A Venice dis patch to the Morning Post says: "The fall of Cracow Is expected at any moment. The city Is Invested on the north and parts are ablaze. The Inhabitants aro in flight. The Russian forcetf havo made a vory rapid ad--vance and reached Cracow sooner than expected.

London, Nov. 10. The coming of ( inter has partly paralyzod tho move inents of tho troops, both in the east and west theaters of war. The Russians on the border of east Prussia are reported to bo marching through snpw, clad In sheep skin jackets similar to those which tho Japanese firdt wore in Manchuria Blizzards have swept tlie trenches in Belgium and northern Franco and brought great suffering to tho wound ed aG well as to tho men in tho fields. A largo area of west Flanders around Dixmude has been flooded by the heavy rains and is no-man's lnnd for lighting. Allies Claim Advantage. The French and German roport3 today are contradictory as regards tho pi ogress of tholr armies in tho west yesterday. Berlin says there was only slight nctlviity because of tho snow storm. Paris announced that tho Ger mans in attempting to cross tho canal near Dixmude were thrust back, whjlo the allies recaptured several strategic points, repulsed two German attacks southeast of Ypres and "entirely de stroyed" a general regiment south of Bixschootc. An observer with the British army who furnishes tho newspaper reports from tho front announces that tho German attempts to batter a wedgo through the British lines have de creased greatly in force during the past few days, and that thoy bear no resemblnnco to tho attacks in great force launched against Ypres at tho end of October. They aro more in ! tho naturo of a demonstration In force than serious nssaults, he declares. Tho writer pays high tribute to the bravery of raw German youths and men of middle age, who, he sayf8, do not hesitate to march against tho tranied British troops. WAR SUMMARY. Nov. 17. Tho latest official account of the fighting in West Flanders, is sued by tho British press bureau, cov ering the period from November 4 to 9, roviows tho desperate attempts of the Germans to pierce the British lines; the shelling of Ypres; tho dead ly effect of British and French guns against Gorman positions; the brav ery of the German youths in tho front lines, and pays tribute to "the Prus sian war machine, which, acting on a- nation previously Inured to tho nternest discipline has attained tho most remarkablo results." But with all thlB terrific fighting noithor sldo has been able to gain any material advantage. Thoy are keeping at it yith the same determination that has ,'haracterized the entire progross of the war, though rains havo swept tho trenches, snow has fallen and tho men are suffering hardships that would seem almost unendurable. Likowise in the oastern arena the troops fac ing each other now have wintry con ditions to contend with, but the frost is helping tho Muscovite forces to move rapidly on the East Prussian frontier. The morassos and tho soft roads havo been frozen over, making easier tho movement of men, artillery nnd transports. A newspaper report received in Ven ice says that Cracow, In Gallcia, is m flro nnd that its inhabitants are .n flight. Tho British say that In tt.'o octlons igainst the Turks at Fao, In tho Per sian gulf, they havo "severely handie.1 ind dofoatod tho Ottomans." Tho Turks also have lost 260 mon and wo guns In tho bombardment of tho 'orts in tho Dardanelles by tho war-ihlp-i of tho allies, Atroidlng to tho German olllcial in ?prt the operations in Flanders are jropr, R--ing slowly, but In toe Argonno list 'n haie uchlevoJ furth" im. r i v P land ti i lict- i (t out (" 'ill 'ts, , I Field Marshal Attack of Pneumonia.

Break Through Allies' Lines. "Tho attack was pressed with the greatest bravery and determination. Owing to the gallantry of our troops and thoir splendid resistance against groat odds the attempt to penetrate to Ypres was repulsed, but the weight of tho enemy's advance enabled thorn to break through our linos at three points. They were, however, hurled back and proventod from gaining fuithcr ground. "An immense loss was Inflicted on tho enomy, 700 of their dead being found on tho around behind our front trenches alona. The casualties suffered by them in advancing up to our line under direct and onllladed fire must havo been enormous. Our casualties also were heavy. We took 1,300 pris oners." French Official Report.
