TEUTONs WIN IN GALICIA
Berlin and Vienna Announce the Cap
ture Of 5000 Russians on the
Hungarian Frontier.

Misunderstanding TO Berlin and
Vienna, 6he German and Austrian ar
mics have achieved a notable victory
In West Galicia, smashing the entire
Russian center along a front OF many
miles, or, as the Berlin official state
ment puts 1t, across the whole western
>tip OF 6alicia, from near the Hungar-
ian border to the point where the
River Dunsjec joins the Vistula, right
at the frontier Of Poland.
Though the 5000 prisoners the TeU
tonic allies say they have taken does
not compare with the number which
some Of Field Marshal Won linden
burg's rushes netted him in the north,
the achievement, IL subsequent reports
bear 1t out, will lei at least a tenn
porary check to the Russians hammer
ing their way westward since the fall
OF PrZemysl.
Berlin Is celebrating the victory,
though 1t is admitted flags have been
flown before full details are at hand.
The Austrian official statement con-
firms the German reports of a big VIC
tory along the entire front in West
Gslicia.
The text of the statement follows:
"The Austro- Hungarian and German
forces on May 2 attacked the fortified
positions in West Galicia and repulsed
the Russians along the entire front OF
Malastow, Gorlice. Gromik and north
OF these places.
1.-THE Russians suffered severe loss.
We captured 5000 Russians and took
a great number Of cannon and machine
guns. simultaneously we forced our
way across the Dunajec river.
ION the C%arpathtan front the Bes-
kid situation has changed. In the
wooded Carpathians W gained ground
to the east of Koziowka. We repulsed
several counterattacks with great
slaughter, capturing several hundred
Russians and taking three machine
guns"

WAR COSTS ENGLAND MUCH
Lloyd.0eoree Estimates That Hostili.
ties Costs Empire Over Ten Mil
lion Dollars Daily.

London David Lloyd-Georse. chan
cellor OF the exchequer, has given the
British public further insight into
what the val is costing the nation.
The expenditures now. Mr.. Lloyd.
George said, was $40. 500, 900 daily,
and he added that If the war con,
finued for a year Great Britain's bill
would be upward of $4,000, 900, 900. The
debt OF the country, according to Mr..
Lloyd George, already had been al
most doubled, and stood we'll over the
s 5000. 000, 900 mark.
The chancellor declined 10 predict
h length OF the war. He introduced
no measures calling for new taxes. al.
though he limited that such a step
likely would have to be taken. There
was little discussion OF the budget
itself, and the usual income tax res
olutions were passed before the house
adjourned.
Mr.. Lloyd-George said he was able
TO report that the revenue of the coun.
try had exceeded the estimates, and
that the surtaX and income taxpayers
were sending in their money with un.
usual celebrity.

GERMANS CLAIM VICTORY
rield Marshal French, British Com
me nder.in-Chlef. Admits That n.
.AtA lice Were Repuissd.

London.-The German Official report
Of May s claims victories both over
the Russians in Western Galicia and
over the British in Flanders. Field
Marshal SIR John French, British com
mander-in-chief, admits he was com
PEELED to readjust his lines in the re
gion OF Ypres. but the French com
mander, far from confirming a Ger
man victory in Belgium, declares the
German attacks were repulsed and
that the Germans, being taken on the
flank by French artillery, suffered Sc
verely.
A late report from the British war
office also says that German attacks
were repulsed, although the Germans
used asphyxiation gases and by the
use Of these fumes did get a footing on
Hill No. 60, southeast of Ypres, which
since the British captured 1t recently
has been attacked repeatedly.
There has been fighting all along the
rest Of the western front, in all Of
which the Germans claim successes.
The French, however, insist that their
advance continues both along the User
canal, ia Flanders, and in the Woevre,
where battles have been continuous for
weeks on end.
Conflicting reports from the east
make it impossible to judge of the DO
sition there. The Austr4ans and Ger
mans say the Russians have been
beaten badly in Western Galicia and
have commenced to retire from the
Western Carpathians, whereas the lat
est Russian report, while admitting
that the Austro-Germans got across
the Dunajec river, declares they were
checked there.
The county around the East Prus-
sian frontier also has been the scene
Of battles of more or less Importance.
while at the other end of the Russian
line, in Eastern Galicia, the Russians
are attacking the Austro-G Germans, de-
spite their reported check in the west.
