Guns in the Notifications at the

What the War Moves Mean
By J. w. T. Mason, Former European Man
ager of the United Press.

With the way to Berlin so effectively
blocked by the genius of Won linden
burg, it is becoming evident that
threat against Budapest is the next
best contribution to the allied cause
that Russia can make.
II the Russians have decided to at
tempt a new invasion of Hungary as
their chief offensive for the present.
this would explain the contradiction
concerning t-e Cracow siege which
prevails in Petrograd dispatches. One
message says the Russians are rails
ing their investment of the former
capital OF Poland for the purpose OF
reinforcing Warsaw defenses: another
dispatch asserts heavy reinforcements
are moving toward Cracow. A recon
ciliation of these two movements
would result if a new Hungarian CAM
paign is Planned. In that case troops
withdrawn from Cracow would not be
for use at Warsaw, but would be un-
der instructions for Carpathian Of
fensive: similarly reinforcemen ents sup
posed at Petrograd to be moving on
Cracow. would have Hungary as their
real objective. Petrograd has consist
emily shown itself to be badly inform
ed concerning developments of the
campaign and the actual reason for a
new movement of troops in the Gal
ician area might well be ministerpret-
ed by Petrograd correspondents. al
though the bare fact of a rearrange-
ment of forces might be known. II is
possible this is what has occurred in
the present instance and the new Gal
ician activity in reality means new
Hungarian campaign is being ar.
ranged afresh.

NEW YORK, Dec. "a. (t1 a. nj
Austria's official announcement that
the Servian campaign has been aban-
the complete success of the amazingly
developed Serb counter offensive. But
more significant than this, is the sue
cession that Austria is unable to con
tinue the campaign in Servia. Re
sumption of attack would have been
coupled with a declaration OF defeat.
That such is not the case, strongly
suggests a pressing need for Austrian
reinforcements in Galicia. More
troops, seemingly must be hurried
north to the Carp athians instead OF
south to Servia, for which reason, the
invasion.
Berlin confirms this impression by
announcing the development of a new
Russian aggressive movement in Gal
icia and particularly along the Car.
pathians. The most important task
of the war for Austria is to keep the
Hungarian side of the Carpathians free
of Slavs. Otherwise the discomfort in
Hungary will probably reach CLIMAX
causing the separatist movement to
develop into an open revolt against
the Hapsburg rule.
since Hungarian discomfort has
shown itself to be So susceptible OF
fermentation by Cossack invaders, it
would appear as if higher strategic re.
quirements demand the development Of
new Russian offensive in the Hun.
garian plains. This, seemingly, is
what the Slavs are now trying to do.

The Board Of Firemasters, in con-
junction with the Fire Committee Of
Council. Thursday viii consider final
ly the purchase Of fire engine for
the Eighth Ward.
At a joint session "wednesday 1t
was concluded that the board was
unable to purchase two engines as
originally intended because of an err
ror said to have been made in the
apportionment sheet. It was found
that $4,000 allowed the Seventh Ward

did not provide for the purchase of

The question OF purchasing Mozely

enth Ward delegation. They am
nounced that at the next meeting Of
Council IA resolution would be offered
whereby the $4,000 could he used for
the purchase of the land, instead of
being used for the fire department.
This placed the fire board in a guam

make the purchase of one engine and
to ask Council at it's next meeting to
transfer sufficient money for another
one.
