ing to Information received by the
Russian war office
The fortress has been prepared for
siege and 1t is already invested It
constitutes the only fortification posi-
CiOn upon the Yistula river in posses
sion Of the Russians.
The immediate causes Of the evacu-
alton Of Warsaw. according 10 the
war Office. were 'the advances of the
enemy in great force on the roads to
ward Ostrov from Ostroleuka and
Rosen on the one hand and the pres
eDce Of large forces OF the enemy who
had broken across the Vistula river
between Ivaug0rod and Warsaw at
Natzievitze.7
a war Office official reviewing the
situation, said
The day before the evacuation We
already had abandoned the old brick
fortress of Ivangorod on the left side
of the Visula We sttll hold the right
bank Notifications, but lnasumCh as
this fort has lost its Importance with
the abandonment of the left bank Of
the position, strictly speaking the
only fortified point in our hands at
present is NoTo Ge0rgievsk.
According to information at hand
the enemy has been making every ef-
fort to enveIop The position and the
fortress has heen left 70 its own re-
sources, to which end it had long been
prepared.
Our armies in the forward theatre
Of war are gradually moving back TO

Vienna, aug t. (via London)-The
occupation Of Ivangorod yesterday by
AUzrro-Germau forces is announced in
an official telegram from the front
The evacuation of Ivangorod appar-
emily was admitted last night by Petro-
grad IN an official statement which
said. In the Ivaugorod district the
Russians have crossed to the right
bank of the Vistula. blowing up the
bridges behind them"
a statement issued later in the night
explained that the Ivangorod forts
were not properly constructed for
modern warfare. This statement was
made in reply to the Austrian claim
thar q great victory was achieved in
the Tvangorod capture" It further
states that all the provisions in the city
we're "methodicaIly removed, after
which the Russian rear guard blew up
The concrete bases supporting the brick
easements Of the forts, destroyed the
bridges and crossed the river.
Ivangorod is located at the confiu-
ance of the Vistula and the Vieprz
rivers II is situated on the railroad
running tor Fgukow. and Brest-Litovsk
and also on a line connecting with
Warsaw.
Russia Fears for Riga.
London, Aug. 6.-"The Russian war
Office has set aside S25,000000 TO help
pay the cost Of the removal Of War
saw mills and factories to the inter
5or Of the empire" says the Petrograd
correspondent Of the Times
The Warsaw retreat is less the di-
rect outcome Of engagements on the
Blonia line and in the Nowo Geor-
giewsk region than the result of the
strategic situation as a whole. In the
region Of Ostralenka and the mouth of
the Skwa the enemy threatened TO
cut our rear communications and de-
prlve as Of the opportunity of regroup-
ing. while by their offensive in the
Lomza district, which is beginning to
overshadow even the Vistuia front in
strategic importance. the Germans are
attempting 10 effect a deep envelop-
mert Of our forces on the Vistula
river. Should this offensive be further
developed it possibly will be directed
against BiaIystok and Brest-Litovsk
from the north It is quite likely Field
Marshal voE Nfackensen will transfer
his troops from the Chelm district TO
cooperate in this attempt, Another
factor was the auxiliary operations on
both sides of the Vteprz against Lu-
kov intended to cut the Iyangorod-
Lukow line
