The German emperor, according 10
late advlces, by way OF Copenhagen,
has gone 10 the front in the western
thcater OF the war. where the general
attempt by the allies 20 force the
,iormans backward has been going on
for several days.

statements clearly show that opera
tlons of great severity are IN progress

allies during the past day or two. 10
the south OF Noyon also the French
claim 10 have gained foothold In
the first line OF the German trenches.
No mention u made by the French Of
any repulse OF the allied forces.
The German official statement tells
OF the dislodgement IN the neighbor-
hood of the canal of La Basseo OF the
Anglo-indinn troops and the capture
OF their trenches after inflcting heavy
losses aud taking prisoners To the
northeast OF Chalons, In the neigh
bOrhood of Souain also, the Germans
claim TO have repuised a fierce at
tack By the French who left many
prisoners In their hands and large
number Of dead In front of their po-
sitions.
While all the world IL waiting the
outcome Of the battles in Poland ana
Galicia, few details are made pub
lie, probably because no definite de-
cislons have been reached. The con-
tinuance Of the German operations m |
Poland is referred to In the most re-
cent Berlin bulletin, but the relative !
position Of the opposing forces Is not 7
mentioned.
