FORT VAUX Is
EVACUATED BY
CROWN PRINCE
Berlin Comedies Withdrawal
From Important Fortifi-
cation
RUMANIANS HOLD FIRM
Won Mackensen Believed TO Be
Preparing New Thrust;
Russ Defeated

Fort Naux, one of the most impor-
tant fortifications captured by the Ger
man crown prince in his prolonged
drive at Nerdun. has been evacuated
by the Germans. The evacuation is
announced by Berlin to-day.
Shortly after Fort Douaumont had
neen retaken and a wide stretch of the
front in this region regained by the
French in their sudden offensive on
october 25 it was pointed out that
Fort Naux likewise had been put in a
perilous position. The French ad-
Nanced close to the edge of the forti-
fication on its immediate front in their
great drive and pushed we'll beyond it
on each size. making its fall. in the
opinion of observers at the front, only
q question of short time.
The Germans evacuated Fort Vaux
during the night, says their official
report, without hindrance by the
FRENCH. and after portions of the fort
mad been blown up. The French con-
tinued to pour heavy fire from their
big guns on the fortification.
Lost All Their Gains
Virtually all the ground of pro-
nounced value taken by the Germans
on the eastern bank of the Meuse in
their winter and spring offensive at
Nerdun has now with the fall of Fort
NauX been lost to them.
French troops operating in the
Les Bouefs and Rancourt sectors on
the Somme front also gained ground
yesterday in attacks on the German
INES. The Paris report of last night
announcing these advances is in part
confirmed by the Berlin official state
ment to-day, which comedies French
gains northeast of Morval and on the
cage OF the st. Pierre-Faast wood, but
declares that the main effort of the
French to move forward was sangui-
narily repulsed.
The British likewise, SAYS Berlin,
tailed in an attack north of Courcelette
on the Somme front. London last
night reported gains in the Les Bouefs
sector in operations in conjunction
with the French. but announced to-
Gay that heavy rain was falling and
mat there were no noteworthy hap
penings during the night.
Rumanians Hold Firm
Ihere IS no apparent let-up in the
pressure which General Won Falken-
nayn Is exerting along the Rumanian
northwestern frontier, but in general
lhe Rumarians are reported to be
holding him fairly we'll in check. No
new advances of Importance are an
Office.
In the meantime. however, military
critics are looking shortly for definite
news from the province of Dobrud ia

Mackensen is believed TO be making
preparations for a new stroke in an
effort to complete his conquest of this
Rumanian province. while from
