GERMANS MAKE DENIALs.
Dispute Several Statements Issued
From Rome and Petrograd.

Dispute Several Statements Issued
From Rome and Petrograd.
Berlin. Via wireless to .Sayville. L. L.,
Dec. S.-An official of the general staff
states that the repor. from Rome that
the French near Ypres, Belgium, have
captured whole corps of German
aviators, is absolutely unfounded. De-
NAL is also made by the London reports
that aviators belonging to the allies
have thrown bombs on the Krupp fac
tory at Essen.
The Russian statement contained in
the official communication of Nov. 20,
that the German attacks near Czensto-
chowa had failed with heavy losses, is
declared to be untrue. On the con-
trary, 1t is said, the seventeenth Rus
sian army corps, which was met in
this attack, was defeated on Nov. 29,
and suffered extremely heavy losses.
The Russians, it is declared. left a large
number Of killed and wounded on the
field and were forced to retreat.
The situation in the WsStern battle
field, shows little change, it is stated.
The allies have made few attacks but
these have been repulsed. News of
decisive results in the east is expected
here. The latest news from the front
is to the effect that everything is pro-
ceeding according to program. If the
investment of Warsaw would result
from the present operations the Rus
slams would lose their important rail-
way communications.

Washington, Dec. S.-Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador
here, has brought to the attention of
the state department new charges of
violation by British troops Of the rules
of International law. With his note
the ambassador filed photographs Of
cartridge used in violation Of law, and
photographs of wounds said to have
been caused by the bullets.
(. An official statement of the subject,
issued today by the. Gsrmaa embassy,
says:
New proof of violation. of the rules
of international law by British troops

ernment:
