London, June 29.-The Russians
again are retreating in Galicia. both
to the north and south of Lemberg
and in Poland the Germans have
launched another attack against War
saw in the form of drive from the
north through Przansysz. The new
blow at the Polish capital has bee-
preceded by a terrific artillery action
The fact is recorded by the Russians
themselves, but 1t is too early to say
whether it means a serious offensive
the first clash having developed 8
bayonet encounter, the result of which
neither side records.
What is more important, the Ger
mans claim that the Teutonic forces
have crossed the Dniester northwest
of Halicz and have driven the Rus
SLAMS some miles into the hills.
A Russian official statement admits
that the Russian forces on the front
between Bobrka and Zurawna In
Galicia, south of Lemberg, are falling
back. The statement adds that in the
Caucasus theater, in the region oi
Van, Turkish Armenia, a battle be-
tween Russian troops and great hos
tile force is in progress.
The text of the Austrian Official
statement follows:
"After their defeat south of Lem
berg. the Russian main army retreated
to the eastward and with strong
forces took up a position on the
heights to the east of M'kolaiow.
"On this front our troops after sew.
eral days fighting. captured the en-.
emy's advanced positions, then pro-
ceeded to storm the enemy's main po.
sition and finally penetrated the
same at numerous points, throwing
back the enemy notably along the
sector near and to the south OF
Bobrka.
"From June 21 until June 25 Gen.
Boehm-Ermolli's army captured 10
officers and 14,100 men and took
twenty.six machine guns"
Not since the war began has the
English public been so convinced that
1t will be long one. Those who took
this view months ago were called pes
simists. but now it generally is ad
mitted that the Russian armies must
fight for months to come under tire
mendous disadvantages.

Canon City, Colo, Juue 25.-Harry
Hillen. Denver "boy bandit" slayer of
Thomas Chase in October, 1913, last
night took the step on the gallows
drop that ended his life. A career of
lawlessness. marked by half a hum
dred crimes, was closed when he
walked upon the little square plat
form in the state penitentiary death
chamber; a moment later he was
dangling from the end of a rope. He
was pronounced dead at 10:3O o'clock.
Blamed Deed on Companions.
Until the final minute of his life
Hillen maintained his innocence of the
murder of Chase in Denver a year and
half ago. He blamed that deed upon
two companions, youths who had
helped him in other crimes to which
he confessed to the Denver police.
The last hour of Hillen's life began
with the assembling of witnesses and
officials in the peni.entiary. The
slayer had made his spiritual peace
earlier in the day, with ministrations
by Prison Chaplain Blake and the
Rev. C. P. Ilsley, a Baptist pastor.

ing confirmation of the news that the
governor had refused to interfere in
the case.
His spiritual adviser, Chaplain
Blake and the Rev. Mr.. Ilsey, stepped
forward, and in tones audible only to
the man between them, commended
his soul to his Maker. Their rites per-
formed, they retired
Then the black cap-and from the
group came shudders. Heads were
averted and remained SO until the end.
In twinkling the guards had hob
bled the prisoner, leaving him Just
enough foot freedom to step backward
once more. His arms and wrists were
fastened to his sides and the guards
adjusted the knot carefully and then
they stepped back. A low word of
command was given from some one in
uniform and, obedient though he knew
1t was fatal, Hillen took the step. He
felt the little platform sink slowly and
he braced himself rigidly.
The platforms sinking released an

weight fell, carrying with it the other
end of the rope which was stretched
over series of pulleys.
The prison physician, DR.. Hart Good
loe, stepped forward and examined the
pulse. Shortly he pronounced Harry
Hillen dead.
Message by Sister.
When Hillen received message
from his sister in Denver saying she
had been unable to obtain the COVER
nor's clemency, he seemed unmoved
by the tidings.
Il hardly expected anything else,'
he said, with the same air of calm
that had characterized him through
his battle against the law.
Secrecy as great as that preceding
the hanging was maintained afterward
by those who had seen it. Witnesses
evaded questions by saving they were
not permitted to discuss The affair.
