the Russians assert they now have the
situation. well in hand. They state the
German drive from Cracow thru Ga
licia and also the parallel movement on
the left side Of the Vfstula, which
reached Kielce. and Radon districts,

Less optimistic observers believe the
checking of the German move is due to
the necessity of bringing up fresh sup
plies of ammunition, after which their
aggression will resume its former in
tensity.
In the district between Przemysl and
the Dumiester Marsh the Russians
have begun a successful advance, cap
turing number Of small villages on
the left bank Of the Dumiester. On the
right side Of the river the struggle Of
the opposing forces still swings forward
and backward without definite gain for
either side.
On Monday the German captured
Russian trenches near Slonsko, follow

bayonet charge. The Russian troops
