Summary of War
NeWs of Yesterday

Again the allies have assumed the
offensive on the western line Of bat
tie and, according to Paris, have made
gains in terrain, capturing officers
and men and guns and repulsed Ger
man counter-attacks.
There has been trench fighting
combats at the point OF the bayonet,
artillery engagements and what IS
termed q successful raid over the Ger
many military buildings at Ostend by
sixteen aircraft. one aeroplane also
is said to have dropped five bombs on
the headquarters Of the German inn
perial staff at Mezieres and Charlie
vile in reprisal for the alleged throw
ing of bombs by German aviator at
n hospital at Mourmelon
While there has been somewhat of
let-up in the viciousness Of the Rus
sian attempt to get their armies
through the Tarpathians and out on
the plains of Hungary. hard fighting
continues in some sections. Both Pc
trograd ana Vienna assert that oil at
tacks against their respective forces
were repulsed That scarcely any
hostillties are in progress in Poland
is indicated by the fact that in none of
the late official reports Is mention

1t was on the spur to the south Of
Notre Dame de Lorette, on the west
ern battle front that fighting with the
bayonet took place. Paris declares
that the entire section was taken.
The French troops now are in pos
session of all the southeastern slope
as far as AblainSt. Nazaire. In the
Argonne, still according to Paris, the
main trenches of the Germans were
demolished By the artillery fire of the
French, while fierce German counter
attacks were repulsed In the region Of
Albert, at La Neurissons, Montmare
and Les Eparges and in the forest Of
lie Petre. Near Les Eparges the Ger
mans are said to have lost heavily.
In the naval warfare two steamers
have been added to long list Of those
which have gone to the bottom as
result OF torpedoes or mines-the
Dutch steamer Katwyk, loaded with
grain for the Netherlands government
and the British steamer Ptmarigan.

to have been seized by the Germans
and taken into Cuxhayen They we're
reported to have been released later,

St Johns, Ariz.. April l5.--Shortly
before midnight last night the Lyman
reservoir dam. located fifteen miles
above this place, gave way and the wa
ters flooded the intervening country,
sweeping away everything that lay in
the path of the flood and causing
damage estimated at 100000. Be
cause of a defect in the telephone sys-
tenn the people of st. Johns knew
nothing of the break until the flood
was upon them, and the homes OF
three hundred people, for the most
part Spanish Americans, were quickly
submerged. many of the occupants es-
