PETROGRAD, Sept. 16, (United Press).—-With Russian troops closing ‘in on the strong Russian fortress of Przemysl and the fortified positions alonx the San to Jaroslav, and with Grodek and Misciska already occupied by the Czar’s troops, it was Announced at Army Headquarters to-day that the main objective of the Russian-Austrian campaign is rapidly coming to @ successful conclusion. Strong detachments of Cossask cavalry are reported Jo have penetrated to the westward of the San River fortifications and to have reached as far as Jaslo. This indivates that the advance against Cracow is not to walt on the result of the operations along the San, but will be pushed indepen- dently while the San River positions are enveloped by a superior force. The Austrian force that has been cut off in the triangle formed by the junction of the Vistula and the San is reported attempting to break through the cordon that now surrounds it, but it is belleved certain here that it must soon surrender, It was officially announced to-day that in the capture of Grodek the Austrians lost 400 light fleld guns and twenty howitzers. PETROGRAD, Sept. 16 (Central News).—The Russians aro steadily advancing. The line from Cracow to Przemys! has already been severed aud the investment of those fortresses has already begun. The rapid advent of the Russian forces has cut the lines of Austrian communication from Galicia to Budapest. Russian cavalry bas reached the station of Lysko (Lisko, town of 5,000 population, nearly 100 miles southwest of Przemys! and a little less than that distance from the Hun- gariau border). Its occupation cuts off Austrian retreat in that direction. It is believed that the Austro-German army at Cracow and Przemysl must inevitably surrender when the lines are drawn more closely around it and the railways into the heart of the country are severed. PETROGRAD, Sept. 16.—The following summary of the recent fighting in Galicia, from the Russian point of view, has been made public in Petro- grad through semi-official channels. “Russian troops are pushing the Austrians with energy, and thedefeat of the enemy continues, Certain Austrian army corps bave been virtually annihilated. Russian forces have passed the River San. “Among the four hundred guns captured are more than thirty-six German cannon marked with the initials of Emperor William. These came from the fields occupied by the Sixth German Corps.” “The Eastern Russian advance guard is approaching Przemysl. Ac- cording to such information as has come to hand the Austrians have lost & in the neighborhood of 250,000 men in killed and wounded; this in addition to 100,000 prisoners, 400 pieces of ordnance and a number of standards. “The desperate efforts of German troops to save the Austrian army from utter rout should be recorded. The Russians captured thirty-six pleces of long range German artillery in addition to some 5,000 German prisoners at Tourobine. At other places on the front several dozen large German guns fell into their hands.” This announcement declares that the succor sent by Germany did not save the Austrians and that the heavy defeat inflicted upon the Germans has contributed to the brilliancy of the Russian victories, . | cat: REPORT NAVAL BATTLE OFFICIALLY FROM BERLIN BUT WITHHELD DETAILS. LONDON, Sept. 16 (United Press).— Although it 1s accepted in official cireles that a naval battle has been fought in the Baltic, no information concerning the outcome 1s obtainable here. “Des- patches from Petrograd vaguely refer to the presence of the German fleet in the Gulf of Finland and to their bom- bardment of “unprotected positions,” but they are so badly mutilated by the censor that their information does not enlighten.
