NJ dlSaN, WncIc military optIdlloUo are
much less aggressive.
Troops Rushed 10 Front.
During the last month Russian mill
tGry authorities have been receiving
information that all the railroad lines
leading from Prussian Silesia through
Hungary 10 the Rumanian frontier and
Bukowina have been closed to non
military traffic. while hundreds of
trains loaded with troops and muu'-
tons have been forwarded from Ger
many. II has been noted, moreover,
that during this time no reinforce
ments have arrived at the fields of ac-
ton on either side of the lower Wis
tula. while the Austrians seemingly
are attempting merely to hold and for
tify their positions along the Dunalcc.
Russian staff officers state that when
the war began the Germans were con-
tident that the Russians would direct
all their efforts toward the western
frontier. and that consequently Buko-
wilma and the Carpathian passes were
left insufficiently defended. The Rus
SLAMS protited from this situation, driy-
ing the Austrians from the Russian
province OF Nolhynia and from Eastern
Poland and pursuing them into the
plains OF Northern hungary. IN tCN-
trial Poland, it il said, the Russians at
tempted 70 do nothing more than 20
straighten their lines along the Wis
tula, Bzura and Dunajec.
The next aggressive move on the part
Of the Germans is expected 10 be ar
effort, in conjunction with the Aus
trians, TO eXpel the Russian invaders
from the Eastern Gaiician passes and
from Bukowina and Hungary.
