LATEST WAR NEWS

The French and British troops
opposing the invasion of the Ger
man army in Belgium have suff-
cred a serious reverse, according
to the official announcement is
sued by the French War Office.
In the battle line, which extends
from Mons to the Luxembourg
frontier, several army corps, COM
posed of both British and French
took the offensive on Sunday
against the Germans, but their
plan of attack failed, owing to the
unforeseen difficulties" as des-
cribed by the official statement,
and the troops retired to the COW
ering positions.
The losses on both sides are
reported as extremely heavy, and
the French officials describe the
Germans as being obliged to es-
tablish themselves in fresh posi-
tons in Lorraine.
The French have abandoned
those portions of Alsace and Lor-
raine which they had previously
occupied, and now look for heavy
fighting in French territory.
Detachments of German caval-
ry, operating on the extreme
right, have reached Roubaix, a
few miles to the north of Lille.
This territory is defended only by
reservists.
Emperor Nicholas of Russia is
to have gone to the head
quarters of the Russian army,
which has taken the offensive in
full strength and is said to be adj
vancing rapidly in East and West
Prussia
