The retreat Of the Austrians after

ter Of a disordcrly flight and panic.

Lembcrg. The surrounding forts did
not stop the advance. Lemberg was
closely surrounded and captured with
an enormous quantity of war material.
All tho buildings in the town were
packed with Austrian wounded who had
been abandoned in the headlong flight.
Besides the enormous political and
administrative importance OF Lemberg
as the centre of Galicia, Its capture is
very important from a strategic point
of view. as it constitutes n great rail-
way junction commanding the lines
leading 70 the rear of the Austrian
armies which are now halted on the line
from Opoe to Zamosc and Belzec.
