BITTER CONFLICT
 IN. MES0P01AMIA
English Casualties 700 in
 Battle with 15,00O Turkish Troops.

London, April 16.-An announce ment by the Indian office tonight tells of severe fighting in Mesopotamia, in which 15,000 Turkish troops were driven from strongly entrenched position, with heavy losses on both sides.
 The action took place at Zombeir, south of the Shaiba fort, on April IA
 "The enemy's fcrce," the report states, including six regular battal- ions with six guns, occupied series of well-oncealed trenches, whence they were able to direct heavy rifle and machine gun fire on our advanc- ing troops. Nevertheless, our attack was driven home and the enemy, after a most determined resistance. was driven from his trenches at the point of the bayoret by charge of the whole line."
 The British casualties are 700 oi all ranks. The Turks were forced to retreat to Wakahalia, 19 miles north west of Zombier.
 The report adds that there have been no further attempts by the Turks against Karna. There was desultory artillery firing at Ahwaz on April 15.

FRENCH BREAK DOWN. Great Achievements Being Brought
 Up, Says Berlin.

Berlin, by wireless to Sayville, April 16.-German army headquar- ters, reporting on the hard fighting between the Mouse and the Moselle from April 10 to IA, states that the French offensive on large scale, aft- CT several local successes, broke down entirely under the heavy losses.
 The main feature of the embittered nightly attacks was the hand-tO-hand fighting.
 German scouting flyers report that behind the French front there are continuous movements of large bod lies of troops, indicating an intention to renew tie attack.
 According to a similar report from Austrian headquarters. the four weeks battle in the Carpathians is the most gigantic battle in the worlds history. Not less than 3R million men are taking part in it. The battle reached it's climax several days ago, the report states, when the Russian offensive was stopped and driven back with most appalling losses.
 Large numbers of trains are daily carrying the wounded back to the in- terior of Russia. The field hospitals are overcrowded with the wounded and sick, thousands of whom succumb without adequate medical attendance. A high Swiss officer, studying the situation in a Zurich paper, forecasts the utter failure of the French offen- sive and of the attempts to force the r'ardanelles.
 "The inability of the British navy to meet and destroy the German naval forces" he said, "clearly indicates
 that the triple entente has lost the
 war. The only question now remain
 ing is when the truth will be real jiZed,"

 Allies Have Lost.

Petrograd, April 16-The stupend- ous battle in the Carpa;nians appar- ently is rapidly approaching it's eli max
 During such crisis. iii the interest 'cf military operations, it is the GUS tom of the grand duke commander-in- chief to reduce to minimum his communications to the public.
 Sectional counter attacks, particu- larly in the hills overlooking the Uz- sok road, have ended in another Aus tr'an defeat, with heavy losses.
 The Russians on Tuesday got to the rear of the Austrian position south of the main ridge, near Volo- sate. The Austrians on Wednesday and again yesterday, attempted to change front, but the Russians at tackled and drove them some miles to the southwest. There is now consid- erable artillery fire across the Duna- jcc.
 Official critics calculate the Austro- German forces already concentrated in the Carpathians and being trans ported thither total nearly 2,500,000 Regarding the strength of the Rus sians who can oppose this vast host, there is no precise information here, but it has been affirmed that during the early struggles they were in de- cided numerical inferiority.
 Moreover. it is now stated in a semi- official army journal, nothing the |eneny may attempt in the Carpath- ians will have the effect of diverting Russian reserves fro mthe main road to Berlin
 Whatever the proportions of the armies, victory in the immediate fu- ture is likely to remain with the side which possesses the greatest courage, Itenacity and endurance, for the bulk of the fighting is taking place on pre- cipitous hills and in valleys drifted deep in snow.

Employers Plan to Replace With Non Union Men All Allied Workers.

Chicago. April 16.-SiXteen thou sand union carpenters. striktlg for a wage increase of , cents an hour today were under the ban of lockout order by their former employers. Painters, fathers, plasterers and sheet metal workers found themselves in similar circumstances, and enough al lied trades were affected to bring tine total of idle men beyond 75,00O.
 Decision cf sheet metal contractors to join the fight against the unions was a blow to the latter. as the labor leaders had hoped that employers in that line would try to Derpetuate con- ditGrs, which it was declared, gave local concerns a monopoly on sucn work in this city.
 Most of the employers affected have decided to bring non-union men into Chicago from other cities. The first action of this kind probably will he taken by the contracting painters and decorators, who have decided to sub- stitute strangers for 5000 union brush wielders. who were locked out because |3 GOO of their number struck in pro |test against the anti-strike agreement which all members of the Building
