If theories aie always aIoms In war,
the German nimy on the Alsnc ought to

But General von Kluk, who commands
the threatened wing, is a soldier aa
well as a strategist, who evidently shares
Field .Murnbal von del- Gojtz's opinion
that a menace to linen of communication
may be disregarded and ought to bo met
by a forward inurement which will fotce
the enemy to abandon the threat. This
acknowledgment Is duo to the skill and
energy nnd resource with which General
von Kluk Is conducting the hazardous
opeiatlons, though some people are be
ginning to suspect that the Hmperor has
i taken command In the west as In the
cast and forbidden another strategic
letreat.
' Yet his urmj Is letlilng. At one bound
for moi o than u week tlie have passed

The seciecj and speed with which the
movement has been mndc must have
astonished the enemj. The valor nnd
sacrifices of tho Allies In this region can
not, be overstated. If they did not
j achieve their purpose, which was to turn
the enemy's flank, they forced him to
change front and withdraw tioops from

NEW YORK. Oct. 23. While progress
measurable scarcely more than by
Indies Is being leportcd by the Allies In
the west. Russia Is announcing stupen
dous victories in the east on a scale
outclassing nil previous leports. The
Germans have been driven back west ot
the Vistula, according to news from Pet
lograd. with losses which m ntlon 200,000
casualties as the apparent minimum, and
destruction of half tho entire Invading
armies ns the maximum.
Previous experience has shown the
nocesslty for discounting tho enthusiastic
spirit that dominates the Petrograd dis
patch writers, when thtv arc Infoimlng
the world of tho prow eta of Russian
aims. They seem to measuio all engage
ments on the gigantic scale of Russian
dlstnnce. and to magnify tesults In ic
wrse tntln tn the far-away view obtain
able from Petrograd. That an over
whelming disaster has happened to the
German forces In Poland nnd that thev
havo hcen routed toward their own
frontier Indicate an Incredible leversal of
recent developments In the eastern light
ing zone.
Ovei whelming victories seem to havo
been removed from military possibilities
by modem strategic methods. For Rus
sia to believe the Germans have met with
a crushing defeat Is to engender as false
hopes as were produced by tho K.tst
Prussian and Gnllclan confliots.
What apparently has happened Is that
the Russians have concentrated In great
force about Warsaw and have compelled
the German line west and southwest of
Warsaw to fall back a few miles. L"le
