 OTHER FRONTS
TRepublIcan A. p. Leased Wire1


 There is a pause in the fighting in the Somme region, due to the indictment weather. but heavy battles are in prog ress on the eastern front in Russia, Galicia, Pennsylvania and Rumania and on the southern front in Macedonia.
 Along the Stokhod river, Germans and Austro- -Hungarians have taken the offensive against Russians, and, ac- cording to Berlin, near ZarecZe have crossed the river in pursuit of their retreating foe and have captured thirty-one officers and 2511 men and seventeen machine guns. Here four lines of Russian trenches were pene-' trated by the Teutonic allies, says Vienna
 In Galicia, a counter attack by the forces of the central powers along the Narayuvka river southeast of Lem berg, brought further success to their armies and resulted in the capture of an additional 4200 men.
 In the Ludowa region of the Car pathians, Russians have gained some new positions.
 The war chancellories at Berlin, So- fla and Vienna record victories for the Teutonic allies over the Rumanians in Pennsylvania and Dobrudja. In south ern Pennsylvania, near Hatszeg, ac- cording to Berlin, invading Rumanians have been repulsed and are being pur- sued by the Austro-Germans, while in Dobrudja, the new line formed by the Russians south of the ConstanZa rail- way and running from the Black sea to the Danube has been penetrated at some points and several villages cap tured.
 In Macedonia, fighting continues at various points but with no important changes reported. Two counter at tacks by Bulgarians against the Ser bians were unsuccessful, according to | Paris, while Sofia reports that attacks | by Russians, French and Serbian 1 troops on Bulgarian positions near Florina were repulsed, as likewise was
 an offensive west of Lake Ostroyo. Ar tillery engagements for the most part
 are going on along both the British and French sectors of the front. 1 There has been artillery activity on the Verdun fronts and around Dix
 nude. A local German attack on Brit 1 ish trenches east of Martinpuich, north l of the Somme, was repulsed. Berlin admits the relinquishment to the en- tente forces of trenches east of Ginchy and near Combles, which had been pre- viously demolished by the entente ar | tillery.
 1 The infantry fighting between the Italians and Austrians on the Carso highlands has noticeably diminished, although the artillery on both sides l continues active. 4 report attributed
 to reliable diplomatic sources in Athens
 is to the effect that the Autsrians are l preparing to evacuate Trieste.

conscription For Ireland

LONDON. Sept 19.-The applica- tion of conscrintion to Ireland is sug- gested by the Daily Mail today in an article calling attention to the urgent necessity for obtaining more men for the army. The newspaper suggests two other methods for adding to the army, namely. the raising of the age limit from fl to 45 years and the comhing out of the young men from exempted occupations, of whom it estimates. there are 1,250,000 physi- cally fit who have not yet been draft ed into the army.
 The Times military correspondent, discussing the same problem, says:
 There can be only one rule for the allies, namely, to place in the field every able bodied man that we can raise
 The time has arrived for drastic reform in the administration in the service acts and if this action is not taken quickly Germany will beat us in organizing her man-power.
 "Compulsion for Ireland is neces- sary if the Irish divisions are to be maintained. As to Great Britain rais- ing the age limit it is not pressingly needed until three or four million men ensconced in civil occupations and sheltered from service have been combed out
 The Daily Telegraph says the gov- ernment is about to appoint a com mission for the special purpose of this comhing out, of which Austen Chamberlain will be the chairman. Delicate Question Raised | PARIS, Sept 19.-A delicate ques-
