TO ASSIST BEATEN MUSCOVITES Allies, With Russian Defeat to Ketrieve, Hammering Away JUt Dardanelle. I Lclondon, Aug. 11.?"While the Russians are fighting desperately to extricate themselves from the Austro-German caradon pressing them in Poland, tbeir allies are workisg feverishly and witft- considerable scccess to open me Dardanelles, through which they hope to pour much needed war munitions into Russia. ince Saturday night, when fresh j British forces were landed on tJ:e GalI lipoli peninsula there has been almost | continuous fighting on th Krithia road. In these operations the Australians and New Zealanders in the "Anzac" region, a name taken from the i intial letter of the words Australian! New Zealander army corps, f:ave cooperated with new forces to the north. 0 Gain More Ground. Following successes of the troops on the Krithia road and those north of the "Anzac" zone, the Australians and New Zealanders took the offensive yesterday and trebled t! e area they formerly held. Their comrades to the north I who assisted them made no further progress, however. Simultaneously the French battle ship St. Louis attacked Turkish batteries os the Asiatic side of the straits which had been bombarding the allied position on the peninsula and put five guns out of commission. The.^e actions are believed here to foe prerminary to a mu chmore am bitious attempt by tJ:e Angio-^Tencn commanders to sweep the Turks before them. Heavy losses which already have ben inflicted on the Turks have discouraged the Ottomans, according to Qreek reports. Kotdo Danger Point On the Eastern front Kovno is the danger point in me xvussiaii uuc. n-e grand duke apparently has arrested the German offensive against Riga and Dvinck, but is hard pressed on the Kovno front, which the Germans are attacking with guns of all caiiDre, including the famous l$-inch cannon. Little fras happened in the West except the usual artillery engagements. German submarines in the last three days have sunk 18 vessels, four of them owned in Aeutral countries. The tfritisn patrol Doat ttamsey nas been sunk by the German auxiliary cruiser Meteor in the North Sea. /P":e Meteor's commander, realizing that es1 cape from pursuing British vessels was impossible, abandoned his ship and blew her up. The Meteor apparently was the Hamburg-American- company steaber of that name, a vessel or 3,ujs j tons. There i ave been requent reports today of firing off Heligoland.
