The German embassy gave out a
message from Berlin, received by

Russ Victory Brilliant.
A Rome dispatch to the Temps says
the Russian victory over the Austrians
on the Galician side was brilliant, the
right wing of the Austrian army hav
ing been decisively turned and cut to
pieces, leaving 30,000 prisoners in the
hands of the victors.
On the Vistula front when the Rus
sians encountered the Austrian left
wing the result was somewhat uncer
tain, but the arrival of important rein,
forcements enabled the Russians to
take a vigorous offensive and repulse
the enemy. They captured a large
number of pieces of artillery.
The Russians, the dispatch adds,
executed many bayonet charges
against the Austrians, which had a
large share in deciding the Issue of
the battle. Elsewhere the Germans,
endeavoring to effect a junction with
the Austrians, sought to meet the Rus
sian attack with a counter attack of
fensive, but were repulsed with losses.
Austrian Defeat Colossal.
