It is understood, the despatch adda, that the’ Austrian railway officials, the police and municipal officers and others who fied trom Precmys! when the fortress capitulated to the Rus- slans, have now gathered at Cracow ready to return to the recaptured city. ‘The retaking of the Praemysi fort- reas is characterized by British ob- servers as one of the most remark- able feats of the war. The strength of the Russian garrison within the fortress has not been known in Lon- don, The expenditure of the Germanic allies in men and ammunition has perhaps outdone anything in this war, not even excepting the German rushes for Calnis and the terrible struggles ng the ¥aer River, BERLIN (via London), June 8.— ‘The official statement to-day “The fortified town of Praemysi was token by us early this morning after the @ortifications on the nortiern front which still held out had been stormed during the night. The Amount of booty taken has not yet been ascertained. “Loe army under Gen, vou Lin- singen is penetrating the district of Zydacsow, northeast of Biry, and fighting for the Dniester gestion east of Mikolajow, The booty taken in the battle of Btry has been increased to sinty oMcere and 13,176 mea.” ‘The great Austro-Hungerias tort- rene of Preemysl, situated between | | ook: Lamberg and Cracow in the province of Galicia, was captured by the Kus. siane on March 22 last after one of the longest sieges of modern wartare. in the ton weeks whieh hi elapsed since that time, however, the Aus triane and Germans have made every effort to retake the fortress, large forces being diverted for this purpose from the other great fortress to the weet, Cracow, Hecent dexpatches from the Galio- jam trout were to the effect that the Austso-German troops had been eve- constul in their operations te the north and the southeast of the fert- rem and that the forte girdiing the position bad beew tases.
