A CELEBRATION
OVER THE FALL
OF PRzEMYSL
GERMAN CITIES CONSIDER
VICTORY A GREAT ONE AND
CELEBRATE 1T BY BEDECK-
ING CITIES WITH FLAGS.

BERLIN (via LondOn), June A..
The jubilation throughout Germany
and Austria Hungary over the fall of
Przemysl is mingled w'ith surprise at
the speed with which the campaign
against the stronghold was brought
to a successful end.
Vienna, Prague and Budapest all
rejoicing over this latest victory.
Like Berlin, these three cities are
bedecked with flags. Thousands of
persons fill the streets, alternately
singing the German and Austrian ma
tiOnal anthems.
Almost all the expert observers in
Berlin expected a stubborn resistance
by the Russians at Przemysl.
Conditions within the stronghold
show that the Russians also were
looking forward to a long siege. A
correspondent of the Vossiche Zeit-
ments from Lemberg and heavy ar
tillery and ammunition from Lublin
over the new strategic railroads.
Ivangorod and Brest-Litovsk also
were called upon to supply needed
materials and everything was rushed
middle forts were used to this end,
and the Jewish population was com,
PEELED to evacuate the city. Siege
operations on the part TO the Aus
trian and German forces were neces-
sary, because the Russians, during
their two months occupation, had in
a measure stored the fortification.
The Vossische eZitungs correspond
ent says the artillery attack reached
its climax Sunday, when the forts
were literally sprayed with shells.
The moment the German command
ers noticed slackening of the Rus
sian fire, storming operations were
begun.
The Russians defended themselves
until the last moment. They had no
time to rescue any guns or material.
No details are yet available as to
the materials captured or number of
men, taken prisoners.
In an editorial the Vossische Zeitung
declares the Russian menace in
Austria Hungary has been broken
forever, and that Russia has been
deprived of it's dearest wish, posses
sion of Galicia, which was to have
become new Russia.
The Lokal Anzeiger publishes a
special dispatch that the Russian lines
on the eastern and southeastern sides
of Przemysl in the direction of
Medyka and Sedeilski have not yet
been passed 1t claims that the
Russians are using reserves advanced
in years and youths of the 1917 class
throughout all Galicia in their des-
perate attempts 10 get breathing
spell.
The Russians still are fighting stub
bornly south of the Dneister and
along the banks of the river San.
The Morgenpost Gays this victory
shows that the strength of the Austro-
| Germans has not been broken and
cannot be broken.
The Nord Deutsche Allegemeine
Zeitung declares this victory is a deed
the glory of which will go down in
/ history.
Other papers hail the fall of
Przemys as an indication of the end
of Russian dominance in Galicia and
proof of eventual victory everywhere.
They are particularly gratified that
the stronghold fell before the Austro-
German attack in fewer days than it
took the Russians to capture it.
