1t is reported from Petrograd that in
FIVE days fighting in Volhynia the Rus
!. slams have regained 5000 square miles
of territory which cost the Germans and
Austrians weeks to conquer and have
captured altogether more than $1,000
prisoners. Moreover. the movement is
still in progress with apparently increas-
ing momentum owing to the steady weak
ening of the forces in resistance. That
Germany has sent troops, perhaps quite
recently. to reinforce the Austrian lines
is indicated by the fact that among the
prisoners taken in the latest advance
are many German troops. This occurred
in the Pripet marsh region west of
Pinsk, which is nearest the German east
ern headquarters.
The Russian strategy is obvious. The
design is to drive toward Lembers in an
effort to pierce the Austrian center,
thereby forcing q retreat on both
tanks. If the Russians succeed in &C.
tually getting through the Austrian lines
southwest of Lutsk they will have ae-
eomplished what Germany has been en-
deavoring to do in France at verdnn.
This renewed offensive 10 illustrative
Of the peculiar quality Of the Russian
soldier. At the outset Of the war il was
predicted by many that Russia would be
the dominating factor in the campaign,
for it was realized by those acquainted
: with European conditions that Russia
could not only. take . tremendous
amount of beating, but had the men to
persist in the face Of defeat and eontin.
ually renew attacks. In the japanese
war Russia suffered under two serious
handicaps, administrative graft, which
resulted in lack Of reliable supplies
and the difficulties Of trsnsportatios
over the ns-siberian railway. In the
