lieves that government to be wrong
and incompetent, must come as a dash
of iced water down the spines OF those
gentlemen in Washington who lick
their chops in satisfaction when they
think of the muzzle they have sue
ceeded in placing on the newspapers
of the United States. Northcliffe goes
even further than printed criticism OF
his government. He censures 1t by
his attitude in declining to accept even
a cabinet position at the request of the
man he made prime minister, Lloyd
George. He gives as reason for his
refusal the continuation in office OF
men he a Y ought not to be in office,
He says the government has wobble,
persistently for two years on vital
issues, and that it is responsible for
the tragedies of Serbia, Rumania
Montenegro, Russia and. lastly, Italy,
Above all this, his lordship has the
audacity to say the country is std

WEDNESDAY,.

Just as the Russians have torn a
big gap in the Austro-German lines IN
Galicia, capturing Halicz and pressing
on toward Lemberg, the Germans haze
started a menacing offensive near the
Belgian coast.
The Germans succeeded in their ini'
tial push by leveling the defenses
through an intensive bombardment for
twenty-four hours and then attacking
over the devastated ground. The
bridges across the User were destroy
ed by the heavy fire and the sending
IN of reinforcements was found i'm,
possible.
In the French front in northern
France an attack was made by the Ger
mans in the Woevre district, near FIJI
rev. They were elected from portion
of the trench in which they temporari.
gained footing.

TUESDAY,.

Several villages captured and more
than 1000 prisoners and three field
guns taken attest the success OF the
second days attack by General kor'
niloff in eas ern Gslicia.
Already this branch of the Russian
offensive has resulted in deep wedge
being driven into the Austro-German
line between Stanislau and Halicz'
southeast of LembeTg. 1t took the
throwing in of strong German reserves
and the launching of heavy. counter
attacks even to slow up the rush OF
KCrniloff's men.
General Sir Douglas Haig is again
nibbling at the German lines in Bel
GUM. He took another bite into the
territory east of the Messires ridge
and advanced the British line slightly
near Oosttaverne, a mile northeast OF
Wytschaete.

THURSDAY,

General Brusiloff's offensive In Call
cia Is developing into a drive with lit
lie let up, at least so far as the
Korniloff armies are concerned. News
of the capture of Halicz was followed
by the announcement that General
Korniloffs troops had pushed on be-
yond Lesiuvka, southwest of Stanislau,
and reached and occupied Kalusz, sew
en- miles to the west of the Stoka rlV'
er. The Austro-German headquarters
in this sector was situated here.
The German attack on Monday on
the Belgian coast ceased with the cap
ture of the small sector east of the
User, which they had devastated with
their intensive gunfire.
On the Verdun front the German
crown prince made number OF at
tacks on both banks of the Mouse.
All these assaults, delivered in the
vicinity of Hill GOA on the side Of the
stream and north of the Hardamont
works on the other, were repulsed by
the French, as were attacks on Inc
Aisne front south of Juvincourt.

The total Russian captures of men In
the present remarkable offensive is i'll
