London. July 20.-Attention is now
conferred on the gigantic operations in
the eastern field of war where fighting
Is in full swing in nearly every section
Of the Russian line from the Baltic to
the Dneister.
General Won Buelow. who was on the
left OF General Won Kluck in the first
invasion OF France, now commands the
extreme left OF the German advance
toward Riga, which is being conducted
by cavalry on a scale exceeding any
thing heretofore undertaken during the
war. Berlin claims a steady advance
and P~etrograd comedies an advance
atter tne Russian forces had made a
stubborn contest.
on Won Buelow's right Is General
Won Eichhorn. who Is being held up by
the great Russian fortress of Osso-
wetz. On Won Eichhorn's right is Cen
eral Won Gallwitz, whose name appears
for the first time in large operations.
After capturing Przsnysz he is now
pressing a German attack on the Narew
river and its tributaries.
Berlin Optimistic.
On the famou- Rawka and Bzura
lines there is comp Irative quiet which
Is also reflected e. the south side OF
warsaw, but TO the southeast the
movement against Lublin. which was
temporarily checked, is again in full
swing.
Berlin already has begun to celebrate
he victory OF the German armies in
cir fresh advance against the Rus
ANS.
The Russians must fight a defensive
battle for the possession OF Warsaw,
or abandon all OF Poland. The Ger
mans are considered undoubtedly to
prefer the first issue. hence the Rus
sians' IN the opinion OF many military
Observers, are likely to attempt a COM
plete withdrawal with their armies in
tact. These tremendous activities by
the Germans In the east & that
they have little reserve left to devote
to the western campaign, which Of
ferS the entente allies a respite, either
for the completion OF munitions sup
plies or a concerted attempt to recap
ture Lille.
May Try to Relieve Russia.
Another Jew holds that the best
service her allies could give Russia
at this time would be the forcing of
the Dardanelles, 1t is possible that the
allies may combine both suggested at
tempts, but II Is unquestionable that
for the time the center of gravity in
the wal has shifted to eastern Europe.
The western front continues quiet,
without a sign Of any new develop
ment The Italians report some prog
ress In the mountains OF Trentino,
where the invaders are now striking
toward OF the two railroads serv-
Ing Austrta's Trentino forces.
News dispatches from Athens report
hard fighting on the Gallipoli peninsu-
Ia, with the forces of the entente al
lies attacking along the whole front.
The attacks are said to have been
successful. but there is no definite news
as to the extent Of the ground report
cd to have been gained.
Paris reports two attack the Ger
ms rs, both Of which were repulsed.
One Of these was In the vicinity of
Souchez and another in the region of
only outpost encounters in Lorraine
Rnd artillery play on French trenches
ir Belgium. Inactivity prevailed along
the remainder OF the front.
