the hope of bringing not only Bagdad
but the entire country between the

OF the two groups of Russian arm
les now threatening Mesopotamia
overland, the one already mentioned
has crossed the Mesopotamian border
and is marching rapidly toward Mo-
sui. The only serious obstacle be-
tween it and this goal is the ancient
fortified city of JezirehIbn-O Omar, on
an island in the Tigris, 1870 miles
southeast of Diarbekr. 1t is believed
| that this city, with its antiquated de-
| lenses, will not long delay the Rus
sian advance. The progress of these
| forces already has broken the back
bone of the Turkish communications
between Diarbekr and Mosul and
the Turkish armies covering these
two points are now separated except
for a circuitous road too far in the
rear to be of much service.

divisions, or about 25O.OOO men. in the
greatest jeopardy. Germany has hur'
