Another dispatch from war corre-
the Austro German advance in Galicia
is sweeping forward necessarily not
withstanding desperate counter attacks
by Siberian troops.
Army Faces Catastrophe.
An Austrian semi official statement
says:
THE dsorganizing effects of defeat
upon the Russian organizations are
spreading from sector to sector. The
Austro- German operations are so
placed as to drive a large part Of the
Russian army from the natural line
of communications and force a retreat
over diicult and unprepared routes.
This change of base, difficult enough
for troops in good order, threatens a
catastrophal effect on the undisciplined
and incohesive Russian masses. The
resisting ability of the Russians is
affected and the units are breaking up
and scattering.
THE Russian losses in officers, VINO
are sacrificing themselves recklessly in
attempting to stay the rout, are enor-
nous"
A second Austrian semi official COM
munication received here says that
forty seven cannon have been taken
from the Russians in the fighting Ill
East Galicia. The communication ADDS
that airplane squadrons effectively
bombed the Tarnopol station while the
Russians were hastily placing supplies
on board trains.

FRANK WORDS FROM

dren Arc Few on Streets.
Copenhagen. July 25.-A remarkably
frank article by the Berlin correspond
ent Of the National Tidende passed by
the foreign Office censorship discusses
the enemy side Of the submarine cam
paign and the effect It has on neutrals.
It Is generally recognized, he says.
that the longer the campaign continues
the fewer friends Germany will have
after the war. This consideration, and
thought of the many billions another
six months war would cost contributed
to bringing a majority Of the reichstas
into line upon bid for immediate
peace.
The correspondent says It is gem
orally admitted that the effect of the
campaign has been miscalculated, not
regarding the amount Of tonnage de-
stroyed but as to the time required to
make its effect felt in England. But
the German people are still convinced
that It will succeed ultimately If given
time, and they themselves are able to
hold out
Disregarling Galician happenings as
accidental, the correspondent says
theirs can be no big offensive against
the Ri,ssiAns owing to lack Of men, as
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg frank
" admitted. but there is no doubt the
Germans can hold out.
The correspondent gives as two OF
the most striking impressions upon his
return to Berlin the disappearance OF
children Of whom many have been sent
to the country in thousands, and the
appearance Of new type Of Berliner,
a lank individual with skin hanging IN
folds, who has supplanted the corpu-
lent German. A few have lost less
than fifteen pounds in weight, many
more than thirty, but they are healthy
and usually improved. Another feature
is the disappearance Of vegetables ow-
ing to the drouth. Green groceries dis
played only lemons and onions.
