March Of Retreating
Muscovite Forces
NOT OUT OF THE TRAP
Believed Germans Contemplate Drive
From Baltic in Attempt to Pene-
trate Russ Capital.

London, Aug. with the eS-
ception of the great entrenched camp
of Novogeorgievsk, the Russians
have evacuated the whole line of ths
Vistula River. Ivangorod, the
southern fortress, having fallen into
the hands of the Austro-German
army, the Russians are now making
their way eastward to the Brest-
Litovsk line.
The decision of the General Staff to
leave the garrison in Novogeorgievsk
is announced in Petrograd dispatches.
The object is to deprive the Germans
of the use of railway communications
and of the Vistula River for bringing
up supplies for their armies.
Novogeorgievsk is situated at the
junction of the Vistula. Narew and
Wkra Rivers 70 the northwest OF
Warsaw. 1t has two powerful bridge
heads, eight citadels and IA redoubts
containing II inch and II inch batter
les. 1t is calculated by military OBJ
servers that an army corps can hole
out there for many months, as the
camp is protected by massive earth.
works, which doubtless have been en-
!arged and improved since the Rus
slams were compelled to begin their
retirement.
The laying of siege to Novogtor-
gievsk may prove one Of the most in
teresting operations Of the war, as II
doubtless will show whether earth
works are less susceptible to the fire
of high explosives than are cupola
forts.
OF the retiring Russian armies the
official reports say nothing. The Rus
slams, however, destroyed bridges
oyer; the ,Nistula and took other means
to.place obstacles in the path Of their
forces while others of their forces
continue !; to offer stubborn re-
sistance !. to the Germans and Aus
trians, south and north, who are try
ing to forge ring around them.
The general opinion here is that
the Russians began their retirement
in. time to escape this inner ring, but
they have yet to reckon with the
wider outflanlting movement from
Loniza which if successful, woulG
turn the Brcst- -Litovsk line.
An even more serious menace
seemingly is General Won Buelow's
advance in the Baltic provinces
While according to Petrograd the
Germans have been thrown. back i'm
mediately south of Riga, they have.
made further advance east of Pom
icwech, toward the Dyinsk-Vllna-
Petrograd Railway.
Some critics believe this move
means that the Germans, unless they
succeed in smashing the Russian
army, intend to make an effort to ad-
vance farther into Russia and en-
deavor to force Emperor Nicholas to
accept a separate peace. With the
history of previous invasions of Rus
sia before them, however, it is be-
lieved in other quarters that the
German staff would hesitate at such
Il tremendous undertaking.

RUNNING IN HARD LUCK.

ATLANTA, Nov. 22.-Ed F. Malone
well known business man and club
man, of Atlanta, says he hasn't any
luck. About six weeks ago while
driving his AUTOMOBILES he broke his
arm in saving the life of man who
jumped off running street car and
who nearly fell under the auto. In the
meantime the arm knitted and was
practically all right again. On Sat
urday night, returning home from the
Capital City Club with Mrs. Malone,
another automobile ran into the Ma
lone car, scratched and bruised Mrs.
Malone, though not seriously, and
broke Ed Malone's arm exactly in the
same place where it was broken be-
fore.
This time, however, the doctor
hink it will not Ge a very serious
matter, as only the smaller bone
IN the arm was broken.

In the senate Monday morning n
number of special appropriations
went on their third reading while

By reason of alleged imperfections
in the Western and Atlantic bill as
a result of conflicting clauses caused
by amendments, the house may find
it necessary to reconsider the meas
ure.
The house is to consider four spe-
cial appropriations and the senate
amendment to the game revision bill
will come up for consideration, al
though it undoubtedly will be defeat

The Garland-Jones automobile IL

public school children.
No business will be transacted
Thursday, Thanksgiving day, and it
appears certain that adjournment will

special appropriations probably will
spend Tuesday, Wednesday and Fri
day in the senate and the Jones bill
hardly will reach the senate before
Wednesday. 1t cannot be passed be
fore Saturday.
Many contentious are made as to
the legality of the Western and At
