Three German Mobilization
Centers ‘ ‘

 

The remnants of the Belgian troops, which are still
defending the little strip of their fatherlaml not ill pos-
session of the Germans, once more arc hearing the brunt
of the fighting in the west. Unofficial reports from Am-
sterdam state that the Germans are again making unfat-
tack along the Yscr, which was the scene of the llcav—
iest fighting and greatest loss of life of the war thus far
during the earlist German attempts to break through the
allied line and reach the English Channel. For the last
two days Belgians and Germ ms have been engaged in
combat. ill which the possession of trenches has. been
decided withihgbflonets. The Amsterdam reports say .
the German attacks have been repulsed. ,

The struggle in the cast is increasing in severity as
the Austro-Gcrman attack develops. Heavy fighting is
now in progress along virtually the whole front, except in
Bukowina. An official statement from Pctrograd'today-
reports a number of important victories for the Russians.
In Northern Poland, near the \Vcst Prussian border, the
village of Skcmpc. for some. time the seen of a hard
struggle, has been captured by the Russians. the report
says. Further south. to tllc west of Warsaw, the Ger-
mans brought up large masses of their first line troops
and repeated their tactics of hurling unencgimlent after
another at selected positions. The Russian report dc-
scrihcd the attacks as furious, and adds that the Ger-
mans suffered immense losses. hilt were driven back. So
far as the report shows. there has been no change in the
Carpathians. .

Russian aviators bombardc'd three German mobiliza-
tion centers, another official report says. The raid is 0
described as successful. but no details are given.

The surrender of Limit-Col. Kemp, the South Afri-
can rcllcl leader, is cxpectcl at Pretoria to bring: to an
end the uprising. Five hundred burgllcrs and their of—
ficers laid down their arms. and the surrender of Colonel
Maritz, the only one of the four original lenders who is
still at large. is predicted.
