The Servians wore reinforced on the eighth and drove the Austrians into the Angle where they were exposed to a terrific bombardment and repeated Servian charges. The Austrians, under cover of night, reached the left hank and avoided a catastrophe, though they were obliged to leave their guns. On the ninth the Servians attacked from Tsrtinbara. The Austrians did not wait for the assault, but fled in disorder. They had only a few boats, and whole lines were annhiliated. The Austrians lost thirteen thousand, but the Servians’ losses were relatively small. RUSSIAN INTENTION. NOT AGGRANDISEMENT. EMANCIPATING HUMANITY. Petrograd. This Day. There is widespread satisfaction at the declaration of the Triple Entente to make peace together.
