DOUBLE FORCE IN
ChLICIANADV
Germans Claimed to Have Been Check
ed by New and Stronger Line OF
Russians.

Petrograd, June ., 11:3O a. m, (via
London, I:35 ?. m.)-Further discus
sion OF the evacuation of Przemysl
brought out the claim in Petrograd to-
day that the Germans doubled their
forces operating on their southeastern
front during the Galician advance and
that fresh troops and artillery are still
being sent in. Most of the reinforce
ments are being directed toward the
Russian left flank in the Dniester re-
gion, this having become since the
abandonment of Prezmysl the chief
point Of the Austro-German attack
The movement of the German center
appears 10 have been stopped ten
miles east of Przemysl, and elimina
ton of irregularities of the Russian
alignment has, according to Russian
militarists adyantageously shortened
their front from so to Is miles. The
front line from Gussakow to Voldava
previously was long and irregular be
cause OF the necessity Of including the
ring of the Przemysl forts. Then it
was so miles long. Now il is
straight line between the two points
and not more than > miles long.
With this center of the Galician oper-
ations marking time. the Germans are
described here as being forced back
san. and as advancing toward the
Dniester fortifcations on their right.
This gives the situation as a whole the
of q slow pivoting movement,
with Przemysl as the center

THE WAR TODAY

German airships crossed the North
sea last night and dropped bombs on
the east and southeast coasts OF Eng
land. The censor has permitted no
details but it is reported from London
that little damage was done and ap-
parently the casualties were not num-
erous.
Five more British vessels have been
sunk by German submarines. with no
loss Of life. The crews OF two trawlers
were permitted 10 embark on a third,
which was spared by the Germans.
Preparations for a new German as
sault on the western front are reported
10 be under way II is believed in Lon
don that. following the fall Of
PrzemysI. the Germans may undertake
a serious offensive movement il France
or Belgium. Along the western end
of the line. north Of Arras, reinforce
ments have been brought up b. the Ger
mans. and the allies have been driven
from some positions gained in the re-
cent fighting.
In Galicia heavy fighting continues
all along the front. From the Vienna
reports il would appear that the Aus
armies were still sweeping
back the Russians. The Petrograd
war Office. however, advances claims of
success in several engagements, and
apparently the Russians have been
able TO maintain their front TO the
east OF PrzemysL.

GIVES RENEWED HOPE
Special Messenger On Way to
Garry American Ultima
tum to General Villa.

Ell PasO, Texas, June 5.-Possi-
biIity that President Wilson'S re-
cent note to Mexican leaders
might result in a reapproachment
between General Carranza and
General villa was being discussed
in Mexican circles here today. 1t
was stated authOritatively that at
the suggestion of a high Villa
official on the border a request
has gone to Elisio ArredOndo, the
CarTanza representative at Wash
ington. to outline some basis for
an understanding.
II was admitted that leaders of
both factions here and In Jaurez
have discussed the subject infOr-
maIIy but none would venture a
prediction as to what basis for an
understanding eventually might
he reached.
No word had been received from
Villa mp to noon as TO his views
of President Wilson's note.
