NO CHANCE FoR GERMANS
TO WINTER IN POLAND

Especial Gable to The Times Dispatch
LONDON, November LILY their
vigorous offensive. the Russians have
upset any calculations the German gen.
cral STAFF may have formed OF winter
ing in Poland and utilizing the re-
sources of that country.
What, Is the net result OF all thcao
operations?
AT three points the Russians hayo
penetrated German territory, but too
much Importance should not be at
tached to these raids. The Russian
army is preceded by hordes OF Cossacl Il
cavalry, who ride as far ~ 100 miles
ahead OF the main nrmies; they can
easily penetrate the frontier. hut the
invasion OF German soil only conf
merces when the main armies como
Into line.
The real difficulties OF the Russians
arc now commencing. The German
armies are now fighting along the
frontier, which has been prepared for
prolonged resistance on their own soil.
They have good roads and n network
Of strategical railways, which enable
them to concentrate at any threatened
points.
They probably have destroyed the rail-
roads In Poland, and the roads in that
country are merely rough tracks, which
have been cut to pieces, SO the task OF
pushing through Poland armies of SUI
tlcient sizo to cope with tho German
defense will DO enormous.
One cannot hope to goo q big battle
on the frontier for several weeks
! There has been reorganization after
the recent lighting, tho AustrIans up
parently abandoning the whole OF Ga.
| licja, and holding tho passes over the
Carpathians, 80 as to harass the tianls
Of the Russian advance on Cracow.
! Przemysl is certainly doomed, and
then will como harder nut to crack
Cracow.
Even the Russian cavalry excursions
over the frontier Will have an enormous
moral erect OH the German people
The arrival of a thousand refugees In
Berlin, fleeing from the imaginary hor-
ror of the Cossack, Will count for more
than n battle lost.
