IDE I BATTLE IIWBST POLIID Conflict Is in Full Prog ress but No Definite Decision Has Yet Been Reached MEAGRE NEWS OF THE STRUGGLE Fighting Previously Reported Eastward of Mazurian Lakes Seems to Have B«eu Merely Preliminary to General Engagement Along Whole Line Berlin, Via The Hague aiid liomion, Nov. 20, 2.45t A. M. —The great bat tle in West Poland is in full progress. Official reports state that no decision has yet been reached but otherwise no definite details are known here of this titanic struggle which fav overshadows the conflict on the west front. The engagements previously report ed eastward of the Mazuriau lakes, at Soldnu, Lipo, Wloclawek ami Cracow seem to hav t > been merely preliminaries to a general engagement along the whole line. The German bulletin men tions lighting northward of Lodz whale the Austrian* report the advance of th«ir army northward from Craow and it is evident that the allies and the Russians are engaged in the center along a north and south line. Hence lit seems that the Teutonic allies are ! le\elling a concentric attack from three I directions against the Russian force. Favoranle to Dual Monarchy How the struggle is progressing is I utterly unknown here. The newspaper I critics interpret conditions as generally favorable to the Atistro-Germans and ] assert that the German advance beyond Mlawa and t lie vicinity of Plock has I eliminated danger of an invasion of east 1 and west Prussia except by such caval i rv forces as are operating northward of ' Kydkuhnien, in Kast Prussia, on the i Russian border. These, however, aro j only raiders. Major Moraht, the military critic of I the •' Tageblatt,'' declares that General ! Von Hindenburg's advance south of the j Vistula, has exercised effective pre" ! | sure on the whole Russian right wing I and deflected it southward from its nat-j I urul line of retreat 011 Warsaw. The | I chief fighting is now proceeding to the) | southeast and east of Kutno, between! J Lodz and Lowiez, on the Bezura river, j ! The situation, Major Moraht says, gives j ) the Germans ground for hope of com- j i plete success, particularly since strong | Russian forces operating north of the J ' Vistula against the line front Thorn to I : .Mlawa have driven back against the: | line of the River Bug. Gives Credit to Austrian Armies j Major Moraht gives full credit to | j the co-operation of tiMp Austrian armies, which by their offensive front Cracow i j lias drawn upon themselves strong Kits | sian forces and have prevented their ; detachment against the Germans in the j north. The Austrians, he says in a self- j sacrificing poliey, have throughout! played the game conscientiously and 1 subordinate their own particular inter-, i ests to th;;se of the general campaign. ; Km per or William has telegraphed j [General Von 11 in den burg the imperial thanks for the victory of great promise! in the lirst operations of the battles! in West Poland and has sent greetings and his gratitude to the troops of the east army for their unparalleled deeds) of marching and fighting. "My best wishes accompany you fori the coming days,'' he said in conclu sion in his message to the soldiers. I The Bumlesrath ha,l a measure pro hibition dealings in securities stamped in England.
