I'ETItOOnAD, Juno 20.
Russian attacks against the Gcrmnn ana
Austro-Hungarlan forces In Vothynla and
Gdllcla aro growing In vigor, nnd thd feohle
fiorls of the Teutons to stem the Uueslan
'Jdrance with counter-assaults are quickly
jtrerwhelmeil.
Eighty thousanil Austrian troops, retreat
ing' from the region of Czcrnowltz, hno
teen cornered In Uultowlna by tho lightning
drive of the Itusslan left wing. (
The Russians nro pressing the pursuit
frith the utmost vigor. A largo part of tho
Austrian force In all probability will bo
cut off and surrounded. Tho others face
the alternative of retreating through tho
Carpathian passes, abandoning their guns,
ir prosslng Into Ilumanln.
The Itusslan nrmy of Oenernl kochnttsky,
which captured Czornowltz by storm, al
ready has advanced ten miles west of tho
city toward tho Sercth Illver. Tho Austro
Hungarlans who evacuated the Bukowlnlan
capital aro preparing to mako a stand on
tM Sercth.
Another Itusslan forco, which ndvanced In
a northwesterly direction along tho Pruth,
Is already within striking distance of
, Kolomca, an Important Austro-Hungarlnn
position 60 miles northwest of Czcrnowltz.
It Is believed that tho Aus"tro-TIungnrlnn
works at Kolomca aro already under artil
lery lire.
In Volhynla, whero fresh bnttlcs havo
developed, tho Austrodlungarlans were
forced from their position nt Lokntshl, south
of tho I.uga River and only 18 miles east
of the Important railway haso of Vladimir
Volynlskl,
Artillery duels of great Intensity nro re
ported from tho northern pnd of tho lino,
where tho Russians aro facing the, German
army of Field Marshal von Hlndcnburi;.
Much of the recent success of tho Rus
sians Is attributed to tho uso of poisonous
jasca; which aro the most powerful known
toNvarfare. The gas masks of tho Ger
mans and Austro-IIungarlans weroT&fally
unable to ward off Its effects.
AUSTRIAN DEFENSE STIFFENS.
Virtually tho wholo Russian front north
ef Czernowitz Is steadily" pressing In upon
Lemberg. Prisoners declare that measures
already have been taken for the evacuation
of the Gallclan capital. Russian troops
pressing down upon Brody In the ndvancs
upon Lemborg may already huvo crossed
the Gallclan frontier.
It la admitted that tho Austrian defense
Is becoming more stubborn. East of Brody
and on a wldo front dlrcqtly cast of Lem
lerg the Austrlans nro counter-attacking
with great spirit, using flamo ojectorB and
large quantities of shells. They have been
unablo thus far to stem tho Russian nd
ance.xBoth on tho Brody front and fur
ther south Austrian prisoners havo been
captured who admit they wore rushed Into
action a few days ago from tho Italian
ront ,
iiTMt tho Russian offensive not only ar
rested the Austrian drlvo southward Into
Italy, but frustrated an ambitious schemo
Vtho Austro-German general Btnffs for tho
conquest of southern Russia, was Indicated
bf Bucharest dispatches today. These re
ports said it had been learned from Gcrmnn
sources that an Austro-German thrust
across southern Russ'n to tho Black Sea
was to follow the Austrian offensive In
Italy, the plan being to cut Russia off
entirely from tho Balkan States. If this
report Is true, tho Russian strategists out-witto-l
the enemy.
The latest reports Indicate that from
kali to two-th'rds of tho Austrlans facing
the Russians when tho offensive begnn were
killed wounded or made prjsonera early In
&J lighting The, others wero so badly dis
organized that tho Russians pushed for
ward with tho greatest rapidity. Only tho
arrival of fresh bodies of Austrian troops
checked the momentum of Gencrnl Bru
allort's rush.
Tho military experts, though not attempt
ing to minimize tho Importance of the pres
ent Russian operations, advlso the public
to restrain Its enthusiasm for bigger events
expected very soon.

of Bulgarian troops Into Greek territory is
having the effect of hastening tho nllled of

of the condition of the Serbian nrmy when
It arrived here from Corfu. Now. follow

There aro now snmo 130,000 flrst-otns?
Serbian troops In Macedonia. All the old
and unfit have been weeded out. What Is

thoro are some .160,000 Ililtlsh and French
In Snlonlca today. Tho major portion ato

French troops despite Verdun. General
Mnhon has gone to Egypt to superintend
the selection and embarking of the larger
pnit of tho British nrmles concentrated
there when n German attack on Egypt was
regarded as possible According tn expert
estimate, 200,000 men should be ovallahle
from this quarter. Their transportation has
already begun.
By mid-Juno, therefore, thero will bo
somo CSO.000 men on tho ground hero ready
for tho Macedonian offensive. Expert es
timates hold 000,000 to bo more than suf
ficient for oory purpose of attack.

ALLIES TO STAND

France and England Must
Support Wilson, Press
Asserts
PAPERS HIT ' C A It 11 A N Z, A
PARIS, June 20. "France nnd Hnglnnd
can follow only one policy In Mexico, nnd
that Is to support loyally any nrtlon taken
by tho United States, hoping. In the mean
time, that It will obtain support from ono
of tho Mexican factions, which would great
ly facilitate tho pacification of the country."
Tim foregoing paragraph was contained
In nn article in the Helm de l'nrls today,
commenting upon American-Mexican rela
tions Most of tho papers published had
something to say In tho matter. Tho Jour
iial'R tdltorlal said, In part:
"President Wilson's tlrst mistake was to
expect gralltudo from Cnrrnnza
"But n bigger mlstuke was tn overlook
Mexican hostility to the I'nlted Stated and
tho Impossibility of a weak policy crushing
bucIi feeling. Mexican arrogance has In
creased with every step of hesitation by tho
Ameilcan Government. In ordinary times
the affair might bo settled by compromise,
which would bo preferred to n wnr, but tho
party platforms call for vigorous action In
Mexico.
"President Wilson cannot accept a blow
In tho face from Carrunza nftur humiliating
the Knlscr.
"Tho rest of tho editorial In tho Hcho de
Paris says:
"The Mexican Imbroglio, however un
fortunate for us from a commercial view
point will not bo disquieting to tho t'nlted
States' military vlowpolnt so long n
Brigadier General Pershing docs nothing
Imprudent.
"The obscure particulars aro: Why Is
Carranza heckling Wilson during the
election period when tho President certnlnly
docs not want to throw himself Into Mexico
nnd how docs Carranza got munitions de
livered to him from the t'nlted States? Tho
Germans seem to bo taking this opportunity
to nvengo themselves upon President
Wllbon."
