THE EUROPEAN WAR
The year 1915 lias beon so distinc
tive from a history making viewpoint
clif.t in all the ages to come it will
si?;id apart from those that have pre
ceded it and i;om those which are
to follow. During its entire length,
the greater .nations of the European
cor.tinent have a.iKionod themselves
to a policy of bloodshed which has

it h:.s been (he complete overthrow of
all Ahe pacific theories which hnd ap-
parently gained" so strong a foothold
at the time of the firing of the first
gun in the present conflict.
At the beginning of the year, it was
evident that it was to be a struggle
to the death. It was plain that the
Teutonic plan to force a speedy set
lenient by dint of superior armed
preparedness had failed. Six months
had elapsed and the Teutonic allies
were still faced bv thre great na
tions, their strength unbroken and
their determination inflexible. - Aus- capital of Russian Poland,

combination showed no sign of weak- the allies. The French drive in Cham
ening, and a war of attrition seemed pagne was one of the bloodiest at
inevitabie. Both in the east and tempts yet made to pierce the German

The fighting in Poland had resolved the whole of the first German line.
f itself into a complete deadlock. In
January, the French-English combine
made three attempts to break the
Teutonic hold on "French territory, but
accomplished little. The German un-
successful drive at Warsaw and the
rout of the Austrians in Galicia left a
slight balance in the January fighting
in lavcr of the allies. ;
From a strictly military viewpoint,
February was a pi, nising month for !
the Teutonic allies. By the middle of
the month, German troops were ad-
vancing all along the front from
the Vistula to tne Niemen, and thus,
seven months after the breaking out
of the war, German soil was practi-
cally cleared of ita Russian invaders.
The deaalock on the western front
was still ULorokeE.
Scene Shifts to Dardanelles.
With the advent of March, there
came a sudden arid dramatic change
in the war situation. The scene of
military activity was shifted to the
Dardanelles. By the third week of
the month, Rome, Athens, Sofia and
Bucharest were centers of greatpo
liticai activity. The surrender of
Przemysl, Inarch 22, wp.s the most
stirring victory for the allies since the
battle of the Marne. The German
assertion that the military power of
ilussia had dwindled into insignifi
cance was disproved at once and the
allied cause gained instant strength in
ail the neutral capitals. One of the
greatest strongholds in Europe had
been taken by the Russians.
The disaster to trie allied fleet at
the Dardanelles, which occurred dur
ing the third week of March, put an
end to the expectation of forcing the
straits by naval means alone. Ger
man prestige advanced perceptibly
and tne difficulty of the task un dor
taken oy the allied vieet was now un
derstood. In this month, a". so, the
British wron the oattie of Neuve
Chapelle after a bloody fight.
In April the French made a bold
offensive stroke against the German
Dosition between the Meuse and the
Moselle the famous St. Mihiel wedge
which resulted in a tremendous loss
of men on both sides, with small a
vantage for either. Nowhere had .he
allies made appreciable gain in ter
ritory. The invader held his own
stubbornly and with success. About
the middle' of the month, Zeppelins
made their appearance over English
towns, inspiring great interest and not
a little apprehension, but doing com
paratively small damage. About this
time, also, the attempted submarine
blockade of the British coast proved
to be ineffective. In the closing days
of the month another great Teutonic
offensive swept against the allied lines
in Belgium, thrusting the enemy, back
upon Ypres, with great loss of life on
both sides.
In May the Germans sent their best
troops to the aid of the hard
pressed Austrians.. By the middle of
the mantli 'they had worked,a Btar
!tling change In-the situation. Prze
mysl was retaken, the Russian cam-
ANQOIHER
aign in Galicia was shattered and
Me czar's armies were soon back
where they- started out in the previous
September. Rusjiia had suffered the
greatest disaster i.i the war. A new
Germany military here had been re
vealed in the person of Mackensen,
who was now held with Hindenburg
in popular esteem.

Fall of Warsaw.
. The campaign in the West was
strangely quiescent.. The allies kept
to their trenches and the outside world
wondered. Up to June 15 there was no
claim of progress by the allies. The
Teutonic cir.ira that its side was still
engaged in successful warfare on all
fror.ts was not disputed. The splendid
resistance interposed by the discred
ited Turks came as a surprise to the
world. Russia was. unable to rally her
badly demoralized forces to make a
winning defense of Lemberg. Once
that point had fall:n, Warsaw became
the main objective.. It was not until
August 6 ithat German troopa made
their triumphal entry into Warsaw,
Nearlv 20.000 German prisoners were
captured, and upward of a hundred
field guns, thus far the greatest single
capture by the French during the war.
But the Germans were not compelled
to relinquish any great amount Of ter-
ritory. In Artois the allies did not suc-
cee(j in breaking through the German
lines, but secured some coveted posi-
tions att an appalling cost.
This brief period of allied success
was followed by an unexpected turn
ol political affairs in the Balkans. For
a second time the Greek king showed
his lack of sympathy with the allies,
in the springy he had prevented Veni-'
zelos, his premier, an avowed sup-
porter of the allies, from sending
troops to the Dardanelles. Now, when
the allies were depending upon the
Greeks to hold thcBulgarians in check,
Constantine declined again to act.
Serbia Is Overrun.
Eulgaria announced her intention to
cast her lot with the central powers
and the latter opened a campaign hav
ing Turkish relief for its apparent ob
jective. On October 10 the Germans
crossed the Danube and proceeded to
advance southward, every step contest
ed furiously by the outnumbered
Serbs. France, England and Italy de
clared war on Eulgaria. All at once
the center of military activity was
transferred t" the Balkans.
In November both the long-expected
allied offensive in the West and the
Teutonic drive in 'the East came prac- j
tically to an end. The allies failed to
break the stubborn German lines and
only achieved a possible moderate
success in Champagne and Artois at
tremendous cost. By the middle of the
month military operations in Russia
were practically at a standstill, the
Germans having failed to accomplish
the object of their campaign. At that
time the big Germatndrive to the Gold
en Horn began to monopolize the at
tention of the public. The preliminary
invasion of Serbia cy the Teutonic al
lies now i::u!'tt-ing Bulgaria was be
gun with note'::'.) promptness. In fact,
as early as October 27, the invading
armies met in the northeastern part of
the kingdom, by November 1 Kragu
yevatz, the chief Serbian arsenal, had
fallen, and by November 6 the Bulga
rians were in Ni:?h, Serbia's provi
sional capital and railroad center. By
November 19 it was announced that
the invading armies held four-fifths of
Serbia, and toward the close of the j
month Germany declared semiofficially j
that the campaign was over. By tfie ;
middle of Decembrthe Franco-British
forces had been driven out of, Serbia,
j They fell back to Saloniki, which, with
. the consent of Greece, they prepared
to defend.
Since May 24, when the Italian army
crossed the Austrian frontier,the fight
ing has been continuous, especially
along the Isonzo front. The strongly
fortified and stubbornly defended town
of Goritz Tas the Italian objective for
weekru in October the Austrian aero
planes dropped bombs upon Venice,
j destroying"; art eperfmens and'damae-
ing a church. The Italian liner An
fona. bound for New .York, was sunk
by a submarine flying the Austrian
flag on NoTemher 9. More than a hun-
dred passengers were killed, including
made a yigorous demand on Austria to
disarow the act and punish the com
mander of the submarine.
On December lf the British war of
fice announced that Gen. Sir Douglas
H&ig had superseded Field Marshal
Sir John French as British commander
in France and Flanders.
