Germany, Unchecked

London, Aug. p5.-An unofficial
dispatch received here from st. Pet
ersburg says:
"Russian troops numbering more
than 100000 men are being push

in the italian capital from st. Peters
burg declares that Emperor Nicholas
has gone to the headquarters OF the
Russian army, which has now taken
the offensive in full strength.
