The 8t. Petersburg correspondent of

capture of Lemberg and Halloa says;
'The establishment of Russian author

facilitated by ths fact that the native
Plar population, after long experience
with the tyrannical policy of Oermany in
time of peace, welcomes the advent of
the Russians, even under ths stern con
ditions of war.
"The Lemberg victory Is a signal tri

Russian commander-in-chief and entirely
reconciles the public, to tha severe .cen
sorship which enabled htm. to carry out
protracted, operations 'over a vast terri
tory without tha enemy getting a alnglc
hint to give them alarm.
' Until the two Russian armies operat

magnificent opportunity to a vigorous
enemy to get In between them and deal

. "That the Russian forces, during the
preparation of their real attack, were
merely playing with the Austrian ad

safely assumed from the fact that when
the Austrian main force did finally at
tempt a forward movement they only
covered . twenty-four miles from Zavtk

forces marched and fought . over more
than seven times this distance.
"As r understand the situation the

"The Russians have occupied passes

twice as far from the present Russian
position as has been covered by them
since they left Po1 oil a for the Invasion

."On the east Prussian front nothing
Important has happened during the last

that Germany has hurried troops to the

Needy Americans
Apply for Relief
LONDON, Aug. 7.-Among the 2.000
Americans who crowded the rooms of the
American relief committee when It evened
this morning were those who came over
from Havre on the American cruiser Ten
nessee. The remainder were crlcfly from
Flushing, Ostend and Rotterdam, and
were largely Americanised Germans who
are virtually without money and who
must be assisted back, to the I'nlted
States by ths committee.
Refugees from Germany say there Is
still a large number of American cili'sens
In Germany who are unable to get out
because of the limited train facilities. A
large proportion of the fugitives who are
applying to the committee for relief are
absolutely penniless. The crowd this
moming was so great that the committee
merely gave applicants enough money to
buy something to rat and issued card
which will be presented in the day to the
finance committee for further help.
Herbert C. Hoover, chairman of the
committee, does not believe that the con
tinent will be free of American refugees
for thirty days yet. Those arriving today
are in much greater need of help than
the earlier arrivals, being mostly persons
of limited means who hav exhausted
their funds.

LONDON, Aug. 7. Belief ' Is
growing that a great, decisive bat
tle lg being fought at Volun, the
etrong fortress of France on the
Meuse," near the French frontier.
If the fourth German army,
marching southward, cuts off the
retreat of the French eastern
armies, which recently have been
holding the Germans In check be
tween Toul, a fortified town four
teen miles west of Nancy, and Ep
inal, also strongly fortified and near
the Alsace frontier, It might repeat
the coup which In 1870 drove Gen
eral Charles Dents Sauter Bourbakt
and bis army of 150,000 men Into
Switzerland.
.. To Insare Retreat..
Hopeful critics are speculating on the
possibility that the German swing around
to the south may mean an effort on the
part of the Invaders to make sure of their
retreat through the Meuse district, but
more likely it is scheme to1 strike suoh
paralysing blow to the French army
as to render the Investment of Paris a
safe operation.-
The southerly movement of the Ger
mans may effect junction of the crown
prihee's army and the army of Bavaria,
which has been held on the defensive In
Lorraine. Thus the Germans would ad
vance from the east and north in a vast
enveloping movenmt destined to cruhh
the allies right wing by sheer weight of
numbers. Just as their left was pushed
back during the last fortnight. .
These preliminary movements. If show.

Germans rails that the siege of Paris,
even Its occupation, la quite- worthless

allies are free In the field.

Corroboration of the above mentioned
theory Is contained In a dispatch from

'the opposing forces are. almost equally

Use of Fresh Troops
Aids German Arms
LONDON. Sept. 7.-A dispatch to the
Evening fitar from Rotterdam says that
during the first nineteen days of the war
more than 2.600 trains bearing. 2,000,000
troops for the western theater of the war
passed over the five bridges over the
Rhine at Cologne.
Notwithstanding this enormous army,
reinforcements are still being hurried to
the front, not only to take the place of
the hufte number killed and wounded but
In order to carry out the eminently Ger
man plan that so far as possible fresh
troops be hurled at men who already have
borne the burden of the day.
In addition to the tremendous siege guns
of the Germans, ordinary field pieces have
been hurried forward. ,
An American who has Just arrived from
Cologne says . the Star's correspondent
states that he met a wounded Oerman
officer, who told him that the success of
the Germans was due entirely to the fact
that the troops had a rest after the en
gagement. The army corps were being
used in shifts to keep them fresh.

LONDON. Sept. 7.-A protest against
the destruction of the Belgian city of
Louvaln by German troops, and an ap

and cltisenship, which no military exigen
