Paris.-The following official COM
munication was issued in Petrograd:
The combats upon the routes lead
ing to Petrokoff and Radon have as
sumed the character of a great battle,
6 which the front extends over 66
miles, from Rawa TO Nowemiasto and
Bialobrzesi as far as the mouth of the
river iljsnka. The evening of Oct. "a
north OF Rawa we attacked the Ger
mans at the point of the basonet. in
flicting upon them considerable losses.
In the village of Morchildio alone we
buried over 700 Germans. In bayonet
combat near the village of Mazammer-
Jeff, we captured two batteries of ma
chine guns.
We have progressed along the
route from Nova TO Alexandria
where We captured numerous prison
ers and cannon. The stubborn resist
ance of the Austrians in Galicia is
weakening, and our troops are making
vigorous progress in the region south
Of Sambor and Staromiasto, where We
took eleven cannon and many cais
sons The entire valley OF the river
Spyrne is covered with bodies of the
enemy, estimated to aggregate at least
b,0oo.

mans continues They are evacuatins

FISH TRADE OF

IS UNHINDERED

st. Johns. n. F., Nov. 9.-The unimped-

Atlantic has relieved the fears expressed
by fish merchants at the outbreak of the
European war that 1t would be impossi-
BILE to market a large part of the sea-
sons catch of cod in Newfoundland wa
tiers. Large cargoes of dry Goldfish are
now being loaded for Mediterranean and
South American ports, The traders look
for unusually good business in Brazil be-
cause of the small supply otherwise
available for that market. The total
catch for the year around the Newfound-
land coast is estimated at about $50, 900
quintais. which is 100000 quintals short
of an average catch. In view OF this
shortage and the improved outlook for
markets, the traders are making a Wig
orous effort to maintain minimum price
for dry Goldfish considerably higher than
appeared possible three months ago.

BREAKS INTO HOUSE
OF PROF. LIBBY

The residence of Prof Herbert c.
Libby at IS Burleigh street was brok-
en- into shortly after 0 o'clock Satur-
day evening and Prof. Libby's watch
and chain stolen.
Prof. and Mrs. Libby had retired
shortly before 8 o'clock and at about 0
there came a ring at the door bell. A
second ring followed it, but vas not
answered.
Then there was heard snap at the
rear of the house which later proved
to be some one forcing the catch Ct
one of the kitchen windows. The VIM
dow was slowly and cautiously raised
and short time aftarward whispers
were heard. Prof. Libby looked over
the banisters and by the light OF a
match which the two men below had
struck, he saw them looking at his
watch which they had taken from
his vest in the rom below. Prof. Lib
by believes that he recognized the two
men, who at once beat a hasty retreat
when he called to them from the upper
hall. The police were called and were
on the scene in a very short time. The
pair was chased as far US Winter
street near the Coburn Classical In
stitute building. The officers arc at
work on the case.

history was even more tragic. Belgium
