Petroqrad Admits Reverse.

Petrograd, Dec. S.-The sanguinary
conflict in Poland continues without
cessation. Fighting goes on night and
day, according to advices received In
this city from the front.
A dispatch from Warsaw says that
LODI, the prosperous manufacturing
city about which the hardest fighting
has centered for ten days, Is burning.
The war office stated that no de-
cision had been reached in the great
struggle in Poland, but said that all
the German attacks made on Sunday
had been repulsed.
The announcement indicated that
the Russians had been compelled to
assume the defensive. It is known
that the Germans have received heavy
reinforcements and the violence of the
attack may have forced the Russians

The following details have been re-

intervals, setting many fires. So dense
was the smoke by day and so bright
wer the flames at night above the city
that 1t appeared to be completely
doomed.
1.-THE German attempts to break
through the Russian lines north of
LODI resulted in terrific fighting at
Zgierz, little manufacturing town,
five miles to the north. Machine guns
were mounted in the belfries of the
churches and upon the roofs of many
dwellings,. Trenches were dug in the
streets. Hand to hand fighting ragged
night and day, each side throwing for
ward fresh men to replace those thai
were cut down.
"Soon the streets were filed with
dead from curb to curb and the deal
were used as breastworks. Houses
collapsed beneath the pounding OF
shells and bombs. Fire drove soldiers
from their barbados and the battle
ragged backward and forward through
the suburbs until they, too, were blast
ed and surrounded by dead. When the
battle line was advanced the dead
were left where they fell"

French and English to bring heavy

The French military authorities,
through their agents and spies,i are
well informed as to the extent of the
German losses.
The French estimate the number of
German killed in battle on this from
tier as considerably exceeding 100000,
because the German tactics have been
more continually on the offensive,
