The official decision ‘to defend the city of Warsaw is regarded here as important in two ways: Firat, {t indicates that the Germans have been thwarted In their attempts to straighten their front along a north and south line #o that it would extend from Ostrolenka, sixty milos northeast of Warsaw, through San- domir into Galicia, and, second, the Germans have been obstructed in their plans to use Warsaw as winter quarters, RUSSIAN LEFT WING DRIVES INVADING GERMANS BACK. “With the exception of an engase- ment south of Przemysl, where tho Russian left wing ts reported as hav- ing been successful in repulsing the advancing Austrians and Germans, activity at other points on the line appears to have been suspended.

In an official statement, issued to- day, the Russian War Office an- nounces the German advance into Russian Poland, with Warsaw as the objective, has been checked. The Germans, it is announced, have been compelled to fall back. So far as the situation in Galicia is concerned, positive denial ts made that the Austro-German forces have been able to raiso the siege of Przemysl. On the contrary, it is asserted the Austrian stronghold is being gradually reduced by the con- stant fire of the Russian big guns, and that it can hold out hardly more than another week or so. “The Germans were able to ad- vance within ten miles of Warsaw,” reads the statement, “because the Russians planned a battle on ground of thelr own selection.

The port of Dover is closed because the city is fortified, but 1 » port officials have been obliged to admit these® boats carrying hungry women and children fleeing from Belgtum, The railroad facilities are inadequate to accommodate the great crowds. An emergency committee has provided food and water for tho fugitives, but it is unable to give them quarters, as all buildings, and even all homes, in Dover, are filled Seven thousand people from Belgium came here in two days, They were not expected, 1 their advent swamped the town. Of the women on the boats unable jto land many are separated from their husbands and children, who are supposed to have come over on other bouts. All theso refugces left Ox- |tend Wednesday night. ‘The cap- tains of ships which already have docked declare they saw hundreds jof persons leaving Ostend in small rowboats, hoping to reach some point on the French coast Hundreds of others boarded little trawlers and sailboats which are still struggling into Dover. Their passengers often have been without food for thirty- six hours, Many small boats from | Belgium are also putting into Lowes- toft and Folkstone, Thfse craft are manned mostly by volunteers who know nothing of English ports and head in wherever they can see dock- ing facilities There are many Antwerp refugees among the crowds from Dover, When |some of these were asked if they | would be willing to return to Ant~ | werp in case arrangements for ee with repatriation can be completed |the German Government }clared emphatically that t would return so long as the were in possession. It in estimated that 35,000 refugecs have landed here and at Folkestone since Wednesday, Several thousand other Belgians have ccime here fre H awaiting ships. Many refugees who started to walk from Ostend to Ca- lais were picked up by ships which stopped at Nieuport 1 other small places on the coast. they were compelled to give way and now have been driven back more than twenty miles, While the fight- ing continues it is almost entirely tu our_advantage. “The German centre was finally pierced in a serios of desperate charges by the Russian forces and the wings were compelled ta, retreat hurriedly in order to avoid belng over- whelmed.
