BATTLE OF ARRAS
BREAKS OUT anew
IN TERRIFIC FURY
English Forces Capture Two
Towns and More Than Thou
sand Prisoners As They
Smash Enemy Front.
FIGHT LASTS ALL NIGHT
cne of Heaviest Engagements
Of Entire War in Progress
Where Haig Strikes.
BERLIN SAYS "ALL's WELL

From q STAFF Correspondent Of The Asso-
ciated Press.)
With the British Armies in France
(Via London), April 25.-The battle
of Arras. which had been smouldering
for a week past, burst into flaming
fury again today and is still raging
tonight with some of the heaviest
fighting of the war in progress.
The sky is alight for miles with the
flashing of guns and with vari-colored
rockets, which flash signals to the op-
posing artillery. The cold east wind
carries the echoes of the cannonade
far back of the British lines.
Take More Than 1000 Prisoners.
The fighting today covered an
cight-mile front, from south OF the
Vimy ridge to a point well below
Croisilles. At the north end of the at
tack the British swept over German
fixed positions running almost due
south from Lens and captured long
sections Of German positions in front
of the Hindenburg line and great
number of prisoners.
More than 1000 prisoners were
counted in this sector late today and
others were still coming in. The
largest number of prisoners was from
the 14lst Pomeranians, who surren-
dered in hundreds after very brief re-
sistance. A battery of field guns also
was taken.
Cling to Slopes of Hill.
Between Gavrelle and Croisilles,
the heaviest fighting occurred along
both banks of the Scarpe and around
Monchy-Le-Preux, where the British
Easter advance had projected sharp
salient into the German lines.
Monchy was taken in the first phase
Of the Arras battle after three days
lighting and has been held against
desperate counter-assaults. ss4
The Germans always managed to
cling to the slopes onS either side of
tie hill on Which Moncfly- Ee- Preux
IS perched, this being the highest
point east Of Arras and Vimy, over
looking the great broad eastern plains
of northern France.
The Germans today were undoubt-
edly throwing their full force into
their resistance along the Scarpe.
They had brought up strong reserves
to oppose a further British advance
and had thrown in scores of new bat
teries of artillery.
Berlin Says Offensive Fails.
Berlin (Via London), April 25.-
The new British offensive on the Ar
ras was repulsed today with heavy
loss to the attackers, according to the
official communication issued by the
war Office this evening.

sWEDES SHOUT REPUBLIC
AUSTRIA REMAINS SILENT
swEDEs SHOUT REPUBLIC

A pail of silence has fallen over the
central empires. This serves to ac-
centuate the reports of grave internal
troubles.
In spite OF the assertions of the
German press that the great Berlin
strike, which involved 100000 work.
ers, is over, there is evidence that
the agitation continues.
The Berlin Tageblatt admits that
the members of two of the munition
workers unions have refused to re-
turn to work and says that those who
persist in their~refusal will be called
to the colors, \
The meager light which Sits
through the veil of the German CEN
sorship disappears entirely in the case
of Austria. Following persistent re-
ports that Count Tisza, premier of
Hungary and foremost exponent in
the dual monarchy of the German
idea, had resigned all information as
to conditions in Vienna or Budapest
ceased.
Use Infiammatory Language.
One thing that appears certain is
that the socialists and radicals i'll
both empires have recently drawn
much closer together and that inAam-
matory language is being used with
an impunity uncomfortable in the ear
lier days Of the war.
In the meantime the revolutionary
spirit which is rampant throughout
Europe has given a sensational dem
onstration in Sweden. The food sit
uation is ostensibly the cause of the
remarkable events in Stockholm,
where a great multitude of workers
tried to force their way into the Par
lament building.
The fact that there were unrebnked
.sifotts for a'republic and that the
ominous word revolution" was freely
used gives another aspect to the af-
fair. The royal castle is under guard |
and more serious outbreaks are pre-
dicted for May |.
Meanwhile the armies of the Brit
ish and French democracies are mass
ing their guns and shells for another
thrust against the German lines in
France. The general opinion in the
allied capitals is that General Haig
is about to make another great eff
fort to smash his way through to
Cambria and Douai
Blow Aimed at Sultan.
Pending these developments public
interest has been keenly aroused by
the cryptic words Of Lord Curzon,
of the British war council:
Keep your eye on Mesopotamia."
The uninterrupted successes of the
British forces in the valley of the
Tigris, who are now eighty miles
north of Bagdad, have given rise to
the hope that Lord Curzon's words
are prediction of some overwhelm-
ing blow against the shattered forces
Of the sultan.
The main Turkish forces are at
present practically surrounded by the
British and Russian armies and their
only road of retreat lies across an
almost impossible desert
