BOTH SIDES ADMIT
GALIG! AN REVERSES
London. Some Idea of the desper
ate churaclcr of the fighting in central
Gallvla Is given lu both the Berlin and
I'etroKrud official reports, each of
which uniquely admit reverse uf
fered at the hands of the other.
The German Xar office announces
that the Russians forced the Teutons
near Stcnlawa back across the San,
capturing six cannon. Tho communi
cation adds that 9000 Rutins. v 23
cannon and 20 machine guns have
been raptured In the San engage
ments since Muy 25.
Tho Russian war office admits that
the Austro-Ucrman forces have made
further gains on both banks of the
Sun. This communication adds that
70U0 Anstro Germans and 17 cannon
were captured on the Slentawa and
Ptgary fronts and that the Teuton for
tifications were carried by storm, the
Auntro-Gerntans leaving 2U00 dead.
Renewed German activity Is noted
all aloi.g the front from the Baltic to
the region of Przvmysl,
BRIEF WAR NEWS
Ccrrniin submarines have sunk the
Danish steamer goborg and the Brit
ish steamer Dljilana. The crews and
officers of both were saved,
It is announced that German avia
tors dropped bomb on St. Otner, In
Northern France, 22 miles southeast
of Calais.
The United State gunboat Scor
pion, on d'lty off Constantinople, nar
rowly escaped being damaged by a
British torpedo, Ambassador Morgen
thau reported to the stale department I
President Wilson granted a request
of Count von Bernstorff, the German
ambassador, for an Interview at the
White House Wednesday afternoon. It
Is understood that the ambassador de
sires to discus questions pending be
tween bis country and the United
States.
The success of the German subma
rines In their attacks on the British
fleet supporting the army on the Gal
llpoll peninsula, which bas resulted In
the sinking of the battleships Majestic
and Triumph, with the ever-Increasing
activity of these boats In the waters
around the British Isles and the threat
to carry this underwater warfare to
the Suez canal, have brought British
officials to a realization of the great
danger that will exist if Germany Is
able largely to Increase her fleet of
"U" boats.
The great battle In mid Gallcla still
continues In a furious offensive
against the Russian north and south
of I'rzemysl. Italy' declaration of
war against Austria apparently has
not affected the aggressive force of
the Austrian armies. The superiority
in artillery which the Austrians estab
lished In tho first stage of the war,
owing to the Introduction of the new
Skoda six-Inch howitzer, and the loan
of a number of German eight-Inch bat
teries, continues to be the determinant
factor, tho Russians being shelled or
bayoneted out of one position after ,
another.
