Central Europe Literally Is Declared
to Be a Swamp From Military
Viewpoint.

VIENNA, September %. via London,
September "a (delayed).-The unusual
ly early setting In of autumn, in addi-
ton to hampering maneuvers on the
other fronts, has caused slowing
where the higher points already arc
covered with four feet Of snow.
Torrential rains on all the fronts
where the Austro-Hungarians are en-
gagged have converted the battlefelds
into Quagmires, and the Indications arc
that long lull in offensive movements
is coming, although the freezing OF the
ground would improve the condition of
the terrain.
Conditions Are Handicap.
Once more the Russian onslaughts in
Bukowina and east Galicia have stop

handicapped by the snow and mud
In Dobrudja everything is knee deep
in mud and mire, while the Austro-
italian front Is experiencing regular
cloudbursts and snowstorms in the
higher attitudes. There are persistent
rains in Macedonia, and reports reach
ing here from the western front tell
the same story. so that all of central
Europe literally is a swamp from the
military viewpoint.
Those who had hoped that a decision
would come before the advent of win
ter now see that newer and greater Of
fenSives next spring are inevitable
Military authorities here also believe
that a veritable struggle Of giants will
come with the new SnrfnN.
Operations Slowed Down.
At all points. therefore. operations
are being slowed down, especially
where the terrain is new, as in Do
brudja. where the roads are few and
far between and uniformly bad. The
outlook that the rains will stop for a
long period before freezing sets in is
not good, SO that it is believed the
present situation is likely to prevail
for about six weeks.
Such lull. military critics here be-
lfeve, offers an opportunity for the con-
centration of troops of the central
powers by railroad against the newest
antagonist. Rumania, which has vast
while. the forces of the central powers
in Dobrudja have shortened their front
from $50 to ninety kilometers, which
is an advantage in the prevailing state
of the weather.

In the last three weeks Vienna has
been visited by the most torrential

been caused and a dam near Gabloons
broke. causing the deaths of many per-

day donated 10000 crowns for relief in
that district.
