NEW GUNS HELP RUSSIANS
Russians Continue Their Big Hauls Of
Prisoners and Booty One. Hun-
dred Officers and 14,000 Men '
the Latest Capture.
Tetrograd (via London). The cap
ture of an additional 100 officers and
14,000 men was announced by the War
Olllce. The Russian successes in tho
offensive along the southern front are
continuing, tbe statement declares.
Much of the effectiveness of the Rus
sian artillery In their great Galiciaa
drive Is due to the use of big Jupanese
guns. These guns are said to be mora
powerful than any that tho Russians
have had heretofore and are charged
with shells Oiled with a now explosive,
the destructive power of which Is ter
rific. The latest Russian War Office says:
"The supreme commander, the Czar,
has received the following telegram
from the King of Italy:
" T am In harmony with the whole
Italian people In expressing tbe send
pient of profound admiration for the
victorious development of the power
ful offensive of Your Majesty's armies
and in sending to you the wannest and
most friendly congratulations. Being
convinced that the efforts thus happily
commenced will lead to definite suc
cess, I pray you to accept the assur
ance of my unchanging friendship."
Futile Counter Attacks.
"On tho front of the armies south
of Polessle the fighting Is heavy. The
enemy has suffered heavy losses In en
counters with our troops. The follow
ing details of the operations In many
sectors have been received:
"In the course of a powerful but
fruitless counter attack by the enemy
in the regions of okuI, north ot
Rojitche, we took as prisoners 20 offi
cers and 1.7J0 men.
"In the region west and southwest
of Lutsk during the pursuit of the
enemy our cavalry fought several suc
cessful actions. Northwest of Krem
enez our bold soldiers of General
Eakharoff's forco, after a desperate
fight, dislodged the enemy from his
fortified positions on the River Bluich
hevka, between Kozln and Tarnovka,
by a vigorous assault. One of our
young regiments, led by Colonel Tatar,
noff, after a fierce fight, forded the
deep river which was up to their chins.
One company was engulfed and died a
heroic death, but the valor of their
comrades and their officers resulted In
the disorderly flight of the enemy. Sev
enty officers and 5,000 men were taken
prisoners, and 2 guns, a great many
machine guns and 1,000 rifles, car
tridges and enormous reserves of
barbed wire were captured in this
action.
Rostok Wood Occupied.
"By an equally impetuous coup our
Infantry, with powerful support from
the artillery, captured Rostok Wood,
south of the Lower rotchaieoff, taking
prisoners, machine guns and bomb
throwers. "By a heroic effort the troops of Gen
eral Stohorbatchoff's army overthrew
the Austrlans In the region of Gou
voronka and Guilovdy, on the west
bank of the Strlpa.
"Northwest of Buczaei the engage
ment with the Austrlans and the Ger
mans continues unceasingly. So far
we have captured 6,000 prisoners, guns
and machine guns.
"An enemy aeroplane has dropped
bombs on Tarnopol.
"Our brave cossacks hnve taken
prisoner seven officers and 600 men.
The approximate total of yestorday's
captures Is 100 officers, 14,000 men and
a quantity of war material.
"On the Dvina front and further
south In the region of Pope, there has
been an exchange of artillery and rifle
fire. Our artillery made a violent at
tack In the resion of Pvlnsk. Enemy
attempts to take the offensive In many
sertirs were everywhere repulsed by
our Are.
