corner of the forest of La Oniric.
In Lorraine and In the Vosgcs there
were some nrtlllery engagements, In
Alsace there Is nothing to leport.
The trenches north of Ypres, which were
originally held by the British, have been
strengthened with fresh French troops
and the arrival of more heavy artillery,
which Is needed to combat the concen
trated big gun fire of the Invaders.
So urgent was the call for fresh troops
and heavy guns In that region that the
railway became blocked. It Is reported
from St. Omer that some of the wounded
who fell In tho fighting early In the week

BELGRADE NEW
Capture of Belgrade by the Austrians affords a base on Servian soil
for the Invasion of that country, From this standpoint the strategic
value of the capture Is important. Of equal importance is the moral
effect In that the occupation cheers Austria-Hungary with a decisive
victory at a time when the fortunes of war are at a low ebb in the
Polish and Galiclan campaigns and correspondingly depresses the
Servians, whose country recently has been overrun by the enemy and
whose forces have suffered heavy losses. Furthermore, the seizure
of the Serb'capltal may be expected to act as a deterrent to other
Balkan nations ready to enter the war against Austria if favorable
opportunity offered,

PKTROGRAD, Dec. 4. The numbers of
tho Russian army nlone prevent tho suc
cess of the German attack on the Rus
sian centre In front of Warsaw.
The battle of Lodz was a masterly
effort of Marshal von Illndenburg to
stop tho Russian advance toward Cracow.
But tho Russians have now brought up
so many men before Lodz that they have
started a turning (movement against the
Gorman flank nortn 'f Lodz. This, un
less stopped, must compel the entire Ger
man battle lino to fall back again.
The Russians have retaken Stiykow and
Lonlcz. Tho Russians hold everything
from this point on the Lodz-Wursaw Rall-
load to the Vistula River west of Plock,
and the turning movement against tho
German frtfnt proceeds.
The Germans In massed columns made
furious onslaughts for tho possession of
the railroad Junction and the river near
Gombln, but tho Russian movement slowly
proceeded.
600,000 RUSSIANS NI1A.R CRACOW.
In the meantime, 4120 miles to the south
another great Russian army, not less
than COO.000 men, moyed steadily toward
Cracow, reaching a point within eight
miles of the city.
Russia, on top of these two great mili
tary movements, the most significant and
Important In the war, 1ms called out
another 1,200,000 reservists. It is said
that Russia could now sond troops to
France, If It wcro possible to get them
there either by rail or by sea, but It
is not possible.
The Russian army has also Imitated
the German tactics by using the Vistula
River as a line of water transport, send
ing men, ammunition and stores from
Plock down the Vistula toward Thorn as
far as Wlozlowsk. This will greatly aid
In the turning movement against the
German left flank.
I believe that Russia can, In a very
few weeks, put two army corps against
every one Germany can bring to Poland,
and will still have enough troops to carry
on the campaign against Cracow, 120 miles
south, as originally planned.
RUSS PROGRESS IN GALICIA.
The only line of railroad In northern
Gallcla, between the Carpathians and the
border, Is now In possession of the Rus
sians from Lemberg to n. point west of
Tarnow, more than 160 miles. ,
Tho Russian advance has been directly
westward along this line, and In 4J days
has mado a record of 13 battles. At
least these fights would havo been classed
as battles In any previous war. In this
coi'lllct they rank as reconnaissances In
The Austrians have made determined
resistance, but nothing could withstand
the slow plodding progress of the su
perior numbers of the Russians.
The Austrians, who made their last de
termined stand In an angle mado by the
Raba and Schrejawa Rivers, aro now
within the protecting radius of the guns
of the Cracow fortress.
PUSH INVASION OF SILESIA.
The successful encircling movement of
Russians In front of Cracow doeB not
mean tho Immediate comjueet of the
city. It Is Quito possible that the Rus
sians will not wait to take the city. They
may leave an Investing force and press
on around and beyond the city, continuing
the most Important objective of the en
tire nussian campaign the Invasion ot
Silesia,
The more Austrians who are Interned
In Cracow, the easier becomes the entry
into Germany through Its southeast gate.
The chief city of Oallcla (Cracow) Is
defended by seven mighty fortresses.
The demolition of these would require
artillery qf the heaviest type. Bringing
up such artillery to the proper elevations
and emplacing It requires time. No aw)ft
or startling developments can be ex
pected for many days, so far as Cracgw
is concerned.

AUSTRIA'S DUFKNSU BROKDN.
Marshal von Hlndcnburg may havo had
no alternative, but when ho withdrew
tho supporting German troops from tho
Auntilan nimy In Gallcla ho took away
the head and heart of Germany's ally nnd
left Austria without tho power of re
sistance. Her soldiers are brave, but
their resistance quickly crumbles. The
fow offensive movements they have un
dertaken were carried through half
l.eurtedly. Tho Austrians lost enormously during
their slow retreat In straggleis and pris
oners. In the Inst two weeks of Novem
ber 00,000 Austilans, only a fow of them
wounded, have been entrained for tho
Russian prison camps In Siberia.

I'BTROIlDAt Dec. 4 The Bourse
Gazette states that the battle which
has been raging around Lodz has
ended In a gigantic success for the
Itiiffllnn army.
Grcnt numbers of German prisoners
nnd numerous guns havo been brought
Into Lodz dally.
The Gnretto further Btatcs that all

PETROORAD, Dec. i.
Germans, heavily reinforced, havo re
newed attacks against tho Russian cen
tre forced to a counter-oftenslvo by the
vigor of Grand Dukr Nicholas' operations
along tho Lowlcz-Lodz line. In Southern
Poland toward Crenstochowa tho Germans
have had the ndvnntage of heavy rein
forcements. In neither field has the enemy
mntlo any decisive advanco or won any
notable advantage.
The resumption of tho Gorman offensive
following the re-forming tit Ihe lines of
the Invading rtimy has been without re
sult, it Is unnounced hero today.
The Russians, It la asserted, havo ex
tended their lino farther nlong tho Vis
tula. In tho region of tho Lowlcz they
again ha'vo forced tho Germans to take
tho, offensive. This lino extends to the
north of Lodz, and unofflclnl reports claim
the Germans have been forced to fall
buck throughout this district.
Heavy i enforcements nro being rushed
toward by the Germans toward the
southern end of the line, nnd at least
five corps arc believed to hae reached
Czenstochowa. A stiong movement by
these forces along tho railroad toward
Radomsk nnd Plotrkow In an attempt to
rolleo tho pressure on tho ccntro Is an
ticipated. A correspondent nt tho front confirms
the repoit that tho Goimans, after des
perate efforts and enormous losses, havo
escaped the pressure of the Russians and
have re-formed their front, with the
centre ntluatetl north of Lodz and their
light wing in the Zdunakanola region.
The German reinforcements fiom tho
vicinity of Kallsz were repelled In dis
order last Monday by tho Russian re
serves, brought up from Warsaw and

Fuilous lighting has been resumed In

Wider Gencinl Francis, from Breslau,
wore surrcAinded at Rzgow, south of Lodz,
but they finally cut thelt way out after

A R'issinn description uf the light saym
"For 21 hours tho armies of Russia and
Germany battled hand to hand with equal
valor. Our enemies, fighting llko tigers,
pitfcrred to dlo rather than surrender.
When they got away toward Brzezlny
and Strykow their trenches presented nn
nwrul spectacle. The dead wore piled
six deep. Tho trenches, in fact, were
filled with tho dead qf both armies, some
transfixed with bayonets and others with
their heads smashed In with rifle butts,
