PETROGRAD, June 24.-The Rus-
sian retirement through Galicia, fol-
lowing the evacuation of Lemberg, is
likened by Russian critics to Joffre's
retreat to the Marne, during the first
part of the war. They explain that
suchsuccessful retirement in keeping
the army intact is now equivalent to
a defeat of the invaders. As Joffre
was not afraid to permit the Germans
to advance near Paris, so the Rus-
sians claim not to be alarmed by the
approach of Austro-German forces to
Russian territory. The evacuation of
Lemberg, it is felt here. can have no
strategic importance other than the
loss of a largely populated centre.
The firmness of the Russian stand on
the River Tanew leads to the belief

and
that the Russians will soon reach
their own barrier, where, upon being
f0lnf0l’C€d. lt may prove the German
elation over the victory to have been
premature. This belief is strengthen-
ed by the fact that the German army
is unable to make material progress
at other points along this front. Thus
far German operations in the region
of Lemberg have exerted no apparent
effect on the situation along the
Dnelster River. At only one point on
the entire length of the river. which
for weeks marked the south-eastern
fighting line, have the Austro-Germans
managed to establish themselves with
any permauency on the right bank.
Here in the region near Nizenlow the
Germans effectually crossed the river,
but. according to details to-any or the
severe battle at this point, the Austro-
Germaus have been repulsed with
heavy losses and compelled to sacri-
fice many strongly fortified positions.
They still maintain the position on
the right of the river. On the front
from Tanew to the line west of Rawka-
Ruska the Germans were successfully
held. There is no weakness in the
Russian position in evidence here, as
a result of the Russian evacuation of
Lemberg. Russian observers are op-
EIIDIBUC regarding the early recapture
of _the Galician capital. The city
suffered no property damage.
(Special to the Guardian.)
LONDON, June 24.-Discussing the
situation, which necessitates the Rus-
sian retirements in Galician, the Morn-
ing Post's Petrograd correspondent
says:
“The Russians now realise that the
war is still in its preliminary stages.
The enemy's national military organ-
isationis so admirable and complete
that the Allies must have time. many
months. perhaps years, to wear down
the enormous initial advantages of
German aggression. The Russians
believe the end is more than ever
sure. but still very far off.
"The Galician campaign shows that
Germany at last has realised the mis-
take mado earlier in the war. and
therefore ought to have been dealt
with first. The Germans can repair
their initial error only by bringing
Russia to a decisive battle, but Rus-
sia has a thousand miles of manoeuv-
ring ground before vital parts of the
nation can be reached. Therefore.
Germany has a hopeless task in
attempting to force the hands of
Grand Duke Nicholas.
“Lemberg really is very secondary
mutter both from the German -and
Russian points of view. The Russians
will not accept battle until the Ger-
mans commit some fatal error. but
will continue the policy of wearing
down the Germans. until the time
comes for a general move by all the
Allied armies."

DUNKIRK, F'rance, June 24.-Thir-
ty-six tons of explosives and metal
were fired into Dunkirk yesterday
from German positions somewhere be-
hind Dlxmude. Several civilians were
killed or wounded and considerable
material damage was done but not a.
shell reached a point of military im-
portance.
The impression on the inhabitants
differed in no way from preceding
hombardments. The first shell struck
the city at dawn, others followed uu-
til after 6 in the evening, coming
without warning. Though Dunkirk
hears the guns of the Allies along the
C.
Belgian front no sound comes from
the monster weapon that hurls those
16-inch shells from a spot more than
twenty miles distant.
Scarcely had the smoke of the first
shell lifted when notices reading
“Refuge in case of alarm" appeared
on buildings having cellars safe from
shell-fire. Many people hurried to
these shelters, while more went in
the direction of the explosions to aid
the victims. Whenever one of these
missiles fell the work of the rescuers
was reduced to a minimum as destruc-
tion in the immediate vicinity was
nearly complete. The streets -were
no sooner strewn with debris than thc
work of clearing away began.
At intervals in this fifteen-hour
bombardment calm prevailed in the
city. There was little excitement and
no panic. When the fire was over the
streets resumed their ordinary aspect
and among the crowds street Arabs
swarmed about the stricken spots
hunting fragments of shells .to sell to
passers by. The electric current was
cut off’ in this city but gas could be
used. Persons who sought cellars
came out before morning to the sound
of cannonading from the Allies' front
that continued all night.
