Germans Renew the Attack.


The German artillery is still ham
mering at the allied lines between
Ypres and Arras. Reports reaching
Paris say re-enforcements continued
to come up for the Germans in this sec
tion and the full quota of 100000 ad-
ditional men is expected to be on the
firing line within the next few days.
More Activity in West.
While there is every Indication that
another big battle is imminent In the
West. there is no evidence that 1t ac-
tually has begun. There has been
fighting in Flanders, but this doubtless
is the result of an attempt by the Al
lies to take some advanced positions.
There also are reports that the Ger
mans have evacuated several villages
on the User canal and are concentrat-
ing on new positions. The British
have taken over command Of the User
region, and. like the French. have been
strongly reinforced. 1t is believed that
on the first sign of German move
ment to the East in any considerable
force, the Allies will take the often
sive.
Germans Gathering Near Ostend.
The Germans have evacrated sew
eral villages north of the User. They
are believed to be concentrating large
forces south of Ostend for a decisive
battle. Reinforcements Of one hun
dred and sixty thousand men are said
to haev arrived during the last few
days.
The harbor works at Zeebrugge have
been put out of commission as a re-
suit OF renewed bombardment by the
British fleet. The docks and various
other works cannot be used now. 1t is
stated. and the harbor has been closed
completely. The submarines there are
unable to leave.
Germans Destroy Ypres.
The Germans have destroyed the
old and magnificent city of Ypres. in
southwestern Belgium. Failing to
capture the place and hold 1t as a
startegic position against the Allies.
the kaiser's army drew up to the
northward an armored train OF heavy
artillery and systematically battered
the city to pieces in two days. This
is the gist of a report given in the
latest French official bulletin.
Germans Muster Entire Force.
Every able bodied German in Del.
gium who can be spared from garri-
son duty is on the fighting line be
tween Ypres and the sea. Late re-
ports say that during the lull In the
fighting OF the last week Belgian
towns back of the lines were emptied
to the last man who could be spared
in the maintenance OF order.
Big Levy on Belgium.
A message from Brussels states
that the German governor OF
the province of Brabant, in which
trussels is located. convoked a meet
ing of iinanciers and told them that
Belgium must pay 35,000.000 francs
/ (S7,O00.000) monthly for the mainte
nance of German troops. In addition
to this sum, it is said. Belgium must
contribute war levy of 375.000.00t
francs ($75 5.O00.000) as a penalty fol
violations of neutrality by Belgium
and losses ensuing therefrom to Ger
many.
