WAR SUMMARY
FOR PAST WEEK
Gleaned from the dispatches from
February 1b to 21.
Desperate lighting marked the week
iilong the Imttle lines Imth Bust and
West but the greatest developments
occurred along the Prussian-Polish
frontiers following the retreat of Ihe
Russians from the disastrous over
throw In Bust Prussia. Desperate
fighting along a line running from
slightly north of the Nieman and some
miles within the Russian boundary, tu
points below the Vistula west of War
saw have continued throughout the
week and have been marked by gen
eral German successes, the Russians
being forced back steadily along prac
tically I lie whole line. The German
successes include the capture of the
cities of Turogcn. some ten miles
north of the Nienn n and an equal dis
tame from the Prussian border, and
also the important city of Augustowa,
from which ili> Russians were com
pelled to withdraw after a desperate
attempt to held the German advance
Bate in the week the Russians resumed
tiie offensive at points to the west of
Warsaw, heavily reinforced movements
being directed against the German po
sitions fronting Plock and Bodz.
Russian offensive movements were
reported at Intervals at various points,
the majority of which appear lb have
| been attempts to relieve the German
' pressure in other localities. The Rus
sians also suffered heavily at all points
in (he Southeastern portion of Galicia
The retreat from the Ihikowiiin pro
vince continued with desperate tight
Ing marking ihe movement during Ihe
latter duys of the week Terrific hat
tics were fought along the river Het'eth
and at the I'szok pass twelve miles
from Czernowitz, the latter eitv fall
ing before the Austro-Germun forces
laie in the week and thus marking
the nearly complete evacuation of the
province, Czernowitz heing hut a few
miles from the Russian border.
Russian successes were reported
from the region lying to the south and
west of Tarnow along a line between
the Handek and Sanok passes. In this
section the gains are entirely in favor
of the Dual Alliance. The battle lines
along tiie Polish and Prussian frontiers
reveal German gains of many miles of
territory the Russians having been
forced from 10 to to miles within their
own boundaries. The battle lino now
apparently i xtends from some few
miles north of tho Xlemon southward
to the east of Augustowa crossing the
Vistula between Warsaw and Plock
and thence south to points along the
Bzura river.
in the Western zone the renewed
German offensive following tho over
throw of the Russians in the East was
continued for some days with vigorous
efforts to pierce tho allied lines at all
important points. German gains were
reported at Verdun and alt important
points to the west and notably nt
Souain, between Reims and Verdun,
and in the Moselle and Vosges districts
in the former the Germans made sub
stantial gains Including tho capture of
Norroy near Pont-a-Monsson. The
Vosges fighting resulted in Ihe cap
ture of tho towns of Wilsone and
Obesnngen. The allies also suffered
severe reverses in lower Alsace heing
compelled to fall back several miles
below Metz. The German offensive
weakened rapidly during the middle of
tho week and was followed by a gen
eral forward movement of the allied
lines, the Germans losing practically
all of the advantages gained during the
early part of the week. The latei
dispatches Indicate many distinct re
verses, the German attacks being
hurled hack at nearly every point,
Sharp counter attacks Instituted by
the French are said to have compelled
the Germans to evacuate many miles
of trenches and positions of consider
able Importance. Severe fighting has
occurred at Tpres, near Bothune, and
nt practically all points east of Reims.
Artillery dueling marked a large por
tion of the fighting during the earlier
days but latterly tho guns were dis
placed by infantry assaults which con
tinued to the end of the week. Tho
week closed with Ihe Germans gen
erally on the defensive and the favor
credited largely to the allies.
The battle lines are practically un
changed. Aero attacks against several
of the German submarine bases along
the North sea were important incidents
of the week's lighting, the aeros in
flicting much damage to tho German
works at Ostend and Zee Brugge.
The submarine blockade of the Brit
ish Isles was inaugurated on the 18th
anil resulted in the Injury of five ves
sels within the first three duys.
