Threatened Attack by Land AndSeaP Proves TooMuch For Chicken Hearted,
 Fleeing Russians.

| Riga, capital of the government ot
 Livonia, had a population of more
 than 500,0OO persons before the war
 and aside from Petrograd was the
 most important Russian commercial
 and industrial town having access to
 the Baltic. It is situated at the
 southern extremity of the Gulf of
 Riga, a stretch of water 100 miles
 long and 50 miles wide, Riga lying at
 the point where the Dvina empties

 ton before the opening of hostilities and it is interesting to note that it was fourded in 1I5s by Ger-7-1 mer- chants as storehouse, the city pass ing through the control of various northern nationalities during the cen turies until it finally in 1721 was in- corporated with the Russian empire. Its commercial standing is indicated by the fact that it was the third sea- port of Russia, only Petrograd and Odessa exceeding it in importance.
 The Germans long have had their eyes upon Riga and at the close of the great campaign of 1915 when Po- land was overrun and large sections of Russia taken by the Teutonic forces an effort was made by Field Marshal von Hindenburg to break the line of the Dvina between Riga and Dvinsk, no miles to the southeast. The Russians at that time, however, were able to hold their grip on the line, being aided by the advent of Winter During last year no serious offensive was undertaken by the Ger mans on the northern front, their en- orgies in the eastern war theatre be- ing directed elsewhere in resisting the Brussiloff offensive and in the Ru- manian campaign.
 Ever since the Russian revolution with its disorganizing effect upon the Russian armies made the military situation more favorable to the Ger mans, there have been hints that de- scent was to be made upon the Rus sian northern front and several alarms have been sounded in Petro- grad that such an eventuality was pending.

 Riga, Russia's principal Baltic port has been abandoned to the Germans under the threat of an offensive by land and sea in which the deciding stro,1e on the land side was ociiseIel by the Germans last Saturday.
 The fate of Riga was virtually seal ed when German troops forced a crossing of the Dvina southeast of the city and began to push northward after making good their foothold on the right bank of the stream.
 Menaced also by the attack of a column of Teutonic forces moving from Mitau, southwest of Riga, and by the German naval forces recently reported lowering in the vicinity of the Gulf of Riga, the Russian military authorities evidently considered the city no longer tenable and decided to evacuate it.
 The possible ultimate military con- OI uCkClCpiilClll difficult to estimate. The right flank of the entire Russian Western front was anchored on the Gulf of Riga at a point to the west of the city and with this anchorage apparently lost, the possible strategical developments of the situation seem indefinite. Much depends on the purpose of the Ger mans and the size of the forces at their disposal for operations in this war theatre It is too early yet for it to be made apparent whether they will be content at present with occu- patton of the Baltic seaport the Rus sians have left to them, or if the ad- vantage is to be pushed and an at tempt made to swing back the entire Russian line on this front, creating an opening for an operation by land and water with Petrograd as the objective.
