ROME. Nov. 1O-How many per-
sons lost their lives in the sinking of
the Italian liner AncOna by a sub

been definitely ascertained, but latest
advises from Naples say thai 800
survivors have been landed at Tunis
Ports and fifty at Malta The num-
her Of passengers on the Ancona is
placed at 4S2 and the crew has been
estimated variously from sixty to one
hundred and sixty.
The Ancona carried boats for the
accommodation of $500 and it il
possible that some OF the boats are
stm afloat and may bring in addi-
tional survivors i the next twenty
four hours.
The Ancona was torpedoed Tues
day morning and q Tunis dispatch to

matte. though brief. account of the
attack.

WAR SUMMARY
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

BY the sinking of the Italian liner
Ancona, which was torpedOed in the
Mediterranean by submarine Tues
day. it is feared that twenty-seVen
Americans lost their lives. They are
among the missing.
OF passengers and crew numbering
close to 500, three hundred and sew
enty survivors only are accounted for.
According to adVices from Thomas
Nelson Page, the American ambassa-
dor at Rome, six of the victims were
residents of New York.
from reports of the disaster re-
ceived from Tunis, where many of
the rescued We're landed it would ap
pear that the Ancona attempted to
escape and was overhauled. She was
then shelled and the charge is also
made that the lifeboats were shelled.
Many of the survivors were brought
to port in a wounded condition.
While the Austro- Germans and the
BuIgarians are still pressing outward
in Serbia, the Russians in the dis
trict of Riga have won positions
against the Germans Farther south
in the region of CZartoysk the Rus
slams have captured the village of
Budki and the forests to the south
and north, making prisoners of fifty
officers and over 1900 men, half of
them Germans, and IN addition seized
about twenty machine guns.
The situation in Serbia is the
same as it has been for the past
several days. Down in the south
it is reported that the French have
recaptured Veles, on the railway
southeast of Uskup, while over the
Montenegrin front the men of King
Nicholas apparently are putting up
hard fight to hold the Austrians
back.
The Germans in the Champagne
region of France penetrated at one
point the French trenches but ac-
cording to Paris We're dislodged from
them in a counter attack. Artillery
duels have been the rule on the other
sectors in France and Belgium and
also in the Austro- Italian front.
While there have been no fresh po-
litical developments ir the Balkans
which would tend to show that
either Greece or Rumania has de-
cided to recede from its position of
neutrality.
The activity of hostile submarines
in the Mediterranean Sea has re-
suited in the Italian, British and
French warships commencing a very
strong campaign to capture or de-
stroy the underwater boats.
