French Capture Powerfully Or
ganized Teuton Positions in
Champagne Region; DeSper-
ate Battle Progresses.
IMPORTANT STRUGGLE
IN RUMANIA SOON
Political Situation at Berlin Isl
Uncertain Because of Rigid
Censorship Over All Press
Reports.
Ia" MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w,ssi

With somewhat of a slackenng of
the Russian offensive in Galicia ow-
ing to bad weather, the French and
the Germans along the Chemin des
Danes and in Champagne have come
together in mighty struggles in which
the advantage rested mainly with the
forces of General Petain.
In Champagne, to the north of Mont
Haut and northeast of the Teton, the
French in a violent attack captured
powerfully organized German trench
elements on a front of more than 500
yards and to a depth of more than
300 yards and held and consolidated
the positions, notwithstanding heavy
counterattacks in which the Ger
mans suffered heavy casualties and
lost in addition 800 men made pris
oner.
Along the Chemin des Danes the
Germans west of Cerny Saturday
night, after heavy artillery prepara-
ton, threw heavy forces against the
French line. The battle waged back
and forth throughout the night, but
although the Germans broke through
the French line at several points, day.
light saw them completely evicted
from front line trenches about. 500
yards in length. The Berlin war of.
flee claims the capture of $50 pris-
oners in the fighting.
~ lOods lIaa,s Saws.
Although rain and swollen streams
are initiating against the fast contin-
uation of the Russian offensive in
Galicia, the troops of General Bruss-
loft nevertheless have driven the Aus
trians from positions southwest ofl
kalusZ and taken more than a thou
sand prisoners and a number of guns. |
Apparently the Austro-German lines
are stiffening with the result of the |
arrival of reinforcement, for Petro-
grad records the repulse of them
along the Dobrovdnany-N Novica front
and says the enemy has gone on the
offensive along the Lomnica river
near Perdehinsko and is stubbornlyl

able that Rumania again may soon
become an important theater in the
war as the Berlin official communica-

activity at various points is
noticeable.

While the political situation in Ger
