cn the French lines near Auberive by I
a strong hostile detachment is de- \
clared to have been repulsed.
| On the eastern front. In the Car- i
pathians, the Russians appear to bo j
holding their own. Petrograd report- '
ins the repulse of Austro-German at
tacks in this region.
Berlin Admits loss
To-day's German official statement
in reporting on the fighting along the
Ancre, admits the loss to the British
of Beaumont-Hamel and St. Pierre
Divion with the lines connecting them.
The losses on both sides were heavy,
it is declared, the Germans suffering
considerably because of their tenacious
defense.
General Von Falkenliayn continues
to make progress in his invasion of
Rumania from the Transylvania front.
Both Petrograd and Bucharest admit
Teutonic successes. The Russo-Ru
manian troops have been compelled to
give ground at one point in the region
northeast of Campulung and to with
draw southward in the Jiul valley
from Bumbesti. where the Austro-
German forces have pushed some 12
miles south of the border.
Progress also along the Moldavian
border of Rumania is claimed by Ber
lin which announces the retirement of
the Russians to the frontier after the
| lighting that has been in progress in
the Gyergo mountains.
No change in the situation in
Obrudja is reported from any official
source.
Germans Completely
Surprised by British in
Attacks Along Ancre
| (Copyright, 1916. By Associated Press)
With the British Armies in France,
1 Nov. 13, via London, Nov. 14 (5:14
'a. m.) —The Germans were apparent
j 1y completely surprised by this morn
ing's attack in the valley of the Ancre.
I An evidence of this was found in the
tact that the garrison of the trenches
around Beaumont Hamel were pre
paring for breakfast at the very mo
ment when the British infantry
j stormed the position. The British,
after partially clearing the under
ground galleries and rounding up TOO
i prisoners, proceeded to eat their
: prisoners' breakfast, telling the cap
tives that they would be fed when they
arrived within the British lines.
4.000 Prisoners
A total of nearly four thousand
prisoners has so far been sent to the
cages, including a regimental com
mander who was captured in a dug
out with a major, an adjutant and a
number of other officers. The ma
jority of the prisoners are Siiesians,
and. according to the British officers,
very inferior fighting material. The
German higher command depended
apparently on the supposedly im
pregnable character of the old front
line and its strongly fortified villages
rather than on the stamina of the
troops. The British officers believe
that the Germans withdrew their best
men for service elsewhere on the
British front where the new and
shallower positions to which the de
fenders have been forced demand
greater resisting power on the part of
the infantry.
British Losses Light
The British losses were unusually
light owing largely to the unexpected
ly feeble character of the German ma
chine gun fire at Beaumont Hamel
and St. Pierre Divion. Large num
bers of German dead were found
strewn in the wrecked trenches of the
original main line. This line con
sisted of four parallel roads of
trenches, the last being flush with
the western face of Beaumont Hamel.
For some days past the sector at
tacked to-day and the area behind
have been subjected to sucessive
bombardments which rose to a rec
ord pitch yesterday and resulted in
the demolition of a large part of the
defenses. The garrison accepted the
morning's deluge of shells as part of
the usual daily program and did not
fully realize their danger until the
British infantry was seen approach
ing in the darkness.
Attacked From Rear
The British north of Beaumont
Hamel was held up on a front about
one thousand yards west of Serre. The
tirst detachment captured some Ger
-1 man trenches and passed eastward to
ward the village. Suddenly hidden
machine guns and infantry snipers.
, scattered in great profusion m tne
j craters and other shelters, began firing
in the backs of the attacking troops
and necessitated their withdrawal.
! North of Serre the British gained
j ground but owing to the failure of
: the advance immediately south the
| position is subjected to an enfilading
t tire from higher ground in the neigh
borhood of the village. A number
of isolated pockets are being cleared
of Germans in the intervening ground
I between Beaumont Hamel and Beau
, court-Sur-Ancre. The British are
| firmly established on the western out
| skirts of the latter hamlet. The re
: maining fragments ot' the old Ger
: man lino immediately south of the
! Ancre which were "pinched out" bv
the British flank pivoting to the
; northeast around the elbow of the
| stream, had been partially isolated
| since the capture of Schwaben re
doubt. Tnree hundred Germans, the
j only survivors of the bombardment.
; were captured in this extensive system
jof riverside caves. Prior to tlie at
: tack the only communication be-
I tween the caves and the German rear
j was by a causeway across the Ancre
| which could only be traversed at
| night.
Teutonic Retreat in
Dobrudja Is Taking
Form of Disaster
London, Nov. 14.—Field Marshal Von
| Mackensen's retreat In Dobrudja has
| assumed disastrous proportions. The
'.Russians have succeeded In crossing the
'Danube at two points south of Tcherna- |
i voda, which means that Von Macken
; sen's army is being taken in the rear
and has been forced back from the Con
; stanza-Tchernavoda railway line. Pet
j rograd dispatches declare his force is
demoralized from reverses, heavy loses,
disease and lack of reinforcements.
! The Black Sea port of Constanza is
reported again under fire of the Russian
fleet.
The recent Serbian victory in Mace- j
( donla appears from the Entente ac
counts to have been a brilliant one.
, Paris reports that the Germans and
Bulgarians were pushed back nearly i
two miles in the C'erna river region, j
southeast of Monastir, in a two-day |
I battle, and that they lost 1,000 men in j
prisoners. Unofficial accounts give an
'additional Serbian success to the north i
along the bend of the river, carrying i
the closing-ln movement on Monastir
; still further.

the fact that the junior high school
