Germans have pushed back the Brit
ish several hundred yards north OF
Steenwerck.
On the center of the battle front
between Estaires. Lestrem and Eoisns
there has been bitter fighting. Along
the river Lave, between Lestrem and
Loisne the Germans made ineesssnt
attacks only to be repulsed with
severe loss by the Fifty-tirst division.
These troops then attacked and drove
the enemy from positions he had
gained previously. North OF Estaires
the British have been driven back
somewhat but the town lie still held
by Field Marshal Hsia.
On the Picardy battlefield there has
been no change in the situation. The
British front is quiet and the French
have repulsed two German attacks
in the region Of Noyon. North OF
Montdidier and around Lassiany the
artillery fire has been violent. The
German advance in the Coucy region
has halted.
American marines have landed in
VladivostoIS with the British and
Japanese and their presence is ex-
pected to have q reassuriua effect on

situation at Vladivostok more calm

sound London and Paris on the

have been scattered to other military
posts all over the country, assigned
TO units which will see foreign serv-
ice long before the S8th division, at

were sent to Camp Upton at Yap-
hank. Mike O'Dowd OF st. Paul.
amiddleweight champion. was one Of
them. Transfers of similar magni-
tude were made from other regiments

portion of the veterans who were
sent here last fall and who had
reached a relatively high grade Of
draining.
Division to Remain Months.
Z Very few Of the veterans" with
Fthe exception Of uon-commissioned
officers. still remain at Camp Dodge.
