Reinforcing Their Line
London, 10:22 a. m.—While the vir

the allies and Germany in the west

The fall of the Austrian fortress of
Jaroslau virtually completes the in

overrunning Galicia and pushing the
armies of Austria back to the ridge
of the Carpathians.
By her conquests in Galicia, Rus
sia now controls the greatest supply
of gasoline in Europe. The product
is of utmost importance to Russia be
cause of her necessity for motor
transportation.
The Russian movement is now de
scribed as a huge wedge, the right
line of which extends roughly from
J.ibau, on the Baltic, along the rail
road line to Warsaw. The Russian
general, Rennenkampf, Is guarding
this line. It protects the Russian
sources of supply and prevents any
outflanking movement against the
Russian army attack, which, already,
according to news in London, Is be
ginning to operate In the direction of
Posen and Breslau, In Germany. The
left of this line rests on Warsaw, from
which point railroads tap the rich
and populous district extending to
Odessa. The occupation of Galicia
links up the Warsaw railroad system
and Is regarded in Ixtndon as insur
ing both supplies and reinforcements
for the attacking army.
Stage Nearly Set.
That the stage is nearly set for this
attack is indicated by the news that
the Germans are, hastily reinforcing
their line between Thorn and Kallsz,
southeast of Posen, even to the sx
tent of abandoning their positions
against General Rennenkampf. Not
only have the Russians cut off Aus
tria's domestic supply of gasoline,
but the ban on the exportation of coal
to Austria may be followed, it is held
here by a similar measure with re
gard to gasoline. Tills would vir
tually deprive Austria and her ally
of this very necessary product for
their automobile transport and aerial
service.
Absolute Command.
With all the necessary motor trans
ports, together with absolute com
mand of her few railroads which are
no longer threatened hy Invaders,
English observers expect Russia to
continue to move with that rapidity
which haa In the past amazed mil
itary experts. It had been predicted
that on account of her lack of rail
road facilities, Russia would take six
months to get as many men into the
field as she has already stationed
along the line of this great wedge in
two months time.
Combined Montenegrin and Servian
forces are said today to be in occupa
tion of the entire southeast section of
Bosnia and Herzegovina.
No official confirmation has been
received from Russian sources of the
report that a Russian cruiser has de
stroyed a German cruiser and two
torpedo boats in the Baltic.
In Belgium defenders and Invaders
hold their relative positions witnout
change but many reports are being
transmitted that the Germans are fev
erishly entrenching along their line
of communications.

ON CREDITS
States That If National Banks
Refuse Tennessee Amount
Required, He Will Himself

Washington—ln connection with the
alleged refusal of National banks to
extend credits. Secretary McAdoo to
day issued till* statement:
"Senator Dea, of Tennessee, informs
me that the state of Tennessee has

ing October Ist, that tke state de
sires to renew or extend $1,400,000 of
these notes; that a commission repre
senting the state lias been in New
York for some time trying to effect
this loan but without success.
"It Is preposterous that one of the
great states of the Union should find
it Impossible to procure from the
hanks such a comparatively small
amount of money. Senator Dea In
forms me that he was going to New
York last night for the purpose of
Joining the commission in Its efforts
to secure tne needed loan.
"if Senator Dea and his associates
are unable to procure from hanks in
the city of New Vork or elsewhere
today, and upon reasonable terms, the
desired loan, 1 will myself see If the
