The czar's com manders are naving to hold their lines while moving up reinforcements in an ef fort to crush the Austro-Gcrman allies, who are reported reorganized and rclh aplrlted by German leadership.

Presumably the strength of the Aus trian defense Is due, not only to strong reinforcements, Including the German corps, but also to the fact that probably the Austrian armies operating here have by this time purged off their non-Ger-manlo elements. The discontented PlaV' regiments of various nationalities have seised every available opportunity to give themselves up as prlBonera to the -flrat Russians they could meet. Indeed, the Auntrlana have been com pelled before giving battle to so order their line that Austrian, Czech, Croate, Ruthenlan and Magyar, as far aa possible, alternated with one another, while all the Maxima were manned aa far as pos sible by Germanic races only and are al ways officered by Germans.

Rnaalan Beem Sarreaafnl. In Ruasian ' Poland the Ruaalans still seem to be successful, while operating against the Austrians alone, but they are making less Impression on the combined German armies on the Vistula, . The stand being made In Vistula has caused Several military experts at Petrograd to assert that German, reinforcements Xrom France are tming sent it Gsllcla Instead of to East Prussia, .as was at first re ported. This Is done according to the opinion of these experts, because Germany feared that an overwhelming disaster of the, Austrian forces might lead th dual. mon archy .to conclude, peace independently of Germany. Other expert observers In Petrograd ar equally firm In th opinion that the German veterans from the fields of . Belgium . and France have been sent to east Prussia,. where their presence Is believed to account ior the Russian check. The most substantial gain by Ruasian forces within the last twenty-four- hours has been th capture of Tomasiow, which probably clears the way for th advance of the Russian center on the A us tro-Gorman forces on th Vistula liver.
