I GERMANS RETREAT NEARLY
TEN MILES-MANY TAKEN
Petrograd.-Germans have retreat
ed nearly ten miles in VoIhynia under
swift advance Of Gen. KaIedin's left
wing.
Several thousand more prisoners,
number of heavy guns and large sup
plies of war material have fallen into
hands Of Russians.
Russians have advanced their lines
to north bank of river Lipa and are
strengthening their new position on
entire front.
All along the eastern FROM cars
armies have suddenly resumed inf-
tiative. Russian left wing in South
ern Bukowina is again in motion
against reinforced Austrian army.
Paris.-Germans launched a heavy
counter attack against newly won
French positions west Of Peronne.
Thus far all German attacks south
of Somme have been repulsed, but
heavy fighting is still going on.
London.-Despite heavy mist and
rain which interfere with SOmme Of
fensive, British troops made substan-
tial progress on front of 1000 yards
in region of Ovillers. Germans were
driven from several strongly defend
ed points and prisoners and six max
inns were captured.
Germans repeatedly attacked La
Maisonette, but were repulsed each
time with heavy losses. Most violent
combat is going on near village Of
Biachow, one mile from Peronne.
Berlin, via Wireless to SayVilIe.-
Russian troops are everywhere on
offensive on Austrian front, but at
only one point, in Volhynia, have
they caused an Austrian retirement.
