St. Petersburg (Petrograd) Sept. 9.
-Galicia is now q Russian province.
An Official proclamation signed by
Car Nicholas making this announce.
ment emphasized the extent Of the
great Russian victory over Austria.
All of Eastern Galicia as far n the
River San 10 now declared to be held
by the Russians and they are report
ed to have crossed the San in great
force south Of Przemysl and to, be
marching porthward to attack that
city and Jarsolav in: both front and
rear.
It is the intention Of the Russian
general stan to take these positions
AZ soon as possible. SO that a general
movement northward against the
remnants of the Austrian army can
be begun.
The Austrian armies Of General
Moritz Won Auhenberg, former Aus
trian minister Of war, and General
Dankl are reported as almost com.
pletely surrounded by vastly su'
perior Russian force. Their surren.
der is looked for.
They are now penned in Northern
Galicia and in Russian Poland near
Kraznik and Zamic, being attacked
from the front by Russian army to-
falling nearly 100000 men, with more
than 1000 guns.
Second Army Advancing.
In addition, another strong Russian
army is advancing from the south
east to attack the Austrians and their
German reinforcements from the
flank.
But it is not alone the Russian
army that the Austrians are fighting.
Their sanitary arrangements have
been very bad. it is said, and an
epidemic of disease is reported as
ravaging the troops.
Thousands of Austrians have died
of dysentery and many Of the Aus
trian prisoners are suffering from the
dread disease, 1t is said. Austrian
prisoners, as well as wounded, have
been isolated.
Secret agents report Vienna is be.
ing prepared for a siege. Thousands
of men have been put to work
STRENGTHENING the Vienna defenses
and new line Of intrenchments is
being completed around the city.
Heavy guns are being mounted and
the natural advantages of the city
are being utilized to every possible
extent: The Russians are advancing
through the entire territory between
the Vistula and the Bug rivers. The
Russians, as a result Of the mobility
of the Cossack cavalry, have been
able to command the passes between
the Carpathian mountains. This will
open the way for an advance into
Hungary along the direct road to
Budapest.

Allies Readjust Their Lines.
The unexpected swing Of the Ger

the lines of the allies, resulting in a
battle formation that puts the Ger

advance of the allies left proved. Bits
of news already coming in from the

wing gained distinct success, the
Germans suffering greatly while try

as pontoon bridges were finished the
French three-inch guns demolished
them before the Germans could cross.

 While the advocates of the abolition of capital punishment earnest and active. many signs indi cate that they are in hopeless minority Public sentiment when opportunity has been given it for expression has been disnclned to abandon an in sttution which is regarded deterrent from ital crimes notwithstanding the statistics and theories of the antis.
 We have noticed in the examination of tales men for jurors in murder trials that those who excused account of pronounced opinion against capital punishment constitute very low percentage oI the whole number of talesmen examined And of this small percentage, there are nearly always some who qualify their adverse opinion by the statement that they would return verdict of death wholly on eircumstantial evidence. Such opponents could not be counted upon against capital pun ishment.
 The antis count largely upon the woman vote and there feel they making bad calcu- laton If q woman believes that capital punish affords greater security to society. she is not going abandon that sheet anchor for fanciful sentimental theories.
