BIG BATTLE IN GAL|C|A /
REACHES NO DECISION
Austro-G Germans Push Russians Bach
Between Kolomea and Kalusz,
in Eastern Galicia.
STILL MOVE TOWARD LEMBERG
Muscovite CounterofYensive Already
Makes Itself Felt on Lower San.
ItaIian-Austrian Operations Are
Screened by Censorship.

LONDON, June s.-The big tattle in
Galicia has reached no decision. The
Austro Germans have crossed the Dnies-
ter south Of Lemberg, and have assumed
the offensive further to the south. and.
according to the Austrian official re-
port, have pushed the Russians hack
between Kolomea and Kalusz. in East
ern Galicia.
The operation was necessary before
the Teutonic allies continued their ad-
vance toward Lemberg. as Russian at
lacks In the region OF Kolomea were
beginning to look dangerous, after the
Russians had, as reported from Pc
trograd last week, inflicted defeat
on the Austrians in this district
British and Russian military opinion
is that the Austro -Germans. after their
big effort. which gained for them the
greater part Of Galicia. have about ex-
hausted themselves. and the view is
expressed that they will soon have to
fortify a line on which they can with
which already has made itself felt on
the lower San.
If the Russian positions really were
dangerous. the Austrians say. the allies
long ago would have taken the ofren-
on the eastern front.
1t is true that the French have been
attacking at number OF points be-
tween Rheims and the district north of
Arras. and have gained some ground.
but the British are quiet. and It hardly
can be said that general offensive in
the west has begun. North OF Arras
the French have gained additional
-
repulsed four German counterattacks
and extended their previous gains.
The Germans claim to have repulsed
some of the French attacks north of
Arras and north Of Scissors.
The British report all quiet on their
front. but to the Zeppelin brought down
yesterday they claim TO have added two
German aeroplancs as an Offset to the
destruction. reported by the Germans,
of an allied aeroplane near Douai.
The operations on the Italian Aus
TRAN frontier arc screened by the CEN
sorship. There are indications, how
ever. that a big battle is imminent, If
1T has not already begun. along the
Isonzo River. where the Italians have
apparently launched their principal
attack. The Italian cavalry have
crossed the river. and 1t was reported
from Geneva to-day that they had
pierced the Austrian line.
There also are reports that the allies
again have taken the offensive on the
Gallipoli Peninsula. and have defeated
the Turks.
German submarines continue their
activities. Among their latest victims
were three Norwegian vessels. the
steamers Trudvang and Cilittertind,
with iron ore for British ports. and
the bark Superb, with grain from South
America for Queenstown.
Others sunk were the Belgian steamer
Meuapier. with the loss Of seventeen

BULGARIA AND ROUMANIA
MAY KEEP OUT OF WAR

COLOGNE. GERMANY. June tvia
London) The chances that Bulgaria
and Roumania will enter the war with
the allies are diminishing. says a Eer-
lin dispatch to the Cologne Gazette.
The political heavens of the Balkans
have cleared somewhat" the dispat ch
says. "Roumania has rejected the first
offer of the triple entente is unsatis-
factory. Bulgaria also has received
offers from the entente. II is not known
that Bulgaria has formally rejected
them. but she is in agreement with
Roumania. and since the latter has re-
jected the offers, Bulgaria probably will
do likewise.
This assumption is the more reason
able because Bulgaria's nrst demand is
immediate occupation by her Of Mace
donia territory taken by Serbia. The
entente has not yet offered that. Bull
garia naturally is not disinterested in
the Turkish frontier, but Bulgarian
statesmen are keenly conscious that the
opportunity regarding Macedonia is ono
which will come now or never"
