The BriuS prime minister will re- ply, Tuesday afternoon, in the house of commons, to the German peace note, which has been transmitted by the American ambassadors to he British and French foreign offices, and also will outline the policy of Inc new government, an announcement that will have a far-reaching effect on the world war.
 French troops have regained entire occupancy of Chambrettes farm, northwest of Verdun, and about the center of their advances of last week.
 Prisoners taken in the latest French thrust on the Verdun front now total more than 11,000, in addition to 115 cannon and 107 machines guns cap tured or destroyed.
 Paris reports the repulse of several German offensive attempts in the Sommc region.
 Unofficial estimates made in Barlin place the French army at 3,S09 o00 men and the British army at 1900, 000.
 Anglo-F French losses on the Sononn front to the end of November arc estimated at Berlin at SO0000, the British share being 550000. The Ger man losses on the Sommo front are declared by tho Germans to have beer less than 500000.
 In the region of Buzeu Barli-' states the soldiers of Field Marshal von Mackensen have been succe s-fu' in minor engagements. Petrograd as serts that in the region of the Feli- rechti railroad station, east of Bl'zeu, hostile attacks were arrested.
 Regain Ground in DObrudia.
 The Babada dagh-Pecineage line, about 40 miles north of the Tchernavoda- Constanza railway has been crossed by the Teutonic troops, who now have taken virtually all the ground they held during the previous advance in Northern Dobrudja. The advance in Dobrudja brings the forces of the central powers near important rail- road and storage centers of Ibralia' and Galatz.
 On the eastern Moldavian front the Russians have taken two ridges of heights, according to Petrograd. One ridge was in the Uzul valley and the other east of Glashutte, where more than 200 prisoners were captured Except for the repulse of Russian att tacks by the Austro-Germans near Lutsk in Volhynia, and near Aoroff, in Galicia, there has been little activ- ity on other fronts.
 Berlin announces that French battleship of the Patrie class was heavily damaged by torpedo from German submarine in the Mediter- ranean sea on December 12. The previous day French transport car rying 1000 soldiers was torpedoed southwest of Sicily. The French ad- miralty denies that French warship of the Patrie class was damaged by a torpedo.
