ITALIAN OFFENSIVE IS HELD BACK BY FEAR OF DEFEAT (Continued from Pake 1.) practically guaranteed. » Lemberg Expected to Fall. The operations against Lemberg this week began to reach their eli- max. The Slavs are making a final stand almost at the city gates, but they have little hope of success, for the Lemberg defenses are greatly in- ferior to those at the San, so re- cently demolished by the Austro- Germans. Lemberg itself is not a fortified camp like Przemysl. It is an open town which depends on field operations for its protection. If Lemberg capitulates, only two more large Galician cities will re- main to be taken before the entire province passes back into Austrian possession. They are Tarnpool and Brody, within a few miles of the Rus- sian border, in eastern Galicia. Sev- enty-five per cent of the population of Brody are Jews and the town is frequently called “Little Jerusalem.” MEETING WAS BIG SUCCESS (Continued from first page). vote of thanks to the gentlemen who so royally and willingly provided for the pleasure of the delegates in the way of the delightful auto trip on Saturday afternoon around Lake Be- midji. “3.—Resolved, that we tender our heartfelt thanks to T.

Re- cruits arrive here daily from all parts of the empire. Military and naval attaches to the various embassies here tell me that the submarine fleet which Turkey now has is sufficient to prevent the passage of both the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles, regardless of their defenses. Although English subma- rines have entered the Sea of Mar- mora, they cannot reach the prin- cipal units of the Turkish fleet which are kept moored behind impassible barriers.
