WAR SITUATION.

600 Germans are assaulting the
French lines, along a twenty
five-mile front to the north of
the Fortress of Verdun, is the
outstanding feature in the cur
rent war news.
To take the Fortress of Verdun
is one of the chief ambitions with
which the German Crown Prince
has been credited, The present
effort under his command is on a
scale that indicates the most de-
termined effort yet of his armies
to break down the barriers with
which the French have protect
ed their stronghold and get with
in striking distance of the for
tress itself.
At last accounts the battle was
still raging with great furry,
both sides keeping up a continu-
Gus fire from all available artil.
lery and throwing masses of
troops into the fray. Losses on
each side have been extremely
heavy.
In the fighting during the Sec
ond day of the great battle the
Germans pushing their way at
points two miles inside the for
mer French lines, penetrating as
far as the village of Haumot, less
than eight miles from the for
tress. The French claim to have
held the approaches to the south
of that village, however, check
ing the German advance there,
as they did in the wood of Caures.
East of the latter point, howev-
er, the German advance contin-
ued, their forces penetrating the
WavriIle wood after desperate
fighting. Elsewhere the German
attack is claimed to have been
arrested.
After the men of the German
prize crew on board the captured
British steamer Westburn had
landed their prisoners on the
Canary Islands they took the
Westburn outside the harbor of
Santa Cruz, Teneriffe, and sank
her, according to a Santa Cruz
dispatch. The prize crew is be-
lieved to have been from the
German sea raider Moewe, which
captured the British steamer APP
pam.
An unexpected war develop
ment is reported from Lisbon,
where thirty-six German and
Austrian vessels in the Tagus
river were seized by the COM
mander of the Portuguese naval
division. The commander, who
apparently acted on his own inia-
tive, hoisted the Portuguese COL
ors on the vessels and saluted
them with a salvo from the Port
uguese feet.

state of war with the Central
Powers, is in close treaty rela.
