RUSSIANS ADMIT

WHOLLY CRUSHED
Cars General Staff Sends
Heavy ReinfOrCementS to Gen.
RuSzky in Center-AnnOunCe
Capture of MikoIajaW.

PETROGRAD. Sept S.-The Rus
sian general staff admitted today that
the Austro- Hungarian armies had not
been completely shattered by the de-
cisive defeat near Lemberg. Official
reports from the Galician front stated
that the Austrians whipped near Lem
berg and those driven from Russian
Poland have succeeded in uniting and
with fresh troops from southern Ga
hcia have formed an army of 100000
men. which is advancing to give battle
TO the Russians near the Galieian-Po o.
lish frontier.
Heavy Russian reinforcementS are
being sent TO the assistance of Gen.
Ruszky. who has command of the
Russian center. He had detached part
of his forces for an investment of
Przemysl
Late reports from the front state
that the Austrian route east of Lem
berg was even more severe than had
been supposed. Gen. Ruszky notified
the general staff today that he had
taken 5000 prisoners.
Take City and 40 Guns.
The capture of Mikolajaw, , > miles
south of Lemberg, was officially an
nounced today. This clears the way
for an attack on PrZemysl from the
SOulnGdSl. Al MlkOldJdW the fNuS,ltluS
took 40 guns that had been mounted
on the fOrtifications erected there.
About 1000 prisoners and a large
quantity of ammunition were also
taken.
The next decisive battle between the
Austrians and Russians probably will
take place in the vicinity Of LubaczOw
on the Lubazowaka river. The Russian
advance posts Drove the Austrian cav
airy westward from Rawa on Sunday
and the cossacks are reported TO have
been in contact with the enemys cav
airy at Basznia- Werchrata and Plaz-
owOn Monday. These towns are along
the line of the railroad leading to
Jaroslaw.
Austrians Poorly Equipped.
According to Austrian prisoners who
have arrived here, the armies Of Emp
eror Francis Joseph were sent into
the field poorly equipped. They say
that disease has already broken out in
the ranks and that It is impossible to
check its ravages because of the lack
of medical supplies.
The army cOmmissariat was also
weak, they declare, and on some days
the soldiers in eastern Galicia had
practically no food because of the
failureOf supply trains to arrive.

GERMAN ATTACK ON
ANTWERP IS EXPECTED
TermOnde, Taken by KaiSer'S
TropS After Desperate
Battle, is Burned.

ANTWERP, Sept. S.-A German at
tack on Antwerp is an immediate
probability. It was officially announced
today that forces OF the enemy had
assaulted the Belgian army front
along the southwest front, but that
they had been repulsed with heavy
losses
ct will be recalled that when the
Germans first invaded Belgium. the
war office, then stationed at Brussels,
announced repeated victories over the
kaiser's troops that subsequent devel-
opments disproved)
Antwerp is now isolated from the
rest Of Belgium. communication with
towns except those in the extreme
north being severed. At last reports
the Germans were reported marching
on Ghent. That town may have been
taken.
Termonde Is Burned.
TermOnde, which was taken by the
Germans after a desperate resistance
by small force Of Belgians, has been
burned, according to refugees who ar
rived here today. Large numbers Of
wounded are being brought TO Ant
werp. They give a thrilling descrip-
tiOn OF the fighting at Termonde. Ac-
cOrding to their stories, the Germans
have blown up the bridge over the
river Escaut, apparently with the in
tention OF preventing forces of the
allies from coming to the help Of Ant
weTp when il is invested.
Hundreds OF Germans were in Ter
monde when the dikes were opened.
Another official statement issued by
the war office says that the inhabitants
of Iiege have been forbidden to leave
their homes for three days.
This is probably due 10 hide the
fact that large numbers of troops are
returning TO Germany exhausted and
are being replaced by reserves" the
statement adds

"If they continue at this rate we

Germans Are Destitute.
Many Germans are destitute in Ber-
lin. The war has thrown them out Of
work, and they have no money for
food for their families and them
selves. Conditions are growing worse
daily, according to the Americans.
Many of the poor Germans are sub
sisting on one meal a day and that is
a meagre one. The government is
doing everything possible TO feed the
destitute. but the task is a colossal
one.
The American relief committee in
Germany allows 81 cents per day TO
the stranded Americans. This allows
them but little owing TO the high
prices prevailing.
