the railroad toward Fokshsni. Three
thousand more prisoners and % ma

invaders, bringing the number of
men taken in the Rimnik-Sarat sector,
up to 10,220.
Although the Berlin war Office re-
ports that the Teutonic allies in Do

against the Russians and Rumanians
and have forced the Russians from
fortified heights east of Matchin, on
the east bank of the Danube, opposite
Braila, Petrograd announces that the
invaders south of the Danube have
been repulsed with heavy loss, ex-
cept at the village of Rakel, which
has been occupied by them. British
armed motor cars, says Petrograd,
did great execution in this fighting.
Considerable fighting has again
taken place on the Verdun sector
around lie Mort Homme and the east
ern slopes of Hill 3O4, where the
Germans made an attack but were re-
lpulsed, ana where later the French
began bombardment of the German
positions. Elsewhere along the
French front there have been recipro-
cal bombardments and attacks by
small patrol parties, interspersed with
fights in the air and aerial raids by
French, British and German aviators.
In the encounters in the air, each
side is reported to have lost machines.
