London, June 26.-The Germans have
closed the Belgian frontier, evidently
in preparation for the movement of
tirodPs from Galicia to the western bat,
tie front, a dispatch to the Daily Mail
stated today.
Ihe disposition to be made of taC
vast German forces released by the de.
clslve defeat of the Russians in GA.
hcla is at present the biggest military
question of the day Military writer's
nave generally expressed the opinion
that Germany would press the advan.
tage gained over the czar by possibly
making another thrust upon Warsaw,
renewing the advance upon Riga, or
eentering the main attack upon the
southeastern front and overrunning
Bessarabia.
The German and allied forces are as
firmly deadlocked in France and Elan.
ders as during the winter months. The
popular demand in Germany is for
new drive against Paris, however, and
the big question is whether German
strategy will call for a continued of.
tenslve against the Slavs or divert the

There are also authorities who be-.
lieving there are indications that the
GermOh line from the sea to tae Alps
is showing signs of becoming weak in
spots. If this is true they declare, the
continuous retreat of the Russians in
Galicia, extending over period Of
nearly two months, has served its pur.
pose. The Slavs have inflicted enor.
nous losses upon the Austrians and
Germans, and, now just at the time
when the kaiser might expect to con.
tinue striking his sledge hammer blows
against the Russians part of his forces
must be withdrawn to hold the western
line against the allied assaults
In the past the closing of the Belgian
