PETROGRAD. December &c, via Lon
don. 5. p.m.-The war expert of the
Novoe Vremya, in a summary of the
war published today, refers to what he
calls the collapse of the Austrian
campaign in Galicia; the lack of CO.
hesion on the part of the German
armies to thetnorth of Cracow and the
dogged perseverance, but with waning
spirit of the Germans at Socha czew,"
which he says describes the situation
in Poland.
Going into detail this observer says
The lack of success of the Austrian
army on the Sanok-Lisko front devital-
lied all the Austrian operations in Gal
icia. The fate of Przemysl has been
d weghty factor with the Austrian
general staff. which placed great I'M
portance on the cooperation of the
garrison in this fortress with the army
advancing through the Pezlaboretz
pass. The unsuccessful sorties of the
garrison of the fortress and the failure
to effect a junction with the field army
caused the collapse of the entire Aus
trian plan. The PrZemysl 'sorties were
the last feverish efforts of the garri-
sons expiring energy.
Following the failure of the Aus
trian army on the Sanok -Lisko line,
the writer in the Novoe Vremya goes
on. their entire campaign weakened, sc
that our counter attacks became more

ratlonS are conveyed to the trenches.
Each wagon contains. as a rule, two
rations for 1900 soldiers. made up in
as many separate packets.
Packers Careless.
Ihe packers are, however, sometimes
careless and lazy, and in order to get
over their work quickly, will, unless
supervised by an attentive officer, skip
numbers when counting the packets,
with the result that the soldiers in the
trenches get short rations. One packer
tried this dodge to get through his
| work quickly when the prince was
supervising the packing.
"Twenty-hve.' shouted the packer,
! and glanced at his royal highness
| Il make it twenty" said the prince
quietly.
Now. just unload the whole wagon
and count all the packets again"
