Reliable news of the progress of the

An unofficial dispatch from Petrograd
says the battle OF I4odz has ended in
success for the Russians. but this state
ment contradtcts the Berlin official re-
port. which says tho German offensive
In Poland is taking Its normal course.
The fact is that fighting In this re-
gion has developed into such tumble
that 1t is almost impossible to follow

allies point is that the German ad-
vance on Warsaw seemingly has not
succeeded in it's object, nor has It di-
verted the Russians from their forward
movement through the Carpathians and
on to the plains of Hungary or against
the fortress of Cracow. around which
they are drawing II closer ring OF men
and artillery.
EARLY FALL OF CRACOw
IS NOT LOOKED FOR
Taking into consideration the case
of Przemysl, which has held out SO
long against the Russian attacks. MILL.
tary men do not look for the early fall
of Cracow, and are inclined to believe
armies of Emperor Nicholas will en-
deayor to keep the large Austrian forco
inside the fortress. and enter Silesia
from the southeast. ~
Much depends. however, on the bat
tie being fought with such intensity
further north between the Rivers WIS.,
tula and Warthe. and In which all
agree the losses on both sides have
been heavy. There is an inclination
to believe that, had there been prob
ability OF an early success for the Ger

who has returned to Berlin, would
have remained to witness the victory.
