GERMAN SITUATION

PETROGRAD, February 24.-The i'm
portant change which has come over
the campaign in Poland can best be
gaugcd by the military estimates OF
the present disposition of the German
forces. ThcE are believed now TO have
barely 900, 600 men stationed at select

against the Bzura and the Rawka.
Ten weeks of desperate onsiaughts
upon that narrow front have convinced
him that, even by discounting his most
appalling losses. nothing would be
gained by throwing great masses of
troops into frontal attacks against the
Russians.
He has reconstructed his main east
cr:: army, and Is spreading IL over n
front where there is ample space to
deploy. but he Is handicapped Ivy the
extreme scarcity OF railways and by
the Russians having already seized and
held positions essential to his plan.
one Of these positions is Przasnysz.
which obstructs the chief rendezvous
across the border by railway from
Prussia. Another Is Evdabo. which
prevents the Germans from getting
near Bobr, between the fortress of
OssowctZ and Lomza.
Tho German situation is made very
shaky by the Russian aggressive from
Grodno, from combination with the
heroic lighters from General Bulga-
kon's force which inflicted terrible
slaughter upon tho Germans while
they were closing round il among the
thick woods of Augustowo.
The Germans lost heavily on Mon
day In attempting TO advance on
Evdabo from above Ossowetz. y great
number OF nrmorcd ears with quick
fircrs was brought on the scene, but
when some of them attempted 10 leave

vclopinF formidable trials for the
strength of the Germans. Since they
have realized that It Is impossible to
get at the communication lines behind
and above Warsaw. they are bringing
their entire energy into an attempt to
hold down the main strength OF the
Russian northern army.
