GERMANS MAKE DASH
FOR BREST LITOVSK
Would Leave the Czar's Men
Without Future Base of
Operations in Poland.
w-don. The AustroGermana are
making a determined attempt te en
velop Brest Litovsk by swift marches
from the west and south before the
retreating Russians can regroup them
selves to defend their important fort
ress base.
Official dispatches from both retro
trad and Vienna agreed on this point,
Vienna reported the arrival of a Ger
man army within 85 miles of Brest
Litovsk. The Russian war office an
Bounced that "obstinate struggles are
Increasing" in the region west of the
fortress, through which the Bavarians
are advancing from Warsaw.
The Germans, it was believed here,
are attempting to rush the Slavs off
their feet, capture Brest Litovsk by
cyclonic assault and leave the Rus
sian field armies without a base for
future operations in Toland, compel
ling their immediate retirement far
behind the Kovno-Brest Litovsk line.
The new positions occupied by the
Germans and Austrians were outlined
with approximate accuracy on good
authority for the first time since the
fall of Warsaw. The line starting
from the vicinity of OssoweU, near
the Prussian border and opposite the
Msiurlan lakes region, curves to the
south and east, running through So
kolow, Sledlce, Lukow, Ostrow and
Vladova.

AMERICA DECLINES
TO ALTER WAR LAWS
Washington. The reply of the Unit
ed States to the protest of Austria-
Hungary against the sale of munitions
of war to the allies is a refusal to ac
cept the Austro-Hungarian view.
In justification of its position, the
United States recited among other
things, that International law, the
practices of nations, the security of
the United States and other nations
without large military or naval estab
lishments and neutrality itself were
opposed to prohibiting the export of
war munitions by a neutral to a belli
gerent in time of war.
The United States contends that it
could not deny to others the right
which it claims for itself to purchase
war munitions from a neutral In event
of a foreign attack. In this connec
tion, the United States hints that it
might have to buy from neutrals if
attacked.
