army P0WER[ESS
TO HINDER CAMPAIGN ON GERMANY
Maintained That Russia Has Rid Itself of One Problem in
Dealing With Kaiser's Eastern Forces-Terrifc
Losses of Josephs Armies.

London, Sept. 16.-Three important
facts are outstanding in the Russian
situation:
First-The Russian armies in East
Prussia, If not definitely defeated,
have. at all events. retreated to the
frontier.
second-An of1cial reports agree
that the Austrian armies have been so
disintegrated that they no longer con-
stitute a grave military problem for
Russia.
Third-1t is officially reported that
the czar's program ignores Vienna
and calls first Of all for march to
Berlin.
The extent Of the Russian reverses
known. Petrograd dispatches deny
that the situation is anything like as
bad as the Berlin reports would indi-
cate.
These dispatches, while admitting
that the Russians have been driven far
back in East Prussia, fighting lately
as far east as Goldap, claim that the
German advance is now at stand
still.
Austrians' Stores Destroyed.
vistula to attack the rear Of the re-
treating Austrians, have destroyed
great quantities Of the Austrian stores,
and are threatening the entire line Of
communications of, the enemy in the
region north of Galicia- Whether that
body of Austrians is captured or man
ages to retreat successfully, 1t is con-
sidered that Austria cannot again seri-
ously menace the Russian campaign
against Germany. The Russians, hav-
ing outfianked the Austr1ans. are
crossing the San In Galicia in great
force. capturing many guns and pris-
oners.
The Times says reasonable esti-
mate of the Austrian losses thus far
in Galicia is 100000 men killed,

wounded or captured, nearly one-third
of their army. They have also lost a
total Of about 1000 pieces of artillery,
more than two-thirds of all they had.
The broken remnants of the Aus
trian armies are rendered doubly weak
by this, poverty of field guns.
Siege of Przcmysl Expected.
The Austrian army retreating on
Przemysl is accompanied by about 4O,-
900 Germans, one army corps. 1t is
reported to be part Of the Russian
strategy to leave the wa6 into Pre-
mysl open for large forces of the en-
emy, since adequate measures have
been taken for the complete invest
ment Of that fortress, and the greater
the numbers Of the enemy held there
the less will be the enemy's field force.
A prolonged siege Of Przemysl is ex-
pected.
The Russians are now, according to
official statement, within one days
march of Przemysl.

SWISS EXPORTS
FIND OUTLET

Washington, Sept. 16.-Unoficial
advices to the Swiss legation yester-
day report that the safety Of a COM
mercial route for Swiss exports
through Germany and Rotterdam has
been guaranteed. That would permit
expectation from Switzerland of silks,
watches, watch parts and chemicals,
said to be much needed in the United
States, although there is said to be
a shortage in Switzerland of raw ma
terfals. Other advices to the legation
say 10000 men comprising the Swiss
landstrum, called out several weeks
ago, have been demobilized, which is
expected to facilitate the resumption
of industry in Switzerland.

Rnsslans take credit.

Petrograd, Sept. 16.-Colonel
Shumsky, the military correspondent
OF the Bourse Gazette, says 1t is fair
to conclude that the Russian successes
on the Austrian front and the Russian
movement in east Prussian were the
primary causes of the victories of the
Anglo-French army. The shocks ad-
ministered by the Russian army, he
declares, have been SO powerful that
the Germans were obliged to recall a
portion Of their troops from France,
thereby facilitating the French task.
Colonel Shumsky thinks that the Ger
mans will attempt to seek consolation
In a useless blow which they are striv-
inR to deliver in east Prussia, where,
he says, there are no serious military
objectives for decisive operations.

according to reports current in oficial
circles here today. This action was
decided on following 4 straight warn
ing from England that IL Turkey par
ticipated in the war 1t would be elm
mated forever as an Independent ma
ton. The news Of Franco British VIC
tories in the recent fighting was also
= factor. 1t Is stated that, in return
for its neutrality, Turkey will demand
that the powers recognize It's right to
abolish the, extra. territorial conven-
tons heretofore given to the powers.

Expert military observers in Petrograd declared
that the Russian investment of Koenigsberg and Gen

planned with the deliberate intent of compelling Ger
many to detach of her forces from France to the
