A GENERAL SURVEY OF
The WAR

The German war Office announces
that the British have failed to advance
beyond Neuve Chapelle, the capture
of which town they admit.
Reports from Petrograd say that a
new advance on Warsaw is being made
by the Germans from directly north,
and from the Przanysz region. About
half a million men are said to have
been assembled by the Germans for
this movement.
British warships have bombarded
Westende again. In Poland the Rus
SLAMS have retreated from Grodno with
heavy losses, and the Germans have
progressed in the Przanysz region.
The British under secretary said in
the house of commons that Japan's de
mands on China had not violated the
spirit of the treaty made by the allies
and that England's agreement with
Japan insured the preservation of the
"open door" policy in that country.
and also China's integrity. Japan has
modified her demands on China and
the situation seems to have been
smoothed over.
Germany has proposed to Italy that
she remain neutral on condition that
Austria cede the Trentino to her.
Italy has not yet replied and import
ant conferences continue night and
day. The moment for Italian interven-
ton is close at hand, according to dis
patches from Rome.
The British admiralty announces
the loss of the auxiliary patrol cruiser
Bayano. of $500 tons. The vessel
was apparently sunk by a German SUBJ
marine. Only twenty-six members Of
the crew were saved.
