Except ini the Balkans, which best opinion repeatedly says is at moit a "side-,show," both the initiative and the offensive have rested during the, week withi the tntente Alles. lThere have been actions near Lille, near Arra, east of Rheims and between Verdun and Nancy on t.he Western front begun by the. French. The Ger- mans attacked in the Champagne without success, but the Fiench determined the. nature of the fighting and i- ways had the upper hand. Italian troops were succeseful both in odnsv and defensive actions. Near Riga and Dvinsk and in other sectors f ar to the aouth on the 1,000-mile Eastern front, the. Czar's troops were "'nib- bling" with some success; at ail events showing the enemy that to reduce his force there for the benfit cf. the Balkan front was a mistaken policy. In the Serbian campaign thTeutons and Bulgarians were'sucesalul, but not continuously so, in the north. They aiso occupied Nîslh and reoccupied Veles. But'French and British troops were winning ground as rapidly as theur strength and transport would allow. In the Baltic British'sub- marines were' "top-dog." In the Mediterraneaar the civilized world had one more objective leason in the flun campaign cf murder on the high sese with the sinking of the Italian liner "Ancona," scores ef women and child- ren being drowned. Unofficial reports told of two German submarines which had accounted for several amail Allied ships, near Gibraltar, themaelves being sunk. Shaded portions cf the map illustrate the diminutive sec- tion of Central Europe which remains neutral. ON£ MN BATILFS MNWARTM A LONDON 'BUS DRIVER iCAP- TURED FIVE UHLANS.
