Whether this number constituted the entire ships company is not known. It is still in the French and Russian war theatres that the heaviest battles are in progress, but fighting also is con- tinuing in the Austro-Italian zone, in Servia, near the Greek frontier, and in Asiatic Turkey.
 The French are keeping up vigorous bombardment of the woods of Maian- court and Avoncount, north of Verdun, which are held by the Germans, and also are haminering away at German lines of communication in the east fringes of the Argonne.

 region of Freidrichstadt to the district around Wilma, the Russians and Germans are hard at grips Petrograd says that near Widsy, between DvinslS and Wilma,
 the Russians forced all the German lines and barricades and repulsed a vigorous 1 German counter attack. I Berlin, however, says that here the Russian attacks failed with heavy losses before the German entanglements. Bad weather prevails in the Austro-
 Italian theatre, but notwithstanding a blizzard, the Italians have attacked and occupied Austrian positions in the Corde-
 vole valley.
