raids on the coast of England, the capture of Montencgro’s two prin- cipal seaports by tlie Austrians and the taking by the Germans of trenches from the French near Arms and in Argonne Forest", are told of in the latest official com- munications of London, Vienna and llcrlin. First one German aeroplahc and- t\vcIvc hours later, two German seaplanes flew over and dropped bombs on the east lcoast of Kent. Nine bombs were dropped by the aeroplane; one man was killed, two men and one woman and three children injured. Some damage was done to pro- perty. The raid of the seaplanes was without effect apparently. The London \Var Office declares no damage was done and there were no casualties. The aircraft in both instances escaped, although fired upon by British guns and chased h_v ‘British aviators. ‘

Antivaria and Dulcigno on the

Adriatic coast of Montenegro have fallen into the hands of the Aus- trians, which leaves King Nicholas only a` few miles of front on the sea and gives the Austrians com- mand of the coast from the Gulf of Trieste virtually to the Albanian frontier.

hundred Serbians have surrendered in the past fc\v days. A semi- official communication says a con- siderable portion of the Montene- grin army declined to Surrender and fierce fighting has been resum- ed in the mountain district. Heavy fighting has been in progress in France. The French advanced position on thc road between Arras and Lens arc being ztttackerl by strong German forces. The in- fantry atlack was preceded by ming explosions and a violent bom- bardment, and the Germans cap- tured thc first line trench on a front of several hundred yards. 1" reneh counter-attacks were immediately inaugurated and :t portion of the captured trench was retaken. The Germans, however, ,at the close of the day occupied about 206 yards of the advanced trench which formed a salient in the French lines. _ -Twenty-four. l~`reneh acroplanes made a raid on the railway station and barracks at Metz, dropping 130 shells. The'French airmen were heavily bombarded, but all returned undamaged except onc, which was forced to land south-east of Metz.

their advance against the Turks in the Caucasus, Petrograd says, mak- ing thcm retreat in the region of Tlrzerum, and the Russians are cap- gturing prisoners- ammunition and supplies. The roads are strewn with Turkish dead. The Russians are also on the offensive against the Teutons south of Dubno and Dinester and Pruth Rivers in East Galicia. At one point along the Pruth, Vienna says, thc Austrians blew up a Russian trench, killing nearly all of thc 300 men in it.

destruction of an .f\ustro-I'Iungar- ian hydro~acroplané by a British submarine, which also sank a tor- pedo boat coming to its assistance, were received here to-day. The incident occurred near flrado. The

submarine caught the scaplnne after it had fallen into the sea as 21 result of engine trouble and cap- tured the two officers who were piloting it. The submarine then torpedoed the seaplane. .»\ torpedo boat, which probably was escorting the scaplane, then appeared and the submarine by clever manoeuvring fired a second torpedo.
