TURKS IN FLIGHT
BEFORE RUSSIANS
Cars Armies Are Reported
Progressing Fast in
Persia.

PETROGRAD. April g. via Lon
Although there has been no
official news concerning the deveI-
opmeuts on the Caucasus front it mas
been learned from private sources
that the Russian armies beyond Err
zerum and in Persia are progressing
swiftly and that the Turks forces
are offering only occasional resist
ance
II is evident that the Russian
troops advancing through Persia To
tho Mesopotamia frontier have not
yet met the main Turkish forces.
These. consisting OF the Bagdad d.
visions and reinforcements sent
southwark after the fall OF Bitlis an
Mush are reported TO be assembling
in the Hauikin pass and when the
Russians reach this point they viii
be confronted no longer by mountain
lands and remnants Of broken and
demoralized divisions but with the
full strength OF the organized Turk
ish army.
Therefore. although ultimate con
nection with the British forces is not
doubted here, II is not supposed that
| this cOnsummation OF the Russian
plans will be easily reached.
The German forces have passed
quickly to a general offensive along
the entire northern front in Russis,
their attack reaching the highest in
tensity in the Riga region where tho
! preliminary skirmishes have develop
| cd into a steady assault, supported
/ nv the heavy artillery. The Germans
| however, have been unable TO gain
! territory by frontal attack against
/ the strong Russian positions. and
now are attempting to flank the Riga
positions from the southeast
