Monitors Dodge TOrpedoes.
curiously enough. the monitors retain
that title from 'Idncoln's Cheese Box" Of
civil war fame. and so far apparently
they have been able to dodge submarine
attacks. though. as reported on Tuesday
at least twelve torpedoes were discharged
at them without one finding It's mark.
How the German submarines got to
ostend Is unknown. but presumably they
crept down the Dutch coast. submerging
whenever sighted by a british patrol, and
then picked their way carefully through
the British mine fields.
With the fighting along the Belgian
coast hardly more than seventy miles
from Dover. that area OF hostilities
necessarily holds chief interest with the
British public, though. according to last
nights Paris official communication
there we're violent actions here and there
along more than a seventy-mile front,
extending almost due north, and south
from Newport to La Basseel
Everywhere the allies claimed TO be
holding their positions; reinforcements
for the German right have been spoken
of daily since ostend was taken, and
today comes report that Austrian
forces were being transferred from the
Italian frontier for this purpose.

Rumors that Emperor William is Sc
riously Ill are filtering in here via Paris
and this. with a report that a German
fleet is off FRlsterbo. Sweden, are among
the unusual crop of unconfirmed mar
ratives that London is discussing.
From the east comes a claim OF the
Austrians that they have retsken the last
point in the Carpathians held by the Rus
SLAMS and it was added that there is
now no enemy on Hungarian sail"
A reiteration that the Germans have
been routed south Of Warsaw was the
gist OF Petrograd's latest communication.

some Of their reserve troops, who at

between Blonie ana Prouschkofr. suffered
severely. II was there that the Siberian
troops together with other Russian
forces inflicted terrible Losses on the
enemy. Many villages In the vicinity

In engagements near Kosieniea the
Caucasian regiments also gave proof OF

auences as to constitute a real victory
or defeat.
Meanwhile the anticipation of Ger
man evacuation of the Belgian coast Is
still unreaiized. though II the British
fleet is able for a little time longer to
maintain undisturbed it's present point OF
vantage II can assuredly render the few
miles Immediately abutting the sea UNI
tenable.
Monitors May Go Inland.
Whether the network Of canals in this
part OF Belgium will enable the monitors
to go inland has not yet franspired. The
fighting. from all accounts. Is as stub
born as In any stage OF the war thus far.
Every foot OF the battle-ground In West
Flanders u contested. Every village IL
taken and retaken. The rush tactics
which characterized the first part Of the
campaign are being repeated and both
sides claim that they regularly repulse
these onslaughts.
Judging from the French official COM
munication. the allies have acquired a
holding" habit which was lacking in
the earlier stages OF the war. when they
were admittedly in a state Of unprepared-
ness. The reticence of the German in
teIugenee department. however. largely
battles the attempts OF unbiased observ-
ers to gauge the actual situation. which,
when Berlin is heard from. may assume
an entirely different aspect.
