Berlin Correspondent Declares
Strength Of Armies in Car
pathianS Broken.
TWO MILLION men IN BATTLE
Struggle In Mountains of Galieia to
Be Greatest In History--Bodies
LIE In Heaps Before the
Allied Lines.

Berlin, April 19.-War correspon-
dents. at the Austrian headquarters
have taken advantage of the pause In
the battle In the Carpathians to sum-
marize the results of the Russian ef-
forts to break through the mountain
barrier, which have progressed as a
continuous gigantic battle since the
fall of Przemysl
The Russians, who hurled massed
troops first against one and then an.
other part of the line, succeeded in
advancing their own line slightly in
the depression south of Dukla pass,
where they hold a considerable area
OF the southern slope of the noun
tains. They also forced the Austrians
to straighten out the big northern
bulge In their line east of this point,
between Lupkow and Uzsok passes.
where 1t had pushed forward we'll into
Galicia toward Przemysl in the Feb.
ruary operations. The rest of the
Austro-German line has not bent un.
der the furious Russian attacks, but
has advanced materially eastward of
Uzsok pass.
Puts Russ Losses at 10000.
Eugene Lennhoff, correspondent in
the Carpathians for the Zeitung Am
Mittsg, estimates that the Russian
losses in killed, wounded, sick and
prisoners in the attempt to force a
way through the passes is at least
half a million. In this connection
Herr Lennhoff says:
"The strength of Russias proud
Carpathian army is broken, without
coming any nearer the goal for which
the Russian leaders cast everything
into the balance. Its losses are pro
digious. Bodies lie in heaps before
the allied lines" s
Herr LennhgS says tina, ,se believes
the after-enects OF tnlS struggle, IKE
the winter battle in the Champagne
district, will be highly important. The
Russian troops, he asserts, are greatly
exhausted, and he expresses the opin
ion that their offensive power prob
ably is seriously crippled.
Battle aGreatest In History"
The correspondent of the Lokal An
zeiger describes the Carpathian opera
tions as the greatest in history. HI
says that fully two million men alto
gether have been engaged in this con
fiict. The battle, he continues, hal
taken a heavy toll from the Russian
nobility, large numbers of younl
guard officers having recently been as
signed to this front.
One hundred and fifty members o
the guard were killed in an engage
ment near Kosno alone. Lieutenant
Colonel Lissoifsky and Maj. Gen. Nj
chael Kalmitzy were among the sc
verely wounded Russian officers. Th
correspondent says that Grand Dult
Michael, younger brother of the EN-
peror Of Russia, is understood to con
mand division on this front.
After q few spring days winte
weather has returned over the CarpS
thians. The dispatches say the Ru!
slams seem to have suspended their o
fensive movements.
