Fhe campaign on both sides ap- pears to 'be in a state of transition. This is particularly true in the cast- where the Russians are concentrating tremendous forces on cither wing, while fhe-Germans are still pounding away in the centre to- wards Warsaw. For the present, the greatest Russian effort westward and northward in Northern Poland. Hungary is being scripusly menaced by Russia, and' the removal of Von Berelitold indicates serious internal dissension. in Austria, so that Ger many will be forced to take steps now, before it is too late, to stiffen the opposition to the invading forces in Hungary, and overawe the disaffect- cd elements. The invasion of Ger- many proper, when it comes, is like- iy to be by forces that have crossed the great Hungavian plain and cap- tured Budapest. In the western arena it would ap- is | . pear that the German army and peo- ple are worried by the dormant state of the German campaign, that it is felt that the allied gains must be recovered, and that advanced ground should be acquired before the tre- mendous reinforcements that Britain and France have prepared have a chance to make their influence felt. The allies are now in no danger on 'the western front, and although Rus- sin has suffered appalling losses, there is no evidence that she is not equal to her task. For the next two months, operations on this side are likely to pivot on Warsaw or a point thirty miles west of Warsaw, the linc pointing north-westward towards Thorn being like the small hand of a clock, and the line south-westward to Bukowina the large hand. - decked Sd ddd pbb bob dod dele ve Ld VERY REMARKABLE.
