large rS-enforcements and are slowly
pushing the Germans back to the East
Prussian frontier.
In the Carpathians and in Eastern
Galicia they are resisting fierce and
repeated Austrian attacks.
Except in front of the fortress of Os-
sowetz, which they are still lombard
ing, the Germans, according to the
Russian official reports, have turned
their backs on the Russian railways
their first objective when they emerg-
ed from East Prussia on the heels of
the retreating Russians short time
ago. In some places, however, they
are fighting stubborn rear guard ac-
lions.
The Russian offensive extends
across Poland to the Lower Vistuia,
where Russian troops are holding back
the Germans who threatened their
lines south of the river. For the mo-
ment, however, the Carpathians is the
scene Of the heaviest fighting. The
Austrians, who despite repeated de-
feats and heavy losses, seem to have
a never-ending source of supply, have
returned to the offensive, and with the
aid Of large artillery re-enforcements
have developed vigorous attack be-
tween the Ondawa and San rivers.
This, according to the Russian account,
was without any result, but Austrian
headquarters says that it in time will
have its effect.
At other points along the mountain
ranges similar attacks were delivered
and most desperate fighting occurred.
This was especially so on the hill near
which the Austro-Germans
have been trying for weeks to cap
ture, as it stands in the way of their

EXPECT WILSON'S VETO TODAY.

President Wilson will veto the immi-
grafton bill today. and send the meas
ure back to Congress with a message
explaining disapproval of the literacy
test provision. 1t is understood the
message will take the ground that he
literacy test is un-American and un-
necessary as a protection for American
labor.
The Presidents last conference on
the bill was held at the White House
yesterday. He invited House and Sem
ate conference committee to discuss
with him their reason for approving
the provision. The President, it is
understood. expressed himself as op-
posed
posing the test and his visitors left
with the conviction that the bill would
be vetoed.
1t is regarded as practically certain
that the Presidents veto will mean the
death OF the literacy test at the present
session of Congress.
