London, July 17.-Fighting of
grave Importance to Russia, in that
It presages an effort to surround the
main armies Of the Czar in Poland, is
reported in an official statement re-

All along front of more than g
thousand miles from Bukowina to

Teutonic allies are attacking, with
not much success. Russia says, but
gaining ground here and there and
evidently striving to force the Rus
slams into a hopeless position before
munitions and reserves can give
them a chance to resume the often
siVe.
Gen. Won Hindenburg, advancing
on Warsaw from North Central Po-
land, is making considerable pro-
gress. Gen. Won Mackensen is ad-
vancing all along the line in the
south, and what at first appeared q
movement purely for the purpose of
showing Roumania that the Russians
power was crushed, now is revealed
as tremendous drive to win a juno
ton with Hindenburg's army, prob
ably somewhere in the neighborhood
of Brest-Litovsk, from where an ad-
vance on Warsaw by the united arm
les would hold out a chance for sue
cess that did not exist when Hinden-
burg made his dash through Poland
In much the same way, and was only
checked by fresh, well armed and
victorious Russian troops.
The Riga expedition is no longer
discounted by the Russians More
and more German troops are being
poured into this northern region un-
til 1t has become one of the most
important battle fronts of the whole
line The capture of Lfhau by the
Germans did not worry Petrograd
much, but the fall of Riga would be
an entirely different matter. Riga
is Russia's second naval base.
