SLAV VICTORY
At ERzERUM
WAS COMPLETE
Turks Suffered Terrible Losses in
Defending Their City Against
the Russians.
TEUTONS CAPTURE
ALBANIAN CITY
Ministry of BRAND Wins Out
Against Opposition by Heavy
Vote.

London, Feb. lS.-While full details
of the capture Of Erzerum, Turkish
Armenia, are still lacking, semi-ofti-
cial advices from Petrograd are to
the effect that most OF the Turkish
garrison made their escape. Thous-
ands Of Armenians are declared to
have been massaCred by Kurds before
the evacuation.
There has been considerable artil
lery activity around the positions tax.
en- recently from the British in the
vicinity of Ypres and several at
tempts by the British to recapture
their lost ground by infantry attacks.
Berlin says the attacks we're repuls-
ed with heavy casualties. .......
By the capture of Kavaya, ii would
seem that the Teutons have DurazzO
almost surrounded.
COnstantinople reports that Essad
iPasha has been deprived Of his rank
and removed from the Turkish army
list, for having assumed the leader
ship of the provisional government
Of Albania and joined the ranks of
the Entente allies.
"The completeness of the defeat
sustained by the Turks and the terri
Bile losses they suffered in the Ere
rum fighting are becoming more and
more clear an official statement
says. "The forts and fortress itself
and country are full Of dead" ..
In Hot Pursuit.
"The remnants Of the Turkish ar

in disorder at many points in differ
ent directions. A severe snow storm
| has failed to cool the ardor of our
men in pursuit, who are close on the
heels of the enemy and are annihiat-
ing them and taking them prisoners
at the end of the column.
"A number of other trophies taken
and Turkish soldiers captured in the
vast region of Erzerum are being tab
ulated'
Capture Albanian Town.
The capture of Kavaya, Albania, 80
miles southwest of IDurazzo, capital
Of Albania, by Hungarian
troops, assisted by Albanians, is an
nounced in the official report of the
Austro-Hungarian headquarters re-
ceived here today, which says the
garrison there was composed of Es-
wad Pasha's gendarmes, who escaped
capture by flight on board ship.
The ministry Of Aristide BRAND
was triumphant in the chamber of
deputies today over the extreme So
cialists and the radical socialists,
who, after long preparation, sought
to overthrow the government on the
question whether it was not delegat-
ing too much authority to the gener-
al staff. The proposed attack on the
ministry had been common talk in
parliamentary quarters for a month
past. 1t was based more on political
rivalries than on real differences over
the conduct of the war. Mr. BRAND
met his opponents by declining reso.
lutely to have their questions discuss
ed in the chamber and demanded a
vote of confidence in the movement.
This was given, 1874 to 169.
