PETROGRAD, Sept. 15.-(Speclal Cable
gram to New York World and Omaha
Bee.) German reinforcements, rushed to
th reacue of the defeated Austrian
armiea, have blocked the leuaaiun advance
and forced a renewa, of the terrific fight
ing west of Lemberg. 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.
The Russians have been following up
the Austrlana. who have had to retreat
to the edge of the marshy country. But
between Lemberg and Przemysl the Rus
sian pursuit Is now checked, snd heavy,
stubborn fighting has been In progress
during the last three daya along a front
extending forty or fifty mlk-a. J
Htiil Holds Oat.
The Austrian defense here Is strength
ened by the fact that the strongly forti
fied poaltion at Grodek, eighteen miles
west of Lemberg. still holds out against
the Russian aaaault. Two marches west
of Grodek Is the great Russian fortress
Priemysl, which, with Cracow, will aerve
for rallying points of the Austrian armiea
routed from the northern front.
strategically, the position remalna much
the same and equally adverse to the Aus-tro-German
allies, but Instead of the Rus
sians on the line extending from Rawa
Ruska to the Dnelster, breaking through
and attacking the rear of the Austro
Gtrman armies operating toward Lublin
the position la reversed.
The Russians pursuing from the north
are rapidly approaching the rear of the
Austro-Gertnan forces, facing eastward.
Rid of Slow Klementa.
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.
Given abort Rest.
The extraordinary endurance of 'the
Ruaalana is Illustrated by the fact that
the army which took the fortified strong
hold of Mlkolajow (the Auatrlan consul
general In New York denies that it la
fortified) atter two days of fighting were
given only a couple of hours' rest before
being marched off to Join th regiments
fighting before Grodek.
No doubt Is entertained her of the ulti
mate succeas of this fight, but the pub
lio has been called upon to exercise
rather, more . patience than they hav
been accustomed to of late, with Russian
progress being all along so rapid and
victorious.
