RUSSIAN FORCES ARE GAINING
OVER MOST OF 675 MILE FRONT
German Drive on Riga Checked and
By Coup Cars Men Now Threaten
Gen. Won Buelow's Army.

LONDON, October 23.-For almost the
first time since the great Austro-Ger-
man offensive movement began last
May, Russian military officers now de-
scribe the situation along the whole
675-mile front as satisfactory to them.
They assert that the German drive at
the Baltic port of Riga, possession Of
which would be of great strategic
value to the invaders, has been halt
ed and that the Russians are gaining
ground along most Of the eastern line.
Russia by a coup of combined land
and sea operations has flung men and
guns on the coast of Courland, ninety
miles northeast of Riga. thus menac-
ing the rear Of Gen. Won Buelow's army.
which for so long time has been try
ing to take the Baltic port.
The news Of this surprise landing Is
disclosed in the Berlin official commu-
nication, which describes the forces
landed as of small strength
PETROGRAD, October 23.-Russian
military authorities regard the situa-
tion along the entire front of approx
mately 675 miles as favorable from
their point of view. Three days ago
the German efforts between Mitau and
the Gulf of Riga presented serious
problem. At the present time the
status in that sector is considered by
the Russians as satisfactory. The Ger
mans have been checked and their

The editorials in the newsnanars
dwell on the Importance of the Balkan
campaign as means of establishing n
basis for an early peace
The Pesu -Hirlap says in this connsc-
tom
The stroke through the Balkans
will bring peace nearer. for it is a
stroke aimed directly at England,
which heretofore has stood safe and
isolated. boasting of her ability to con-
tinue the war three years or more.
England lately has been the only OBJ
stacle in the way of an early peace.
AS soon as her world power is threat
ened she will manifest a willingness TO
consider the question of peace"
The Azest says: THE Balkan cam
paign Is the easiest talk ever in
trusted to an army leader. If the pres
ent plan is carried out it will be impos-
sible for the allies to escape capture
or disaster. and the only real military
task Is to accomplish all this with the
smallest possible loss to ourselves"
The Newspaper adds that even with
the greatest force the Angio-French
governments can muster the Germanic
armies will outnumber them two to
one, while the Austro o-German artil.

WOULD RECALL GOVERNOR
Petitions Circulated in Arizona

PHOENIX, Ariz-. October 2sy-Petf-
tions were placed in circulation toda ,
for the recall Of Gov. George W. p.
Hunt. on the ground that he is incom-
petent and has disregarded the courts
Demands for the recall Of the gov
ernor were published shortly after he
went to the Clifton district and de-
clared that tho copper mine strik-
ers there were justly aggrieved.
and that II he had to send troops
there the mine owners. or any
one else who proved recalcftrant or an
tagonistic toward a settlement, would
be imprisoned.
The petitions. which also aIlege the
governors administration Is extrava-
CANT, were placed in circulation by H.
r. johnson Of Mesa
The movement against the governor
began at the lass session of the leg1s-
lature, which was deadlocked for weeks
over appropriation bills.
Mr. Johnson said he had about 800
signers tonight The approximate num-
ber required to call an election is
1900. Most of the signers so far are
said to belong to the democratic party,
of which the governor Is a member.

sphere Of action is being narrowed con-
stant1y.
Eastward along the line. to points be-
yond Dvinsk, the Russians are success
fully pressing the Germans. gaining
ground in many places. Their most
considerable success recently has beer
at Postavy. This town was taken and
the Germans were driven westward
through Duka in fierce battle.
From that vicinity south to the
Baranovichi region there Is little ac-
tivity at present. In the immediate
vicinity Of Beranovichi the Russians
are still on the offensive. after having
gained series of advantageous posi-
tions which placed them in command OF
the right bank of the Shara river
thereby threatening the Germans to the
northward.
In Galicia the Russians are following
up their successes at Novo Alexinetz
1t is stated in reports from this region
that three German divisions were cut
to pieces there.
The Russian authorities attribute
their successes less to withdrawal OF
Germans for the Serbian campaign than
to the vigor of the Russian attack. the
exhaustion of German troops and the
increasing difficulties of transportation
with which the Austrians and Germans
have to contend. 1t is stated, how
ever, that the Germans have detached
two armies for service in Serbia These
are the armies of Gems. Won Gallwitz

WOULD HAVE NAVY
THE EQUAL OF ANY
Representative Gardner Urges
Enlargement of Program and
Wants More Speed.

Representative A. P. Gardner of Massa-
chusetts, famous as a big navy boost
err has written letter to Chairman
Padgett of the House committee on
naval offairs. urging that the proposed
naval program be enlarged so as to make
the fleet the equal of any af1oat Mr..
Gardner says he believes the country is
not satisfied with the proposition to
make the United States navy the equal
Of any except Great Britains, and he
also reiterates his request that the COM
mittee should hear the views Of certain
naval officers other than bureau chiefs.
The letter says. in part:
THE new program recommends that
each year for the next five years the
construction of a liberal number of
dreadnaughts or battle cruisers shall be
jumped to the conclusion that this prof.
ect will take only five years to execute.
OF course. this is an error. 1t is true
that If the plan is carried out the ships
will all be voted in five years, but voting
dreadnaught is one thing, and building
dreadnaught is quite another thing.
The dreadnaughts Oklahoma and Nevada
have just been finished and will shortly
be put in commission. Congress voted
to construct these dreadnaughts March
4, 1911. four years and seven months
ago. Consequently, a fve-year appro-
prfation program means actually a nine
year building program before the project
is completed.
"It seems to me that we should look
into the possibility of accelerating this
program. If we must spend the money
sooner or later. why not build up the
navy as rapidly as possible. even If it
necessitates a bond issue? Is it not
the part of prudence to build as speed
lily as circumstances permit at a time
when foreign nations are in no posi-
ton to look askance upon our activi-
ties?
In order that Congress and the coun-
try may get the point of view Of naval
officers other than the bureau chiefs
and the officers who are in immediate
and constant touch with the Navy De-
partment, request that the committee
on naval affairs make arrangements to
summon Admiral Cameron MGR. Wins
low, commander in chief of the Pacific
feet; Rear Admiral Austin M. Knight,
president of the Naval War College,
and Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske,
recently senior adviser to the Secretary
Of the Navy and chief of operations Of
the fleet
you will remember that last winter
your committee thought 1t wiser to
decline requests from Capt. Hobson
and me to summon Admiral Knight and
Admiral Winslow, although you con-
sented to summon Admiral Fiske. The
result, or SO 1t appeared to me, was an
inadequate presentation Of the nom
official point of view.
Winslow be summoned, for it seems to
me that he commands the confidence
of officers and enlisted men more than
any one else of whom I know"

Not Alarmed Over Situation.
The Saloniki correspondent of the
Havas Agency sends the following dis
patch, dated October %, regarding the
situation in the Balkan war theater
Notwithstanding the crop of alarm
ist rumors the situation, as gathered
from authoritative sources. is as fol-
lows:
The railway between Gievgeli and
Nish is open, except at Troinegrad. a
point just. below Vranya, where the
line has been cut by two regiments of
light Bulgarian cavalry.
THE Austro-Germans. who have put
into the field against the Serbians only
twelve divisions. Of which three are
Slav, comprising men from seventeen
to fifty years of age. are being held in
check along the Danube. The Bull
garians are attacking the Serbians
with only 100000 men, leaving the
Greek frontier unfurnished with troops.
Allies Progress Not Known.
What progress the British and
French troops are making in their ad-
vance northward to the relief Of Serbia
is still withheld and there are mis-
givings in many quarters that Serbia
never will be saved in this way.
Greece's apparently authentic demand
that allied soldiers, to insure her safe
ty. rather than allied concessions to ex-
pand her dominions constituted her
price for aligning herself against the
central powers and Turkey. carries the
Implication that she regards the forces
landed at Saloniki as far from adequate
for the purpose.
Rumania's stipulation governing her
entry into the war in behalf of the en-
tente powers has, according to report,
narrowed to similar, though more
troops to insure her against invasion.
