s .
Russians Dash for

and Capture Main Bodies of Czar's
Troops- Greatest Military Racer in
World's' War History.
The Germanic alltet, victorious along the Vistula tine, are pressing
hard upon the Russian army in its retirement from the Warsaw front.
The Slay withdrawal and' Teuton pursuit to Brest-Lltovsk, the Czar's
grarid headquarters over the Poland frontier, is developing into the greatest
military race .in history. Marshals' Hindenburg in the north and Machensen
in the south are strainiiig every energy to consummate their real objective,
cutting of the Muscovite line, and Grand Duke Nicholas is countering by
tremendous efforts to prevent isolation of great columns, and thus to heep
intact the defense front for protection of Russia proper.
The Kaiser has hurled heavy reinforcements from the western front
to complete his triumph in the east. The Russian War Ofice, which is
authority for this statement implying a weakening of the German front
in Flanders, declares, "This fact creates favorable conditions for active
operations on the part of our Allies in the west."

SLAV REAR GUARD ON NAREW
COVERS MAIN ARMY'S RETREAT
PETROGRAD, Aug. 2.
Tho Russians falling back from Warsaw
are fighting one of the most magnificent
rear-guard -actions the world wnr has
seen. Small forces standing along tho
Narew and West of tho Polish capital are
ilotetmlncdly holding up the Germans,
while the main body of Slavs continues
the retirement eastward.
So effective Is the Russian defense Just
outside tho gates of the city that mili
tary men declared today that Warsaw
could never havo been won by direct
assault. The great Austro-German siege
guns and the massed forces of tho enemy
could not have battered their way Into
the capital they held, and the capture of
Warsaw was only made pbsslble by the
progress of the Austro-Germans along the
Liublln-Cholm line.
The taking of Warsaw will only slight
ly relieve (he Germans' feeling of disap
pointment over their failure to entrap the
Grand Duke's armies, according to ad
vices to the War Office.
When it b'ecame evident that the Rus
sians were about to escape the trap,
General von Hindenburg sent out a hurry
call for reinforcements from the western
battle front. These forces arrived and
havo been seen In operation in Poland,

southeast of the city. Though It Is ad
mitted here that sufficient time has not

main body of Russian troops before War

Several days ago the State Department

United States, on the ground that really
lta cargo was of German origin.
The series, It was announced, will not

She has more enthusiasm for work

To this end, women's clubs and suf

crystallized opinion of thousands of
women of the city, began preparations
today. Active campaigning to cause the
selection of a woman aa the successor
of the (ate Dr. William C. Jacobs, will
continue throughout the summer, and be
fore the Board of Education meets In
September to name a superintendent of
schools the women will have placed their
case before the board.
