BITTER FIGHTING
ON GALICIA FRONT
Austria Tells Of Desperate At
tacks by Russians, on Which
after Are Silent.

London. Jan. i2-Hard fighting con-
tinues in Galicia, on the Bessarablan
frontier. where, according TO the Off
cial Austrian report. the Russians are
making desperate attacks" fetrograd
reports are silent rs TO these attacks,
but Russians usually say nothing OF
their movements until they are well on
the road to comp elton. -
The period Of comparative calm
which succeeded the recent Russian OIL
fensive is interpreted by military eX-
perts in Petrograd as logical conse-
auence of the necessity of tho Russians
strongly fortifying the acquired terri
torv before pushing forward. Ihey
point out the advantages enjoyed by
the enemy owing 10 the strong posi-
tons i'm their rear on which TO retire
II necessary. and declare that II Rus
STA would avoid a repetition OF the IN
favorable results following the Of
fensive Of year ago in Galicia she
must create equally strong Lines OF de-
fence as che proceeds. The Russian
offensive is regarded by these oDserv,,
ers as only temporarily checked, and
they expect it 20 be resumed when the
work Of terrifying Is completed.
To-day's official communication from
Russian headquarters says:
con the western (Russian) front, be-
tween Olaf and Weik, a small party
OF Germans tried TO cross 70 the right
bank of the River Mise, but were dis
persed by our guard. Our scouts made
n vigorous reconnaissance near Lake
Ranger, before Tchau and east or
Peankauen, during which they came in
contact with numerically superior
enemy force. A hand-to-hand struggle
ended TO our advantage.
Vienna's official report tells q bitter
fighting on the Bessarablan frontier
yesterday and to-day, and says:
shortly after noon the enemy began!
an intense artillery bombardment OF
our positions. Three hours later the
first infantry attack began, which was
followed by four others.
AT 10 o'clock in the evening the
enemy delivered his sixth attack with
columns in deep formation, striving 70
penetrate our lines. Assisted by an
excellent artillery fire. our brave de-
tenders repealed all attacks. the re-
treat Of .hc enemy occasionally degen-

II is taken in Washington as an ac-
cepted fact that the new notes 10 Great
Britain which. N ig expected. will FOL
low the German surrender, VIII not ne
honored. II is feared that political IN
fuences will operate 70 accelerate ad-
ministrative activity and that within a
brief time the United States will be in
volyed with Great Britain, with France
and with Japan over questions arising
from the blockade.
Above all it is In the circumstances
which have described that naval OBJ

explanation for Germany's apparent
change Of policy. They agree that she

A victory In the German discussion,

Anglo-American crisis replacing the

will be vastly more serious than the
old, because, while the British feet
abolished the German submarine cam
paign and made il easy for Germany
10 give up what she could no longer
use. it is exceedingly unlikely that any
thing will impair the British blockedes
and thus make British concession cor
respondingly easy.
Such being the case. the peril of the
situation cannot be exaggerated, nor
can any one misunderstand the fact
that German diplomacy seems az last
on the point of winning a very sub
stantial victory by conceding a minor
and insignificant success to the Wilson
administration

Here, then, is what the navy thinks
Of the present jurcture Of German
American negotiations. Il sees in the

war IL sees in Germany's previous eff
forts TO break that blockade a very
complete failure. and j. anticipates
similar failure for the Suez operations.
IL sees In Count Won Bernstorfs new
proposals very deliberate effort 10

20 the end that the United States may
be embroiled with the British and the

Germany TO force the break and de-
stroy the blockade which is running

expect to see a full and complete Ger

France Naval observers see in Ger

Now, al the same time, naval officers
agree that for both France and Great
Britain not even the threat of war made
~ this country will be sufficient 70 per-
suade them 10 mitigate the severity OF
the blockade I'm any essential degree.
Great Britain believes, France believes,
even more emphatically than do Ameri-
can naval officials, that the blockade
has become the decisive factor. that It
is winning the war that it has won the
war. IL il can be maintained.
Not only will Great Britain refuse TO
modify the blockade, but she will stop
at nothing TO maintain it even If 1t in
wolves her in war with the United
