Teutonic Allies Cross the Dniester River South of Lemberg and Force Rus sians to Retreat
RUSSIANS BELIEVE
 BIG OFFENSIVE IS
 PRACTICALLY SPENT
French Continue Offensive in West, But Germans Claim to Have Repulsed Attacks

London, June S.-OO:30 D. m.) The big battle in Galicia has reached no decision. The Austro-Germans have crossed the Dnicster south of Lemberg and have assumed the of fensive farther to the south and, ac- cording to the Austrian official re- port, have pushed the Russians back between kolomea and kalusz in east ern Galicia.
 The operation was necessary before the Teutonic allies continued their ad- vance toward Lemberg. as Russian at tacks in the region of Kolomea were beginning to look dangerous, after Inc | Russians had as reported from pet- | rograd last week. inflicted a defeat on | the Austrians in this district British and Russian military opiniol Is that the Austro- Germans, after ths big effort. which reganed for them the greater part of Galicia have about exhausted themselves and the view Is expressed that they soon will have to | fortify n line on which they can with stand the Russian counter offensive. which already has made itself felt on the lower San.
 1 If the Russian positions really wera dangerous. these authorities say. the allies long ago would have taken tho l offensive in the west to relieve tho pressure on the eastern front. French on Offensive I It is true that the French have been attacking at number of points ee- tween Rheims and the district north of Arras and have gained some ground but the British are quiet and 1t haid- ly can be said that a general offensive
 in the west has begun. North of A1as the French have gained additional ground and north of the Aisne have re- pulsed four German counter attacks and extended their previous gains, | NThe Germans claim to have repuised some of the French attacks north of Arras and north Of soissons. | The British report all quiet on their l front but to the Zeppelin brought down yesterday they claim to have added two German aeroplanes as an offset to the destruction reported by the Ger mans. of an allied aeroplane near Douai.
 Italians Silent
 The operations on the Authorization | frontiers are screened by the censor ship. There are indications, however, that big battle Is imminent if it has not already begun. along the 1son- 70 river, where the Italians apparent- ly have decided to launch th&T prin- cpa1 attack. The Italian cavalr. have crossed the river and 1t was reported from Geneva today that they Nhad pierced the Austrian line.
 There also are reports that the alNN lies again have taken the offensive on the Gallpoli peninsula and have defeat- cd the Turks.
