The battle in west Flanders and for miles to the south, in French territory continues with unabated fury. Irem day to day there is apparently little change in the, general situation, but each day of the fighting has meant a re-arrangenaent of forces at certain places which in the end must be of vast importance when the two oppos- ing forces come to grips in the final struggle.
 The advantage is claimed by both the Germans and the allies and 1t IS possible that both believe they have made gains at the points where gains are bound to count in the end. Mean while there has unQueS Stionab1y been a great loss in killed, wounded and prisoners.
 The official information from Berlin declares that the western campaign is making satisfactory but slow pro- gresS: that 500 French, coTored and English prisoners have been taken in the vicinity of Ypres; that further south the German troops have repulsed strong counter attacks by the British snd are advancing and that in the Ar g0nne region favorable progress is be-
 The situation in the eastern area is somewhat uncertain owing to the con- f1ictfng reports. From Pstrograd 1t is 6laLeQ IDaI I00 aAuSIE1an5 0SdcuaLI0n continues of positions to the southeast of Lemberg, in Galicia, and in BulSo- wina and with respect to the latter territory, that with the exception of a garrison of reservists, no Austrian troops are left there.
 On the other hand, a Berlin dispatch by way of London says that official reports from Vienna announcce the evacuation of the greater portion of Bukowina hy the Russians, who are being pursued by the Austrians.,
 Petrograd official reports also claim marked progress in East Prussia. where the Germans are said to have been driven ba6k.
 Professor Fares, the British govern nent's representative with the Russian army. without giving details, or the re- suit of the engagements, says:
 '"The theatre of the recent operations Gin Russian Poland) is of crucial inn portance. Here Austria and Germany join hands and serious reverses would compel one or the other Of heir capi- tals.'
 '"The loss of~ German cruiser REnaden under the fire of the Australian cruis- the bottling up of the Koenigsberg, are incidents whichc have rejoiced the British public, as both these German warships have been exceedingly active in destroying British merchant vessels. Advices from South Africa report the further rounding up of rebels, not from Pretoria, where an additional 120 have been killed or wounded

 The grand vfzer pleaded for more time in which to get rid of the Ger

 breaches of neutrality more glaring. All the while the grand vizer protest ed his deep regret at the course affairs had taken, and still declared he would
