the ser, where the struggle has been most intense, the
• allies have not drawn back, says the Freueli official state
, men t, while toward the south further progress lias been
made beween Ypres and Holders.
As reports filter in from the scene of fighting along the
•North Sea, supplementing the unemotional official state*
; nients, it became evident to-day that the recent battles
along the sliore of the North Sea have been the most ter-
:i rible of the war. From Emperor William, himself, it is
11 said, came tile order fhat the German advance down the
; coast must be continued at any cost, and that Calais must
>be taken. Phe desperate assaults which followed, par
| ticiilarly along the Yser canal, have few precedents in
modern military history.
' _ British newspapey correspondents estimate that some
j 5,000 Germans succeeded in forcing their way across the
;icanal. They did it at a frightful cost. Into a hail storm of
.| shrapnel and shot the Germans charged night after night,
'jonly to be <-ut down by the thousands until the canal was
clogged at points with their bodies. Those who succeeded
in forcing their way across came to death grips with their
waiting adversaries, and with rifle shot and bayonet the
j struggle went on. Of the Germans who crossed the Yser,
11 according to British reports few escaped alive.
All reports agree that the lighting in the east continues
! without decisive results. The Trench official statement
! says that on the river San and south of Przemysl the Rus
[jsian offensive is becoming "more accentuated." The latest
;official Austrian communication states the main Russian
'army is being engaged and that minor successes have been
: won by the Germans and Austrians. From Petrograd no
report had come up to early afternoon.
Further lighting in Bosnia is reported from Yienna.
I where the claim is made that the Servians have been
I driven baek to Yishnegrad and that eastern Bosnia is
I cleared of the enemy.
Although if is impossible to make even a rough est
imate of the sacrifices in men entailed by the war, all indi
cations point to aii enormous total of dead and wounded
| men. Berlin sends'a report that the French have 100,000
j rney wounded and incapacitated through illness. Rome
relates that what are styled official reports place the Ger
jmaii average of casualties at 10,000 daily.
The condition of General Yon Aloltkc, chief of the Ger
man general staff, who was compelled by illness to re-
Ilint)uislt his duties, is said in Berlin to be such as to cause
• no alarm.
