ATTACK SUDDENLY
SHIFTED AT NIGHT
French Held Steadfast and
Sent Attackers Back with
Curtain of Fire, Notwith-
standing That the Charges
Were of the Most Violent
Character

The German drive at the Verdun de-
fenses has again shifted direction. Strong
assaults were made on the lines east of
Verdun during the night, five successive
assaults in the Vaux region being re-
pulsed by the French. The Paris war
office announced to-day that the German
attacks were of the most violent char
acter but each was broken up by the
French curtain of fire. Both the fort and
the village of vaux were the German OBJ
jectives, two attacks being made on each,
while a fifth was delivered in an effort
by the Germans to debouch from pro-
tected roadway southeast of Vaux vii
lage.
Important operations may be develop
ing along the southern part of the Rus

activity by the artillery on both sides.

along the Stripa but without success, the
Austrian war Office declares.
The Italian offensive along the Isonzo
is commanding increasing attention al
though Vienna's latest report on the sit

Austrian lines have decreased in violence. |
The current statement of the Rome war
office records counter-attacks by Aus
trians on positions newly won by the
Italians. These are declared to have
been repulsed.
Dispatches from Dutch sources indicate
probably small loss of life in the sinking
of the Dutch liner Tubantia off the Dutch
