five separate Teutonic armies began a
terrific onslaught on the Russian de-
fences. On Tuesday the army on the
southwestern front succeeded in break
ing through the advance positions of
the fortress.
The third Russian line of defence
upon which the defenders of Brest-

Georgievsk and Grodno are compelled
to retreat runs through the middle of
the country known as White Russia.
The line begins on the north of Riga,
on the Baltic. and follows the Dvina
River to Dunaburg, then turns south
and follows the railroad through Wilma,
Ida and Baranovichi. The line then
runs through the tractless swamps Of
Pinsk and the Pripet Rivsr to Rovno,
which lies 120 miles northeast of the
Galician capital, Lemberg.

Russia Thought Fortress
Was Strongest in Europe

The Russian fortress of Brest-
Litovsk, which has just capitulated to
the Austro-German forces, had been
considered one Of the strongest fort
resses in Europe, and was the southern
hase of the second Russian line of de-
FENCES to which the armies of Grand
Duke Nicholas retreated after the fall
of Warsaw. The citadel is situated on
the Bug River and at the junction of
several railways, 1871 miles south of
Grodno and 1870 miles due east of the
Polish capital.
The storming of Brest-Litovsk by the
1eutonc forces Is probably the most
important military achievement since
the fall of Warsaw three weeks ago
to-day. The town, which had a popu-
lation of about $4,000, was one of the
most important depots for and the dis
trbuting points of military supplies
near the western frontiers of Russia
proper The fortress was rated by
military critics as much more i'm
saw.
Fortress Is Railway Centre.
Brest-Litovsk is situated at the juno
tion of the Bug and Mukhovets rivers.
and the fortress OF the city was built
at the point of confluence. Ii lies on
the right bank of the Bug River, where
l. turns from the north to the north
east. interesting here are railroads
from Odessa. Kiev. Moscow, Warsaw,
Wilma and East Prussia.
Brest-Litovsk. according TO infor-
nation compiled BY the National Geo
graphic Society. contained one of the
oldest important fortresses in northern
Europe. The older Notifications were
erected about one mile east of Brest-
Litovsk and had circumference of
four miles. The field works were kept
up to date and everything possible had
been done BY Russia. il was said, to
make them unconauerable Brest-
Litovsk was generally regarded in
Russia as the most powerful individual
stronghold in the empire.
Russians Must Eetreat Again.
The capitulation of Brest-Litovsk
means. in the opinion OF military OBJ
servers that the Russian will be
forced 10 abandon their second defence
me, which extended from Brest- Litovsk
northward to the Baltic base Of Riga.
The fall Of the fortress appeared in
evitsble several days ago. when the
AuStro-German forces succeeded in
throwing troops from the left to the

tenable. Only the two minor forts OF
Grodno and 0lita now remain in Rus

as soon as they have delayed the Ger
mans long enough to permit the retreat

There is serious need for reform of
our present bankruptcy laws. They
are framed too largely in the interest
OF the lawyers and have too little re-
gard for the interests of the creditors
They work n great hardship too. by
reason of the fact that they hold out
too much temptation to the lawyer to
force an embarrassed debtor to the
wall before there is any real necessity
for such step. As a rule the people
who get most out of a bankrupt estate
are the trustees, the attorney for the
trustee and the attorney for the bank
rupt. From the standpoint of eXpcn-
siVcneSs. wreck and ruin the bankrupt
law that was in force for several wears
following the Civil war, is hardly a
circumstance to the law now in opera
