WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—Tl1e Russian embassy
here today'issued the'following statement in regard to the
movements'of the Russian army:
“On Sept. 5 our troops took the strong fortifications
of Mikolaev, on the Dniester River. The moats of these
works were covered by flanking fire, the artillery placed
in steel cupolas and the whole of the works surrounded by
a triple line'of wire entanglements. We took forty
guns and large stores of supplies and ammunition.
“In Northern Galicia serious fighting is. going on at
Rawa Russka. The first Austrian army, which had been
advancing toward Lublin and Holm, is retreating before
the onslaught of our troops. We are taking prisoners,
guns and ammunition. .
' “In one of the field hospitals that fell into our
hands were found 500 Austrian soldiers ill of dysentery.
This illness is sweeping the ranks of the enemy.
“In East Prussia only skirmishing is taking place."

of the Chronicle at Petrograd, describing General Ruzs-
kys brilliant feat at Lemberg says;
“He hurried his men to the attack so rapidly that
the men slept only three hours each night and frequently
transport trains were left behind.
“Blow after blow was delivered, now to the north
and now to the south, that staggered the Austrians, and
the final batle, lasting a week, drove. them to headlong
flight.
“The Russians areqiow able to concentrate their atten-
tion on the first Austrian army, whose task it has been
to break the Russian line between Lublin and Kholm.
Rarely has an army been in a more critical position than
this Austrian force, and the next few days should decide
the issue.”
