Nish. Servia. December 1O.-There
Is a shortage OF officers in the Ser

The gaps have proved source oil
considerable embarrassment to the

have now been given commissions
and sent to the front. Another mat
ter of serious concern In army cir

a number of Red Cross units from
foreign countries on the ground
there Is still a shortage Of trained

A naval battle in the South Allan
tic, and the illness Of the Emperor
William diverted attention from the
great struggle i'm progress in Bel.
GUM, France and Poland today. The
fate of the small German cruisers
Dresden and .Nurnberg. which at
last accounts were being pursued by
British warships, has not been dis.
closed. The British admiralty pre-
served its silence as TO the makeup
of the squadron which sent to bot
tom the formidable German cruisers
Scharnhorst and Gheisenua and the
smaller cruiser Leipzig, but 1t Is
intimated at Toxic that the war
ships which avenged England fol
the loss of Good Hope. and mon
mouth were all British vessels and
so far as known to the naval author
tiles at Toxic, the Japanese squad
r-n sent to the South Pacmc did
not take part i'm the engagement
II also was said at Toxic that the
British squadron was reinforced re
Gently by the addition Of several
big gun ships. so that presumably
the German warships were opposed
by the stronger enemy.
The latest reports concerning the
condition of Emperor William are
that he Is unable TO leave his bed
and that his fever has not decreased
There Is no official confirmation
however, on the reports that the EN-
peror is suffering from pneumonia.
The German armies in the west
have been stirred to renewed activ
ity by offensive movement of the
allies, as shown not only by their
sharp attacks on Flanders. but by
their attempted advancement in the
department of Disc. Ypres and Fur
mes are again reported under heavy
bombardment by the Germans.
