Not Great Victory

This battle, however, was a small
affair when compared with what Ger
many and Austria claim they have
done to the Russians in Galicia. Their
reports tonight state that some thirty
thousand Russians were captured and
that a large number Of guns were
taken. There was no mention, how
ever, of any towns. such as Gorlic :
and Tarnow, which were close to the
front, being captured, which leads the
British military critics to the con-
cius1on that. while the German allies
nave won important local successes.
they have not driven the Russians
very far back. Should they succeed
in doing this, however, it is asserted
general retreat Of the Russians
would be imperatice and the whole
Carpathian offensive, on which the
Muscovites have spent as much time
and so many lives. would be com :.
pletely nullified.
