PETROGRAD, Nov. 25.- Via Lon- don, (8.15 p. in.)- Reports reaching here concerning the magnitude of the defeat of the Germans to the West of Lodz, Russian Poland, which in some instances place the German losses as high as an entire army corps, appear, in a measure, to be confirmed by tel- egraphic despatches from Warsaw. Forty-eight trains, have been despatch- _ed from Warsaw to bring in the.priso- tiers and wounded. This number of trains made up of the maximum number of cars ot' the Rus- sian wide gauge would curry be- tween 45,000 and 50,000 nleil, lt is cs- tltnated here.
