LONDON. June 19.-Oficai despatohss
Just received from Vienna and the east
ern battle front state that the Austro-
German forces have occupied Grodek,
sixteen miles west of Lemberg. and
also the town of KomaIno, twenty miles
south OF the capital
The Russians are said to have re-
tired to a prepared position six miles
to the east, ten miles from Lemberg,
where they will endeavor to make a
stand
The position taken up by the Russians
has on its TANKS the marshes Of
the Dniester and the swamp lands OF
the Grodek lakes. The Russians com
mand the three lines OF railway from
the west as we'll as the wagon roads
over the swamp lands. However, from
where the stand has been taken It is
possible for the Austrian and German
field guns to reach the defences OF
Lemberg itself. which they will shell
at long range.
In the meantime the Austro-German
. forces are closing in on Lemberg from
three sides. Gen. Won Mackensen has
come straight east, and from the north
west another column is advancing
southwest through Jaworow. The cap
ture of Komarno indicates that Gen. vou
Linsingen's forces have overcome the
Russian opposition in that quarter and
are moving north from the Dniester.
To-n!ght's official statement from
Vienna as telegraphed here by way OF
| Amsterdam is as follows:

Text Of speech.

Mr.. Bryan read his prepared speech
tho one he lad written in advance for
the newspapers. This speech wac as
follows:
II could find no more favorable aus
pices under which to begin the work
which | feel 1t my duty to perform
namely, to aid in the crystallizing of the
sentiment in favor OF peace in support
of the President in his efforts to reach
an amicable settlement OF all differences
that may during the war arise between
this country and bellgerent Powers
THE auspices are favorable because
no portion OF our community is more
deeply interested in the prevention of
war than that element known as the
labor element, an honorable appellation
which implies compliment to rather
than a reflection upon those to whom
1t Is applied
There is no reason why any citizen
OF this country should desire war and
l am sure that the number OF those
who do actually desire II Is infnltcsi-
mally small, This class Is made UP of
those who have n pecuniary interest I'm

and desiring peace In the abstract, mag
Nifty international differences. They be-
