GERMANS BREAK THROUGH
TRAP PLANNED BY RUSSIA
development Not Expected but Situation Is Almost Un-
precedented," Official PetrOgrad Report States
KAISER MASSES HIS FORCES IN BELGIUM

Petrograd, (via London).-A review
Of the military operations in the last
week at LODI, as given out semi-off-
cially here, indicates that the Ger
man Army under Gen. Won Mackensen
has been cut in three parts.
The right wing is still struggling
fifteen miles west southwest OF LODI
in an attempt to unite with the column
sent TO its assistance from Wielun-
The centre is ten miles northeast by
north of LODI, and is still engaged
in desperate effort to cut its way
west TO rejoin the left wing, which is
partially cut from the strongest posi-
ton on the Vistula. This army the
review asserts, is moving back before
Russian onslaughts, but is stubbornly
disputing the Russian advance.
In this quarter the Russian advance
is from Gombin, fifty miles north Of
Lodz. IL is estimated that the centres
Of the three parts Of the German
force are at least twenty miles apart
and that the middle one is acting
entirely on its own initiative. being
completely isolated from the others.
II is said that the main bodies Of
the German wing are maintaining a
thin line of communications 10 the
rear, extending in semi-circular shape
a distance of forty miles. Russian
experts declare this situation is almost
Unprecedented In the history OF war
fare In the opinion of these experts
the operations will not result in the
complete surrounding Of the Germans.
but they declare that the purpose Of
the German campaign against War
saw has been entirely frustrated.
The Germans are estimated TO
have lost 100000 in dead alone since
the heavy fighting began ten days
back along the banks OF the Bzura and
swung round TO the present arena
near LODI.
In the last eight days the Russians
in Galicia have captured nearly 40
GOO Austrian prisoners, with guns,
maxims and stores.
From Berlin comes an official state
ment saying that the Russian advanc-
es near LODI have been checked and
that the Germans have made success
full counter attacks. An unofficial re-
port from Thorn says that Field Mar
shall Won Hindenburg has captured CO.
600 Russians and $50 cannon and ma
chine guns.
