In Galicia the Russians have at last compelled the stubborn
Bothmer to fall back westward. General Letchitaky, on the 10th, occupied Stanislau and pressed forward on both sides of the Dniester towards Halicz, thus threatening Bothmer's right flank. General Sakharoff, moving south-westward from Brody towards the main Odessa-Tarnopol-Lemberg railway and the upper course of the Bug, was threatening Bothmer's left. Bothmer then fell back, slowly and apparently in good order, from the Strypa to the Zlota Lipa. He was vigorously pursued by General Shcherbacheff, whose troops succeeded in crossing the ravine in which the Zlota Lipa flows, at several places under heavy fire. The salient held by Bothmer is thus being straightened out from Brody to the neigh- bourhood of Haliez. On the extreme south of their line the Russians have occupied Jablonica and other points very near the crest of the Carpathians.
