RUSSIANS AND HUNS
IN GREAT BATTLE
Battle Raging Along Pripet River
which will Change Aspect ni Easl- ern Front within iew days.
PETROGRAD, via I.ondon,»Dec. 31.
-The German and Russian oillcial bulletins regarding the operations south of the Pripet ltivcr laconicnlly declare that the battles are proceed- ing. The importance of thc ongagc- ments scenls to be considered by lilo Russian military critics are great.
The General Staff commentaries lay
stress oil the difference between iliosc struggles and the last notable colli- sions between the Russians and Teu- tous before thc period of calm. The battles of (lzartorysk, Nova Aloxiouiec aild elsewhere between the Prlpct Iilvcr and the ilarpathian Mountains were sporadic and designed only to correct positions olt different parts of the lille before the cessation of stru- tegic movements oil account oi' the approach of winter,
it is agreed now that it struggle is
proceeding on the entire south-wcst
‘ line, alid that apparently it is equally ardent everywhere. It is intimated that both sides are aiming at the ac- .complishment of exceedingly import- irlllt tasks. The Russians and Tclltons |ilrc cqilnlly illert, each side ilorc and there taking the initiative. c
Tho i-xpectation llerc is that lllc out-
come oi' this gigantic, hilt still obscure. ‘struggle will he a transformation of lille military positions in the Russian 'lhcalro of war. While it is ipoiutgd lout that Germany hits not' lost inter- i ost ill thc llortllcrli hall' of this theatre, |it is iutinliiteil that her activity there ‘is ilesiglivii mainly to inspire the bc- ‘lllcf that sllc has not removed her 'troops from thcrc.
I lt is lllmnimollsly agreed among lllc military observers that the aspect ot' `thc Eastcrll front will be cliilnged within tilrcc or four iiuys.

P-issible Resignation From Brili»h Cabinet
LONDON, Dec. 30.-The Daily Ex-
press asserts that there is a group of at least three Unionlsts in the cabinet, led by the Earl of Selborne, President of the Board of Agriculture, who are likely to resign because Premier As- quith's plan for a modified conscrip- tion does not go far enough.
" These men contend that it .is
wrong to force all the single men to serve in the army. when there is a large proportion of married men who could be spared more easily. and that altogether the Premier's plan is a use- less compromlse," says the paper. The Express, therefore, anticipates a fair crop of resiguations among the sup- porters of voluntary eillistments, and the determined conscriptions. but says the resignations will not he serious enough to lmperll the existence of the Government.
The paper also expresses the opinloll that the Earl of Derby, director ot re- crultln8. will find a place in the recon- structed mlnistry. ’
According to the Daily Sketch, the'
Government has a Bill under con- sideration embodying the following method of securing recruits:-When it is decided to call to the colours any attested group under the Earl of Derby's plan it day will be fixed fel- the men in that articular rou to e-
Until that day any unattested bachelor of the age stipulated for that group may volunteer for tile army and by so volunt'serln|.wili escape the stigma of compulsion. but all failing to volun-

The Austrian reply further express-
