War SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Dec. Especial
Progress along the Ypres canal is
noted in the latest French official
war bulletin, although the climatic
conditions are unfavorable to any ex-
tensive movement by the opposing
forces on the battle front in Belgium
and France. The Germans have re-
piled to the attacks of the allies, and
violent fighting is reported during
the past t%wenty-four hours.
An interesting feature of the
French official communication is the
statment that the railway station at
Commeroy, in the department of the
Meuse, has been bombarded by the
German batteries from a great dis
|tance. Commeroy lies about seven
miles to the south of st. Mihiel.
