Progress of The War


Despite its thunderous threats with
the big guns and the hardly less thun.
derous threats of braggarts at home
Germany has not. yet begun a sus-
tanned offensive on the western front,
It is not to be assumed that the drive
has been called off. There have been
several causes of delay. One of them
probably was General Byng's unex-
pected drive to Cambria. 1t disor-
ganized the Germans by compelling
them to utilize reserves which they
had intended for their own offensive.
To obtain additional reserves Ger
many is calling back more men from
the Russian front, where negotiations
with the Bolsheviki are proceeding
apace. The Bolsheviki have pro-
claimed their intention to insist that
no Teuton troops shall be sent to the
front in France and Flanders. but
this is camoufage. Already hun
dreds of thousands have been trans
ported to the west, and the Bolshe-
Wiki are fastening the negotiations
in order to facilitate the movement
of other German troops. They are
further assisting the Germans by
permitting the sale of foodstuffs
sorely needed by the starving Rus
slams.
1t may be presumptuous to predict
that the Bolsheviki will try to force
Russia into a war against the Allies.
but we are inclined to think that the
only thing that restraints them is the
fear that they may need all their
forces to combat counter-revolutions.
A few days ago Generals Kaledines,
Korniloff and Dutoff. leading the
Cossacks, began to make head against
the Bolsheviki in eastern and south
ern provinces of European Russia.
General Dutoff threw his soldiers
across the trans-Siberian railway
near the Siberian border, while Kale-
dimes and Korniloff attacked Bolshe-
Wiki contingents in several towns.
Reports concerning the battles are
obscure. but it is evident that each
side won victories and met with re-
verses. On the whole, the counter
revolution does not appear to have
shown much strength. but the re-
ports from Petrograd must be taken
with reserve.
The Bolsheviki are probably re-
ceiving the trained aid of German
officers and even of German troops
posing IS Russians. If Kaledines and
Kornilof are defeated, the German
army officers in Russia are apt to at.

that they may seek to restore the

are bombarding positions far behind
the front Italian lines.
After the giant drive which netted
them $1,000 prisoners and caused
the bulge in the Italian line to col
lapse near Asiago. the Austro-Ger-
man forces attacked eastward Of
Asiago between the Piave and Brenta.
After suffering heavy losses they
gained a number of positions in the
forward defense zone of the Italians
Within the last few days they have
shifted their attack still farther to
the eastward and have made some
gains. especially at Col di Beretta.
northwest of Monte Grappa. which
is the chief mountain stronghold in
that region. Apparently the leu
tons have not yet attacked any part
of the line held by the British and
French. Airmen of the Italian, Bri-
fish and French armies appear to
have assisted n another in the re-
connoissances and to have maintained
superiority.
Weather conditions changed con-
siderably in the last week. Snow
fell in the mountains. impeding the
Teutonic transport. The melting
snow filled the Pave river, which
had become almost dry, and this rem
dered the Italian defense in the flood
ed regions near Venice more secure.
AT the northern end of the flooded
section the Teutons attacked a bridge
head held by the Romans at Capo
Sile. They overwhelmed the small
garrison and occupied the position.
The Italians awaited the night and
then sent a brigade to recover the
bridgehead, which was important to
them, because it guarded one of the
most vulnerable canal approaches to
Venice. Scouts who crept forward
found the Austro-H ungarians asleep.
Selling this favorable opportunity
the brigade attacked. They rushed
suddenly in among the confused
Austro-H ungarians and brief hand
to-hand struggle ensued. All of the
enemy force was either killed or cap
tured.
One of the most remarkable naval
feats of the war was performed by
two Italian ~destroyers. In some
mysterious fashon-probably as the
result of information furnished by
spies-they passed the mine-field and
distractions guarding Triest harbol
and attacked a squadron of battle
ships, sinking two with torpedoes. A
tremendous fire was opened upor

publication of the little article a few
days ago in which, | most sincerely

he very gentlemanly replied in very
brief letter, in which he says he will
