~ dispatch from The Hague states
that the Russian legation there oni-

count of the Russians lack of ammu-

PETROGRAD, Aug. 4.-While the
Russian war office admits gains for
the Austro- German forces in Court

which Field Marshal Won Mackeuen
and Gen. Won BuelOw have been pay
ing have cost the Austro-German
forces enormo ousIy, their losses being
estimated at 10000 men a day during
the recent bloody fighting.
Dispatches indicate that Grand
Duke Nicholas has withdrawn the
major part OF his army from Warsaw
in order to meet the wings Of the
tro-German forces and SO, if War
saw should fall in the immediate fu-
ture the Teutonic general staff will
have failed in it's main object of cap
turing the grand army of Russia.
Russ Forces Withdraw.
II is officially admitted that the Rus
sian forces defending Riga, on the Bal
tic sea. have withdrawn across the
Eckau river. The Eckau river is only
10 miles southwest of Irga and the
army of Gen. Won BuelOw is now tight
ing to force a passage.
There are four zones of hard fight
ing:
First, on the Eckau near Riga; sec
ond, on the Narew front; third. around
Ivangorod; fourth, north Of Cholm.
To the minds Of military men
the operations in Courland are the
most menacing of all to the Russians.
as a big victory for Won BuelOw in that
region would enable the German cav
airy TO sweep across the railway lines
that feed the Russian armies in PO-

There are indications that the Ger
