‘London: The political turmoil
which has Been convulsing Ger-
,many ever since Russia’s first
“startling Success in a resumption
of the offensive has culminated
for the present in in the resigna-
tion of Hollweg, but all indica-
tions serve to show that: his
- resignation, far from being the
last act in the drama, is but the
beginning of far-reaching devel-
opments, which are bound to ef-
fect the fabric of the German
empire aid will Have momentous
consequences on the progress of
the war. Dr. George Michaelis, :
who sueceeds Hollweg, is a bu-
reaucrat of the old type, whose
appointment can scarcely be re-
garded as promising much in the
direction of parliamentarization
of Germany.

General von Stein, the Prussian
war minister, a bitter opponent
of peace without annexations and
indemnities, has résigned,

[It is rumored that Emperor
William I] has abdicated ir: favor
of his son Joachim. The rumor

Petrograd: Russia’s victorious
troops made a further advance in
eastern Galicia, where the Aus-
tro-German lines are shattered
by Korniloff’s drive, capturing-
the village of Novica, southwest
of Kalusz. Two:enemy counter-
attacks,in an attempt to dislodge
the Russians from Kalusz, were
repulsed.

Elsewhere on the Russo-Gali-

- cian front, the situation remains
unchanged. Apparently the Rus-
sians have paused to father their
foregs for a further drive, Ger-
many reports considerable activ-
ity near Dyinsk and Smorgon,

London: . The French and Brit-
-ish armies on the west front are
still idle except for local opéra-

tions, Stiff fighting occurred on
Friday ‘night in’ Belgium, near
Lombaertzyde. Berlin announces
that British attacks broke down
with heavy losses. British re-
ports say Germans made a fruit«
less attack in that sector, Heavy
artillery fighting is in progress
near St Quentin and between
Craonne and Courcy, with indi-

‘ cations of a renewal of the bitter]
