Paris: In Champagne we made a successful surprise attack on a German salient. In the region of Butte Mesnil we penetrated en- emy trenches, destroyed mine batteries and brought back pris- oners. On the left bank of the Meuse a somewhat spirited artil- lery action was maintained in the region of Hill 304, with intermit- tent cannonading on the rest of the front,

A Belgian communication says artillery and mine throwers were energetically counter-shelled by Belgian batteries and trench guns, which violently bombarded the Yser dike and the ‘sector before Dixmude.

London: We raided “hostile

and Souchez, inflicting losses on the enemy and capturing machine guns. Hostile artillery is active at Ypres, La Bassee and west of Le Sars.

_ Petrograd: Both Roumanian and Russian forces in Wallachia continue to retire in the face of unceasing hostile ‘pressure. The Roumanians are retiring eastward,and in consequence the. Russian left flank is also retiring.

- London: The retreating Rou- manians east of Ploeshti have taken a stand, with the result that..the invading Teutons have been driven back ‘several kilo- meters. in the course of the Roumanian attack two host le squadrons were annihilated.
