On Every Front There Is Re-
newed Activity, Especially
Artillery.
RUSSIANS HOLD ADVANTAGE
Enemy Attacks on the Italians
Are Repulsed, According
to Paris.
By Associated Press

With the Russians holding their
gains in Galicia against Austro Ger
man attacks the indications of strong
er activity In the other war theaters
are multiplying.
on the western front the British
have advanced and the French artil-
lery is active from north of the Aisne
to the Meuse, the artillery activity
has increased on the entire Austro-
Italian front; there has been greater
local activity in Rumania and on the
Macedonian front. The Germans have
taken the offensive on small sector.
Enemy Beaten OFF.
Around Br2eZany and near Lipnica-
dolna, on the Narayuvka north Of
Brzezany. the Austro- Germans have
attacked the Russians in attempts to
regain the territory lost early in the
week. Their efforts against Russian
advanced posts east OF BrzeZany were
checked by the Russian artillery fire
and two attacks near Lipnicadolna
were broken up.
Further south along the Hungarian
Rumanian border and in Rumania,
where there has been no violent fight
ing since the cessation of Field Mar
shal Won Mackensen's drive last fall.
btliNiNy i'P'i A'bs
have been reports recently that the
Rumanian army, re-equipped and re-
formed. was ready to assume the of
fensive and 1t is probable they are to
follow in the path of their Russian
neighbors.
In an attack against the German
lines southwest of Hollebeke In Flan-
ders along the Ypres canal and on
the northern end OF the recent Brit
ish advance against the Messines
ridge, Field Marshal Haig's troops
have driven the Germans back on a
front OF six hundred yards,
Major-General Maurice of the Brit
ish army declared Thursday that the
British army in France had not lost
a gun since April, 1915, and that
since the beginning of the war tno
British had captured 739 guns and
lost only 1913, OF which 81 were cap
tured.
Prince Has Enough.
The German crown prince has not
repeated his attacks in Champagne
and the French still cling to the pre-
dominating positions on the front.
Meanwhile the artilleries are engaged
violently from northeast of scissors
to near Verdun.
Two strong enemy columns have
attacked the right wing OF the Italian
army in Macedonia. These efforts.
Paris reports, were repulsed. on this
front as well as on the Austro- Italian
front the artilleries have been busy.

EXPORTS OF GOLD TO
Japan ARE RESUMED

Gold exports 10 japan have been re-
sumed after lapse of about two
months. The local Sub-Treasury yes
terdsy transferred $l,500,000 to San
Francisco, and that amount Of the
metal will go forward TO japan by the
next steamer. The Yokohama Specie
Bank is the shipper.
The previous large movement OF goIo
TO japan ceased in November, following
the sale by the British Treasury Of
$50 .OoO. OOe Of its short term bills TO
Japanese investors. The transaction
involved the transfer to British ac-
count Of $50 1000, 900 Of New York bank
ing funds accumulated here by Japa-
nese commercial interests.
Bankers said yesterday that Japan
exporters are again accommodating large
balances here in the course Of trade
interchanges between the two coun-
tries, and further gold exports might
be expected from this time on, pro-
vided, Of course, that the British gov
eminent does not again arrange TO
make use OF the funds by another loan
in Japan.
