FIRST YEAR OF THE WAR IN THE WEST The first month and a half of the western campaign was made up of startling, swift moves. On September 12, after the defeat on the Marne, the Germans took up defensive positions along the Aisne river. The ten and a half months since then have seen a fong deadlock. The battle line of the Aisne and the Oise quickly extended northeast to the gea. Fighting has been continuous, with tremendous losses. The general situation has remained unchanged, gains of a few miles for one side at one point offset by minor gains for the enemy in other sectors. At the beginning of August the kaiser took possession of the little state of Luxemburg and demanded passage through Belgium to the Fran- oo-Belgian frontier. Permission to. pass denied, Von Einem attacked Liege (August 4), while other German armies passed around the city and swept over the fevel Belgian roads at a terrific rate. The little Belgian army yielded Brus- sels and fell back to Antwerp and Ghent. First Big Engagement. Not until the Germans had almost reached the French border did ‘the first important engagemefi take place This is generally known as the battle of Mons-Charleroi (about August 20- 28), but at the same time there was severe fighting along the whole line through Thionville in Lorraine and along the Vosges in upper Alsace, which the French had invaded with temporary success. This battle resulted in defeat for the French and English. While obtaining some successes in ecounter-attacks on the advancing Ger- mans at Peronne and at Guise, the French were obliged to fall back rap- fdly to the line of the River Marne. On the left the French had with- drawn to below Paris and the western- most German army, under Von Kluck, followed. The garrison of Paris was put in thousands of motor cars and hurled on Yon Kluck’s flank. The latter was not taken entirely unawares and met the attagk strongly, but at the same time the army of General Foch attacked the German army on Von Kluck’s left and drove it back. Driven Back From Paris. The Germans had begun the battle with five armies in line. The with- drawal of the two farthest west now caused the retreat of the third, fourth and fifth in that order, each in turn finding its flank exposed by the with- drawal of the troops on its right. At the same time the movement on the east end of the German line was ac- lerated by a strong attack from the nch fortified zone of Verdun. The German retreat was as orderly as that of the French and English had been. The invaders took up an ad- mirable defensive position. It ran just north of the Aisne river, on a geries of bluffs, then just north of Chalons and through the wooded, ugh regions of the Argonne and the oevre, joining hands here with the ope besieging Verdun.

They succeeded in pushing back the allies only a little and the invasion of Silesia by the Cossacks finally induced them to desist and send re-enforcements to Russia. The Germans in September had per- formed the feat of pushing a salient into the French line south of Verdun, which terminated on the west bank of while the French had taken the offensive with some success in Champagne at about the same time. For the most part throughout the winter the fighting consisted of regu- lar siege warfare, with heavy artillery combats and mine and counter-mine. The flooding of the River Aisne from winter snows gave the Germans a chance to entrap the French troops on the north side of that river in the vicinity of Soissons for a considerable distance and kill or capture most of them (January 14). Take Offensive in Spring. With the spring, the French and English attempted to take the offensive at several points. Always preparing the way with tens or hundreds of thou- shands of shells, they tried joint after joint of the German armor. In the Vosges the dominating height of Hartmannsweilerkopf was taken and retaken several times in sanguin- ary charges and finally remained in the hands of the French. The salient of St. Mihiel was also subjected to tremendous French pres- sure on both “legs.” The French suc- ceeded in gaining a little ground, but the Germans, despite the apparent weakness of the sharp wedge they had driven into the French line, could not be dislodged and later sucoseded in re- gaining some of the territory they had lost. The British also reported “victories” at Neuve Chapelle and Hill No. 60, in Flanders. Whether these should be accounted successes for the allies is doubtful. The British suffered enor- mous losses and at Neuve Chapelle bungled affairs to the extent of shell- ing their own men who had taken Ger- man trenches. In other cases they left gallant little parties lodged in enemy's trenches without supports to be annihilated. The next development was the un- expected use of poisonous gas fumes by the Germans in attacks just north of Ypres. With this novel weapon they succeeded in taking several small villages and more than compensating for the British gains south of Ypres. The losses of the French, Canadians and British were severe, but they sue- ceeded in stemming the German on- slaught effectively a few miles back from their former position. Begin Series of Attacks, The German line makes a salient at Soissons, though not such a pro- nounced one as at St. Mihiel. The French now began a series of at tacks on the upper side of this salient, to the north of Arras. Expending hun- dreds of thousands of shells, they time and again blasted away the barbed wire entanglements and concrete trenches, held by Crown Prince Rup- precht of Bavaria’s men, and then charged across the desolate ground for slight gains. The fighting centered about the su- gar refinery of Souchez and the great German work called the Labyrinth. Fighting went on in cellars and tun- nels below the earth and the casual- ties were heavy. The French bent the German line and captured the Laby- | rinth, but whether the gains justified The remnants of | | gonne forest, their sacrifice in human life is ques- tionable.

The Austrians invaded Serbia in great force about August 15 and pene- trated to the Jadar river, where a great five-day battle ended in the rout of the Teutons. The Austrians returned soon in stronger force than ever. They reached Valjevo, where on November 17 the Serbians met a defeat. With their supply of artillery am- munition exhausted, the Serbians now had to retreat. The Austrians, be- lleving them crushed, withdrew six army corps for = re-enforcements against the victorious Russians in Ga- ° licia. Shells and English tars with naval | guns reached the Serbians, and on December 5 they turned on the Aus- trians and cut them to pieces. The entry of Turkey into the war was marked by a brave, but foolhardy attempt to invade Egypt. Great Brit- ain’s Indian and colonial troops threw the invaders back with heavy losses. British and Japanese troops invest- ed the fortified German port of Tsing- “tau, China, and after a siege of a few weeks the defenders gave up the hope less struggle. A section of the Boer population of South Africa revolted. The revolt was put down by a Boer, Premier Botha. He then {invaded German Southwest Africa, and after a long campaign In the waterless deserts captured the greatly outnumbered Germans (July 8). After taking three-quarters of a year to arm herself to the teeth, Italy at- tacked Austria this spring. The effect of the entry of Italy upon the arena has not yet been marked. ~~ CHEB E PRE PL bbb bh Sd id dtd bdd $ FIRST YEAR COST OF WAR IN MEN AND MONEY Only approximately accurate tables of the killed, wounded and missing in the first year of the war are possible, because France and Russia and Austria- Hungary do not give out their figures, while Germany has changed her policy recently to one of secrecy.

The end of the year, however, finds the pendulum swinging strongly against the czar. He may recover and take again the roads to Cracow, Vienna and Berlin, but just at pres- ent he is on the whole in worse plight than in any hour since the war started. Russia’s losses in the first year of the war are not approached by those of any nation in any war of history. According to reliable estimates, she has had between 2,500,000 and 4,000, 000 men killed, injured and captured. Despite these horrible gaps made in her ranks, she still has millions in the field, and her great reservoir of personnel does not show signs of ex- haustion. It is not men she lacks, but guns, shells and brains. Slow to Mobilize. On August 1, 1914, Germany dg- clared war on Russia. Almost imme- diately the Germans crossed the fron- tier at Thorn and the Austrians south of Lublin. They were practically un- opposed because of the slowness of | mobilization in Russia. The Grand | Duke Nicholas Nicholafevitch was forced to gather his main armies well to the rear of ‘the line of great fort- resses running through Kovno, Grod- no. Ossowetz, Novo Georgievsk, War- saw and Ivangorod. On account of his desire to do all he could to relieve the French, -who were being driven trom northern France by the amazing German rush through Belgium, Nicholas attacked sooner than he otherwise would have done. As a result, he met two disas- ters. He sent General Samsonoff into Fast Prussia from the south and General Rennenkampf into East Prus- sia from the east, the latter winning the first large engagement of the war in the East at Gumbinen, At this moment the Germans, be- lieving that the French were well in hand and about to be surrounded on their eastern frontier, quickiy with- drew 250,000 men from France and hurled them by rail into East Prus- sia, where they fell upon Samsonoff with crushing force in the great Ger- man victory of Tannenberg (Aug. 28). Meanwhile, the Austrians, leaving only a few troops in Galicia to hold back the Russians advancing from Tarnopol on the line of the Gnila-Lipa, struck the Russians en masse at Kras- nik and routed them to Lublin. Most Bloody Drive of War. With two armies in difficulty, the grand duke decided to abandon one to its fate and save the other. He threw re-enfcrcements into Lublin and ordered the line of the Gnila- Lipa river be forced at any cost. In one of the most bloody drives of the war the Russians advanced into east- ern Galicia and occupied Lemberg. The Russians then advanced to Rawa Ruska and took the Austrian armies in Poland in the rear, cutting them up frightfully. Meanwhile Von Hindenburg had completed his victory over Samsonoft by turning on Rennenkampf and clear ing East Prussia of Muscovites. But though Renrenkampf had been de- feated and Samsonoff almost anni- hilated, the Germans. The Russians were now as far west as Tarnow in Galicia, while their Cossacks were able to make raids into Hungary farther south. Hindenburg concentrated a great force suddenly in Silesia and began a drive from the west against Warsaw and Ivan- gorod. The Siberian corps arrived in the nick of time to save Warsaw from the enemy. High Tide of Russian Invasion. Hindenburg then drew off the north- ern scction of his army in Poland to the north, thinking to take the pursu- ~~ THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY.

The Ger- mans withdrew to Silesia and the Rus- sians, following closely, were able for a brief moment to raid this rich province at Pleschen. At the same time they entered East Prussia again. But again the German strategic railways proved their undoing. Hin- . denburg concentrated at Thorn and drove into the right flank of the Rus- sian main forces, throwing them back on Lodz. He advanced too far, however, and when he had the Russian forces near- ly surrounded, he suddenly found Rus- sians in his own rear. In this ex- tremity, the Russians say, he tele- graphed for re-enforcements. But. before the re-enforcements sent from Flanders arrived the Ger- mans had managed at frightful cost to hack their way to safety. This was the bloody battle of Lodz. Wins Second Victory. With stronger German forces oppos- ing them the Russians withdrew te the line of Bzura, Rawa and Nida rivers. At the same time the Aus- trians, attempting to debouch from the Carpathian passes, were driven back everywhere, leaving 50,000 pris- oners. With January Hindenburg made a third desperate attack on Warsaw. For ten days, both night and day, the Germans came on. Then, having lost probably 50,000 men and the Russians nearly as many, they gave it up. Unable to reach Warsaw, Hindenburg concentrated twice Siever’s force in East Prussia, and won his second overwhelming victory there. Enor- mous captures of Russians were made and the fortress of Gradno was at- tacked farther west, from Ossowetz to Pultusk. The Germans retreated to Mlawa and then tried to flank the Russians at Przasnysz, which city they took. But the Russians again flanked the flanking party, as they had done at Lodz and won an important success (February 22-28). In March and April, the Russians pressed through the western Carpa- thian passes and entered Hungary. Just when their future seemed bright- est, the Germans broke the Russian line in West Galicia and let through enormous forces. Pressing westward irresistibly, they took the Russian Carpathian armies in the rear. The latter tried to retreat, but vast numbers were captured. Przemysl, which had succumbed te the Russian besiegers March 22, fell again into the hands of the Austro- Germans. Great German Maneuver, From Przemysl Von Mackensen drove east through Mosciska and Grodek and captured Lemberg, the Galician capital. Then he turnéd north and marched upon the Warsaw- Ivangorod Brest - Litovsk triangle from the south. At the same time the Russians in southern Galicia, putting up a desper- ate resistance, were driven by Von Linsingen first to the line of the Dniester and then across the Gnila- Lipa to the line of the Zlota-Lipa. Reaching the vicinity of Krasnik in their drive to Warsaw from the south, the Austrians sustained a se- vere check in the scene of their tri- umph of the previous summer. Held on this line the Germans attacked hot- ly from the north and took the town of Przasnysz (July 14). The Ge. mans now began the grand- est maneuver ever seen in the history of human warfare. From the Windau river in the Bal- tic provinces all the way along the border of East Prussia and in a gigan- tic sweep through the vicinity of Ra- dom, west of the Vistula, and a Wne south of the Lublin-Cholm railway they delivered smas’‘ng blows and have reached the very gates of War saw. a eS SN me Repartee.
