On the extreme Monof south however, immediately astir, they have suffered a reverse and have evacuated the Greek town of Banica. Fierce fighting .continues In the region of the Stokhod, on the eastern front, where the Russian advance menaces Kovel and the German salient at PInsk. The battle on the crest of the Carpathians also rages, both sides claiming minor successes.

German counterattacks made at several points along the British lines, according to London, met with no success. The Germans also have made a powerful effort to recap ture Fleury, in the Verdun sector, but Paris reporta a complete repulse. The repeated unofficial reports that Portugal was about to take an active share on the European, battlefield ap parently are confirmed by an announcement from Paris that a British-Frencmilitary commission has been sent to Lisbon.
