to the
refusal of the Dutch to permit the
Germans to break the neutrality of
the country through the use of the
River Scheldt.
