a month ago at Sari-Kamysh and Ar

less inactive are again taking the OF.
fensive at three widely separated
points---in the Tchoruk district, di-
rectly south of Batum, Transcaucas-
ia: near Olti, west of Kars, Transcau-
casia, and in the Providence of Khoi,
northwest of Tabriz, Persia. Military
observers see in this activity an ella
horation of the German program of a
stronger offensive throughout the
Carpathian front
The Turkish strength at these three
points is estimated to aggregate four
and a half corps, or 1876 battalions,
with 264 guns. The force includes
35 cavalry squadrons and 10000 men
of the second line. According to Rus
sian staff officers, the Turks since
their recent defeats have succeeded
in bringing from Constantinople
about fifteen new divisions of caval-
ry artillery. and engineers.
