Terrific Battle is on For Great
Strategic Point.
The LOSSES ARE ENORMOUS
Success of the Cars Offensive Would
Threaten All the Teuton Lines in
Galicia.

London, Jan. Discontinued Rus
Sian successes are reported in the ire
mendous struggle on the BukoW1na
frontier and in Galicia, where their Of.
fensive is backed by thousands OF
heavy guns and plentiful supply OF
ammunition.
General Invanoff, by a strong often.
sive from Czernowitz, already captur-
ed, toward the main heights and Ko
vel, is attempting to force the Teu.
tonic forces out of eastern Galicia and
Bukowina and throw them back to tie
Lembsrg line.
Both Vienna and Petrograd report
desperate fighting on a twenty-mlle
front along the bend of the Styr. 1t
Is agreed by both sides that Kovel IS
the immediate Russian objective.
Should this railway town be taken by
the cars troops the Austrian lines
In all this section would be seriously
threatened.
The chances of Russian success
here are regarded as being greater
than at any other point. Both the
1lutSA 0uu bus III lOi IL O0SSS "ooA0 W
cut of by the taking Of Kovel and
the Germans in the Pinsk region
would be threatened with an envelop
ing movement.
The Russians announce that after
taking the hills to the west of Gee
tmysk they are pushing ahead to at
tack the main heights between them
and Kovel. The Teutonic forces have
suffered enormous losses. The Rus
SLAMS have taken 1900 prisoners.
Count Won Reventlow, the German
naval critic, writes that the Russian
offensive has been well prepared and
that the Russians have great reserves
of men and artillery, and he considers
that the movement, if successful, might
bring Rumania and Greece On the side
Of the entente.
Count Won Reventlow's opinion con.
cerning Greece is not shared in Great
Britain, where the opinion prevails
that the Greek king is not likely to
oppose his brother-in-law, the German
emperor, in any circumstances.
The Russians record the resumption
Of the German offensive in the Riga
region, where fresh attacks near the
Mitau road have been repulsed. The
Germans again employed asphyxiating
gases, but evidently without success.
These attacks by Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg, 1t is believed, are meant
primarily to divert the Russians from
their offensive along the southeastern
front. AS the Russians now have
ample reserves Of men and material
It Is not believed they will be turned
aside by any Riga menace.
