GALlCIA IS FREED
 OF RUSSIANS

LONDON, June 24.-- With the ex- ceptlon of a small front along the Dniester river, Russia's coIossaI ar mice arc either within or on their own frontier, and their retirement from ealicia is described in some of the dispatches from the front as "ut- CT rout.o Other dispatches say the re- treat was orderly.
 The fighting around Lembers waS scattered over a wide front, and be- fore the fortress was re-taken by the Austro-eerman allies, heavy fighting was reported to the East. This is ta- ken to mean that the Grand Duke Mi choIas may have had extreme difficult ty in withdrawing his forces to the Russlans' new lines along inc river Bug.
 It was on September g, tsi4 that czar Nicholas proclaimed ealicia to be a Russian province. The Russians on that day controlled ealicia as far west as the river San, more than half of the province. When Lemberg fell, and the Russians moved on Przemysl, taking that fortress after a long siege, the Allies had thought to have turned the tide in the war b their favor as an invasion of Hungary seemed eer- tain. Since the first of June Przemy- sI and Lemberg nave been re-taken.

PRESIDENT EXPECTS EARLY
 ADJUSTMENT WITH GERMAN

BOSTON. June 24.-A Washington dispatch says that not since the ne- gotiauons with Germany began has President Wilson felt so hopeful of a favorable outcome as he does now. Be- fore leaving for Cornish he expressed himself to friends as feeling confi- dent that the recent note would re- suit in full understanding with Ger many. and that submarine warfare so far as American citizens and ships are concerned would be placed on sat isfactory basis. The Presidents con fidence is based on official dispatches not only from Berlin but from other important German centers.
 The dispatch says official informa. ton has been received that the Ger man government has sent notification to newspapers that they should be moderate and conservative in their comments on American affairs. which is supposed to explain the absence of hostile expressions on the part of the German press It is to these fairly friendly opinions that the most cheer ful feeling that prevails in certain quarters in Washington is due.

CONSCRIP TON THREAT TENED
 IN ENGLAND

LONDON, June 24- David LIoyd- George, chancellor served notice to- day on union workers. skilled in the manufacture of munitions of war that they have but seven days in which to make good the promise of their leaders that they will produce a maximum supply Of arms and ammu- nition. If the army Of mechanics fails to produce certain supply Of munitions of war within that time they will be compelled to serve in the army at the front, ihe chancellor de- clared.
 Labor leaders are rallying every available worker, to carry out their promise to the government
 The "munition bill' passed Parlia- ment yesterday It's aims are to bring supply of war material up to- the output of the German military factories at Esen, and to permit en- forcement of contracts by volunteer mechanics.

FRENCH ARE STRIKING AT
 METZ THROUGH ENEMWs LINE

PARIS, June 24.-lmportance is at- tached here to the new French thrust in Lorraine. which is believed to be the forerunner of big attempt by Gen. Joffre against Metz. The i'm. mediate objective is supposed to be the Parroy Forest, northeast of Lune- vile. which is trayersed by railway line to Avicourt.
 French Succeed at Arras
 An official statement says:
 "Our attacks have continued to make progress around souchez, (north ar Arras), near the lbyrinth, and near Hebuterne. The only indication of our success contained in the German statement Is the tereotyped express sion. "The fighting continues"
 'It is important to make clear that more than a month we have had un' interrupted success north and south of Arras and between the Aisne and Oise rivers. All our attacks succeed ed brilliantly It has not been a case of guerilla warfare. as the German press states. but attacks over a wide front and involving brigades and di- visions. As many as 2,O0O or 5000 Germans have been killed in single days fighting.

MUNITIONS SHORTAGE
 DEPREssEs LONDON

London, June 24.-Thcre is no at. tempt in London to disguise the feel ina of profound depression caused by the decisive Austro-eerman victories in GaIicia. Military critlcs admit with qreat reluctance today that the power for offensive action has passed from Russia to remain for some time, while dispatches from Petrosrad declare that 1t may be even years before the Austro-cerman assressiveness can be worn down.
 It is generally admitted Russia, like Great Britain, is not suffering 60 much from the lack of men but shortage of munitions of war has pre- vented the general allied offensive movement that was expected to take place early this summer.
 On the other hand the performances of the German forces in Galicia have shown that not since the beginning of the war has Germany been better prepared for offensive drives.

ALLIES TRYING TO DELIVER DECISIVE
 BLOW IN WEST

LONDON. June 2f.-The defeat of the Russians in the east has but served to cause the British and the French to increase their efforts to turn the battle that has been raging with terrible ferocity for days north or Arras into complete victory. It IS believed that the war offices have picked that point as the strategic place to defeat the Germans and cause break in the line that will compel the enemy to retreat from France and Belgium While the artillery duels and infantry attacks extend from the Rhine provinces to the coast 1t is at Arras that the main attack is being centered. The other movements are meant for the purpose of preventing tine Germans from concentrating their forces to meet the attack at Arras and of developing a weak spot in the Ger man line in case one should occur.
 Thoseconrolling the conduct of the war in the west feel that decisive victory at the present time would be of the greatest importance. It is be- lieved that Germany plants to deliver crushing blow to Russia, one that will destroy it's offensive power. and then leave Austria to care for Italy. while the flower of the armies of Gen. Von Maclenzen and Gen. Won Hin. denberg would be transferred to the west and participate in m attack on France similar to the drive that has been made against the Russians in Galicia. It is to prevent such a con tingency that the attacks on the Ger. man west front have been made with greater and greater force during the Incl lmn mnn,a
