EIA montana afar.
Never in the history of Charlotte-
town was there such a scene on the streets as that in -connection with the( farewell parade of the 105th Overseas Highland Regiment yesterday after- noon. The parade was scheduled to leave the Armouries at 5 o’clock and long before the hour the streets were thronged with carrlagesand autos and the sidewalks lined with pedes- trians. Among the visitors were the parents of many of the boys from the country. Practically the whole City was on the streets while flags waved. from many buildings in honour of the lsiand’s first regiment. The whole battalion was massed in the vicinity of the Armouries and the boys and their friends had an opportunity for handshaklngs and_ good wishes of which many took advantage. To the disappointment of all, about six o’clock. it was. announced that the Carferry on which the Regiment was to embark -would not arrive until 10 o’clock. The boys were marched to their respective quarters and the crowds melted away. The steamer which left Charlottetown in the morn- ing was held up by n dense fog in the strait and did not reach Picton lili 4.40 p. m. making it impossible for her to return. She arrived in Char- lottetown at 11.30 and at one this morning the regiment was again mus- tered and paraded to the Marine Wharf. Notwithstanding the late hour a great many citizens turned out to repeat the good-hyes and good wishes of the afternoon, The Car- ferry with her precious freight on board and accompanied hy the fervent prayers of thousands left the wharf about three o’clock for Pictou where the boys will entrsin for Quebec and thence for Valcartier where, in all probability they will remain all sum- mer.
Following are the names of the ofii- cers and men of the 105th Overseas Highland Regiment who have left for
Valcartler.

PETROGRAD, June 12.-The num-
ber of Austrians captured by the Rus- sians in the new offensive operations has been increased to more than 114. 000. In many sectors of the front the statement says, the Russians are still pursuing the defeated Austrians. `The statement follows: “0wlng to storms in south Russia and the con- sequent temporary rupture of tele- graphic communication, reports are delayed and news of our armies res- tricted. Nevertheless it is confirmed that Gen. Bruslloi’f's offensive con- tinued yesterday. In many sectors on the front we are still pursuing the defeated Austrians and in some places we attacked him hotly.» He counter attacked with desperation. The total prisoners-now amounts to 15,000 ofiicers and 113,000 men.
The following details of the lighting

PETROGRAD, Via London, June 12.
-The similarity between General Brusiloif'g advance in the week and the Russian drive against the Austri- ans at the beginning of the war, is generally commented upon here. One difference, however, is pointed out- that General Brueiioff's initial blow has been considerably more effec-tivo land the retreat of the Austrians be. fore it more precipatate -that during Austrianf line along the Strlfa, as the initial events in 1914. The military, authorities regard the piercing of the perhaps of greater importance than

Assuming that the Austrians, even
with the aid of the Germans, are un- able to push the Russians back, here, it will mean that the Austrians them- selves must fall back along the whole line northward and quickly, in order to maintain a formidable front. lt is pointed out that an orderly retreat with such gigantic armieg is an ex- tremely dlfiicult task. Once they are on the move and with the Russians pounding at their rear, it is contend- ed the great drive of 1914 through Poland and Galicia is likely to be repeated.
There are still no oiiiciai reports of
the Austrians losses, but the estimates here, which are considered conserva. tive place them at 200,000.

-Field Marshal Earl Kitchener‘s death has profoundly affected the whole of Russia. His proposed visit to Russia has been looked forward lo with intense interest, not only by ofii- ciala but by the public generally. as evidence of the further cenienting oi the growing' cordiality between Great Britain and Russia, and oe a concrete. token of -complete coordination be- tween the lighting forces of tho res- pective countries. Russiafs remotoness from her Allies has prevented l.he close co-operation which exists be. tween Franco and Great Britain, and llari Kitchener‘s visit was expected to unify Russia's efforts with tho other nations with which her lot is cast. For this reason the loss of the British war secretary has come to Russia as a national calamity. Foreign Minister Sa- zonoif, immediately the nows_of. Earl Kitchener's death was releived here. cabled an expression of sympathy to I London on behalf of the imperial gov-
