 No less praise is due the sacrificing her severance and last fight on the gar Iison than to their bravery during the stornling of the forts and the fighting on previous occasions. This recognition the enemy himself will not refuse to the heroes of Przemysl.
 'I he fall of the forts, with which the higher command reckoned for a long time, has no influence on the situation in general.
 ''The battle in the Carpathians from Uzsok pass to the ridge on Konieczna is progressing"
 Although the foregoing official com munication announced that Przemysl capitulated after four months invest ment, data covering the fighting there seems to indicate clearly that the in- vestment began about the middle of September

 "The Russians simply magniried the affair out of all proportions as to what actually occurred We have not gone to the trouble of issuing a detailed de- nial because we do not think it worth while. We have more to do than busy ourselves with the falsehoods circu- lated by official press bureaus, report CTS and editors.
 'The performance of the Russians in the Caucasus has been pitiful They have a railroad line into the very thea tre of war. We have none. They can bring up their supplies on trahas We must carry them for miles and miles on pack animals and camels. Everything We need must be~ transported in this manner. But as have said already we have been able to subsist large ly on the country we are in.
 Regarding Egypt

Meanwhile we have tied up in ,lgypt large British force. But that force will not be large enough when We are in position to assume a general offensive. The fact is that some people are lying to keep up their courage. We do not have to do that. We know exactly what there is before us. and are acting accordingly.
 "I consider the general military sit | uation of Turkey and her allies the best since the outbreak of the war. The German and Austro Hungarian armies have done wonders
