Plans to Follow Cermany's Lead in
Bread War;" Dispatch from
Innsbruck Saws.

Special Gable 10 The Washington Herald.
Geneva. Feb. 2.-According TO a dis
patch from Innsbruck, Austria will fol-
low Germany's lead in the bread war.
Though possessing few submarines, Aus
tria will attack neutral shipping in the
Adriatic, and in fact is only awaiting
decisive orders from Berlin before be-
ginning operations.
1t also is reported that the Kaiser and
Emperor Franz Josef. with all the mem
bers OF their respective STATS. will hold
a conference shortly in town near the
frontier.
The kaiser's medical advisers have in
formed him that an operation is impera-
tive. but he refuses to allow II to be
performed as he fears it may prevent
him from personally directing the Ger
man campaign. The Kaiser Is having
trouble with his throat again.

Vigor, Says Petrograd.
UNREST FELT In RUSSIA
Germans Believed to Be Preparing for
New Offensive in West Poland
or Galicia.

| London, Feb. % (MondayJ.-A dispatch
to The Times from Petrograd says:
| In the Russian countermove il
East Prussia the fortresses of Novt
Georgiewsk and Ossowiec played a con.
spicuous part. acting as levers ir
thrusting backward German columns and
| safeguarding the Russian flank and
| threatening the communication of the
! two main German columns at OssOwIeC
| and AugustOwo.
| The whole German offensive from
East Prussia smacks rather of diversion
to conceal important movements in
| Galicia or West Poland
To the Galician front the Germans
evidently intend to direct their main eff

corps have been concentrated south OF

The Austrians are waiting southeast of
Cracow I in Bukowina
According to reliable information the
Germans have placed nearly ninety corps
in the field. Of which thirty-two are in
East and fifty-three in West Prussia.
This means that at least ten newly form
ed corps have appeared on this side
Russians Are Dissatisfied.
The situation created by the sudden
lrruption of Germans across the frontier
Of East Prussia has now passed its crit
zeal phase
1t would he idle to deny that the
sudden abandonment of the strip of
East Prussia which had been so long
held by the Russians and their appar-
entity precipitate retirement toward the
line OF the Niemen has caused a good
deal OF disappointment and some I'M
easiness in Russia. The people have
circulated rumoTs of gloomy COM
pleAion which not only were untrue.
but were devoid of a particle of juSti-
tiCatiOn. The utmost the Germans
could have obtained would have been
a local success without any perCeptf-
BILE effect on the course of the cam

show of energy. rapidly lost its mo-
mentum as the Germans left their own
boundary line and the network of rail-
ways which was the chief basis of their
strategy.
Further. il is concluded. they had
made no adequate preparations for an
rn;erl'rising aggressive in this direC-
ti"l. They probably aimed at nothing
more than series of raids which
would restore the integrity OF their
O"''I territory and disturb the OrEani-
cation of the Russian rear, thus pos
sibly revealing some weak spot which
would favor further development of
their plans

issued or other similar steps for the
safeguarding OF neutral shipping were
taken.
In view of the fact that Germany is
most eager for neutral shipping to en-
tel her ports with supplies much-need-
ed in that country. it is regarded as
incredible that the approaches to Ger
man ports should have been made
dangerous without adequate precau-
lions having been taken to safeguard
shipping. This is regarded as particu-
larly true in the case of the Evelyn.

The fact that the State Department.
after the President received the news
offcially. asked for a report both from
Walter Hines Page, the American Am
bassadOr at London. and James Gerard.

dicates that the United States wants
to know what Germany has to say
