SADAGORA FALLS
BEFORE RUSSIANS
DETAILS LACKING

LONDON, Jan. 13,-News of the cap
ture of Austrian positions command
i1g Sadagora, in Bukowina, by the
Russians is regarded in military cir
cles here as probably true, although
1.o official announcement OF the feat
has been received in London this af-
ternoon.
The town of Sadagora, which lies
only a few miles east of Czernowitz,
capital and chief city of the province
of Bukowina, is the converging point
of five good military roads, and prev
ious attempts to capture the strong
hold have been stoutly resisted by the
Austrians, who concentrated tremen-
dous forces and large military stores
there. London experts stated today
that Sadagor is really more important
in a military sense, that Czernowitz,
On account of the strong natural posi-
tion it occupies and the excellent COM
munication facilities mentering there.
The Petrograd report that the or
fensive in Galicia and Bessarabia has
been suspended for the present is re-
garded here as at least premature.
The Russian offensive could not, it is
believed in London, be suspended 50
suddenly, as it was undertaken only
Rfter careful preparation and with
unexpected strength. The object of
such a movement at this time is de-
clared to have been to demonstrate
to the Rumanians that Russia is able
to assume the initiative and advert
1euton troops from both the Balkans
ard along the western front, whenever
this seemed desirable, and in accord
ance with battle plans perfected by
military authorities of the Entente
Allies. A general Improvement of the
Russian left flank positions was also
one of the objects of the offensive
movement, and while the full effect of
the campaign has not been definitely
determined, Entente military experts
in London, assert stoutly that the OBJ
jects sought have been attained.

CITIZENS COMMITTEE
MEETS FRIDAY ABOUT
THE VIEW RAILROAD
A. |. |. BARBECUE
WAS 4 BRILLIANT
.AF FAIR WEDNESDAY

An impetus in the movement for
more recruits for the Americus Light
Infantry was given at their armory
Wednesday night by a barbecue for
the company and large number OF
friends.
The A. L. l. is not up to the full
quota allowed under the military rules
and it is the desire of the militia de-
partments of the state and federal
governments and the local officers and
men, that the full enlistment of the
company be brought to the maximum
rating.
The local company is historic in the
affairs of the state and has always
been one of the crack organizations
of the state ansd has always been one
of the crack organizations of the state
militia. On Monday night, Januar;
oath, they will be inspected by state
and federal officers. This inspection
means much to the company becaus.
of the cultailment of forces which
will be made in Georgia during this
year.
The barbecue was a pleasant event
with plenty of Georgia's famous eats
and thorough hospitality reigning su-
preme.
A guest of honor was Captain Boyce
Miller, of Macon, commander of a ma
chine gun company which was recent
ly organized. He formerly resided in
Americus and was member of the
A. L. I.
Speeches during the evening were
made by Captain James Fort, Lieut..
Brown McLendon, and lieut.. b. C.
Hogue.
The A. L. I. is to be congratulated
