BATTLE CONTINUES
ALONG WHOLE LIKE
From Sea to Vosges Intensity
of Struggle Exceeds All
Events of War.
Paris. A general battle has been
proceeding along the whole front from
the sea to the Vosges Mountains for
the past three days without the Ger
mans having been able to find a weak
spot In the French defenses.
However, It still la In Klanders that
Interest In the formidable and seem
ingly Interminable battle centers. The
Germans are concentrating there all
the men they can get and ceaselessly
are hurling them against the allies'
lines. Never has this method been
directed with as much tenacity and
fury as now,
It Is the British who bear the brunt
of those onslaughts. In many places
their lines have become so thin, says
an officer who baa been In that region
the past fortnight, that only by show
ing obstinacy worthy of the traditions
of Waterloo are they able to bold their
ground.
Their losses In officers have been
terrible. One battalion of foot guards
went into action commanded by a non
commissioned officer. Certain caval
ry regiments have lost half their ef
fective strength.
The fight rages with the greatest
Intensity south of Ypres on the Manln
road, the Ypres Canal, the Lys and
the plateau crossed by the road from
Ypres to Annentleres. Here the of
fensive by the nlllee has been met by
violent counter attacks delivered by
a German active army corps Just
brought from Klanders, supported by
the concentrated fire of a great body
of massed batteries.
The Germans so far are said to have
achieved nothing more than tempor
ary checks, nnd It Is claimed that
slowly but surely the allies creep for
ward. BERLIN COUNTS ON VICTORY
3,000,000 Germans and Austrian.
Reported Ready to Crush Enemy.
London. "It Is asaerted In Berlin
that Germany nnd Austria-Hungary
now have concentrated about 3,000,000
soldiers on the line from Thorn to
Cracow, nnd this Is considered suffi
cient to crush tho Russian forces,"
saya a dispatch from- Copenhagen to
the Times. The message continues:
"Military authorities declare that
the result of tho coming battle Is not
In doubt and that the Russian army
will be completely destroyed. They
explain that it Is necessary to allow
the, Russians to advance to the fron
tier. In order to prevent them from
making a good retreat' after their de
feat "The present retirement of the Ger
mans Is necessary, they say, in order
to have the railways Immediately be
hind the army for the approaching
main battle."

RUSSIANS GROSSING .
PRUSSIAN FRONTIER
Petrograd. The official statement
Issued from general headquarters
says:
"On the Eastern Prussian frontier
our troops have dislodged the Ger
mans from the region of Wirbnllen,
which waB strongly fortified, and have
progressed as far ns Stulluponen (16
miles oast-northeast of Gunibien). In
the region of Romlnten forest and
Lyck our troops continue to press on
tho heels of the rear guards of the
enemy.
"On the left bank of the VUtula our
cavalry has penetrated German terri
tory, damaging the railway near
Pleachen station, to the northwest of
Knllsz.
"In Gallcla our troops are continu
ing their offensive movement. In the
latest engagements on the San River
we captured 125 officers and 12,000
soldiers, as well as rapid-ftrers and
munitions of war. South of Frzemysl,
on November 6, we took more than
1000 prisonors."
The rapidity of the movement on
the battlefields in Poland have been
unequaled since the days of Napoleon.
Deducting the time spent in actual
fighting the Russian pursuit has been
pressed for more than a week at a
rate averaging 14 miles a day over the
Polish roads, which are heavy after
the rainy season.
