Line of Communication
Is Severed by Allies
Br ASSocintcd Press

London, Sept. TO, 2.10 a. m.-The
correspondent of the Daily Telegraph
in France. describing the turn of the
tide in favor of the allied forces. saws:
From trustworthy sources it is re-
ported that we have already cut part
of the German line of communication
in the east, and it seems highly prob
able that we shall soon be able to
drive them back upon their ammuni-
tion and supply column.
ut now seems certain that the
German advance, which so scared us
last week. was the throwing forward
of screen of cavalry to mask the
enemy's flanking movement eastward.
and that they had no present intention
of investing Paris.
while the great battle is raging
to the eastward of Paris. the western
region of France is gradually being
relieved of Germans"

May Arrive Too Late

England had looked hopefully for
the Russian steam roller to get un-
day way, but the impetus which the
Russian army in the eastern theater
of the war already has acquired has
surprised even tie military experts.
The movement of the Russian advance
has been so speedy that the German
divisions advancing on the Vistula are
hardly likely to arrive in time to as
sist their sorely pressed ally in Cali
cia.
Reports from Petrograd indicate
that the Russian armies already are
driving the Germans before them on
the western bank of the Vistula. In
this region the only base left for a
sallying point for the Austrian and
German forces is Cracow, the old
capital of the Kingdom of Poland,
situated in Galicia not more than thir-
ty miles from the frontier of Silesia.
If this place falls before the onslaught
Iof the Russians, 1t is felt in London
that the annihilation of the Austro-
German armies in the southeast may
result.
The Russian advance now occupies
almost straight line from Koenigs-
berg on the Baltic in East Prussia, to
Cracow. If Austria is disposed of
ia tremendous battle line from 200 to
800 miles long may sweep into the
German empire.

sion has fallen like bombshell on the
English public, who up to the present
time have not been permitted to
know how hard pressed their army
has been.
