Big Battle Raging Near Paris Results in Advantages to Allies— Russians Succeeding.* I Dispatches report that the GerI man army has suffered great losses and have been compelled to fall back in the face of the fierce fire of the allied forces near Paris. An armistice asked by the Germans to bury their dead has been refused. While-covering their retreat the Germans have delivered fierce but vain counter attacks on the enemy. In Austria the Russians have continued to push forward, inflicting large losses as they have conquered town after town, including many of • the best fortified places. A revolt is reported as about to cause a rebellion in Hungary, where many are reported as in sympathy with Russia instead of their own country. The Czar’s soldiers have been welcomed in some sections and it is reported that in one Austrian theatre the national air of Russia was -sung.
