French Front Being Denied
The French claim their front In
the Argonne forest, after being dented
by a violent attack by the army Of
Crown Prince Frederick william, has
been restored, the net result being q
costly adventure for the Germans but
the strength OF the offensive at this
point leads the British press toAspec-
ulate whether the Argonne or the
Woevre districts will not be selected
for a general German offensive rather
than the battle grounds in Flanders.
Many reports from Balkan sources
revive the rumors that Turkey is
weary Of war and anxious for sep
arate peace. Though none of the re-
ports finds confirmation, some sec
lions Of the British press profess TO
believe that they are not improbable
in that Turkey is beginning to feel the
pinch Of ammunition shortage in the

refusal to allow munitions to cross
her borders.
Berlin Attacks Rumania. MS
The attacks made on Rumania by
Berlin newspapers coincide with this

arms and AMIN unition is being felt.
