London, Oct. The armies of Prince
Leopold and the Archduke Karl are hit
ting back furiously at the Russians, who
have resumed their drive on Lemberg.
Despite heavy attacks, however, the
Russian armies have been able to main
tain their gains in all but one sector, and
have captured nearly 1000 additional
prisoners
The heaviest fighting occurred south
east Of Lemberg on the heights that rise
from the right bank of the Klota Lipa
River. Here Turkish troops are fighting
side by side with Austrians and Germans,
and it was against these forces that the
Russians registered a gain which Vienna
admits as Of Some meters"
On Prince Leopold's front, northeast OF
Lemberg, the Austrian war office reports
the repulse of Russian attacks, three hav-
ing been broken up in one sector and
seven in another.
Here the Austrians have launched a
counter-attack, for which progress is
claimed.

this region Berlin claims that position
