London. Sept. 2s,-~Allied forces, involving the troops of seven nations. are attacking successfully on five fronts. They gre engaged w:sA. .l.res of the four Central Powers. in aadi- tion to the Russian BOlshoviki. Tho active fronts gre in France. Macedon. ia, Palestine, northern Russia and southern Russia. Fighting on the Ital. ian front is still desultorv. but has increased perceptibly within the last week. There is also increasing aotiv. fly in Albania, indicating the possi. hility of the Macedonian drive spread. ing to that region and involving tho Austrians holding the line there.
 Fighting on the west front still centers about the Hindenburg line de. lenses between Camhrai and St Quentin today. The British this morn ing drove forward on a three-mils front between these two cities, appar. ently seeking to capture the impor- tant railway junction of LeCatelet, one of the hastions of the Hindenhurr line, and destroy direct communiea- ticn between Cambrai and St. Quen- tin.
 Bulgars Forced Back.
 South of St. Quentin, the French were pushing eastward from the vil- lage of Benay and gradually showing their lines past the city.
 The German war office today ad- mitted the loss of Essigny-le-Grand. just north of Benay, It also admitted a French success between the Aisne and the AiIette, where the poilus have gained a footing on the high ridge west of Jouy and south of Anizy-le- Chateau.
 The Americans repulsed two heavy raids against their right flank on the Metz front, just west of the Moselle river, this morning.
 In Macedonia, the Allies are now pursuing the Bulgarians on a 70-miie front, between Monastir and Lake Doiran. An additional advance of ten miles was made yesterday, resulting in the capture of ten villages. The Allies are threatening to cut the Us. kub-S -Salonilxa railway. which supplies the Bulgarians in the Lake Doiran region, and also are threatening the city of Prilip, northeast of Monastir. Serbian, British, French. Italian and Greek troops are engaged in this drive.
 Bolshevik Defeated.
 To the westward, Italian forces are harassing the Austrian lines in AL bania by raiding operations,
 The Anglo-French drive in paes- tine begun Wednesday, is proceeding over a front of about fifty miles, be- tween the Mediterranean sea and the Jordan river. Reports indicate that the Turks have been heavily defeated and losing many prisoners.
 Allied forces in northern Russia have sunk two additional Bolshevik steamers on the Dvina river In feel- ing their way southward the Czecho. Slovaks are overcoming all opposi. tion.
 The Boishevik forces in both the Arehangel and Murman districts arc led by German officers. In southern Russia, Czecho-Slovak troops have signally defeated the Bolshevik near Tsaritsin, on the west bank of the Volga, about 27b miles from it's mouth. The Czecho- Slovak line in European Russia apparently extends from Ekaterinburg westward to the Volga, at Kazan, southward along the west bank of the river to Tzaritsin, thence westward to the Black Sea, at Nikolaietf.
