'''Sf oNldttu 1ItSS SWmmafV.)
 A torrential rainfall and the re- sni'ant turning of the battlefield al- ready hard of negotiation at many ] points, into veritable quagmire, al- most halted during Wednesday the R'eat allied offensive against the Germans in Flanders
 For the most part the day was spent by the British and French in con soidating positions won in Tuesdays drive, or in putting down strong Ger man counter attacks. At two points near Ypres, the Ger mans, using great masses of men. were successful in their counter att tacks against the British, but this advantage was offset in the Dille- beke and Yser canal sectors, where, respectively, the British and French advanced their lines.
 Meanwhile, the guns of the bellig- erents are continuing to roar all along the front in reciprocal bom- bardmcnts, preparatory to the recom- mencement of the battle when the rainfall ceases.
 The losses of the Teutons in the fighting thus far have been ex- tremely heavy, the ground in many places being covered with their dead, some of the killed mere school boys and seemingly unfitted physically for the trials of soldier in this war. In addition, the British alone have talk en more than 5000 prisoners, 4,000 of them on the Ypres salient.
 On the southern end of the front in the region of the Aisne and on the Verdun sector the Germans continue to carry out offensive operations against Petain's army. In spite of heavy bombardments along the entire Aisne region the French in vigorous counter attacks east of Cerny again have made progress. and taken pris- oners.
 : On the other hand, the Germans northwest of Verdun in an at- tack were able to penetarte the French firt line trench clements in the region between Avocourt wood and Hill BOA.
 AlthO the AustrO-Gcrmans continue the press the Russians in Galicia and Bukowina having Taken additional positions along the Horodenka- -Czer- nowitz railway, and north of the Dneister river, the Russians south east of Tarnopol in the vicinity of 1Trembowla have taken the offen- sive in an endeavor to prevent the northern end of their line in Galicia from being pushed back toward the Russian frontier.
 The Russians have been successful in capturing one enemy vantage point. On the northwetern frontier of Ru- mania combined Russo.Rumanian forces are continuing their advantage against the Austrian3 and Germans.
 In their smash against the enemy lines in the Putna anS Casin valleys, they have penetrated to depth of from 10 to 12 miles ard have captured 98 guns and about 4,500 prisoners.
