The Russians are now so sure OF
Galicia that they are organizing q
civil government for that region, as
we'll as for Bukowina, the Austrian
crown land of which they are com.
plete masters.
The Germans have retaliated to
some extent by penetrating the terri.
tory of Suwalki, in Russian Poland,
and farther to the north. But the Rus.
SLAMS are c%ontenting themselves with
defending their fortresses until their
work in Galicia is completed.
The Montenegrins and Servians are
reported to be meeting with success
and the M%ontenegrins now are ap.
preaching Sarajevo, capital Of Bosnia.
Loss Of Ships Causes Stir.
The exploit of the German cruiser
Emden in the Bay of Bengal has
caused quite a stir in England. Every
body is asking where was the British
fleet to allow the capture of six steam
ers, or in the first place to allow the
Emden to get away from the China
coast.
1t appears that it was only due tc
the warning of an Italian captain thai
more British steamers did not fall into
the hands of the Emden.
