AUSTRIAN RIGHT WING DEFEATED

— p BIG BATTLE ON THE YSER LARGE BODIES OF TROOPS MOVING PIRATICAL OUTRAGE BY SUBMARINES BUTCH STEAMER SUNK BY THE GERMANS ALLIED FLEET RE-ENTERS,THE DARDANELLES The arresting feature of to-day's news 6f tie wdr is ths rep6rt, cdntrmed in the High Commissioner's official message; of a decisive, victory by the Russians on the Hungarian side 6f tie Carpathians, where the Austrian right wing has been heavily defeated. A message from Venice states that all civilians in Cracow—the pivot of the Russian operations against the Germans—havebein ordered to quit the fortress, a significant item of news. From the Western theatre there 16 very littie news, but we are told that the roar of the glins on the Yser is increasing in intensity, and that large bodies of troops are moving. The Allied Fleets, with their mine-sweeper's, have reentered the Dardanelles for a fresh attack on the Narrows. 'Mean- ■ while, Turkey is rent by dissensions between the peace and the wilr parties, and if that enterprising and usually well-informed correspondent, Mr. Martin Donohoe, iB correct, the Turkish, Cabinet wds on the verge of suing for a separate peace when the boimoe and bluster of General von Sanders "bludgeoned the Cabiilet into submission" te its present role as Germany's ally. General Garibaldi's spirited appeal to his country, t&rough the medium of an interview in the English Press, for the active intervention of Italy on the side of the Allies, makes encouraging reading, while the viewß of Mr. M'Kenzio, another war correspondent, conveys a promise of Rumania's early participation in the conflict, a move which w6iild be fallowed by Greece and Bulgaria. The Gorman submarine pirates have beta active, and their latest exploit, their inest flagrant violation of international obligations, has been to sink a Dutch steamer bearing a painted description of her identity and nationality on her side. Submarine tJ 20, one of the Germans' latest class of big cruising raiders, is believed by the Admiralty to have bien sunk. '
