London: Although Hindenture
and the Kaiser assert that the
Anglo-French offensive has failed
# French official statement shows
that the Gertnang have lost more
than 52,000 prisoners alone during
the recent French and British
drives. Sinee April 1 the British
have advanced on a front of 20
miles, from Loos to south of
Bullecourt, to an extreme depth
of six miles east of Arras, Haig’s
men have taken Vimy Ridge,
dominating the plains of Douai,
and have virtually surrounded
Lens and St.’ Quentin, holding
their gains against desperate and
repeated German assaults, while
inflicting heavy losses on the
enemy.

There is much aerial activity,
the aviators taking advantage of
every passing cloud, always seek-
ing the side away from the
enemy.

The Huns are working British
prisoners close to the firing’ ilne.

Copenhagen: Germans are dis-
appointed with the results of the
U-boat campaign, since they find
Britain nonearerdefeatthan when
unrestricted submarine warfare
commenced. Four months have
already passed without sign of
weakening on the part of the
British, and the Kaiser’s govern-
ment, by a vigorous publicity
campaign, is endeavoring to bol-|!
ster up waning confidence, while
srumblingsare heard every where.

Paris: The Germans sacrificed
hundreds of killed and thousands
of wounded in sixteen futile
efforts to regain the range of hills

“comprising Mont Carnillet,Teton,
Casque and Mont. Haut,. east of
Rheims, . Their artillery fire is
now erratic and their infantry
attacks are foredoomed to failure.

Petrograd: On ‘May 29 a Rus-
sian squadron bombarded. four
ports on the Anatolian coast and
destroyed 147 enemy sailing ships
loaded with supplies,

Germans bombarded Brody, in
Galicia, and Russian positions in
the region of Krevo, southeast of
Vilna, .

Washington: :The Allies will
be allowed to recruit their’ citi-
: zens résiding inthe U.S. Britain
is expected to open réeruiting
offices in New York immediately.
