Serbs has been driven from Pristina and across the Sitnica river where it is thought the Serbians will make a stand at the Albanian and Montenegrin frontiers; they will be at disadvantage. The Serbians on the Katchanik front and in the south west corner of their country continue to check the invaders as do the Anglo- French forces. The Russians are reported to have massed 350,000 men for the Balkan operation but the point where they will strike is not indicated. Gorizia on the Austro-Italian front is render ed untenable, a fate which likewise appears -to be awaiting Riva in Tren- tino. The station at Rtva is in range of the Italian guns, according to Vien na official reports, lending color to the report that the Austrians have evacuated Rovereto.
