Th general Russian retirement north
and south of the Vistula continues all
along: the line. General Dimitrleff at
tempting here and there by desperate
fcttacks of detachments to check the
pursuit of Field Marshal Baron Conrad
von Hootzendorf's victorious troops.
The Russians also have launched a vig
orous offensive in Southeastern Galicia
and along the Bukowina frontier as a
diversion.
It is obvious, however, that the last
real Ftand will be made behind the
northwest and southeast lines extend
ing from L.ysa Gora Mountain, north
of the Vistula, to Przemysl, and thence
to the Dneister Kiver and the Rou
manian frontier. The next few days
will show whether the Russians can
liold even a small section of Galicia.
Behind thi3 line General von Hoetzen
clorf has fhown himself a no less mas
terly fttraleKist in pursuit than in plan
ning the first great victory which
broke the line at the Dunajec and ini
tiated the Russian flight from West
Galicia and the Carpathians.
Aruilra Are Kept Orderly.
When the correspondent left head
quarters Monday for a visit to Tarnow
and Gorlice, the front seemed as if the
pause in battle operations usually fol
lowing a great victory had come and
that the troops here would have to in
terrupt their advance for a brief period
in order to give the men a rest from
their exertions, straighten out the line
and advance the railroad communica
tions to new bases.
To the surprise of even military ex
perts. General Conrad von Hoetzendorf
pushed his armies forward in a
strategic plan as cleverly devised and
executed as was planned for Tarnow
and Gorlice. He kept the armies
thoroughly in hand. Checking the
tendency of one body to press forward
unduly, he avoided confusion and kept
the armies in orderly, symmetrical
lines.
T'r.sok Pass la Pivot.
Up to this point the General's scheme
of battle has been to swing tne Austro-
German armies on TJzsok Pass as a
pivot,- Archduke Joseph Ferdinand's
troops in the vicinity of the Vistula,
on the outer wing, having the longest
distance to advance. It is now the turn
of the troops to the eastward of Uzsok
and their advance is in full progress.

their operations. New projects furnish
the only evidence of curtailment up to
this time.
Exports Not Seriously Checked.
Mature reflection appears to have dls
Tclled all fears that the sinking of the
Lusitania will have the effect of check
ing the movement of merchandise from
this country to Europe. While it may
retard passenger service, authorities
point out that the movement of sup
plies will go on as they have in the
past, with the probability that if the
United States becomes involved in the
trouble the addition of the naval forces
would make the seas even safer in the
future against German attacks on com
merce. Bankers declare that under these
conditions the added protection would
remove immediately the uncertainties
of exchange and prohibitive marine
rates. Foreign exchange already has
reflected the condition in a steadier
market and war risk insurance has not
assumed levels which would indicate
demoralization among the underwriters.
While the stock, market felt the shock
of the war, there has been no evidence
of disturbances in the investment situ

Bankers contend that if the United

would be ample resources to take care

The hospital is wonderful and looked
as cheerful as it could with its pale
green tiled wards and its glowing, open

wounded soldiers. One poor hero had

several exceedingly cheerful convales

The more I tried to keep my nerves
and hands steady . the more they shook.
After a few moments of agony we
were all ushered to a dressing-room
and told to prepare for the medical ex

I will spare you the details of this,
but I may say, in passing, that the

served all the positions won yesterday
and consolidated our gain, the Impor
tance of which is emphasized by the
violent effort of the enemy.
"Farther to the south the British
troops inflicted on the Germans a seri
ous check and carried to the southwest
of Richebourg-L'Avou a kilometer of
trenches. At the same time to the
northwest of Festubert they took pos
session of 500 meters of trenches. This
second attack was later pushed for

the number of German losses was high.

Great Tenacity Exhibited.
"In the sector to the north of Arras
we have carried out divers actions with
a view to consolidating our new front.
In driving out the enemy from several
points where they were still holding on
our troops gave proof in the struggle.

"We gained 200 meters on the slope
which descends from the plateau ot
Lorette, near the sugar refinery ot
Souchez. - We have carried some ad
ditional houses in the northern part of
Neuville. We exploded a captive bal
loon to the east of Vimy and our av
ators have bombarded the station or
Soumain.
"The enemy last night exploded a
mine behind our first line. Eight Ger
man companies immediately precipi
tated themselves on our positions and
gained a foothold in one salient.
L,offt Ground Is Recovered.
"We immediately delivered a counter
attack and retook part of the lost
ground, taking 77 prisoners, of whom
three, were officer's. In the course ot
the day we delivered a counter-attack,
which was carried out with much spirit
with bayonet and hand grenades and
resulted with our recapture of all of
the positions.
"The enemy has suffered enormous
losses a fact which has been estab

trenches and on the parapets. We have,
in fact, found more than 1000 German
dead and we . have, in addition, cap

preparations which already have been
repulsed in most places, but fighting
continues at one or two points.
"Farther south, on both sides of the
ridga of Lorette Hills and north of
Arras, renewed French attacks broke
down under our fire. The French suf
fered especially heavy losses in the
Lorette Hills.
"By an attack we took possession
of a strong French vantage point ex
tending over a width of 600 meters
and a depth of 200 meters and held
them notwithstanding three enemy
counter-attacks during the night, in
which our opponents suffered heavy
losses. Much material and 60 prison
ers fell into our hands.
"Between the Meuse and the Mozelle
there were lively artillery duels along
the entire front The only infantry
engagements took place on the western
border of the forest of Lepretre, where
the battle has not yet come to a con

"The first army has made a success
ful attack between Richebourg l'Avoue
and Festubert, breaking the enemy's
line over the greater .part of a two
mile front.
"The attack began at midnight to
the south o,f Richebourg l'Avoue, where
we carried two successive lines of Ger
man breastworks on a front of 800
yards. A mile farther to the south
another attack at dawn carried 1200
yards of German front-line trenches,
and was pushed rapidly on, extending
its success 600 yards farther south by
bombing along the German trenches.
Here we crossed the Festubert-Quinque

of Sanatogen is spread broadcast by the
good it does. Its users are its friends
sincere, enthusiastic, grateful.
Else why chould so many famous people like
John Burroughs, Gilbert Parker, Lady Somerset,
Colonel Watterson, Rear Admiral SiRsbee, for
inatance people whose very names instill confi
dence be so willing to tell over their own sig
natures of the good Sanatogen did them? Why
should more than 21,000 physicians write, as they
have written, so sincerely, ofteo even enthusi
astically of their belief in
Sanatogen t
But if you know you
need the help that Sana
togen gives why should
you wait for a friend to
recommend it to you ?
Surely the overwhelming
testimony in behalf of San
atogen should con vi nee
you that it will help you.
