('lose Ruange. London, Feb. 7.-With the German and liussian emperors eye-witnesses the armies of itusisa and Germany are still contending for the positions that protect the Polish capital of War saw from the invaders. The ltissian eiilperor has been at ulissian head quarters for several days and the Ger artua report announces that the Ger nian ein1peror has joined his generals and has actiually visited troops iii the trenches. Nothing has been disclosed as to the progress of the battle, which, when last reports were received, was raging with unabated fury. The Russians, according to Satur day's ollicial statement, had strength ened their positions on the western bank of the D3zura, which they cross ed near its mouth, and captured another German vantage point. They also captured a long line of German (trenches near i3orjifow, which had been the centre of most desperate fighting. In East Prussia another big battle Is developing, the Germans having sent reinforcenents apparently from their Ilzura front to that region. In the Carpathians, while their right is advancing, the Iussians are able only to report that their left has checked the Austro-German offensive. With regard to all this fighting the German ollicial report simply says: "No essential events have taken pl-ace." Fighting in the west is a repetit-lon of that of the preceding days. There have been lively artillery duels and a few infan'try. attacks in which both sides claim to have gained some ground. No further fighting -in Eyypt is reported. The Turkish account of that which already has occurred there refers to it as an encounter of van guarsd and adds that the battles are still in progress. This probably is a delayed announcement. The Italian report of the return of Baron Dlurian, the Austro-l-Huna rian foreign minister, from his visit to the German emperor says the Aus trian cabinet found the results satis factory but were not inclined to give Trentino to Intaly and part of Tran rylvania to Roiumania as the price of (on1ined neultralty on the part. of thiose coun tries. ~iTurkey has1 givenl Italy satisfact Ion for tile lIodelida 1icit.
