BOTH SIDES PREPARING
FOR DECISIVE STRUGGLE
Germans Renew Their Offensive and Attempts Through
The Allied Lines to the Coast of France Were Repulsed
After Most Severe Fighting of the War;

Despite reverses the Austro-Ger-
man armies have suffered In the
east, where the Russians have set
their feet on German territory, the
GerIpans are said to be still sending
achievements to the west in an en-
deavor to break down the resistance
OF the French, British and Belgians.
There has been no decisive action
along the whole front, but each side
is making gains which may count
when the crisis is at hand. Within the
tremendous forces opposing each 9th
er, any progress necessarily must be
slow, but both the Allies and the
Germans express satisfaction with the
way in which the battle has gone thus
far.
In the east the Russian advance
guards are lighting on both the east
Prussian and Posen borders and II is
believed that the Germans have given
up their first plan Of resisting the
Russian advance on the positions
which they had prepared along the
Warthe river.
According to German report, the
Russians have suffered reverse on
the East Prussian frontier. where
they lost 1000 men and some machine
guns. but of the fighting elsewhere
In this region Berlin says nothing.
There have been no developments IN
the near east, the engagements fought
being Russian and Turkish frontier
guards in the Caucasus or the bonn
bardment OF ports.
The slackness in the recruiting IN
England has been given a flip by the
marches of some OF the crack terri.
