London, Jan. 7th-A Russian official com-
muniqu6 dated Tuesday, says: "Our troops
made II sudden attack against the village of
Rozrown, west of the road from Przasnysz
to Mlawa, near Groundousk. The enemy
who occupied this village we're almost all
bayOnetted, bat we also took some prisoners.
On the left bank Of the Vistula the usual
cannonading and rifle fire are continuing.
Fighting of secondary Importance is proceed
ing in the region of Borgimow, and near
the Mognely Farm. Our offensive is pro-
ceeding in Bukowine, where we have occu-
pied Sypot and Knmeral, south of Seletin
and Ilischestie. On Monday, after an en-
gagement, we occupied Gura Humora and
Roukscboia, the latter two places are stu
ated on the best and most direct route
to Pennsylvania, by way of Bukowina.
An Austrian official statement says THE
battles in the Carpathian forest district
which now have lasted for several months
with alternate success continue there, and
battles of minor importance often take place
in lonely valleys widely separated from each
other. The enemy during the last few days
having received reinforcements, attempted to
gain ground by attacks in isolated spots on the
upper courses of the rivers. West Of the
Uzsok Pass and in the east Beskid range the
situation is quiet, but on our fronts north
and south of the Vistula artillery duels con-

Great Britain will protest against the pro-

The Government holds that the transfer of
German ships to the American flag would be
a violation of international Law, and that no
action is permissible which permits these
ships to escape the consequences of being
enemy ships. The Government is, however,
apparently willing to overlook and not object
to the transfer provided TINT Germany or
Germans DO not get the money at once, and
that the ships are lot used in the Germau
trade, and there would be no objection to
their use in Latin-Amerlcan trade. After
