LONDON, February 8 ts:5o p. N.Y.
Russia'H unexpected adoption of the
offensive in Poland, from where the
Germans apparently have been with
drawing some forces both to the north
and south, furnished the most strik-
ing feature OF the European war to-
day.
From German sources It is insisted
that tho plans for the capture of War
saw still are being pushed. But tho
Russians claim several minor sue
cesses at various points, and declare
the German attack reached its climax
several days ago.
Another huge segment OF the Rus
sian army Is continuing It's efforts for
a hrmer foothold in the Carpathians.
but IT Is admitted that the Germans
and Austrians have gained some
ground At one point a severe snow
storm Is said to have aided tho Aus
tro-Hungarian troops In an action,
which Vienna states has resulted In
heavy losses to the Russian forces in
Dukla Pass.
GERMANS CLAIM THAT
SITUATION Is IN HAND
From East Prussia there Is little

concerns the prevention Of further
Russian advance without the most
severe fighting.
In France and Flanders the situation
is without change. Both sides are
alert for the slightest indication of
activity on the part OF their opponents.
The British and French undoubtedly
are taking advantage OF every days
delay to throw In reinforcements.
Army affairs were discussed In tho
British House OF Commons to-day, and
the Primo Minister made the state
ment that British casualties from the
beginning OF the war had reached n
total Of 100000 This is an average
OF 1000 men weekly. In killed, wounded
and missing.

ANOTHER SUDDEN CHANGE
IN GITII ~ y

iN SITUATION On FROM
Especial Cable to The Times Dispatch.
PETRoGRAD, February s.-Another
sudden change has taken place In the
situation on this front. The enemy
appears to have abandoned his efforts
10 break through on the Bzura -Rawka
line. and to be concentrating his main
energy on an attempt to roll up the
extreme left of the Russian position
IN Sukowina, and in the eastern ridge
or the Galician Carpathians. The Ger
mans have also hurried reinforce
ments into Eastern Prussia, and as
sumed the offensive in the Valley OF
the Sheshupa, thus far without sue
cess
III ls still an open question whether
tnese movements have Immediate CON
nectlon with one another. In military
circles the idea seems to predominant
.hat the Germans have convinced
themselves nothing Is to be gained
from further sacrifice of life on the
insurmountable barrier TO the east or
warsaw 1t Is even question
whether the Germans, after their
colossal losses OF the past few davs
any longer possess n sufficient number
or fresh. unshaken units to make apv
serious assaults on the trenches OF tho
Russians In that quarter Possibly

the movements there must be regarded
merely as local incidents in n big gem

the tendency OF this Is distinctly in
favor OF the Russians.
Inc situation OF the Russians. in
Bukowina was bound to become un
comfortable. as soon as the enemy con.
cehtrated an attack on that point, in
consequence OF the propinquity of the
ffoumanian frontier, which allows no
room for manoeuvrIng, but III they ar.
permanently successful further TO the
west, they will recover the lost ground
as matter OF course.
