According to the opinion Of Russian
critics. the Turks ar. now endeavorins
to meet this contingency by an entire
change of front from south to north
and northeast. so re-arranging their
forces as TO meet the Russian pressure
in these directions at the expense of
their campaign south of Bagdad, which
has become less important than that
in the khanikin region in view of the
growing danger of a Russian attack
upon their rear. -.':..
AS the Turkish Mesopotamian cam
paign heretofore has been chiefly di-
rected southwark against the British
eXpeditionary force. the whole group
ing of forces now is expected to en-
tail difficulties which will leave the
Turks at decided disadvantage If the
Russians succeed in following up their
success with the rapidity thus far
shown.
After a long interva; of inactivity the
Russian forces in the coast region
have resumed their progress toward
Trebizond and the offensive is at pres
ent in the hands of the Russians az
every important point in the Armenian
war theatre.

Russian Force Is at
Mesopotamia Doors
Cars Fighters Have Crossed Mountain B a r.
rier to Turco-P ersian Frontier

Petrograd, May 12-(Via London).-
The Russian force in Persia. which
during the past 10 days has completed
the arduous task of traversing the
mountain district separating it from
the Turco-Pes sian frontier, driving the
Turks upon their strongly fortified base
OF khanikin, now stands at the very
threshold of Mesopotamia and future
developments in connection with the
Russian expedition toward Basdad are
being awaited with the greatest inter
est.
The hasty retreat Of the Turks in
this quarter seems to imply that the
forces defending Khanikin have been
greatly over estimated. and it is ap-
parent that they have as yet been ur
able to transfer the force released by
the surrender of Kut Ell Amara to as
sist their hard pressed army north of
Bagdad. The Russian advance upon
khanikin therefore very seriously
threatens the whole rear of the Turk
!sh Bagdad army. confronting the army
with the possibility of being entirely
cut off from the CITY of Bagdad and
the forces operating to the southwark
against the British
