There wa6 issued yèsrday a Treasury statement gh-ing th final balance sheet tor the year 1914-15, and showing the timàted effect of the change made in the proposals of the Chancellor of the Exchequer during the passage of the Finance Bill of the second session Of the present year through the House of Com- mons.

ENORMOUS GERMAN LOSSES. I 1. LUss -Eil so I I Teutonic Hordes Beaten I Back. PESSIMISM IN BERLIN. Rumanians Rise Against Magyars. i The news to-day from all parts of the vast front is of an 1 extremely, gratifying nature. Slowly but surely the Allies in the Western area are re-oocupying Flanders, demonstrating their superiority in no unmistakable fashion; the Russians have gained the most decisive vic- tories in Galicia and Poland; and the Serbians and Mon tenegrins have vanquished the Austrian hordes. The German Wireless Press admit the withdrawal of their forces along the entire eastern front and in the plain of Gorlce. Berlin is apparently realising the gravity of the situation, and a member of the Reichstag writes a pessimistic letter to the Berliner Tageblatt dealing with the position. The Rumanians in the Abrud Mountains, Transylvania, have revolted against the Magyars. i chrjsYmas victories. I- Russtans Succeed in Every Fierd of Operations. Pettograd, NVednesday.-Tu every field of operations the Russians were strikingly vict.orious on Christmas Day. Details are being received of the fight- ing in the Sarikamysh district, in Asia Minor. The Turks in great force attacked the Russians, who repulsed them, inflict- ing heavy losses on the enemy and cap- turing many funs and q-uickfirers. After the Russians had silenced the Turkish ar- tiUery the Turks were. reinforced, but so were the Russians. Fighting continued by day and night with changing fortune. The Russian field gnns demolished the new -Turkish mountain gttfig. All arms were engaged. The Turks retired in dis- order, pursued by the Russian eav-.alry., The Turks ravaged the Greek and Ar- menian yilages. The filst Russian bath train "wesit to East Prussia,, and thence to Poland. It has accommodation for 1,200 baths daily, and many soldiers tramped 410 versts to reach it.-Prew Association. I Defeat Admitted.) I The following message was sent- out I yesterday by th& Kaiser's wireless bureau and tapped by the Marconi Company:— The Russian army which about a week ago began the offensive against those of our forces which had crossed the Car- pathians had been reinforced with sup- plementary it oops and fresh divisions in suelk a manner that it proved to be necessary for us to withdraw our troops along tie entire daatern front and in the plain of Gorlce. The situation in the- north has not been influenced thereby." In the Balkan theatre of the war the Montengrins showed a great but unsuc- cessful activity. A weak attack on our outer field entrenchments at Trebinje was repulsed without difficulty, and the tnemy's artillery has been silenced. The cannon of the Montenegrins did I not have the slightest effect on the strong frontier fortress of Krievosije. I PESSIMISM IN GERMANY. f People Disappointed with the Army's I Progress. Copenhagen, Wednesday.—There is growing pessimism iu Germany, and it is evident that the people are disap- pointed with the progress made by their Army and the deeds of destruction per- petrated by them. A member of the Reichstag, writing to the Berliner Tageblatt," save Ber- lin is asking the opinion of the provinces, and in the provinces the people are asking what Berlin is thinking. Everywhere people in public are endeavouring to keep cool and are stimulating optimism, but in private the same people invari- ably express surprise that a favourable development has not come sooner. Everyone is now seeking for a scape- goat to take the blame. Sympathisers with the military party criticise the diplo- mats for not having secured Germany more allies before the war. Outside the Reichstag, there is a strong) under-cur- rent running against the Imperial Chan- oellar, Dr. Bethmann-Hollweg, who is I I being accused of having made every con- i ceivable mistake, and is even being blamed for the apparent failure of mili- tary strategy." Scandinavian papers (1IIress surprise that this article should have been allowed to be published, and the fact is highly significa nt .— Exchange. 1 ROUMANIAN REVOLT. J j Suffering a Sort of Last Judgment. I I Suffering a Sort of Last Judgment. I Paris, Decembe "2-Sth.-Informatiot, has been received here from Bucharest that I r the Roumanians in the Abrud Mountains, Transylvania, have risen against the Magyars, who, while systematically send- ing Roumanian, troops to the most ex- posed points of the firing line, maltreat and oppress the Roumanian rpopulation at home. Light is thrown on this revolt by a letter sent from a Hungarian-Roumanian to a friend in Bucharest, which is pub- I lished here. The writer says: Here we are suffering a sort of last judgment. Our poor lads perish by tens of thousands in the stupid quarrel, and thousands of others return crippled with frozen feet and mutilated limbs, condemned to un- happiness for the whole of their lives. The Germans P-tid Hungarians stay by their firesides, while no Roumanians are spared. Huoschbacks, crip-plea, con- sumptives, all &ro taken." A terrible description of the sufferings of the Roumanian soldiers and of their misery in an abandoned country is given, the writer pointing out that all this has to be endured for a cause in which Roumanians have no interest.

The « Russko invalid estimates that the Turkish Regu- lars operating against the Caucasion front are three and a half corps, namely, the 9th, 10th, and 11th, and the 7th Division of the Mesopotamia Corps. The main strength is grouped in the direction of Sarykamysch. One division of the 13th Corps, detached to the valley of the Euphrates to secure the right flank, has been broken up. Apparently only second line units and Kurd formations are assigned to protect the left flank and the Van region. The Tifiis correspondent of the Bourse Gazette" reports that the Russians are successfully engaging the Turks in the region of OItT. whither the enemy dis- patched all the forces from Eraraei, con- sisting of several corps. A force of in- fantry and Cossacks fell on a Turkish de- tachment of greatly superior strength like an avalanche, and almost annihilated it. The heaps of Turkish dead testify to the ferocity of the fighrting.

THE SWANSEA BOYS I OFFICERS' HIGH PRAISE TO THEIR RGHTUKJ QUALITIES. Mr. B. W. Jones, -T.P., has received a letter from oil officerjOf the 6th Welsh, which tells of the fine fighting dualities of that bat- talion. Appended are extracts from the letter TOw boys are Tery grateful for all that the Swansea people are doing for them, and I am sure you will be pleased to know that wherever we send a party of men to per. form a duty the offloar commanding that plaoe is high in his praise of them, and good reports come in from all sides. This is the firtfc time the 6th, as a Ter. ritorial battalion, has had the teefc of re- lationship between the men and their offi- cers, a6nd it is an easy thing for the latter to say that the discipline is excellent. The loss of life on the East Coast is Tery sad, but I am inclined to lOOk upon it as a kind of sacrifice upon the altar of real- isation to tihe people at home,-thaa is, some- of them, for there arc those who will never take the war seriously until it is brought home to thean in some such drastic man- ner. Now that the inhabitants of our snug little island see how ofo&e the war really iq,, I hope there will be no need for compul- sory 3nomaures as an aid to swening the Army.

SWAHSEA AND THE STORM. I From inquiries made this morning, It seems that the only effects in Swansea of the boisterous weather last evening have been the breaking of a few gas lamps and the return to dock of the German prize sailing vessel Melpomne. 'The Melpomne set sail last Thursday for Plymouti. but was wind bound, and brought back to Swansea Roads, where she has since been lying. Yesterday she was dragging her anchors and in response to a call from Mumbles Lighthouse a tug was sent to her rescue, and she was again brought into Swansea South Dock by the evening tide. Mr. Walter Webber, asked for his ex- planation of last night's gale, spoke of it in disparaging terms. He went home in it, he said, so he knew. It was rough, he admits and the wind may at times havq had a velocity of 40 to 50 miles an hour, but, as a gale, the effort was not equal to that of Monday.

A GUN THAT STICKS BILLS! WONDERFUL INVENTION OF THE PAST YEAR.  Some striking devices have made their appearance among the inventions of the past year, regarding which Messrs. Hughes and Young, patent agents, of 55-56, Chancery-lane, London, supply interesting information. A motor-car without wheels has been specially designed for passing over rough ground and climbing steep hills. Instead of wheels the car has three parallel pairs of runners, resembling those on sledges, except that they are movable. As soon as the motor is started one pair is raised, moved forward, and set on "the ground, and these movements are imitated by the sucoceding runners. The car al- ways rests on two pairs, and by means of the forward action of the runners also moves forward- For bank messengers and others who carry large sums of money in the street an American inventor has designed a special handbag, in the handle of which a revolver is concealed. Another invention is a luminous writing fluid with radio- active properties, so that letters written with it may be read in the dark. A gun which sticks bills is among the year's bright thoughts. It is said that by this contrivance, which dispenses with a ladder, posters have been placed at heights of 30ft. from a distance of 50ft. or more. Another patent is a ship with an upper deck which can M released from the hull and will float when the vessel sinks.

INTERCESSION AT SWANSEA. The Nonconformist churches of Swansea will join in the general Day of Inter- on throughout the country on Sunday next. Each churc" has been invited to do so by the National Free Church Council. Though there has been no concerted action in connection with the Swansea Free Church Council, it is expected thai the day will ba generally observed. Meanwhile the annual united Week of Prayer proceeds as usual. On New Year's night a united prayer meeting takes place in Argyle Church. Each day next week, at noon, there is to be & united prayer meeting, and each evening another in Argyle Church. This armngement again will embody the weekly united noon prayer meeting held every Wednesday in Mount Pleasant Church, and aleo the weekly united prayer meeting on Thursday evening.

I ttlfUbluUo VCnuLAMUC. I GERMAN SOCIALIST PROTESTS AGAINST SOWS UtATR StNiEtt Amsterdam, Wednesday.—The out- rageous decision of a German court martial, condemning to death Private William Lonsdale, formerly a prisoner of war at Doeberitz, for an offence for which he was esntenced at the beginning or December to the heavy penalty of ten years' imprisonment, is clearly the out- come of the AjDrglophobiaf at present ragiag in Berlin. This act of ferocious vengeance against an unfortunate private soldier has elicited a protest from Dr. Edward David, the German Socialist Deputy, who thus expresses himself in to-day's Von- waerts e War has accustomed us to accept the terrible with resignation, but I cannot maintain silence with regard to the death sentence passed upon an English prisoner of war in Doeberitz Camp, and I hope thai the great majority of German people share my feelings. The unfortunate young man who has been entangled in the machinery of military justice did not act from bMIf I criminal motives. Let one place oneself in the mental condition of a prisoner. It is comprehen- sible that an unpleasant incident would excite him made than if he were living in normal conditions. Accused in the ex- citement of the moment permitted himself to be carried away so far as to actually attack the Landsturm guard. For such an action by an unarmed man in a prison against armed men, ten yearie imprison- ment was certainly no mild punishment. It was also amply sufficient as a deterent. Shall the unfortunate blow now be expi- ated by a horrible act of exeeuQonI Against this my feelings revolt. What would we say should one of our prisoners in England be executed according to law, ?.r an act done in a moment of passion? Therefore, clemency for the unhappy man in the name of humanity and in th* interests of our own prisooAn in the hostile country. I No Fresh Evidence. Amsterdam, Wednesday.—From Genaaa.
