BKRLIN, Mny 5.
Dispatches from Kastern headquarters
state that tho Austro-Ocrman forcps In
Western Gallcia are rapidly pressing
eastward and southward toward Dukla
Pass, shattering every effort to oppose
their progress. Oorllce, In Gallcia, has
been taken.
The correspondent of the Tageblatt tele
graphs that the Russians on the southern
wing has been crushed on a front of 22
miles.
"Our ndvance Is everywhere victorious,"
he ndds. 'Wo have captured Gorllco nnd
are still pressing on."
Gorlice Is 21 miles past or the Duuajec
Blver, from which Austro-German forces
started their offensive. They have crossed
the Ulala and reached the Ropa, accord
ing to the Tagcblatt's correspondent.
"Tho attack of our forces was a de
termined," continues the correspondent,
"that the Russians were compelled to
abandon their first lines as well as the
villages back of the front which they had
used as headquarters. They were rapidly
driven back to Gorlice, which was the only
point where the Russians made a deter
mined stand
'This was In vain. An artillery bom
bardment destroyed the town and it was
captured by tho Germans after a violent
fight In the ruins. At Gorlice one entire
Russian division was virtually annihilat

CONSTANTINOPLE, May 5.
The creut forts at tho Narrows are still

while tho troops thrown ashore arc doing
llttlo more,' than cilnB to their footholds
on the coast of the Gnlllpoll Peninsula.
Thla Is the situation along the Darda

official ipports.
A detailed examination of the forts In
the Nnrrows, made by a neutral corre
spondent shortly after the bombardment
of .March 18 and 19, which resulted in tho
loss of the battleships Bouvet, Irresist
ible and Ocean and serious damage to tho

cate that It lies In tho power of tho Buns
of the fleet to do serious damage to tho
forts.
In tho towns of Killd Bahr and Chanak
Knlessl buildings valued at $30,000 were
danuiKed In shell lire, but none of them
had any military value.
Ono or two smaller guns of older pat
tern wero more or less severely damaged,
but practically all tho damage has been
repaired In tho bombardment of March
18 only 23 were killed and 60 wounded.
Tho masonry of the forts is practically
Intact. Tho Turks have since been busy
repairing dnmages, and havo taken the
pains to smooth over and lilt In the huge
gashes torn In the earthworks by shells,
although these were really of little con
sequence. Tho official statement Issued at tho War
Office Bas:
"In order to Increase the limited extent
of the ground he held near Avlburnu, the
enemy yesterday attempted a new ad
vance on his left wing, but aa a conse
quence of our counter attacks he was In
the first place driven back with heavy
losses into very rocky valleys and after

"In the meantime our artillery caused a

which other transports quickly retired."

Sweeping Galician Victory,
Smashing Drives in
Flanders and Invasion of
Baltic Provinces Affirm
Teutonic Triumph.
nnrtLiN', May 5.
Germany today was more confident than
over boforo that all efforts of itn enemies
to crush the Fatherland must prove In
vain. With n threefold offensive In
Flanders, In Gallcia nnd in tho Baltic
provinces of Russia being successfully
prosecuted, thcro was a spirit of en
thusiasm displayed hero today In both
military nnd civilian circles that exceeded
even the Btlrring days lmmertlotely fol
lowing the outbreak of tho war.
Flags nre flying everywhere today, the
Imperial standards of Germany and Aus
tria predominating, nlthough thero Is a
goodly showing of tho Turkish Crescent.
Hands aro ploying as leglment after
regiment pnsses through tho city to en
train for tho front. These troops nto
first-line lighting men, units whoso tiain-.
ing now is complete, nnd they aro plain!)
chafing to get Into action Through Wil
hc!mstra3se the soldiers move, their hats
and guns decorated with fragrant flowers
and with mothers, sisters and aweet
heatls clinging to and encouraging them.
It Is declared that tho German line
nround Yprcs has now closed In so that
tho city, the British army base, Is partly
encircled, nnd tho German gun flro Is
expeUed soon to mako It untenable In
addition, ground Is being gained In the
Argonne, between tho Meuso and the
Moselle, nnd In Alsace.
While details of the fighting are with
held for strategic reasons, It Is said at tho
War Ofllca that Important announce
ments may soon be looked for.
In Gallcia tho Germans continue to
presB back the Russians, and announce
ment that the attempted Invasion of
Hungary has proved abortive is expected
soon. The Invasion of the Baltic prov
inces is being pressed, and enormous
quantities of grain and other food,
stuffs have been captured.

Since the report of tho disaster to the

of two other neutral nations havo called

to his Government.

say, aro in much the same position toward

In Washington would be followed by al
