AT Apremont the enemy had no
success.
Flirey likewise completely failed.

fore our front, and the number is
increa sing, owing TO the fact that
the French threw those who had
fallen in their trenches In front of
our positions.

tion Of Andrejew, thirty kilometers

Undoubtedly. we are or the eve or
very interesting events, for there have
been many indications that Austria
was determined to stake her existence
on the last cast of the die In the Car
pathians.
She mas concentrated practically her
entire army of twenty four corps, and
also has the support of six German
corps. Moreover. there are reasons to
believe that the Germans have been
induced to withdraw some of their
troops from the East prussan front
and send them to the assistance OF
the harassed dual monarchy.
The Austrian generals have received
ORDERS TO arrest the Russian progress
AT whatever cost. and the efforts they
are making 50 FAR have been without
success. costing them very dearly.
