BERLIN, Jan. 26.-The Austro- German forces have captured the city of Kielce, in southern Poland. and now occupy the former Russian base. It has been from kle1ce that the Rus sians have launched every attack at Cracow and in spite of the efforts of the German-Austrian forces it has been held by the enemy up to the present time.
