LONDON. July 80. 1880 p. m-The
Russians are now facing the problem
OF evacuating Warsaw and the sur.
rounding country without losing their
armies, while the Austro-G German
forces are making a supreme effort
10 get across their line OF retreat.
The Teutous are said TO have met
with partial success In this attempt,

should this be decided upon.
British military critics. however,
refuse TO believe that Grand Duke
Nicholas. commander in chief OF the
Russian forces. has not provided for
all sentingencies or that he was not
fairly sure OF the safety OF his troops
before indicating 10 the world that he
had decided To take up a new line.
Indeed. the news contained in the Ber-
lin Official statement that the Ger
mans have crossed the Vistula river
southeast Of Warsaw. between the
Pliica river and KoZienice. leads the
military writer's to the belief that the
Russians already have fallen back in
this region. and that perhaps even
The fortress Of Ivangorod has been
left TO its fate.

There Is no news OF the situation on
the Narew river or of General won
! Buelow's wider outflanking movement

ion g. expressed here that as the Ger
man plans contemplate series OF at
tacks rather than a simultaneous one
IL IS likely that they are waiting for
Field Marshal Won Mackensen 10 reach
some previously arranged position be-
fore they resume their attacks.
According to dispatches received
here the country around Warsaw
which the Russians are leaving TO the
invaders has been put TO the torch.
