Aeld marshal holds his present plan of
campaign to bo of such vltnl importance
that all regard for the cost In human

' For the time being flanking operations

of the long battle front It is now a

troops and supplies can bo moved,
"Nid flvo tones of action ore located on
the" line which now extends In the form
of a vast semicircle. They lie, roughly
Speaking, as follows:
Southeast of Mlawa, In the Vistula
allny north of Lowicz, along tho tlzura
valley, southwest of I'lotrokow and
around Cracow, In Gallcln, to which point
the Germans arc constantly sending such
reinforcements ns they can sparo from
tho campaign In East Prussia and north
ern Poland.
The Gorman efforts In western Poland
to roll back the Russians and rollevo tho
aro,nd Vpres, the Allies were able to
make progress In the direction of the
enemy'n trenches at several points. At
every other point on the battle front,
from the sea to the Swiss border, at
-allien the Allies attempted the offensive
they mada appreciable gains.
Particularly notable was the advance
In the Argonne. where Ihe French pushed
forward several of their Intrenched po
sitions afler repelling German attacks;
In the forest of La Pretre, where prog
ress wns continued and emphatic, and
south of Thann. In AUace, where the
railway station of Aspadh, 10 miles west

French,
Artillery duels were fought In tho Ar
ras region and about Juvlncourt, north
of the Alsnoi In (ho vicinity of Varenncs,
nlong- the heights of the MeUse, and In
the Vosges passes, Everywhere the
French nuns continue to demonstrate
their superiority over the Germans.
Along the centre tho battle continues
to show all the characteristics of a siege
with both sides living in dugouts behind
their" trenches while tho opposing artil
lery struggles for mastery.
Northwest of Verdun the fighting har
surged backward and forward across the
Alsno lllver under conditions which are
slightly similar to those prevailing along
tho Yser in Bclslum.

TWOFOLD WARSAW DRIVE
REPULSED BY DEFENDERS
Germans Beaten Back in Lodz Ad
vance and Stroke From North.
LONDON, Dec. 12.
Of the Ave Austro-Qerman columns
fhlch for soma days appeared to be mak
ing steady progress In their Invasion of
Poland three have suffered checks, ac
cording to last night's ofllclal report from
Russian headquarters.
Tho column which was making a down--ward
stroko from Mlawn, on the East
Prussian frontior, and which was reported
In one dispatch from Pvtrogrnd tof b
within IS miles of. Warsaw, after an
ncrgetlc offensive was repulsed, and un
der counter attacks from the Russians
was compelled to retire at somo points.
The attacks of the main German
poc -column, which had Its front on the lino
ern between Lodz and Lowicz and which
alls.enme down diagonally from Thorn,
3erc delivered With great force, but
"octro, according to the Russian account.
. poctculsed with heavy losses to tha ln-
v-V-jrs.
Trtiit the .Germans laid great store on
the success of their attacks here Is shown
by the fact thnt during the two days
they faced the Russian trenches seven
times and were driven back by a mur
derous fire. ,
Tho other column which has suffered
Is that composed of German and Aus
trian troops, which has been trying to
outflank the Russian left south of
Crarow. In thla enso It waa the 15uh-
lans who assumed the offensive, and
they claim that after a tenaclou resistance
they defeated the Germans, taklntf sev
raU guns and 2000 prisoners.
Of the German column operating In
the region of Petrokow and that advanc
ing from Czcnstochowu there Is no news
except the Russian statement that "on
the other parts of the front there have
Veen no substantial changes."

The German troops .n Flanders havo

land Islands December 8. when the Ger
man cruiser squadron commandod by Ad
miral Count von Spee was defeated by
n nrltlsh squadron under Vice Admiral
Sir Frederick Dovrtoit Sturda The lo..s
of the cruisers Scharnhorst, Gnelscnau
and Leipzig Is conceded by the Germans
and little hope Is held out that the
cruisers Dresden and Nurnberg cOuld long
evade capture. The statement reads:
"Regarding tho naval battle off the
Falkland Islands, It transpires that our
cruiser squadron, soon after the battle
with Sir Christopher Cradock's ships off
Coronel, put Into tho harbor of .Santiago
de Chill and left there after a stay of
icss man zi nours ror an unknown des
tination. It Ie assumed that the squadron
steamed southward to seek the British
battleship Canopus and tho light cruiser
Glasgow.
"Meanwhile, It appears from the English
nowspapors, a very strong British squad
ron was dlspatrhed to search for and
destroy our cruiser squadron. Nothing
certain Is yet known by us concerning the
battle. It la reasonable to conclude, how
ever, mat tne acnnninorst, Gnelscnau and
Leipzig were sunk, while the Dresden nnd
the Number succeeded In escaping.
"In view of the superiority of the
onemy's lleot, which consists particularly
of big, fast, well-armed ships, there
seems little chance that our two cruisers
can long evade pursuit. We must, there
fore, also reckon with the loss of both
theso ships. It Is hardly to be expected
from British sources that accurate In
formation wilt be given of the coiirse of
the conflict or of the composition of the
British squadron.
"It should not be forgotten that our
squadron wbb four months on the high
seas, nnd that without belnB able to mako
use of cablesrams or uther means of in
formation It assembled and dealt a heavy
uiow to me enemy's fleet. No protected
harbor was at the disposal of our ships
for most necessary repairs and there was
no dock for the cleaning of their keels.
Thy succeeded, nevertheless, in getting
supplies of orovlsions and coal for four
months without falling Into the enemy's
hands."
Tho BrltlBh official statement announc
ing that tho German cruiser Nurnberg
also had been sunk on December S ap
parently had not been made public In
Berlin when tho foregoing semi-official
communication was Issued,
of tho capture of tho Turkish town of
Ktirna uy Indian troops operating under
tho command of English officers.' Yet
this -unnoticed success gives to Great
Britain control of tho head of tho Porslan
Gulf, one of the few colonial prizes not
annexed by tho European Powers.
Germany, Russia and England have all
been eager for ycnrB to obtain from Tur
key this choice territory, which wns the
most flourishing part of the ancient Baby
lonlnn Empire, where Nebuchadnezzar
reigned 2300 years ago. Antiquarian Inter
est, however, hna not created .Interna
tional rivalries for possession of the Per
sian Gulf's northern littoral. Trado In
terests nnd military strategic reasons
give to Babylonia Its modern value.
Primarily, the same cause that sent
Columbus across tho Atlantic Ocean has
urged England, Germany and Russia to
extend their Influences about the Persian
Gulf. The desire to shorten the route to
India and to the East In general Is the
Impelling move. "While trade expansion
Is the dominant cause, tho military de
fense of India gives nil additional Im
petus to British efforts.
Germany Is now constructing a railway
through Asia Minor to the Persian Gulf
by menus of which Gormnn traders event
ually expect to dominate Eastern com
merce. Now, however, tho terminal mile
age of the lino nt the Persian Gulf end
will have to pans through British terri
tory, for England will undoubtedly In
sist on retaining southern Babylonia it
the Allies are successful at tho end of
the war. Tho most Important part, there
fore, of this new trado route to the East
now Beems destined to become British.
To the present tho success of Eng
land's Indian troops In Babylonia Is the
most important result of Turkey's en
trance into the war. In fact, tho futuru
value of the victory, nfter the war ends,
Is second only to what would accrue
from the capture of Constantinople. The
cheapness of tho conquest la wholly out
of proportion to the result. Tho entire
British casualties were 1 English officer
killed and 3 wounded, nnd 40 Indians
killed nnd 110 wounded. In exchange for
these losses, England receives the most
valuable territorial prize tho war can
give to that nation. The entire district
England has occupied Is not as large us
Connecticut, but It Is one of the few
spots on tho globe Englishmen want to
round off their empire.
AGED RULER LEADS. SERBS
WIN AGAINST INVADERS
Kinff Peter Heads Troops, Which
Movq Toward Belgrade.
LONDON, Dec. 12.
King Peter of Servla, 70 years old, led
his troops against the Austrian to the
overwhelming victory In northwest Ser
vla, which culminated on December 8,
says a dlaputcli from Nlsh.
King Potcr received his training nt St.
Cyr, the West Point of France, and he
Is known as ono of the best strategists
In Europe. Neither his age. his troubles
of State, nor his family affairs have dulled
his military ability.
A news agency correspondent at Nisn
wires: "The Serbs are on the point of
reoccupylng Belgrade. Tho Austrians
there have .been cut off by the Serbs pierc
ing their line. The Serbs have occupied a
town fivo miles from Belgrade."
VICTORIOUS BRITISH FLEET
ASKS 300 BEDS FOR WOUNDED
English Request Montevideo to Care
for Victims of Battle.
BUENOS AIRES, Dec. 12.
Three hundreds beds for the wounded in
tho Falkland naval engagement have been
requested by wireless messages received
today at Montevideo from the British
fleet.
Accotdlng to the nlreless, the wounded
will reach Montevideo. It Is supposed
that practically all of them are Ger
mans, rescued by the British warships
from the Onelsennu and the Leipzig.
Only those vessels under Sir Frederick
Sturdee'a command having the wounded
aboard are expected at Montevideo, The
rest of the vessels, according to wireless
advices, will move northward several hun
dred mllea oft the South American coast.
A massage received at Montevideo last
night stated that they would pass that
polut 300 mtles at sea on Sunday.
The ships bearing the wounded will
then detach from the squadron and put
Into the Uruguayan port.
It Is believed that the desire of the
British to force German sympathizers
to take care of the German wounded Is
responsible for the landing at Monte
video Instead of at a port In the Falkland
Islands, which are a British colony,
It is generally accepted as a fact here
that the Dresden has been sunk. All
reports aarea that It was well toward
evening; before the Numbers' went down.
At that hour, while the Dresden was
still afloat and fleeing, she was apparently
in distress, and It Is believed here that
She foundered during the night This
would aeeount for the failure of Sturdee
officially to report her loss and also for
her failure to interne In some neutral

POPE'S PEACE PLAN FAILS
Vatican Document Stntes "Certain
Power" Blocked Truce Proposal.
ROME. Dec. 12.
The efforts of 1'opo Benedict XV to
obtain a truce In the European war dur
ing the Christmas' season have failed.
This was announced at tho Vatican to
day In a public document which says
that "owing to tho ' opposition" of a
"ceFtaln Power," efforts to stay hostill
ties over Christmas have come to naught,
BERLIN, Dec. 12.The propoeal of Pope
Benedict for a truce among the warring
nations during the Christmas holidays Is
said by the Official Press Bureau today to
have been declined by Russia.
The German Press Bureau previously
announced that Germany was willing to
agree to a Christmas truce, provided the
other nations at war gave their assent.
GERMANS EAST OF LODZ
MENACE RUSSIAN REAR
Berlin, However, Admits Stubborn
Resistance to Wnrsaw Advance.
BERLIN, Dec. 12. Tl.o latest reports'
from the fighting zone around Lodz, ac
cording to Information given out by the
German Ofllclal' Press Bureau today,
show that the resistance of the Russians
in that region Is by no means broken.
Tho new Russian positions on Mlazga
Cut are only same 12 or 18 miles to the
eastward of Lodz, which demonstrates,
it Is said, thnt much yet remains to be
done before tho Russians can be consid
ered definitely defeated.
"In these circumstances." the Gennnn
statement says, "the battles In the vicln-
n j- oi i.owicz, to the northeast of Lodz,
have gained added significance. If tho
Germans succeed In breaking through
here, the positions of the Russians be
hind Mlazga will be untenable,"
(A dispatch from Petrogrnd passed by
the censor says U Is unofficially reported
that tho German army under General
Mnckeneen has penetrated from Lowicz
to within 15 miles of Warsaw. The ad
vance posts of the Germans on this line
would thus be In tho neighborhood of tho
town of Blonle, miles to the northeast
of Mlazga, A direct southward march
would bring General Mackensen's army
to a position 35 miles In the rear of the
Russian defenders of Mlazga.)
iieporis irom aoutn Poland do not men
tion the place where the Auetro-Oerman
nttacks on the Russians have been re
uumed, but it probably Is at a point to tho
south of Plotrkow. These attacks serve
the purpose of preventing the Russians
from detaching forces to assist their
armies further to the north. These at
tacks, as well Is those of the Austrians
In the south, thus far have led to no
definite result.
LONDON, Dec. 12.-Three attempts by
Gormnn submarines to enter British ports
within less than a month have convinced
tho Admiralty officials that the "spy
system" which had betrayed to Germany
military movements supposed to be
known only to high authorities has nlso
succeeded In learning many naval secrets.
The officials believe that Ihe submarines
would not have dared to attack ports
guarded by mines unless their command
ers know the location of tho mines.
A thorough investigation Is being con
ducted to ascertain the manner In which
the mine maps came Into possession of
tho enemy. Deeper Interest Is added to
this Inquiry by news that on Wednesday
morning Gorman submarines made two
attacks on tho Firth tit Forth. A dis
patch from Edinburgh reports that two
of the German vessels wero stink, but
no official announcement to this effect
has been Issued by the Admiralty.
ADMIRALTY KEEPS SILENT.
Naval headquarters maintained the
sumo silence In reference to the Firth
of Fortli episode ns that In reference
to the nttack on Dover earlier In the
week and on Yarmouth some time ago.
The submarlno raid at Yarmouth was
backed by n squadron of German war
ships, but practically nothing has been
nllowcd to appear in the papers about it.
It ccrtnlnly gave the Admiralty and War
Office a shock.
When Lord Kitchener wns told of tho
raid lie was rung up at his residence
almost before ho was out of bed he
gave orders for every official In the' War
Office to romnln Indoors until ho arrived.
When the secretnry did arrive he had
maps of the whole of the cast coast
brought beforo him and spent the morn
ing studying them. No one was allowed
to disturb him. Then ho sent for Wins
ton Churchill, first Lord of the Ad
miralty, nnd tho two were closeted to
gether for several hours.
ALL RIVKRS MINED.
Immediately the mouth of every Im
portant river was mined, but other pre
parations of which the public knows
nothing were also made. A few nights
ago the railroads of the Great Eastern
system were placed at the disposal
of the Government, and In one night
30,000 troops wero transferred from vari
ous camps to positions which had been
selected for them. Further batches aro
to follow.
A number of the new, big guns Just
completed at Woolwich and In Scotland
have already been placed m position at
certain points nnd masked so completely
that the Inhabitants are unaware of their
existence In the neighborhood. The fact
Is that were a German force to land on
any part of tho east coast of Britain, It
would havo small chance of gaining more
than a footing. A thoroughly compre
hensive scheme of defense has been
wprked out by Lord Kitchener.
