However, because of the almost unlimited sup ply of troops at the command of the Russian General staff enabling them to throw a new division against the Poland invaders while they con tinue other advances. The decis ion reached in this conflict is most important, not only to Russia and Germany but also to Roumania. '' It is felt here that Roumania would join Russia should the Kaiser be again decisively defeated. The cen tre of the battle is now at Lodz where the Teutonic allies are being attack ed from three sides. Reports reach ing here tonight add mystery to the battle going on in Kalish. There are no Russian forces in the vicinity-but heavy firing of artillery and the in fantry has been going on for two days It is reported but unconfirmed that the Germans have engaged the Aus trian forces following the refusla of the latter to obey the German offi cers.

THE GERMANS ATTEMPT A DESPERATE ASSAULT. Paris, Nov. 21. Dispatches from the front tonight do not uphold the statement that "the day was exoeed ingly calm." These say that the Germans, under the cover of a blind ing snow storm, attempted, .one of their most desperate and determined assaults of ' the campaign around St., Miohiel and Verdun. Five times in solid ranks they charged the Frenoh trenohes. The Germans depended upon the snow to shield their inten tion . but the Frenoh had taken the precaution to place -outposts muoh further out than usual and these gave the main forces ample time to pre pare for the;Germans who were each time thrown baok.
