PETROGRAD, Jan. 5.-Along an ir-
regular battle front extending from
the Bzura river south, and southwest
for so miles, the Russians and Ger
mans are again engaged in a terrific
battle. The Germans are again on
the offensive along this whole front,
but the Russians are occupying posi-
tiOns of great strength. and reports
received from the front today state
that the German attacks are being re-
pulsed at all points where their sue
cessful advance would prove a menace
to the Russians
At some points the Germans have
succeeded in capturing a few of the
Russian trenches, only TO lose them in
counter attacks by the forces Of
Grand Duke Nicholas. The only point
where the Germans have succeeded in
holding captured ground is about
Bolimow, where they have taken part
of the town OF BOrjimOw. The Rus
slams still hold their trenches on the
eastern outskirts of BOrjimOw and are
making night and day attacks TO drive
the Germans back.
The Germans suffered heavy losses
in their capture Of BorjimOw and it is
believed that they will be unable to
hold the ground that they have won.

BRITAIN RESTRICTING
 MALE EMIGRATION
A. p. A. Service.


 LONDON Nov. 9-Orders were is- sued by the home office today requiring all male subjects of Great Britain from nineteen years of age upward wishing to buy passage to foreign lands must apply to the foreign office for pass ports before they will be allowed to leave
 The order, which became effective imediately affects nearly two thou sand persons, mostly men of military age who are already booked to sail on American steamship lines on the next two sailings.
 The order is the direct result of an immediate rush to leave the country because of a fear that a general con- scription order was about to be is- sued [. is generally accepted here that the order means that the authori ties are at least decided that conscrip- ton must be employed to swell the forces of the empire to the maximum required. By the promulgation of the passport order the officials have ef- fectually blocked any attempt of eligi- blcs to escape from the country.
