(Via the Hague to London)
LODI, the great manufac-
turing center of Poland, is
today a city of want and
misery. Beautiful young
girls are offering TO sell
themselves into white slav-
cry in the hope of gaining
food and shelter.
Lodz' population is 5Oo,-,
900. It's factories are closed
and 10000 men and wo-
men are idle. Even if there
was a market for their prod
ucts the factories could not
be operated, for lack of
coal. The petroleum sup
ply is exhausted also.
The food shortage has result.
ed in appalling conditions.
Bread 10 selling at 30 cents

Great crowds stand for hours
In front OF the bakeries, waiting
for q chance TO buy the little

RUSSIANS WIN

TEUTONS FLEE IN DISORDER
Kaiser's Forces Reported to Be Re
treating Towards the East Prus-
sian Frontier-Armies Rush
20 CracoW.

London, Oct. 5.-An Exchange dis
patch from Petrograd says it is official
ly announced that the battle between
Russians and Germans at Augustowo
came to an end on October with a
great Russian victory. The enemy is
in a disorderly retreat toward the
East Prussian frontier
On the east bank of the Vistula and
in Galicia there is no change in the
situation.
The Berlin official statement says:
In the eastern theater the advance
of the Russian forces across the Me
men in the direction of Suwalki is
imminent"
Armies Rush to CraCoW.
The concentration of all eastern
armies-Russian, German and Aus
trian-continue in the direction Of
Cracow. The kaiser is reported to be
massing the flower of his forces in
Silesia, ready for the Cracow battle;
and the fighting in East Prussia, SUI
Walk and Russian Poland is slacken-
ing. Commenting upon this situation,
the Petrograd correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph writes:
1T is supposed that the German
attacks along the Niemen and the
Bobr, where on the latter river they
continue to lombard the fortress of
Ossovetz, may only be intended to
gain time for gathering in force in
Silesia, where they probably hope to
arrest the Russian advance into Hun
gary.
"A dispatch from German head
quarters says that the Third Siberian
and parts of the Twenty-second Rus
sian army corps have been defeated
near Augustowo, Russian Poland, after
two days of fighting"
Kaiser Makes Speeches.
The kaiser himself is reported to
have been travelling along the east
ern German frontier making speeches,
especially at Bromberg and Thorn,
predicting "the inevitabNe victory of
German culture"
