There is little news Of import
ance from the war this week: the
Teutonic allies are still pushing
the Serbian armies back; on the
eastern front the Russian armies
have taken the offensive, and on
the western battle line there has
been some artillery work, but
neither side has made any adj
vance. The armies are prepar-
ing for a winter in the trenches,
and it looks as if they were no
nearer a settlement than at this
season last year.
