RUSSIAN ARMY CORPS
WAS ABOUT WIPED OUT

The loss of almost an entire
army corps in the recent retreat
from east Prussia is admitted by
the Russian general staff in the
version of the German victory. or
this corps, il is said that only
broken and disorganized portions
escaped. The success OF the Ger
mans is attributed to overwhelm-
ing numbers and superior trans
portation facilities.
Unofficial reports from Petro'
grad say the main Russian army
succeeded in escaping from the
German trap and has, in turn
taken the offensive.
An aeroplane, believed 20 be
German, was fred upon while n.y.
ing, over Swiss territory and was
forced to descend.
1t is reported in Rome that Pope
Benedict has again approached
Emperor William in the hope OF
preparing the way for peace nego-
tiations.
An Australian mail steamer was
fired upon by an armed merchant
man in the English channel, ac-
cording to a dispatch from Plym-
outh. Otherwise there are no de-
yelopments in the situation grow
ing out of the German naval war
zone decree. A Berlin report OF
the sinking of British trans
port lacks confirmation.
The fighting in the Carpathians
is still being fercely prosecuted
bv the Russian and Austro-Ger-
man forces, but apparently with
out decisive results for either side.
The French not only claim Off
cially to have repulsed the Ger
man counter-attacks in the Cham
pagne region, but to have captured
an entire section of German
trenches to the north and east OF
the woods taken the day previous
". At the eastern end of the
western front the Germans have
moved forward on the Alsatian
flank Of the Vosges mountains IN
the region west Of Kolmar.
