The British Fourth and French First
and Fifth armies maintain their pres
sure, from Albert to Ribeeourt and, al
/ though General Won Der Marwitz ant
General Ven Hutier are profiting to the
fullest possible extent from the ole
Somme lines, along which parts of the
battle front now run, their armies are
daily smitten by the allies heavy ar
tillery.
Almost third of the German divis.
ions identified on this front are from
General Won 1udendorff's previously
guarded reserves. Despite the high
commands recent order to conserve
man power to the limit, no alternative
was open but to throw every available
man, including orderlies, cooks and
Officers servants into the line to slow
down the allies advance or perish.
But for the desperate measures ap-
piled to secure at least temporary re-
lief far greater disaster would have
closed in upon the Germans and every
thing west of the Somme and the No
yon canal would have fallen.
Today the Germans along their new
battle front are supplied entirely from
across bridges spanning the waterways.
The bridges are now under allied shell
fire and airplanes bomb them day and
night, Some are already destroyed and
others cannot be used save at fearful
risk.
1t is a question whether General Lu-
dendorff will leave his second and
eighteenth armies supported only by
a sprinkling of artillery or whether he
will mass his guns behind his infantry
exposing the whole to allied destruc-
tion.
He must do one or the other. If he
moves the bulk of his artillery to the
east bank of the Somme, his guns will
be unable to reach the allied lines cf-
fectively. If he keeps them west of the
Somme, which wrigges through a wide
valley of lagoons and marshes, the dan
ger to them is obvious.
The Germans are now fighting stout
ly whenever they are attacked, but
comparative quiet continues on this
front. Having gone back across the An
ere, they cut the dykes of the stfeam,
flooding the valley in places as a fur
ther protection.

FROM PETROGRAD

Search of the Foreign Office archives has afforded some very interesting reading. We now learn that Russia under the late Czar had arranged a secret treaty With Germany which practically abolished the provis- ions of Russia's treaty with the French.
 The person most respGn slble for the tre lcherJ was the slimy but able Won Tschirsky, who was the Hun Foreign Min istar at the time and in August, 1914, was the KaiSar's Am pas sad or at Vienna.
 Won Tschirs y had ! hand in framing Austria ; uIt imatum to Sarvia, and ii was  proba hly his secret expo ct2tion that Russia would not fight that influenced him in hlving the terms of that document >s stiffen- ed.
 New light is a7}ila ble, too, on the lace monarcl J's curious tolerance of Constantine of Greece and it's support of that traitor in his refusal U particip- ate in the Dardanelles attack.
 The Czar's Foreign Minister, Sazenoff, indee d, stipulated, that should Greece go init would be against Russia's wishes If she did) the Greek troops, in the ev- ent of victory, were not to be al lowed near Constantinople.
 Incidentally, the Russian Gov ernment advices make it tolerab ly clear that the Gallipoli vent ure was never nearer success than at the time of the evacuat- ion. Russia knew that the Turkish Government thought the situation so desperate that it was preparing to bolt with al it's papers, harems, and other valuables to Asia Minor.
