that as result Of recent missions to
the governments of the warning ma
tions, it could he stated that while
the nations at war were not willing
themselves to begin negotiations for

DR. Jordan said peace advocates

AMMUNITION REPORTED SHORT
outnumbered Germans Striving Vain
Iy to Hold Vast Circle OF
Territory.

London Nov. luxurious RUSSIAN
attacks yesterday against the Ger
man positions in the region OF Dvinsk
are claimed by the war Office to have
cost the weakening Germans heavily
in men and munitions and the victor
ious Russians, following up their adj
vantage are slowly sregaining Russian
territory which has been held by the
Germans in places for months.
Shortage of ammunition as well as
the heavy drain of men required for
service in the Balkan campaign are
having a telling effect on the Kaiser's
troops and the men are now fighting
desperately to hold thei. positions
against great numbers OF Russians
outnumbering them ten to one.
1t is considered doubtful in London
whether Germany can protect herself
over such a vast sweep of country as
the eastern war theater presents. The
withdrawal of troops for the Balkans
leaves the German line in the east
dangerously thin and it may be only
a question of days before the Rus
sian wedge is successfully driven
home. Ammunition is running short,
also proven by the constantly de-
creasing bombardrnents.

have been ousted from Kammern and
Anting, in the region west Of Schlock
after a battle. lastiag eleven days and
the Russians have advanced TO

heavy losses.
This is a continuation OF the Rus
sian successes in the swampy region
south and west of Riga, Kammern
being on the railway running from
Windau through Schlock to Riga
While gradually retiring before the
the north the Germans have redoubl-
ed their efforts TO make progress
against Dvinsk, They made ten sue
cessive attacks today on the Russian
positions near Illuxt, but were re-
pulsed with heavy losses. leaving
piles of dead before the Russian tren-
ches The fighting in this region re-
suited in progress by the Russians
near Illuxt and Pristane.
Heavy fighting continues west Of
Rafalowka, where the Germans are
trying to break through and gain pos
session of the railway junction of
Szarny, which lies north OF Rowno.
Possession OF the junction is neces-
sary to successful attack on the
fortress.

The determination of the entente
allies in their Balkan campaign is
