LONDON. Oct. 2S.-The Daily MdiPs

following despatch:
AT the moment of ~telegraphing I am

spite Of all rumors to the contrary the
Russians continue to hold their main
positions on the northern front against
the violent pressure Of the Germans at
numerous points.
Gen. Rnsski Is considered to have The
situation we'll in hand. Neither Riga
nor Dwlnsk is yet within range OF the
German guns. The battle for the Dwina,
which has now reached its most critical
period. has been raging for nifty days.
"When this battle began the Germans
were at the he. ght of their strength on

The correspondent emphasizes the i'm

BRITISH RECRUITING JUMPS.

LONDON, Oct. ga heavy Increase in
recruiting has been noted throughout the
country during the past week. The
Manchester Guardian says the present
rate Is higher than that reached at any
time since the early months OF the war.
The execution Of Edith Cavell and King
Georges proclamation are regarded as
powerful factors In bringing about the
increase. Manchester and Birmingham
are among the recruiting centres show
ing the largest increases.
The attitude of employers in refusing
not only to give allowances to employees
enlisting, but even TO promise them rein
statement in their positions on their re-
urn from the front. is one Of the chief
obstacles In the way of recruiting at
present. Labor leaders are investigating
this phase of the situation and will re-
port their findings to Lord Derby,
