HAD RUSSIANS SURPRISED
Russian Officers Cannot Understand
Why Germans Did Not Push the At
tack Which They Agree Might Have
Been Successful at That Time.

Petrograd, Russia, Oct. 27.-Ra j.
able information received here from
Warsaw, giving a detailed history oil
the attempted German advance in
Russian Poland says that the Russian
generals are absolutely at a loss TO
explain what they call a German err
or in delaying a night attack untiI the
oportunity was lost.
At the same time however, the Rus
sian generals who are always frank
in admitting the achievements of ihe
enemy, express admiration of Gen
eral Won Morgen's lightning advance
of five German army corps over the
dilncult swampy region approaching
Warsaw from the southwest, The ap-
earance of the Germans in this quar-
ter was most unexpected since the
German net work of raj way systems
and the previously constructed plat
forms for heavy guns pointed to tho
probability of a German advance from
the northwest or west or from any
where except the southwest
The Germans made a grave error,
il is asserted, in not pursuuing the ad-
vantage derived from taeir unexpect-
ed advance which would have en-
abled them to approach within eisat
miles of Warsaw without their pres
ence being known,
For unknown reasons the Germans
suddenly decided to delay the attack
until morning which allowed the
siberian and other Russian reinforce
ments to protect the city Adequately.
Papers found in the possession OF
German officers indicated that the
general plan was to attack Warsaw
that night. One explanation for the
change in plan is that the Germans
failed to obtain the assistance of the
Polish element upon which they had
counted.
The Russian generals also admire
the Germans abrupt extrication when
they found themselves outflanked,
their retreat being so complete and
nrecipitate that the Russians were m
able TO overtake and engage the rear
guard in action for several miles. The
who.e affair including the whirwild
advance and retreat at present is a
puzzle to the Russians.
The inhabitants of Warsaw say that
the dropping of German bombs, whicf
never were very damaging, now has
ceased, and, reassured by the pres
ence of Russian reinforcements anc

gage the enemy. the life OF the cit,
