England were shot down. The posi-
tive destruction of at least four OF
these is known to have been effected.
The bombs that were dropped from
the enemy aircraft killed twelve per-
sons and wounded thirty-six others.
The British are said to have lost seven
machines during this engagement.
Fifteen vessels of 1000 tons and
over, three under 1900 tons and five
fishing vessels were the total losses
by the Allies last week from German
submarines and mines.
From a point where the French
and Belgian fronts join and reaching
to the North Sea the forces of the
Allies and the Germans are engaged
in violent artillery duels. To the
east of Arras and on the north bank
of the Scarpe River the British have
captured trenches from the Germans
over front of about mile and took
100 prisoners, which was announced
yesterday. The fighting, if possible.
is said to be growing more intense.
With but one exception, the Ger
mans are said to have been repulsed
with heavy casualties in each of their
drives made yesterday. They are
heavily reinforcing their lines with
their best troops drawn from other
points. The Austrians have during
the past several days made violent
attacks on the Austro-Italian frontier
and yesterday caused the Italians to
yield ground south of Jamiana, which
lies a short distance from the head
of the Gulf of Trieste. An offic;a!
Vienna report claims the capture of
271 Italian officers and $500 men
during this engagement. All along
this front there is heavy Smelling on
the part of both armies.

The Situation Reviewed.
From Tuesdays Shreveport Caucasian.


From indications on the western
front, the Germans are massing their
best troops to resist the steady adj
vance of the British and French
forces. The struggle for supremacy
is terrific. The Germans have sac
rificed and are sacrificing thousands
of men in the hope Of forcing the
Allies from their positions. On Sun
day the Germans in tremendous
force assaulted the French line west
of Froudmont Farm, which they he'd
until Monday, when they were driven
back by the French. Every inch of
ground is being contested.
The Germans are given little rest.
Day and night they are kept in sus-
pense, not knowing where the rcyt
blow will be struck. The British
have been successful in every attack
on the German trenches. The Ger
man Grown Prince has failed in his
assaults on the French line. In his
repulse he lost many killed and some
prisoners.
1t has been reported that the strug-
gle between the Germans and the
Canadians has reached the stare
where no prisoners are taken. As
the story runs, the Canadians have a
grievance which they are avenging
remorselessly. As the German atroc-
tiles are on the increase, it will not
be surprising if the war should reach
the point of desperation when no
quarter will be given and none asked.
If it be true that the Germans have
been guilty of the crimes charged
against them, the assulting and mas
sacre of women and girls and children
and their aged deliberately, there will
some speedily a war of determination.
This will be the result of the Ger
mans defiance of every rule of what
is termed civilized warfare.
The arrival of Ambassador Root in
Petrograd is operating favorably.
His presence is having a good effect
and promises to lead to the recon
Citation of the various contending
factions. Although the Russian stu
alton is very confused, there appears
to be a clearing of the clouds which
threatened complications with the
Germans that would be detrimental
to thf interests and the success of the
Allies.
The Italians have scored another
success which, if not very important,
is nevertheless encouraging, as they
gradually advance on Trieste.
