The new position OF the German front

miles west Of the Vistula river,
which they reached at the time OF the
attempted attack on Warsaw. indicates
the tremendous retreat OF General Won
Hindenbergs entire army in Poland dur

regarded as especially important since

point at Sandomlr which is at the june
ton of the San and Vistula rivers, has
also been retaken.

little possibility of the Germans regaining
the lost territory because Of any improve

NE WORK, Nov. l4.-That the British dreadnaught Auda- cious, the third largest vessel in England's navy, was sunk off the north coast of Ireland on 0c- tOber 27, after being hit by a tor pedO or by striking a mine, was the startling news which was made public today.
 The White Star liner Olympic, which arrived here this morning, confirmed the news. The 0lym- pie, which saved the entire crew of the Audacious with the excep- tion of three men, says the dreadnaught sank 25 miles of the Irish coast, while passengers on the Olympic watched the tragedy.
 The rescue Of the crew was made while mountainous seas were running, and the crew of the Olympic exhibited great dar- ing and bravery.
 4 wireless cry from the Au- dacious summoned the Olympic at 9 o'clock on the morning of October 27. By noon a hundred of Che crew had been taken of, at which time the Audacious was listing badly and slowly sinking.
 Two of the engines of the Au- dacious were unharmed by the explosion.
 In spite of the efforts of the cruiser Liverpool, and other garships, the AudaciOus finally sank, stern first.
