THE MILITARY SITUATION.

GERMAN EXPERT'S VIEWS

VICTORY DIFFICULT FOR THE

TEUTONS

(United Service.)

London, July 2

Major Moraht, the German military writer, in the "Berliner Tageblatt," says regarding the general situation: "The position of all the belligerents is critical. Our antagonists, like the Germans, have reached the culminating point of their exertions. It must be admitted that their warfare is being energetically organised. The Allies have learnt a lesson from us, and their large numbers and possession of the sea, together with their great strength, will enable them to render our ultimate victory difficult. The British are going forward very systematically and cautiously, and may be supposed to have colossal quantities of arc munition, because for months past they have been able to transport it across the Channel. We cannot get a step nearer peace without a settlewith the British."
