maintained. 1t is rumored in Petrograd
tnat Gen. Won Mackensen has driven
the Russians from LODI and has pressed

The encouraging feature Of the situa-
ton on the eastern front Is that the
Austro-German armies have been un-
able to relieve either Cracow or Pre-

that II the Russians can hold on for
