ITALIANS HUNT RAS SEYOUM
FRESH THRUST ON NORTHERN FRONT
ETHIOPIANS HURRYING TO BOLSTER LINE
Asmara, Nov. 25.
A surprise frontal attack towards Tembien, where the clusive Ras Seyoum is believed to be ensconced with a force variously estimated between 500 and 2,000 men, is being undertaken by General Villa Santos Division, from Adown.
The movement began three days ago., General Villa- santos headquarters has already been advanced sixteen miles. But the Italians are maintaining a strict silence about his movements,
The effect of the advance will be, firstly, to correct the Italian line which has, up to now, shown a marked re-entrance south of Adowa; and, secondly, to protect General Santini's right flank near Makale.
