what the delegations might be ex-

United Press staff Correspondent.

PETROGRAD. June l0.-1he Russian
bear is now a tiger. That is the char
acterization of men who have been al
the front and have seen the legions Of
General Brussiloif shoot through the
Austrian front from the Pripet marshes
to the Pruth at will, destroying in days
the most complicated defenses-defense
which the Austrans have been building
for months and which they deemed i'm
pregnable
Petrograd today places the Austrian
casualties in the drive conservativelv at
10000, and by actual count 7S,54s men
and .32S officers have been made pris-
oners. Many of these were taken when
the Russians exploded shrapnel in such
density behind the Austrian lines that
the men could not retreat through t.
Along the whole front Brusiloff is
using the younger men OF HIS forces.
They are eager for the task, charg
ing Cossack-like in the face of the
hottest Austrian fire. Where the de-
fenses are high. where the wire en-
tanglements are thick and where
are spike pits into which charging
men tumble and are impaled, the ag-
gressors are using planks and sap
ling ladders. In the entire aggres-
sive, I am informed, not a single one
OF the major Russian charges has
been turned.
Frequently the men go through.
gaining 300 yards in a single effort.
In places they have encountered as
many as twenty lines or wire en-
tanglements. In all the charges their
support from the Russian artillery
is perfect. AS the infantry whirls
through, the engineers follow, build
ing corduroy roads TO facilitate the
advance of the artillery.
The offensive is directed almost
entirely against the Austrians-it
being estimated that about 100000
Of them are defending the line the
Russians are attacking. A few Ger
man divisions have been encountered
on the north tip Of the offensive.
The Russians success in the Kovel
region however, has threatened the
Germans from the rear Of their po-
stions near Pinsk.
In their smash against the Aus
trians on the Olyka the Russians ad-
vanced twenty miles in two days and
