.BRITANN.C BLOWN UP
Fifty Reported Killed, Twenty.eIsht
Injured and 100 Rescued When
Biggest English Hospital
Ship Sinks.

London.-The British hospital ship
Britannia, probably the former White
Star liner Of the same name. and one
of the biggest ships afloat, was sunk
in the Zea channel of the Aegean sea
by mine or torpedo. The admiralty
that of those aboard about
fifty were lost. twenty-eight were in
jured and l,100 saved.
The White Star liner Britannia was
a steel. triple-screw vessel Of 4s,15s
tons-the biggest British ship now
afloat, 5000 tons larger than the IT,
taIiic. She was built for the White
Star lines passenger service. being
finished only last year. but was imme-
diately requisitioned by the British
government as hospital transport.
The Zea channel, where the ad.
miralty states the great ship was lost,
is bit OF water between the main.
land Of Greece and the island Of Zea.
From this It is safe to assume that
the Britannia was bringing back
wounded from Saloniki. the channel
being one Of the direct routes to the
allies depot In this section.

London.-The entire line of the Alt
river in Rumania, running north and
south through the country from the
Transylvanian Alps to the Danube is
now In the hands Of the Teutonic
allies.
In all directions the invaders are
continuing to make progress, with
Bucharest, their main objective. daily
coming nearer. The southern and
eastern drive in the Alt region has
brought the Teutonic forces across the
Topolog river. while to the south, be-
tween Rochi de Vede and Valeni, their
line has been drawn considerably
nearer the Rumanian capital.
Alexandria, forty-seven miles south
east of Bucharest, has been taken by
Field Marshal Won Mackensen's troops.
Considering the swiftness Of the ad-
vance of the Teutonic allies through
wallachia. comparatively few prison
ers have been taken. although semi
official reports credit them with hav-
ing captured considerable supplies OF
needed stores. Near Orsova. twenty
eight officers and 1900 men were
made prisoners, while in the Alt re-
gion, near Tigveni. ten additional Off
GERS and 400 men fell into the hands
OF the Teutons.
In big battle extending over a
front of about seventeen miles north.
west and northeast of Monastir. be-
tween Trnova and Makova, the entente
allies, according to Berlin. have mel
with severe defeat through the fall
ure of an attack launched against the
lines OF the central powers.
Aside from reports of the repulse OF
the Bulgarians by the Serbians and OF
continued progress for the Italians
west of Monastir. the entente allies
war offices record no important
gains on the Macedonian front.
In the Carnia sector of the Austro.
Italian thoater and east of Gorizia the
Austrians are vigorously Smelling the
Italians.
A semi-official dispatch from Berlin
quotes Constantinople advices to the
effect that Arabs on the Tripoli.Tunis
frontier in north Africa. have defeated
the Italians and carried the fight
across the border into Tunis against
the French.
The losses of the Italians are esti.
mated at 10000 men. not including
prisoners taken into the interior by
the Arabs.
Great Britain has definitely declined
to grant a safe conduct to the United
States of the newly appointed Austro
Hungarian ambassador.

The Carranza general reported killed
is said to be Gen. Gandara, a former
follower OF Villa, who received am
nesty. The fighting. us far as can be
learned from the typical brief military
messages which have come over the
federal wire and from the more ampli-
fled Associated Press dispatches. was
centered around the eastern sector OF
the defensive works. Creeping along a
pebbly, dry wash from the direction OF
Santa Eulalia. to the east OF the capt
tai, the bandits opened their attack In
unison at 6 u. M, upon the infantry
entrenched behind breastworks ex-
tending along the plains to the east.
Upon being repulsed with rifle. ma
chine gun and shrapnel fire, the ban
dts made wide detour and swung off
to the northwest on their diminutive
COW ponies.
This attack continued until after .
o'clock and followed an early morning
attempt of the villa bandits to capture
Santa Rosa hill to the southeas, OF the
town and obtain possession OF the can
non which crowns this hill.
