of Dobrudja from von Mackensen's German
Allies Is now In full swing.
North of Illrxova a great battle Is devel
oping, Von Mackenten'a forces have been
compelled to withdraw their advanced
posts, but their main positions are still In
tact. The fighting Is proceeding In cold, stormy
weather. Powerful attacks by the Austro
German forces In the Transylvania Alps
and In the lower Carpathians were repulsed
by the Russians.
Bulgarian troops holding von Macken
sen's left wing have been defeated and com
pelled to retreat. According to a telegram
from Bucharest, this makes It Impossible
for the aerman Allies to attack the towns
of Ural la. and Clalatz for the purpose ot
cutting communication between Ilumanla
and Itussla by the way of the Danube
delta.
LONDON. Nov. 7. German losses on the
numanlan frontier In the Jull Valley fight

all fighting classes.)

OFFENSIVE ON NEARLY 'ALL
FRONTS, REPORTS SHOW
l)NDON, Nov. 7. Continued activity on
virtually all fronts, with severe fighting
Mome points, has marked the last twenty
four hours. At all but one or two points
the Entente Allied armies developed strong
offensives with what appears to have been
gratifying success In some Instances.
Since the partially successful German
counter-attacks, which for a time checked
French and British storming lines that had
swept Into "German trenches along the
flomme, there has been no claim from Ber
lin to refute London and rarls War omce
statements that the terrain captured has
been consolidated.
Although Infantry operations on the
west front died down lnte yesterday, there
was heavy artlllerylng, the Kngllsh nlsht
report mentioning specially heavy shelling
of the British front.
The Germans appear to have consolidated
their regained ground In the region of
Butte de Warlencourt, where counter-attacks
droe tho British from hnnl-won
trenches.
In St. Plcrro Vaast wood French trans
port during the night continued combing
out the Germans who were not expelled or
captured during the first rushes.
The Rumanians apparently hao failed to
retrieve their defeat In tho Prcdcal region,
where the Austro-Oermans captured Laomu
Height, but they appear to have maintained
the positions won In tho Dobrudja region,
where they drove the enemy out ot three
villages.
LONDON, Nov. 7.
Despite gales and lolent cannonades by
German artillery the British were able to
consolidate and Improve their positions
around Butte de Warlencourt, on the Somme
front, tho War Office announced this after
