War News.

Three British cruisers, the
Aboukir, Cressy and Hogue have
been sunk in the North Sea by
German submarines. They were
all of the same type of about
10000 tons and carried about 755
men each, including officers. 4
considerable part of these were
saved, according to the Londol'
dispatch which announced the
loss of the warships.
The fighting between the hos
tile armies in France seems to
be partaking along its entire
line of he nature of siege.
Both sides continue to hold a
majority of their strongly en-
trenched positions. The Ger.
man lines for 100 miles are de-
scribed as virtually a continual
ton of forts and heavy entrench-
ments.
The German right wing has
been forced to give ground again
under the French attack, accord
ing to Tuesdays official an
nouncements from Paris.
On the rest of the long battle
line in France the reports say
that the German activity was
without appreciable results.
Another dispatch says the al
lied armies threatened to turn
the flank of the German right
where a fresh force of the allies
has appeared near St. Quentin.
Berlin announced Tuesday
morning the capture on Monda Y
of strong hilly positions at Cra-
onne and the occupation OF the
village of Bethaney in an ad-
vance on Rheims. The Germans
were attacking forts on the line
south of Verdun.
Latest reports of the damage
to the Cathedral at Rheims by
German shells are that the ex-
terror damage is confined chiefly
to chipping of masonry and
breaking of carving, but the
glass of the splendid windows
are badly shattered and much de-
struction wrought in the interior.
The bombardment OF Rheims
has reduced many houses to ruins
and the inhabitants of France
are in flight.
A Petrograd dispatch says
that the population of Austrian
Galician are in fight. The Rus
slams are attacking Przemysl.
The Austrians are retreatlng
across the River Drina, closely
pursued by Seryian forces.

way from Mons to Paris was in
danger of the German faukiug
movement which threatened to
loverwhelm it so was General Won
Kiuck's right flank in its retreat
from Paris to Aisne in extreme
danger.
ITO avoid humiliation he fled

toward the west. 1t was abso-
}. lutely essential to his safety to
gain the position of Aisne."
