 DRESS HELD FROM WORLD
RESUME OF THE WAR
Germans Have Accepted Gage of Bat-
 tie From Russians and Win Over . Large Territory Picked German Troops Moved Down in Unsuccess-
 fuI Attempts to Break French Line Russian Disturbances Well in Hand.

Apparently the censorship in Ger many is being rigidly enforced. Not even an inkling of the address which the new imperial chancellor was to have delivered to the reichstag Thr.'s- day afternoon at o'clock. for winch the world is waiting as an indication of what his stand in the war is to be, has yet reached the outlying coun- tries. with all of which telegraphic transmission with the United States is open.
 In Eastern Gaiieia.
 Having brought up heavy reinforce ments all along the line, the Ger mans and Austro- -Hungarians in east ern Galicia have started what appar- ently is a tremendous offensive against the Russians. From Brody, near the northeastern border of Galicia, south ward to below kalusz, the operations are in full swing, but have not yet de- veloped to an extent where particu- lars of the battles in their entirety are available
 The Germans Accept.
 The latest German official communi- have accepted the gage of battle thrust upon them by the Russians and in a counter attack on the line guard l. ing Lemberg from the east have de- feated the Russians over a wide front near Zlochoff. which lies on the Tar nOpol-Lemberg railway line forty miles distant from the capital. To the north, in Volhynia, and still to the Baltic sea, especially around Smorgon and Dvinsk, heavy artillery duels are being fought. Near Lutsk, in the famous Volhynian fortress tri- angle, the Germans report the cap ture of many Russian prisoners.

 Near St. Juentin, where for some time the situation has been calm, the Germans also delivered attacks on a front of about half a mile. Here they succeeded on the French first line po- sitiOns, only to be expelled from them in a counter attack.
 Artillery Dueis Prevail.
 There has been no diminution in the artillery duels between the British and Germans in northern Belgium, British have been making against Ger man trenches for many days. Around Monchy -le-PreuX these infantry at taclls have resulted in the British re- gaining all the ground they lOSl 10 the Germans east of Arras July II.
 Despite terrific heat the British forces operating against the Turks have made twelve-mile advance up the Euphrates while in the Caucasus region the Russians have carried out successful raids against the Otto mans.
 Russian Disturbances.
 The latest reports from Petrograd indicate that the disturbances of the past few days have been quel1ed and that the situation is now well in hand. The streets of the capital are being patrolled by Cossacks and other mounted troops. One report is to the effect that there has been a discus sion in an extraordinary cabinet coun- cil of a proposal to transfer the seat of the provisional government to Mos cow.
