and are advancing toward the East Prus-
sian frontier again, the Russians are cap

500 to 500 prisoners in each. Przasnysz it,

As q result of the fighting of the last
five days more than $1,000 prisoners have
fallen into Russian hands. The Germans
have also lost many guns.

sector have, as was predicted, forced the
retirement of the Germans before Osso-
WITT. according to the latest reports re-
ceived here. Before Grodno the Germans
are also weakening and the Russians are
masslng attacks upon their foes. The
Grodno garrison is assisting in the oper-

JAPANESE FLEET CALLED
FACTOR IN FALKLAND'S FIGHT
British Seacraft Not Sufficient to De-

BERLIN, March

DEANlSA%Nt AAalIh l.
According to information received here
today the defeat of the German squadron
under Admiral Graf Won Spec near the
Falkland Islands was accomplished by
the combined efforts of a Japanese and
British feet. This Is a new version of
the battle, all the credit for which has
been claimed by the British Admiralty
for the ships of Vice Admiral sturdee.
The Hanover Kurier has received from
it's correspondent at Pekln the following
Japanese report of the battle, printed
in a newspaper there:
THE prestige of the white man again
has been considerably lowered by the
naval battle off Falkland Islands. The
intending rejoicing at Kioto, Toxic and
Yokohama does not refer to the destruc-
ton of the weak German forces. but
to the part played there by the Japanese
fleet"

FRENCH MARINES PUT

PARIS, March 1.
French marines were placed upon the
American steamship Dacla at Brest to-
day to relieve for active duty the sailors
Of the cruiser that captured the former
HamburE-Amerlcan ship at sea.
The information was given out at the
Ministry of Marine today that France
will refuse to recognize the legality of
the transfer Of the Daeia's registry, but
definite announcement to this effect will
not be made until the sitting Of a prize
court at Brest this week,
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 1.
The site Department has not yet re-
ceived confirmation of the seizure of the
steamship Dacia by the French 1t Is ex-
pccted tina this will be brought to the
departments attention by the present
American owner of the vessel, F.. N.
Breitung, of New York, who will request
the department to make representations to
the French Government requesting the
release of the ship.
This is really a mere Formally, for, of
course, the Dacla will be placed before a
prize court. The United States could not
properly take action save, perhaps, to re-
quest that the proceedings be expedited.
After tho decision is rendered, the
United States may. IL it deems best, make
representations to the French Government
protesting against the ruling of the court
as involving n denial of justice to an
American citizen. The matter thus might
be settled through diplomatic negotiations
or it might be presented to an inter-
tribunal.
However, the Governments part in this
issue cannot develop before the decision
of the court, and since the Ship Purchase
bill Is already apparently defeated, Of
fetal Washington, at this time, Is not
manifestlng much interest in the Dacia
case.
