Tcutons holding all their lines i'm the
rlghty-mile front having inflicted
losses ON the Russians estimated at
seventy thousand men killed or
wounded and six thousand captured
That this ends only one phase of
the offensive, however. Is indicated
by the Austrian official statement

ing thrown into east Galicia Tho
Austrlans all along have considered
that the big Russian offensive was
undertaken with important military
and political objects i'm view. To it
has been attributed the dual purpose
of lessening the strain ON the entente
allies I'm the Balkans and POSSIBLY of
causing }umania to enter the war on
the side of the entente allies

BELCHER GOES TO MACON TO
ASSIST TWO COMMISSIONERS

Miami, March 1S-S. A. Belcher,
one OF the Florida commissioners of
the Dixie Highway Association, will
leave on Friday for Macon, Ga,
where he will join the other commits
sioners from the different states in
a jaunt over the route from Macon
to Jacksonville, in order to determine
the route which will be designated.
There appears to be a dispute as
to whether the route by way of Sa-
vannah or that one by way of Way
cross shall be selected. The two
Georgia commissioners are unable
to agree upon the choice, and the Sc
lection has been put up to the COM
mission as whole to decide The
QUITE to Savannah from Jacksonville
5 by way of Brunswick, while that
way of Waycross leads to the
est through to Macon, on more
J rect line, but cuts out Savannah.
The commissioners from all of the
,tates will leave Macon on March
20 for Jacksonville through Way
cross, and the return trip will be
from Jacksonville to Brunswick and
Savannah, and from Savannah to
Macon
