Berlin, July 25, via London— The advance of the Austro-Ger- man forces in eastern Galicia con- tinues uninterruptedly, the war office announces. Tarnopol has been captured and the Germans are nearing Buccaraz., Heavy artillery fighting is in progress in Rumania on the front of Field Marshal Von Mackensen. The statement also reports the capture of Stanislau and Nad- vorna. Copenhagen, July 25.—A semi-offi- clal German report describes as strik- ing panorama the retreat of the Rus- sian armies in Galicia. Retiring col- umns stretching to the horizon can ~plainly be observed from numerous vantage points. The retreat occa- sionally degenerates into a full rout, particularly under the influence of the Austro-German flield guns which are abreast of the infantry vanguards and dash forward to & hill to perform where they pour a demoralizing fire into the masses crowded in the roads. < Additional quantities of munitions, provlslons and six heavy guns were captured. Another report says that FROM GALICIA BERLIN EDITORS AGREE WITH ENGLISH PREMIER Is Unexpected Frankness Shown in Criticism of Michaelis’ Speech. Copenhagen, July 26—Premier Lloyd George’s skepticism regarding Chan- cellor Michaelis’ good faith, his doubts that the chancellor’s reply to the Reichstag resolution really means what it pretends to mean, his belief that the reference of peace-professing statements to the security of frontiers, capable of being extended at will to cover the absorption of Belgium and any other desired annexations, re- ceived unexpected Jjustification and corroboration from German sources in a growing frankness of criticism. It was declared yesterday that Chan- cellor Michaelis’ speech was ambigu- ous and open to two interpretations which Lloyd George mentioned. It was added that the policy of silence as to political aims, inaugurated by ex- Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hollweg and continued by Herr Michaglis, had lald the German policy open to that dubious report which Lloyd George criticised. His picture of German parliamentarism under the formula of Herr Michaelis may be distorted, so it was declared, but it contains enough truth to serve as a warning to the German people. The Berlin Tageblatt reprints the full text of Lloyd George’s reply to the German chancellor, explaining that this is advisable because remarkable errors of distortion and omission in the sense desired by the government crept into summaries of earlier declar- ations from the opponent eamp, which were supplied by the semi-official ‘Wolft News bureau.

New Commander in Baltic. “ Petrograd, July 25.—Rear Admirafl Razvozoff has been appointed com- mander-in-chief of all the Russian na- val forces in the Baltic. The newspapers Monday announced that Rear Admiral Verdervski, com- Thander of the Baltic fleet, had been arrested for communicating a secret government telegram to sailors' com- mittees. Halicz Threatened by Germans. Petrograd, July 25.—The line of the southwestern front is ap- proximately that occupled after Gen. Brussiloff’s drive last summer, except before Tarnopol, where the enemy succeeded in pushing further into Russian territory. The fate of the lat- ? ter town was virtually decided when the Germans held the Just across the Sereth river easy run gun range. The Germans chose the junction point of the seventh and eleventh ar- mies for beginning their offensive, the first blow being struck between Zbor- ff and Pebaki on a 20 mile front. Vl(hout great effort, it is admitted in the Russian official - communications, they pursued their advance to the line of the Sereth. This converging the Russian positions south of Tarnopol, forced a retirement all along the di- agnol line southwestward, cutting the Strypa and Zlota Lipa to Halicz and «the Lomnica. The Russians have been obliged to retire to the right bank of the latter river and Halicz is seriously threatened, with a prospect of a further retirement to the original Russian positions east of Stanislau, occupied before Gen. Brussiloff's ad- vance. One of the first results has been a _keneral agitation for a restoration of *the death penalty for insubordination In the army and for treasonable con- guct on the part of the agitators. General Korniloff, commander on the southwest front, has issued orders to all subordinate commanders to open fire on deserters and troops refusing to obey orders. Premier Kerensky has ranctioned the efforts to restore dis- ipline. Many Maximalists, to whose 'igitntlon the demoralization of the troops is directly attributed, have been arrested. suburb within Women's Regiment in Actlon. Petrograd, July 25.—The Russian women's battalion, raised by the twice wounded girl officer Vera Butchkaroff, was in action on the front at Krevo avesterday for the first time.

Paris, July 25.—The labors of the Allied conference will not be limited to the Balkans. For one thing it is important to clear the air after the Relchstag action last week. Although Premier Lloyd George has already re- plied to a certain extent to the speech of Chancellor Michaelis it is desir- able, says the Matin, that the Allies should issue a joint statement on what happened at Berlin so that Ger- many’s peace Imaneuver may every- where be checked and reasons given, where they are needed, why the Allles cannot accevt the Reichstag resolu- tion as a basis for peace negotiations. This explanation ,adds the Matin, will be principally addressed to the peoples of Russia and Austria-Hun- gary. There must be no risk of Russian revolutionaries being duped by the Reichstag and the Allies must demonstrate to them what would be the result in Europe if Germany’s crimes are allowed to go unpunished. At the same time the Austro-Hun- garian press, evidently acting under orders from the foreign office, is try- ing to create the impression that the Reichstag made concessions which the Allies are likely to regard as dic- tated by a spirit of conciliation. It is necessary to remove all doubts on this subject and show the peoples of Austria-Hungary how complete and final would be their subservience to Germano-Magyar domination if peace were now made on a basis of no annexations and no indemnities.

The principal companies involved by the strike are the Aguillar Oil com- pany, the British Pieice Oil corpor: tion and the Huasteca Oil. company, American.
