CLASHES ALONG
EASTERN FRONT
ARE STRATEGIC
FIGHTING ONLY MARKS THE
BEGINNING OF SPRING CAM
PAlGN-RUSSIANS MAKE A
GAIN.

PETROGRAD tvia London), March
lT.-Active encounters OF considerable
strategic Importance now pending
along the 600-mile eastern front con
stitute, in the opinion of military au-
thorities here, the beginning of the
spring campaign.
These engagements are scattered
from the Niemen. in the north,
throgh Russian Poland and eastward
through Galicia. to the Dniester. Not
since the war began has there been
such continuous activity along the
whole eastern line.
In the Carpathians the Russians
appear to have been successful in
turning the Austrian right flank south
OF Stanislau in a spectacular battle.
Amid snow, which iii places was over
the heads of the COmbatants, the Rus
sions rushed the Austrian fortifica-
tiOns neart he village of TarnowiCc,
Abandoning the customary military
formations, they scrambled as best
they could through the drifts, some
| times strung out in Indian file, some
times almost losing touch with each
other They succeeded, however, in
reaching the Notifications in sufli-
ciently good order to take the Aus
trians by surprise and possess them
selves of the stronghold in a short
time, capturing large numbers of pris-
oners and guns.
This movement was followed by a
general thanking operation, which
drove the Austrians from the Dnies-
ter The Russians now hope to eXpel
the opponents from East Galicia
An encounter Of equal strategic i'm
portance occurred between the UZsok
Pass and Turka, in which the Rus
slams captured trenches and seized
railroad communications. In the
north between Grotno, and Seiny the
Russian cavalry has been supple
mented by several infantry divisions.
| Along the Orzyc, the German advance
| from east Prussia appears to have
been checked effectively by the Rus
sian capture of the important and
heavily-fortified German position at
YednoroZec.
The bombardment of OssOwet2 con
tinues. Heavy artillery fire along the
Bzura indicates "A reawakening of
German activity on the Warsaw front.

Carranza States That He viii
Issue Order for Full
Protection.
PORT OF PROGRESO IS OPEN
Much Alarm Seems to Exist
Among Foreigners Since the
Defeat of the Insurgents and
They Ask Protection of U. S.

WASHlNGTON Marcvh 17.-For-
cigners at Progreso, alarmed by dis

department Of state called at the for
eiEn office in regard TO the situation

Moines 10 inform foreigners to this
effect
"rhe foreign office at Vera Cruz
the department is informed, has is

WHAT ACTION IS
]. s. TO TAKE
INTEREST is RENEWED IN THE
COURSE THAT is LIKELY TO
BE TAKEN.

WASHINGTON, March 17.--With
ment today of the complete text of
the correspondence between the Unit
ed States and the belligerent nations,
respecting the rights of neutrals, in
terest was renewed in the probable
course the United States government
would pursue in seeking free CONNER
Cial intercourse with other countries
This correspondence included the
British order in council aimed at the
stoppage of all commerce by sea to
and from Germany, together with the
full text of the notes to and from
Great Britain and Germany in which
the United States sought to bring
about an abandonment of submarine
warfare and the shipment Of condi-
tionaI contraband to civilians 1t
had also been arranged to make pub
lie late today the British reply to the
American note of inquiry as to how
the British embargo ON commerce
with Germany was to be carried out
in practice.
The situation resulting from the
commercial blockade continues to
absorb official attention The fact
that the British order failed to afford
American commerce with other neu-
trails relief from interference is dis
appointing to officials.
II $ generally believed here that
vigorous protest will be made against
the action Of the British government
Senator Walsh of Montana who dis
cussed the situation with President
Wilson last night, strongly favOrs
such step, He said that senators
generally regretted that congress had
not empowered the president to place
an embargo on American exports to
the belligerents. although he did not
believe that the president would call
an extra session for that purpose

Germany Scores Again.

LONDON, March 17.-Germany has
scored again in her submarine cam
paign. London announced today that
the British steamer Fingal had been
sunk and the British steamer Atlanta
damaged by torpedoes. The Atlanta's
crew was saved, but six lives are
reported to have been lost on the
Fingal.
Constantinople says only unimport-
ant operations have been attempted
during the last few days by the allied
fleet bombarding the Dardanelles. Two
attempts of cruisers to approach the
outer Notifications are said to have
been frustrated.
Increasing activity is indicated
along the western end of the Franco
Belgian battleline. A Paris newspaper
says Nieuport has been bombarded by
the Germans and West Ende by the al
lies. The Belgians are reported to
have made some headway capturing
positions in two localities The Brit
ish still are on the offensive, although
their advance apparently has been
checked
Neue Chapelle and St Eloi, in the
west, and Przasnysz and Przemysl in
the east are the pivots of the battle
areas in which struggles that may
mark important milestOnes in the war
are being fought
The outcome of the fight for Neuve
Chapelle, from which the British have
driven the Germans with loss of
nearly 10000 men, should prove, in
the opinion of British observers,
whether the Germans can mass men
and retrieve ground lost by them with
the same battering tactics they dis
played last year On the other hand,
if the British can hold the positions
gained, it will go far toward attesting
what may be expected when the al
lies begin their spring advance
Thet outcome of the battle of
PrZasnySZ will demonstrate whether
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg again
has failed and virtually nullified all
his costly efforts to reach Warsaw.
To the south the Austrians are at
Dempting what they have tried many
times before, a dasa to relieve the
fostress of PTzemysl. According to
dispatches from Petrograd the lat
est effort, which was a northward
advance from the Carpathians, has
definitely fallen short, having been
checked in the center at Smolnik,
scouth of Lustowiska Meantime the
Russians are drawing closer their
lines around Przemysl.
London has received no confirma-
tion of the report that the British
cruiser Amethyst has penetrated the
narrows OF the Dardanelles, as. far as
Niagara, and unless destruction Of thu
forts has been more rapid than of
ficially reported. such a feat is re-
garded as unlikely.
