Tor a week under terrible weather con-

arrival of new troops has been noticed.
The scene of the hottest fighting
seems to be at Hartmansweiler Kopf
which wa captured by the French a
few days ago but is now held by the
Germans. The position Is a most i'm
portant one and the determination OF
the French soldiers to get possession
OF It again has produced one OF the most
notable infantry actions of the war.
The Kopf is a heavily wooded hill about
! 5000 feet high and easily defended. The
natural obstacles are great and the
Germans are in force there. but despite
all these handicaps a regiment of

east IL the plans made at Berlin by
Baron Won Burian. the new Austrian
Foreign Minister. and the Archduke
Charles Frederick. on the one side, and
tho Kaiser and his advisers on the other
can be carried out successfully,
These plans were necessitated by the
position into which repeated Russian
successes in Bukowina and Transyl-
vania, coupled with the inability of the
Germans TO force the Russian lines at
Warsaw, have forced the Germans and
the Austrians. Az Russian masses swept
through tho passes OF the Carpathians
and advanced over the Hungarian plains
the cry from all Hungary has been for
aid to repel the invaders or else peace.
The Germans and tho Austrans-par-
ticularly the faction led by Baron Won
Burian--have had no intention whatever
of yielding to the peace cry, but have
recognized that something must be done
to weaken the pressure on Hungary. One
OF the causes OF the failure OF the Aus
trian troops seemed to be that many of
the soldiers were Slavs or for other rea-
sons did not fight with great spirit
against the Russians.
Accordingly arrangements were made
at the recent conference to exchange
troops. Therefore Hungarians and Aus
TRANS are being sent to fight with the
Germans on the western front In ex-
change for large numbers OF Germans, es-
peclally Bavarlans and Saxons, who have
