from nearly all European battle fronts
spirited lighting is taking place in
several war areas.
The most notable recent derelop
ment is on the northern end of the
Rumanian line where the Russians
took the offensive on Saturday and
broke through the Austro-German
lines on a two-mile front. Efforts
have been made by the Russians, after
heavy artillery fire, to advance furth
er in this region, but according to to
day's German official statement, the
Russian forces are unable to make
any progress.
The Russians also are on the offen
sive in the Zlota- Lipa region in Ga
licia, where their campaign for Lem
berg paused some months ago. Ber
lin declares that the Turkish troops
have beaten off the assault made by
strong masses of Russians.
The French-Belgian front also is
breaking out into activity at many
points.
Berlin reports persistent efforts by
the French to recapture their lost po
sition at hill 304 northwest of Ver
dun. A surprise attack that failed
was followed by three others, but
these, are declared-to hayejbeenbrok-;
