SWEDISH PRESS AROUSED
Objects to Planting of Mines Along
Coast of Finland.

Stockholm, Dec. 10.--The Swedish
press is indignant over the planting
of floating mines along the coast of
Finland which has resulted in the
loss of three large Swedish steamers
and the drowning of forty men.
Navigation OF Finnish waters hith.
erto has been unimpeded and no warn
ing of the laying of mines has been
given. Captains OF Swedish steamers
reaching here declare they saw Ger,
man warships near the Finnish coast
Saturday and Sunday; consequently
the strewing of mines in these waters
Is credited to the Germans.
Traffic in Finnish waters is to be
discontinued until they have beer
swept for mines.

London. Dec 10.-The center of the

standstill in a strongly fortified posi-
ton, according to the official German
statement The statement adds that
east OF the Warta river the fighting
for Lowicz continues. The strain on
both sides has been terrific and the
losses heavy and it is believed that a
lull probably will set in soon on this
part of the battle front while the troops
recuperate.
The Russians continue to assert
that their retirement from Lodz was
a strategical necessity rather than a
defeat. but il will take fuTths de.
velopments to show whether thi; Lain
is correct or not. Twice driven from
Warsaw the Germans again are in
position to advance on the capital Of
Russian Poland, and even the British
press, which minimizes the impor'
tance oft # LodZ, points out
that ii is on the trunk line railroad be-
tween Kalisz and Warsaw, which line

point considerably to the east of LODI.
Viewing the lighting in the Lodz
region in retrospect 1t would appear
that Germany month ago had a
crushing victory almost within her
grasp and lost 1t by not being able to
unite her forces, while later the Rus

appear still generally true that the

than the offensive. the news that they
have made violent attack to the
south of Ypres indicates that they
have not abandoned the idea of break

II is said the pick OF the German
western army has been concentrated
for this latest effort. Attacks by the
