That the Russian arms have been victorious in Galicia within the past several days is the essence of dispatches sent out from Petrograd. General Ivanoff, the hero of Tar nopol and Trembowla, is given the credit for the victories, his name being on the tongue of everyone in Petrograd.
 It is stated in the dispatches that the Russians have advanced their Galician lines for distance of 30 miles It is further stated that the Teutonic forces are retreating all along a 50-mile battle line.
 All Russia. is celebrating the vic tory of General Ivanoff. The inhab- itints Of this city feel that it is the beginning of another campaign such as that which was so disas- lrous to the Austrians last winter The Russian government has au- thorized a large issue of paper money, which is now in circulation
 War on Serbia, on the part of Bulgaria, has now been formally declared according to Parisian dis patches. Bulgaria has an army of 250,00 men in the field, and it is believed that they will soon be dis patched against Serbia. Other dis patches, however, are to the effect that Bulgaria will keep her troops at home in order that she may pro- tect herself from the Russians, who are stated to be intending to at tack the Bulgarian coast The Bull garians are also stated to be ap prehensive of the fact that Rou- mania may enter the war on the side of the allies, which it is stated in Paris dispatches, she will surely do
 Dispatches from Amsterdam assert that the allies have just concuded one of the most successful lombard ments on the German lines and sup ply depOts in the annals of aerial warfare. The Ghent aviation grounds were the chief object of the attack. the dispatches stating that they were almost completely destroyed All of the German hangars were de stroyed as were a large number of aeroplanes and few Zeppelins
 A German collier is reported to have been sunk by a British subma- line in Copenhagen dispatches
 A lull in the fighting on the west ern frontier is to be noted in the absence of dispatches indicating con- tinuous warfare. Paris reports, how ever, indicate that the Germans are reinforcing their lines on the western battle front, it being believ- ed there that the men are being brought from the Riga district.
 Dispatches from both Rome and Vienna tell of heavy fighting between the Italian and Austrian forces. An Austrian ammunition depot located in the Sexten valley was blown up today by the Italians during heavy bombardment of artillery. The Italian forces are reported to have been repulsed with heavy losses in an attempt to take Blaner ridge.
 An attempt is now being made on the part of the British and French to induce Japan to take hand in the European situation, according to dispatches from Tokio. It is stated that Jap troops are needed in the Balkan states to help repel the invasion of Serbia and the re- lief of Constantinople.
