By Associated Pre
The demoralised condition of tha
Russian army Is permitting great
gains by the Germans oa the aastara
froat, and it seems more than prob
able that all the ground galaai In tta
recent great offensive will be lost. It
is hoped that Premier Kereaskys ar
rival at the froat will be somdeatly
timely to prevent farther disorganisa
tion and to stem the Teataa aa
siaught. With the kaiser and Karaa
sky both at the froat. great efforts
are sure to be made by each side.
The Russian shaken armies are still
retreating, and It Is ladleatad that
they will not stop until the aproxl
mate line occupied by General Brus
slloff lsst year has been reached, lu
the district of Tarnpol the Germans
have pushed further Into the Russian
territory.
The tone at Petrograd Indicates
that the armys disorganisation will
be adequately dealt with, and that a
Arm front will be again presented to
the enemy, on acount of Germany's
admission that they uavent eaough
men to prosecute a lengthy offensive,
in Galacla. Russia haa big reserves.
