RGE FOUR
RUSSIAN OFFENSIVE.
Capture 25.oOO5 Men, q Cannons and
!: :..' so Machine Guns.

Petrograd, June THE Russians
continue to develop the successes
won bv their newly inaugurated Of
fensive. 1t is reported that up to the
present time they have captured 4SO
officers, $4,000 men, n cannon and
more than so machine guns.
The sudden blow struck by the
Russians along the entire Galician
front of 275 miles from the Pripet
to Roumania is, in the unanimous
opinion of the military critics here,
a brilliant beginning of the long
awaited Russian offensive. The con-
dition of the roads now is perfect
and with plentiful supply of am
munition the Russian advance is ex-
pected to develop swiftly.
The movement derives significance
from the fact that it is not an isolat-
ed attack against any one portion OF
the Austrian lines, but a carefully
coordinated movement embracing the
whole front. The movement is I'M
der the able leadership of Gen. Brus-
siloff, who conducted the brilliant
campaign in the Carpathians in 1914
and who is generally conceded to be
one of the best strategists of the
Russian staff,
The forces opposing the Russian
advance are estimated at 40 Aus
TRAN infantry divisions and from 10
to Is Austrian cavalry divisions, as
listed by, at the most, two divisions
of Germans. This brings the total
Teutonic forces operating on this
front up to 100000 men.
Aside from it's military and STRAIT
egic Importance for this front, the
Russian movement undoubtedly will
have powerful, effect upon the mill
tary situation elsewhere, decreas-
ing Austrian pressure on the Italian
front from the necessity of bringing
reinforcement to this theater, while
it also is expected to influence the
situation in the Balkans.
Amsterdam, June 7.-Dispatches
from Vienna report that a violent
battle has been raging during the
last "a hours on the Russian front
along sweep of 300 kiiometers
(abbut 200 miles.) The correspond
ents describe countless waves OF
Russian infantry being sent into the
battle.
Gen. Brussiloff, who is believed to
be in command of the Russian forces
on this front, seems, according to the
advices, to be following tactics pur,
sued by the Russians in the Carpa-
thians, making attacks in mass, in an
effort to break through the hostile
lines.

BRITAIN'S LATEST LOSS
Country Mourning Over Death Of
Lord Kitchener

London, June 7-All Britain was
stunned last night by grief over the
tragic loss of Earl Kitchener. who,
with his entire staff, was drowned
Monday night when the cruiser Ham,
shire, on which they were voyaging
to Russia, was sunk either by mine
or torpedo.
An army order was issued for all
officers to wear mourning in memory
of Lord Kitchener for a week COM
mencing today.
That the Hampshire was torpedoed
by German design is generally dis
counted. 1t is believed in the highest
circles that the ship either struck 4
mine or was torpedoed in chance en-
counter with German submarine.
First official news Of England's
greatest lpesssbnal loss since the war
began was made public by the add
miralty just before noon yesterday
in the following official statement re-
ceived from Admiral Jellicoe:
"The commander in chief of the
Grand fleet reports with deep regret
that H. M. S. Hampshire, Capt.
Herbert j. Savill, R. NJ, with Lord
Kitchener and his staff on board, was
sunk Monday night about o'clock,
