MEET RESISTANCE "IN EAST PRUSSIA Slav Forces Less Successful in Combat With the Kaiser's Soldiers. ‘London, Sept. 18—Fighting against the rear guard of the Austrians con- tinues all .along the line in Galicia, according to official reports from Pe- trograd. On the left bank of the Riv- er San the Russians are reported to have successfully attacked the retir- ing Austrians. In Eastern Prussia the Russians :declare the German plan to :surround part .of the czar's retiring dorce did not succeed. The several German army corps sent into East Prussia appear to have pushed back the Russian invaders of that territory with great loss to the Russians. It is thought that a part of the German force may be diverted to ‘Russian Poland. In Galicia the Russian successes seem to be continued, with the Aus- trians and Germans falling back on Przemysl. Enormous losses to the Austriuns are admitted at Vienna, to which city thousands of wounded are -being brought. “» Opposing Servian Invasion. “The latest official announcement at ‘Nish claims less for the Servian arms than have earlier statements, indicat- ing that Austria still has considerable forces available to oppose the Ser- vian invasion. The Servians, how- .ever, with the aid of their Montene- i grin allies, appear to be more than holding their own. RN A dispatch from Petrograd to the Reuter’s Telegram company outlines the situation in Eastern Prussia as | follows: “The position of Grodek, occupied by ‘the Russians, is eighteen :miles west of Lemberg and is situated on the heights under ‘which a chain of six almost connecting lakes stretch out toward the Russian frontier, forming a natural defense for fourteen miles running north and south. The Austrians abandoned this position af- ter the capture of Lemberg. . “Mosciska, to which the Russians have advanced, is a little more than forty miles west of Lemberg, but east of Przemysl. The shattered Second Austrian army was evidently incapa- ble of staying the Russian advance, and took refuge on Przemysl, from which the Russians, according to the latest reports, are only nineteen miles away.” . Germans Reported Feeling. The Daily Telegraph correspondent at Petrograd says the news of Rus- sian victories has caused a headlong flight of Germans in the districts of Czenstochowa, Klobickd, Sieradz and Kalisz, 'Russian Poland. sian patrols constantly are widening their radius of action and that the in- habitants of Zurdskawola, southeast of Kalisz, have been given notice to evacuate the town in three days. A special - train is being provided for those who' wish to go to Germany. Messages from Vienna newspaper correspondents in Galicia lay special stress‘ on the -numerical superiority of the Russians, whose army divisions are composed of sixteen battalions of infantry, with cavalry and artillery, and unlimited supplies of ammunition, Austrian soldiers declare that for every Russian soldier killed twenty came in his place. The Russian artillery fire, they said, was wonderfully good, but the imfan- try work was of an inferior order. ¥ is anticipated in Vienna that there will be a temporary lull in the fight- | The correspondent reports the Rus- !
