Pari., 2:60 p. mv—The Frenoh of tb-lal announcement given out in Paris tlilH afternoon aaya yesterday passed without any perceptible modification on the front. The fighting between lnxmude and the Lys continued with out any marked advance or retire ment. It further announces that Russia lias announced officially a great Rus sian victory in Galiolu. La.t Village Taken. London, 0:30 a. m.—A dispatch from Amsterdam to Reuter's Telegram Company says: “The Telegranf learns from Sluis Holland, that the Germans have re-’ tired from the Yser and that the Bel gians have occupied both hanks of the river. The last village evacuated was Btuyvekenskerke, the troops returning front there to Bruges. “The battle Is prooeedmg in the triangle, of Dixmude, Roulers and Ypres. Many of tho Inhabitants aro leaving Bruges and are making their way towards Holland." Less Intenss. London, 10 a. m.—The latest official communications give evidence that the German assaults are becoming less In tense arid there are some Indications of the resumption of the offensive on the part of the allies with the Bel gians reported as occupying both hanks of the Yser and forcing th# Ger mans In that neighborhood to retire on Bruges. No Over-Confldenoe. In spite of these reports, however, there is no disposition among the al lies to be over-confident. Home hint of this feeling Is found In the revived Interest In London In the Russian military campaign. Many military critics are voicing the hope tHat the advance on the Eustern German fron tier will become such a menace that Berlin will be compelled to recall sev eral seasoned corps from the western front to meet the danger. Won't Affect Rueeie. It Is not believed here that Turkey’s entrance Into the field of combat will greatly affect the Russian campaign against the Teutonic allies. Russia has three army corps In the Russian Gaucasus, none of which has been drawn for service elsewhere In the war. Berlin reports little activity along the Russian border and Indications ars not lacking that the German forces, having reached selected positions along the River Warthe, are prepared to check the on-rusli of the Russian armies. Cross Rivsr Ssn. Vienna ndmlts that the Russians have crossed the River Han but the Austrian armies facing the Russian left wtng evidently are still Intact and Iri a position to maintain a stubborn defense. England's warfare against Turkey Is still naval and is likely so to re main until Turkey invades Egypt. Then Italy. Hitch a move, the allies hope, wilt prove a final straw to Induce Italy to embark her fortunes with the entente powers, for the reason that such an Invasion would be a direct menace to Italy's newly won African posses sions. France now has formally declared war on Turkey and her advent rrffcy mean Increased activity on the part of the allied fleet. GERMAN AIRBOMBS DROP AT DOVER?
