Furthermore the Ger- ians are again undertaking an energetic offensu'e. LThe completeness of the change in the situation indicated a teleciram from the English correspondent in Petrotirad, vho previously announced the Russians had won an ovcr Yhelmina victory- He now states the Germans are holding heir position and the situation remains extremely hazardous:', A German critic .estimates the Russian .losses in killed, rounded and prisoners and death from sickness amount to jlly 1,100,000, or one-third of the nation's best troops .Recent reports that the Russians had invested Cracow once lain are contradicted by an unofficial dispatch, which says io invaders are einht miles from the city..
