visit Wednesday. It seems that
these gentlemen had read in "The

stolen New lberia's prospective
paper mill and were here to see
about handling the freight of the

had a pipe dream or nightmare, as

 IN FULL RETREAT
Austrian Lines Along Strypa
 CruInble Before Russian Host

Petrograd, Aug. 14.-The Austrian lines along the Strypa, which they have held since carly September, have crumb bled and General NOr Bothmcr is in full retreat along the whole front according to the latest information re- ceived by the Russian General staff.
 General Won Bothmer's position has been regarded as untenable for days, and the only wonder in military cir clcs here is that he has had the COur- age to stand fast so long. General Letchitzky is advancing in the rear of Count Won BOthmers right flank, while General Scherbatchon is clos ing in on his left The Auxtrian com- mander is apparently making an at tempt to escape the Russian trap by taking up a position on a line running through Zlochoff, Pomorzny and Rrze- zany to Halicz, roughly twenty miles to tho west of his old lines before TarnOpol and Buczacz
 It is stated semi off cially that the Austrians evacuated the Strypa line without a battle. Their success in reaching and holding their new posi- tions is considered very prOhlematic by Russian military observers. It is Indicated that the strength of General LCtChitzky'S position on both sides Of the Dnicstcr below HaliCz makes it extremely unlikely that the Austrians will be able to hold that town. Their failure to hold Falicz would render their new line little more advantage ous than the position on the Strypa, as General Lctchitzky would still be ha n~inc: on their right flank.
 The Russians have successfully ne gOtintcd the last natural obstacle be- tween them and Halicz-namely the Bystryca river, which emptics into the Dnicstcr, eight miles to the south, General SchabatchOf has already thrown large force across the Zlota IiDa, approaching Halicz from the -sutheast. The occupation of Jezier- ra on the TanOpul-Lemberg rail- cad, and a group of towns to the
