feat Of Austrians In carpathlans-
Cars Advance In East Prussia Is
Checked.
LONDON ENG. Dispatches
from Lemberg. according to the Reuter-
correspondent at Petrograd, say that
the Russian heavy artillery is bonn
harding Prezmysl and gradually de-
stroying the fortress and the town,
where the shells set fire 4 many hous-
csc. All the Austrian efforts to re-
lieve the garrison have failed and
their attempts, the correspondent adds
have resulted in considerable losses.
The advance guard OF the two
armies in southern Poland have come
into contact and both claim the VIC
tory. In the first skirmish, the Vienna
general staff says, the Austro-German
army invading Poland from Cracow
forced the Russians to retreat from
opatow and Klinontow and is starting
to force them TO retreat from the Riy-
49, S-rr~~Tv7-~ ~-e
:" esy Australians Are Repulsed.
The Russian official reports simply
announce that this operation Is occur
ring without giving any result, but
Rome dispatches say fatty that the
Austro-G erman attack on the Russians
massed along the banks of the Dunaiec
and threatening Cracow was repulsed
and that the attacking column was
driven back with heavy losses by the
Russian artillery fire from the op-
positc bank Of the Vistula, which, be-
ing in food. could not be crossed.
The Russians also claim TO have
defeated an Austrian detachment in
the Carpathians west OF the river San
ski. capturing machine guns and pris-
onsrs.
Russians Advance Checked.
ON the East Prussian frontier the
Russian advance into German terri
tory, after their defeat OF the Germans
in Russia, seems to have been check
ed, the Germans having brought up re-
endorsements from Koenigsburg. They
arc offering a stubborn opposition on
the Yaadislavoff -Ratchka front. The
former place is on the East Prussian
frontier, just north of the Eykuhen
border station on the Berlin & Petro-
grad railway, SO that the Russians
have regained most Of their own terri
tory, while the Germans appear TO
still be in Russia north OF Suwalki.
The next big battle, however, Is
looked for in southern Poland.
