Notre Dame de Lorette, and then at five
o'clock this morning he began a new attack,
but was soon repulsed. In the Champagne
region two small woods north of the farm
of Beausejour were occupied by US, the enc
my delivering an unsuccessful counter-at-
tack. In the Argonne the Germans made q
strong attack on a salient of our line in the
neighbourhood of st. Hubert and after a
violent commandment of our trenches they
began an attack, but were repulsed by the
fire of our infantry and artillery. The fight
ing continues in the region of Hartmann

In Champagne, east of Rheims, in the re-
gion of Prosnesles Marquises and Nor
onvilliers, we demolished certain German
field works, forced The enemy to evacu-
ate his trenches, and brought about the
explosion Of n depot of ammunition. North
west of Beausejour we made progress BY tax
ing possession by surprise of three of the
enemy's posts, and here we have installed our
selves, and at a roint north of Massiges our
artillery was successful. No change has TAX
en- place in the Argonne. Southeast of st.
Mihiel, in the forest cf Apremont, we occu-
pied $50 yards of the German trenches
and repulsed a counter attack. Northwest
Of Pont a Mousson, in the forest Of LePretre,
the enemy succeeded by a violent counter
attack in reoccupying about 20 yards of the
500 yards Of trenches taken by us in the
recent days, but generally speaking we are
holding ourselves securely in this position.
Ir the section of Thanh, and in the regions
of Silberiach and Hartmannweilelkopf there
has been infantry fighting since the night of
Tuesday, and we are progressing slowly over
territory presenting great difficulties.
A Russian official bulletin states "Tlere
has been no change in East Prussia. In the
vicinity Of Mlawa we are in close contact
with the enemy, and every effort on. the
part of the Germans to penetrate our lines
during the last "a hours has been lepulsed,
and we took by assault a place called Skempe,
which was rapidly evacuated by the enemy.
On the rivers Bzura and Rawka there have
been cannonading and heavy rife fire along
almost all the front. Our artillery engaged
successfully with the enemy's and silenced
several of the German batteries, while our
troops were successful in repulsing several
partial attacks by the enemy on this front.
South of the river Piica and in Galicia there
has been no fighting, and only here and
there has the sound of cannon firing been
heard. In BukowiDa we captured the tovn

offensive movement in the region Of the Kir-
libaba Pass, and here we captured a Major,
several other officers, and over $50 soldiers"
