MOST DESPERATE
BATTLE RAGING
MOUNTAIN SIDES ARE sTREWN
WITH DEAD AND DYING.
ONE OF MOST DECISIVE OF WAR
Reports to London From Austrian
Sources Say Russians Are Evac-
uating Crown Lands Of Buko-
wilma and Germans Advance.

Petrograd, Feb. 10.-The battle for
the slopes of the Carpathians and
the passes which command the fer
with a desperation that is unprece
denied. The mountain sides are
strewn with dead and dying. Both
sides are being constantly rein
forced and the battle is developing
so that it promises to become one of
the most decisive of the war.
If the Russians are able to retain
their holdings in Bukowina and the
,Carpathlans they will attempt an in
vasion of Hungary If they are
forced to retire II will not be disas-
trous inasmuch as they will simply
fall back on their strongly entrench-
ed positions in Galicia and northern
and eastern Bukowina.
Russians Are Evacuating.
London, Feb. 10.-Advices from
Austrian sources that the Russians
have commenced the evacuation of
the crown land of Bukowina are vir-
tually admitted in a Petrograd dis
patch which says that the advance
of the Austro-German armies in great
force toward Nadvorna and Kaloza
threaten the Russians in this quar-
ter with the alternative of isolation
or the complete evacuation of Buko-
wilma.
An official statement issued in
Vienna last night says:
I'VE continue to advance in Buko-
wilma and have occupied Wanna"
In Russian Poland the Germans
having been checked in their efforts
to break the Russian lines before
Warsaw have transferred many OF
their troops to East Prussia to
meet the Russian offensive in that
region.
This offensive has commenced to
be real danger to the Germans, as
it threatened to drive wedge be-
tween Tilst and Interburg and so,
to turn the fortified position in the
extremely difficult county of the
Mazurian lakes. ...
If this movement succeeded the
Russians would overrun a consider
able part of East Prussia and would
again be on their way to Koenigsberg
and Danzig.
Isolated Conflicts.
Paris, Feb. 10-Isolated conflicts
at half a dozen points in the long
battle line from the sea to the Swiss
border are being fought with the ut
most desperation. This is especial.
ly so in the Woevre region, the Ar
gonne, La Bassee and the Furnes,
but according to reports reaching
here today the Germans have been
unable to gain anv matoriol advap
tage although they greatly outnum-
Der the French. Elsewhere ON the
front the fighting is confined to ar
tillery duels. The Germans have
been bringing up large quantities of
men and supplies to the triangle of
the Disc and Aisne and it is ex-
pected that they will attempt a gen.
eral offensive in this section.
