UNBROKEN RUSSIA
COLD AND CALCULATED STRATEGY ENEMY IN DANGER ON THE DNIESTER (By Telegraph —Press Aysc.eiutifin.— Copyright.) (Received June 28, 10 a.m.) PETROGRAD, 27th June. Eight weeks of the tremendous onslaught have failed to conquer the Russians , in Qalicia. The Russians temporarily retreated, inflicting astounding losses on bheir assailants, while their own casualties were comparatively insignificant. Generals yon Mackenzen and Linsingen were outgeneralled, inasmuch as fcho Russian armies are still unbroken, and hold together in a line outside the enemy's. Meanwhile, the Germans on the left bank of the Dniester are defeated. The German leaders in this region are impatient at the success of the- Russians' cold and calculated strategy. When expelled from the villages on the river bank, they worked hard to throw pontoons across the river, but the Russians, with a devastating artillery fire, retained complete control. There are indications that the Germans employed on the Dniester, unless they quickly extricate themselves, are likely to encounter a series of inglorious reverses. The oermans have begun a violent artillery outbreak on the WirballenKovno front (north Poland). The Russians have recovered the ground lost at the Orzec, and captured five machine guns. (
