Revelations at Petrograd Cheapen Hindenburg‘s Vaunted Victories. The muchâ€"talkedâ€"of "Hindenburg‘s strategy" has proven to be a myth. In fact, the veriest novice in military afâ€" fairs could have accomplished his greatest victory, which up till now has been referred to as the "miracle of the Massurian Lakes," in which 100,000 Russians were captured. This highlyâ€" vaunted victory looks cheap in the light of the astounding revelations from Petrograd, which show that Gerâ€" man spies hadâ€" obtained complete copi¢s of all the plans for the Russian invasion of East Prussia. The testiâ€" mony. at the trial of Gen. Soukhomlinâ€" off also showed that the Ministers and officials of the Wid Russian Governâ€" ment were brought up in wholesale fashion, and consequently no great military skill, far less genius, was reâ€" quired to achieve a victory over an army fighting under such conditions. The wonder is still that the old Rusâ€" gia was able to put up as good a d?- fence as it actually did, particularly so when it is considered that the enâ€" tire army had been sold out by the Russian Chief of Staff.
