ALLIED TROOPS CONFIDENT

London, Nov 6.-The latest reports
from the western battle front reach
ing London from Dutch sources in
dicate that the GermaGs have retired
from the User, but the fighting is
said still to be proceeding within the
triangle of Ypres, IL xmude and
Roulers.
The latest official con nunications
give evidence that the >,erman as
saults are becoming less Intense and
there are some indications of the re-
sumption of the offensive on the part
of the allies, with the Bel ians re
ported as occupying both hanks of
the User and forcing the Germans in
that neighborhiod to retire en- Bru-
ges.
In spite of these reports, however
there is no disposition among -
allies to be over confident So
hlnt of this feeling is found in the
revived interest in London in the
Russian military campaign. Many
military critics are voicing the hope
that the advance on the eastern Ger
man frontier will become such a
edf to recall several seasoned corps
from the western front to meet the
danger.
1t is not believed here that Tur-
al nf
bat will greatly effect the Russian
campaign against the Teutonic allies.
Russia has three army corps in the
Russian Caucasus, none OF which has
been drawn for service elsewhere in
the war.
Russia is reported successfully to
have invaded Armenia with four army
corps and the Turkish forces in that
district today are said to tie much
weaker than Chey have been for soma
weeks past.
Russian troops are seported as al
ready well across the Turkish border
and the lighting is proceeding along
a battle front estimated from 100 to
100 miles.
Berlin reports little activity along
the Russian border and indications
are not lacking that the German
forces, having reached selected po-
sitions along the Diver Warthe, are
prepared to check the onrush OF the
Russian armies.
Vienna admits that the Russians
have crossed the River San but the
Austrian armies facing the Russian
left wing eviedtnly are still intact
and in a position to maintain stub
born defense.
Englands warfare against Turkey
is still naval and is likely so to re-
main until Turkey invades Egypt
Such a move, the allies hope, Will
prove a final straw to induce italy
to embark her fortunes with the en-
tentee powers, for the reason that
such an invasion would be direct
menace to Italy's newly won African
possessions.
France now has formally declared
war on Turkey and her advent may
mean increased activity on the part
of the allied fleet
The war on non-combatants among
the alien enemies in the countries OF
the various belligerents has reached
such an acute stage that both sides
virtually have asked the diplomatic
Intervention of the United States. The
police in the British Isles have les
sened their activity in rounding up
alien enemies because the military
authorities are unable to supply
quarters for their internment
But the sensational newspapers
continue the demand that every Ger
man and Austrian in the county, in
Guiding those recently naturalized, ee
interned. The German press is
equally keen in demanding retallia-
tion and 10th sides are making
charges of the ill-treatment of prison
