Pe.rograd, Nov. 18.-Where will
Germany make stand? Indications
at present point to her concentration
in the vicinity of Strzelne. Reinforce
ments are being hurried forward from
that town to the frontier. Reports
tell of military activity in this area
as far north as Thorn.
1t would seem that the Germans
hope to advance with the Vistula on
one flank and the Warthe river on the
ether. The country is higher than the
marsh land in the interior of Poland
and offers better defensive positions.
The possibilities of an offensive
movement from this direction are well
known to the Russian staff. Already
operations to check it are going for
ward. All signs point to an ap-
preaching conflict which will be of
