have Strengthened out their line and

bred and fifty miles i'm length, extends
from the River Bug TO q days march
west Of the NiStula.
Taken together with the German
operations in the Baltic provinces, IL is
obvious that Germany has taken up
again the precise operation Austria and
Germany both failed 10 carry through
in the first months. namely 10 force the
way into Russian territory from East
Prussia, and from Galicia behind the
line of the Vistula.
The plan is an admirable one on pa
per and Germany has arrived now
merely at the preliminary stage
The accomplishment Of the rapid ad-
vance during the last fortnight must
on no account be taken as "a scale for
measuring future progress. II was
only on Friday that the Russians began

measures of military preparation are
being taken az other important points
I'm this vast area. II is already clear
that one Of the next moves of the
enemy will be an energetic attempt on
the Baltic provinces. Renewed activ-
ity at sea is also connected with de-
velopment IN this region.
What the enemy is finding in this
ambitious invasion OF Russia is a land
laid waste and desolatc on "a heroic
scale. None of the delights of cam

Geneva, July 5-Severe fighting is In

An Austrian aeroplane, carrying a
pilot and an observer, fell down preci-

Saturday and was SMASHED. IL was
many hours before the bodies Of the
two aviators could be reached.
An official statement given out at
Rome tonight says:

seriously damaged the cantonment at
Trieste last night. The airship re-

An earlier statement said:
an the region of the Tyrol, Trentino
and Carnia there has been a continu-

small Italian detachments pushing
toward the front The Hensel fort was
reached a number Of times yesterday.
Supported by continuous artillery

night trenches on the northern slope Of

troops on July ?. This attack, like those
preceding it, was repulsed.
"Our adversary renewed yesterday
with particular violence counter-at

Admiral Won Truppel writes: "A Ger

which would virtually be as great,

question:

to foresce, to force England to its

submarines can find better employment

what notifications of the submarine

mand for the protection OF her rights
without reducing the effectiveness OF
the submarine as weapon against
Germany's enemies.
Ambassador Gerard has had several
conferences with high German oihclals
in which various suggestions have been
made. The conference TO which beriih
press dispatches referred as having
taken place last Saturday had not peen
repOrted by Ambassador Gerard to
night His last dispatches intimated
that the German reply would be de-
laved for several days, possibly a week.
The apparent delay in the compile

officials as a hopeful sign, and they
are not disappointed by the protracted
discussion. believing that each add

countries closer to an understanding. .
