RUSSIA SENDS AID,

VIENNA, Via Berlin and Amster-
dam, June THAT Russia has sent
100000 fresh troops to the Galician
front is the information trans smitted
here by CORES pondents Of the Aus
trian staff headquarters. These forces
have been concentrated behind the
Dniester river to stop the Austro-Ger-
man drive in Galicia.
The correspondent states that the
disposition made of these troops indi-
Gates, in the opinion of the Austrian
commanders, the intention OF the
Russians to make their last stand
about fifty miles east of the San river,
at the same time attempting to with
stand a siege of Przemys1. in order to
hold troops there for sorties against
the rear of the Austro-German lines.
Despite the reinforcementS received
by the Russians. the Austrian war Of
flee believes that the re-capture Of all
Galician territory lost in the early
months of the war is inevitable. The
Russian artillery is declared to be
vastly inferior to that of the Germans
and Austrians and the nature of the
ground will prevent any extended
trench warfare.
On the Italian front no general bat
tie has yet developed. Several small
skirmishes are stated to have result
ed successfully for the Austrian
troops.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-President
Wilson told callers today that he has
not yet drafted a rejoinder to the Ger

no such draft would be presented to
the cabinet meeting. The chief eXecu-

special request that the newspapers

cepted across the water as final and
prove embarrassing to the govern

ceived the German note only yester
day and that it was too early for him
to give any hint as to his answer
The meeting was one of the most
important held in many years and
either of the perpleXing situations pre-
sented was sufficient to cause deepest
concern.
The members of the presidents Of
ficial family approached the session
with unusually grave demeancr, for it
was known that the reply OF this gov

presidential statement probably mean

Wilson To Stand Pat.
That the president, backed by his
cabinet members, would adhare to the
"strict accountability" attitude an
nounced before Germany began it's
Wholesale submarine warfare, was not
doubted here today.
The official text of the German re-
ply, in which that nation evades the
issues raised by the United States fol-
! lowing the Lusitania tragedy has been
studied by the president. No official
inkling has come of the exact course
mapped out by him for presentation
to his advisers. but it is stated author
itatively that the American reply to
the German note will be dispatched
without delay and that it will be firm
and vigorous in character
Method Of Settlement.
The president, it is understood, will
insist that Germany make reparation
for the loss of American lives. Little
sympathy will be expressed, it is be-
iieved with the issue raised by Ger
many that the Lusitania was an arm
ed auxiliary cruiser of the British ma
Wy and that she carried contraband of
