RUSSIANS PRESS DEFEATED GER. MAN ARMY TOWARD THE SILL
 lClAN FRONTIER.
PUSHING AUSTRIANS BACK
Mighty Armies of the Czar Continue to Chase the Enemy--Many War Vessels in Harbor at Tsein Tau When Port Was Captured.

London, Nov 7-9:27 D. m.-With
 the exception of the fall of Tsing Tau
 the most significant report from any
 of the battle fronts today, and the most welcome from the allies point of view, is that the Russian armies be- sides driving the Ausuidns back in Galicia, have reached the Waithe river in Russian Poland and estab- lished themselves on the east Prus sian frontier.
 In fact the Berlin official repor, says some Russian cavalry crossed | the Warthe but were driven back. To this the Russian report adds that the town of Warta on the Warthe river in Poland, has been occupied and that a German column has proceeded wesV ward through Czenstochowa, which is very near the Silesian frontier The Russians, too. are responsible for the report that they have de. feated the Germans near Miawa il. Poland. just across the east Prussia. boundary, and at Lck in East Prussia
 Military observers here say the Russians have followed the retiring Germans at a very much faster pace than was anticipated and that if they are il force they may be able to pre- vent the Germans from taking up their new positions on the Warthe and compel them to fal back to the Silesian border.
 Despite all this, reports persist that the Germans are sending large mum. bers of their troops who have been l fighting in Poland, westward to op. pose the allies in France and Belgium That they would do this with enor- nous Russian forces threatening theit own richest territory military men lere say, seems highly improbable unless the Germans are satisfied that small force can prevent the Rus sians from entering Silesia and East ! Prussia.
 In the west the same dingdoag | fighting which has been going on for months continues The Belgians who hold the lines along the coast, are being given a comparative rest after their three months of almost contthn- ous fighting. The Germans still are concentrating around Ypres, where they are trying to hack their way through the Ango-F'rench troops that bar their way to the coast. Both sides claim to have made progress here. the Anglo-French forces to the southeast of the town and the Ger mans to the southwest. Correspond ents in the rear of the armies say that the fighting, which has exceeded in fury any that preceded it has not ap- preciably lessened and that both sides are using a tremendous weight of ar tiHery in an endeavor to clear the ground for an advance of their in- | fantry.
 Both armies are being reinforced. ! It seems to be realized that the Ger
