WESTERN BATTLE FRONT
Shows No Material Change With Both Germans and Allies Claiming to Have Made Slight Advances at Diff ferent Points.

London, Nov 6.-9:4O D. m.-The Russians report that having driyea the Germans back to their border in the north, and forced their center to retire from the Vistua 10 the Warthe river the Russian general staff has turned it's attention to the Austrians, who have so stubbornly been holding their positions along the San river in Galicia
 According to a telegram. received from Grand Duke Nicholas. the Rus sians have won a victory more impor- taat than any preceding it. The Rus sians say they have again occupied Jaroslau north of Przemysl, captur. ing 5,000 prisoners and much war ma teridl It is believed here. however. that there will have to he another bis battle on the Warthe before the ar mics of Emperor Nicholas seriously threaten Siesia
 In the struggle between the Ger mans and the allies in the west there has again been little, if any, change. The Germans, twice baked in their attempt to reach the French coast. are preparing for another attack which, like the last, is directed at the line held by the British on both sides of the town of Ypres, where for a fort night some of the most sanguinary fighting of the war has been in pro. gress and where the casualties on both sides, perhaps. have been larger than those on such restricted front in any previous battle
 A Berlin official report claims that the Germans have made progress here, but this is in direct contradic. tion to the claims of the allies, who say that they are holding ali their po- sitions and have made some ad- yances.
 Reports come from the Dutch from tier that the Germans are making fer retirement but mill. tary observers here say that from the fact that reinforcements are being brought up fl is certain they have not yet despaired of breaking through the allies front and reaching either Ca lais or Boulogue
 Elsewhere along the great front there has been a repetition of isolated encounters which in the French off. cial communication are referred to as minor affairs but which in ordinary wars would be considered fairsied battles.
 The British fleet, according to un- official accounts, again has taken ac- ton along the Belgian coast and has been bombardmg Knocke and Zee brugge, where the Germans are sup posed to be organizing bases for their submarines.
 Except for the Russian announce ment of their invasion of Turkish ter ritory from the Caucasus, silence rre- vails as to the operations in the troops
 Interest is centered in the possl' blities of the Balkan states being in- volyed in the war Greece, it is said, has annexed Epirius, which she was denied by the London conference after the first Balkan war.
 It is also said on good authority that negotiations are proceeding for an arrangement by which Bulgaria will receive Macedonia, which is largely Bulgarian, if she will consent to give her active support to the allies cause.
 Servia, which won Macedonia ny the sword, hesitates, it is said, to give up, but it is thought here she caa hardly turn a deaf ear to Russia. who entered upon the war on her ac' count. Further, it is said, she would receive compensation in Bosnia through which she would get route to the sea.
