 Able Maintain All Positions
 LONDON Nov 7.-With the excep. ton of Tsing Tau, the most signifi- cant report from any of the battle fronts today and the most welcome from the allies point of view. is that the Russians besides driving Austria back in Gahcia, reached the Wartbe River in Russian Poland, and estab- lished themselves on the East Prus. sian frontier.
 In fact the Berlin official report says some Russian cavalry crossed the Warthe, but will be driven back. To this the Russian report adds the town of Warta on the Warthe in Pol and is occupied. Russians. too. are responsible for the reports that they defeated the Germans near Mlawa, in Poland just across the East Prussian boundary. at Lyok in East Prussia.
 Military observers here say the Russians followed the retiring Ger mans at a much faster pace than was anticipated. If they are in great force they may be able to prevent the Germans taking up new positions on the Warthe, and compel them 10 fall back to the Siberian border
 Despite all this, the report persists that the Germans are sending large numbers of troops who have been fighting in Poland, westward to op- pose the Allies in France and Belgium That they would do this with enor- nous Russian forces threat ening their own rich territory, military men here seem to think highly improbable unless the Germans are satisfied a small force can prevent the Russians entering Silesia and East Prussia.
 In the west the same ding-dong fighting which has been going on for months continues. Belgians who hold lines along the coast are being given comparative rest after their three months almost continuous fighting. The Germans are still concentrating around Ypres. where they are trying 10 hack their way through the Anglo French troops which bar the way to the coast Both sides claim to have made progress here, the Anglo-French forces to the southeast of the town and the Germans to the southwest. Correspondents in the rear of the armies say the fighting which has exceeded in fury any preceded. has not appreciably lessened, and both sides are using tremendous weight of artillery in their endeayor to clear the ground for the advance of their infan- try
 Both armies are being reinforced. lt seems to be realized that the Ger mans cannot proceed further west be- cause of the cooperation of warships with land forces. and that route either here or further south must be found if the Germans are to attain their ambition of reaching the Freuch coast
 Elsewhere along the line the usual attacks and counter attacks have been delivered with success first for one. lNtn tue ututlf uuA MliuQAA man any material change in the situation.
 Things are moving slowly in the near East, so far as is known here The only news from there concerns the bombaTdment of the ports of Zung uldiak and Kuzulu on the Asia Minor coast of Turkey by the Russian fleet. and the sinking of several Turkish transports. It is also said the Rus sians occupied the entire region to the northeast of Eerzerum in Asia Minor Russia is said to be finding useful allies in the Armeaians who at last see hope Of being rid of the Turkish rule.
 Thereis no change in the political situation in the Balkans, none of the present neutral states having made any move It is said, however agita- ton has been renewed in Roumania ' for participation of that country in the war on the side of the Allies.
