IN POLAND AS "MIN0R"
Attempted Russian Advapces Only
Tentative Movements.

6bftLlNt Jan. Z.
Military headquarters deny that there
has been any severe lighting either in
the carpathians or in Hungary. The
fighting in the Carpathians is described
as little more than skirmishing, the re-
ports from there indicating that the
weather has intsrfered with aggressive
operations by either side.
There has been only minor fghting dur
ing the last few days along the Vistula
and other Polish rivers. The Russians
have attempted advances. but they have
been more in the nature of a feeling
OUT movement than of an active agrees
sive attempt 10 take the German POSI-
ttons. For the most part, It Is stated
the fighting Is now only a long-range
artillery duel.
Although II is admitted at headquarters
that the hghting In Alsace continues. fiat
denial IS made of the French allegations
Of substantial gains. 1t is stated that at
no point have the Germans lost material
stratesic positions and certain OF their
trenches. ceded 10 superior force already
have been recaptured.

friends were treated to a we'll
