LONDON, Nov. 20.-1n both London
and Berlin the present stage OF the
campaign in Russian Poland is regard
ed as highly important Germanys
advance in tho Warta Vistula country
is being watched with intense inter-
est. .
Petrograd, however, while Of course
vitality concerned, seems to be only in
differently interested.
Army headquarters Of Petrograd
announces that two great battles have
developed along eastern 'front.' one on
the line between Czenstochowa and
Cracow, apparently extending along
the railroad between these two points
and the second in the Warta Vistula
region but Russia observers do not
appear to attach much significance to
outcome in this latter region.
A general survey of the report re-
ceived here from all quarters conveys
the impression that the German ad-
vance on Vistula has met at least
with q temporary check, while the
Russian invasion of E. Prissia has
suffered q like fate near Angerburg
where German defenses consisting
chiefly of vertical lines of wire en-
tanglements are reported to be strong.
Berlin declares that a concentric at
tack is being made on the Russian
center the German army coming from
west and northwest while Austria is
sending a force north from Cracow re-
gion.
Petrograd, however, states that Of
fensive in western Galicia is still un-
der way and that Cracow is believed
to be, invested ON three sides leaving
only one line Of real communication
open.
In west Flanders operations appa-
1ently are at almost a standstill, artil-
lery duels and boat forays are tho
cnly features OF the military situa-
ton ther. The advent of the damp
and bitter cold weather with the dis
ease and privations incident to its
coming promises to make both the
eastern fronts scenes OF great suffer
ing Parallel for what may be witness
cd the coming winter are being sought
in the Napoleons retreat from Mos
COW.

BERLIN via Hague and LONDON
Nov. 20-"The Russians have numbers
on their side, but numbers alone are
not decisive factors. In the present
stage Of the war less than ever before
we are not afraid of Russian numert-
cal superiority. At Tannenburg the
Russians outnumber us three to one,

victory" ..
These are the views Of Gen. Won
Hindenberg, now facing the great
Russian war machine as he was press
ed in conversation with Berlin CORE
suondent. "The Russians" said Gen.
Won Hindenberg are good soldiers and
observe discipline, but discipline OF an
other sort than that of the Austro'
Bermans, which Is based on thinking
and the execution Of command. Whtie
Russian discipline is mere blind, dull
obedience. The Russians have learned
much since the Japanese war, parttcu'
lariy in science OF entrenching them
selves, but when the ground Is frozen
they will not be able to dig them.
selves in. Then they will have a bad
time OF it. That is one of the advan'
.tages the winter camping will bring
us, 1t is sad, but good thing that
war and sentimentality do not go to-
gether. The war with Russia is now
chiefly a question Of whose nerve
will snap first. II Austria and Ger
many have stronger nerve, and they
have. then they will be victorious.
