British Gains

Successful raids carried out Sunday
night by the British gave them 400
yards Of trenches in the woods at the
western outskirts of the city, while
Mondays operations brought them
further progress along both banks OF
the Souchez river on a front of about
a mile and a half southwest Of the
town.
Rading Parties
The British troops are harrassing
the Germans at various points along
the front held by them in Belgium and
France with nightly raiding parties
which have been successful in killing
numerous Germans and taking other
prisoners.
The British and German. airmen
continue to strive for mastery in
France and Belgium. Sunday witness
ed the destruction Of five German air
planes in battles in the air and anoth-
er by anti-aircraft guns, while five 9TH

The British. however, lost five MA
chimes during the operations.
Mighty artillery duels are still In pro-
gTeSS on several sectors Oh tno 1TOnl be-
tween scissors and Rheims by the
French and Germans. Apparently the
Germans, following their i'll success of
last week when they suffered heavy cas-
ualtes in attacks and gained only slight
advantages, have ceased for the moment.
at least, their infantry operations as the
latest French official communication
makes no mention of fresh thrusts by the
crown prince. The badly battered town
of Rheims continues to be a target for
German shells, 1900 of them having been
dropped there during Monday.
Russian Activity
The fighting activity along the Rus
sian front has again extended into the
Carpathians around kirlibaba, under
the Bukownia frontier. In Galicia be-
tween the Elota Lipa and Narayuvka
rivers, and along the upper Stripa the
fighting between the AustrC Germans
and Russians is describe. by Berlin as

The operations in the Austro- Italian
theatre have again lost their intensity.
The artillery duels have Cied down to
almost nothing while the infantry en-
counters are merely "Reminiscences.
A similar condition prevails in Mace

somewhat violent in the region of Mon
