COMMUNICATIONS IN "PERIL BRITISH HEAVILY .ATTACKED. POSITIONS LOST AND REGAINED. THE PIRATE WAR. SEA FRIGHTFULNESS MAY BE RESUMED. Tho people of Hungary aro cxper iencing tho sensations of being invaded, a practical demonstration having been given of the presonco of the Russian'cavalry, which has ridden through the Pass of Kirlibala into Hungary, destroyed some telegraphic communications, and burned a villarge. Pflanzer's amy i 6 thereby placed in serious danger of having its lifleg of supply and communications out. On tho Western front, the British have countered a heavy attack by j;ho Germans, who succeeded in regaining positions., a't Longueval n nd' Belleville, but were later, after soTCre fighting, ejected from most of tho ground. A neiv development has arisen in Italy's affairs, in tho shape of an organised Turkish attack on the Italian forces in Tripoli. According to a Turkish official communique, Ottoman volunteer forces attacked the Italians, capturing 200 officers, about 6000 men, and 21 guns. The Turks also claim. successful operations on the Persian frontier, and also, on tho Euphrates. Tho Russian offensive in the Caucasus is progressing favourably. There are . many indications that the Germans arc about to. return to their policy of shoot-on-sight piracies on the 'high seas. A dozen vcsiuls have been sunk in 24 hours, and the German Press is apparently paving the way for a.definite announcement oh the subject. (
