The War at a
Glance

The British have been engaged in
a new and heavy attack on the Ger
man positions around Hulluch, one of
the important sectors between La
Bassee and Arras. One of the central
points Of the battle was the Hohenzol-
lern rcdoubt which was taken from
the Germans some time ago and was
partly regained by them. Preceded by
a bombardment and under cover Of @
cloud of smoke and gas, one thousand
yards Of German trenches near Hul-
luch were taken. In addition trenches
behind the Vermeles- Hulluch road
and northwest Of the forest as well as
the main trench Of the HOhenzollcrn
redoubt were captured. The British,
however were unable to hold the
thousand yards Of trenches owing to
the vicious artillery fire to which they
were subjected.
Russians Driven Back.
Along the remainder Of the front
in France there has been scarcely any
fighting except artillery duels, but on
the eastern front north of the
BukOwlna frontier where the Russ
slams q few days ago pierced the Ger
man lines and crossed the Stripa
river the Germans have cOunterats
tackled and checked the Russiang,
driving them back across the stream.
Further north along the Pripet
river and in the region OF Dvlnsk the
Germans claim further successes for
their arms.

Austrians through Serbia continues
but still at q slow pace. The Serb
