10y MORNING JoussAL SPECIAL s.sso w,sEl

Having retreated a distance of ap-
proXimately 100 miles from where
kerensky, the iron man of Russia,
carried them in his personally con-
Quoted drive early in the present
month, the Russian army on the CEN
ter of the line in East Galicia is again
on Russian soil on both sides of HUI
siatyn and is still being followed by
the forces of the Teutonic allies.
Likewise the armies on the north
and south continue TO fall back be-
full troops attempt to give battle they
are harassed by numerically stronger
forces of the Teutons and compelled
to give ground, receiving no assist
ance from their recalcitrant former
brothArs-ir- whose main effort
continues to be to get out of striking
distance of the enemy.
'Bul<Owina to Fan Soon.
SO fast has been the retirement of
the Russians and the advance Of the
enemy toward Bukowina that already
an arc-like formation has been

capital, with the northern end rest
ing on Woclawice twenty-five miles
distant, and the southern end to the
east of Kuty, on the western border
of the crown land.
Evidently the preparations of the
"blood and iron" policy of the govern
ment against the disaffected troops
shortly will be put into full force, for
Minister of War Kerensky is on his
way to the Russian headquarters
there to confer with the military lead
ers to formulate plans to stay the re-
treat and compel the troops to stand
and face the foe, as the Russians in
the southern Carpathian region are
doing Down along this latter front
the Russians, aided by the Ruman-
ians, continue to force the Teutonic
allies to cede ground, especially in the
upper Putna valley.
French Score Gains.
French troops in the Aisne region
have turned in vicious counter-attacks
against the army of the German
crown prince. put down an offensive
IL had started between Hurtebise and
La Bovelle and made good gains
against 1t all along the line. Several
attacks by the Germans in the Ver-
dun sector were repulsed. The great
artillery duel which has been in
progress in Flanders for more than
a week continues unabated.
In the air the machines of Great
Britain and Germany are carrying out
maneuvers or proportions never be-
fore seen. AS an indication of the
intensity of these aerial combats, thir-
ty German airplanes were accounted
for in the latest fighting, in addition
to two observation balloons. The
British war office admits that thir-
teen of the royal air squadron failed
to return to their bases. The Ger
man war office asserts, however, that
thirty-five British planes were shot
down.
Air Raids on Paris.
On Friday and Saturday nights
German airmen attempted to bomb
Paris. In the first attacks three sub
urban sections were reached and
bombs dropped, which caused the in
jury Of several persons. The attempt
of Saturday night was entirely futile,
the raiders not even reaching the en-
virons of the capital.
