Great Struggle of War Now Going On.

The E.;rI Gay of the great struggle
between the Allies and Germans in the
West is still In progress. The
British lost one vessel in q sea battle
begun at the same time as the land
battle. The forces Of England and
France are making mighty effort
to drive Germans back, while
Russia is apparently holding her own
OH the other side. The next few days
may bring forth decisive results in the
worlds mightiest war. The following
Is u synopsis Of yesterdays news and
there is nothing special in today's dis
patches:
Twenty thousand unwounded Ger
man prisoners and all unestimated
number of dead and wounded OH both

which extends from the North Sea to
the Swiss frontier.
Two distictive operation are under
way, one north Of Arras and the other
In the Champagne region, while there
has been an incessant bombardment
along almost the entire front.
Both the British and French have
been successful, carrying trenches eX-
tending over u distance Of 20 miles
and depth varying up to two and q
half miles. 1t is officially reported
both from Paris and London that the
advantage is still being continued, and
that the ground gained in large meas,
urc has been held and consolidated.
Berlin admits the retirement OF the
German force ut various points but
minimizes the result Of the engage

miles to the rear. This offensive is
still in progress.
The British gains have been made
to the north Of Arras. They have
taken the town of LoOs and the quar-
rieS northwest of Halluch, and have
compelled the Germans to draw OH
their reserves to check to advance.
For the time being the dramatic
dcvelOpement of events in the West
have overShawoded those in the East
ern theatre, where the Russians have
stayed the progress Of the Austro-
Germans at many points. and have
apparently succeeded in getting them
selves we'll in hand for futher often

The quick answers of Greece to
BulgarianS mobilization has probably
been factor in clearing the atmos-
pherc with respect to Bulgaria's in
tentionS. The Bulgarian Government
has notified the Powers that the mo-
hliZation Of the Bulgarian army was
ordered in the National interests and
that it was not intended as an often
sive measure. Individual mebers of
the Bulgarian Government also have
expressed themselves to the same ef-
feet. Nevertheless. both Grece and
Roumania continue to make ready for
any eventuality.
