RUSSIANS, IN REBELLION, QUIT TARN0P0L AND FOUR VILLAGES LOYAL TROOPS WIN IN NORTH Kerensky Faces Greatest Military and In ternal Crisis Extremists From Within and Germans From Without Threaten Republic Russia is passing through another internal and military crisis. While extremists, German spies and agents of the old, reactionary regime are still seeking to fan a revolt against the provisional government as now constituted, the Germans on the southern front are advancing uninterruptedly in the region of the Sereth and Tarnopol. Tarnopol has fallen and the Russians are retreating eastward. All the gains made by General Brussiloff in his offensive last summer are threatened and, unless the German counter-offensive is stopped, the'entire territory held by the Russians in Galicia and the triangle embraced within ,the fortresses of Lutsk, Rovno and Dubno are in peril. The serious Russian setback is caused by the refusal of the troops on the Galician front to advance. According to Petrograd and Washington dispatches, discipline and organization have broken down entirely. Premier and War Min ister Kerensky is rushing back to the front in the hope of stemming the retreat and once more inducing his troops to attack. One encouraging feature in the military situation is reported from the Smorgon front, in the north. There, in the neighborhood of Krevo, in the Vilna sector, Russian troops have penetrated the German lines on a front two miles long and have taken 1000 prisoners. Another bright light in the situation is that despite the disaffection in many regiments, many of the troops are loyal and ready to defend the revolution at all costs. Petrograd itself is calm. All rioting has been ended and the Council ot Workmen and Soldiers has passed a resolution, ordering the government to suppress insurrection at all costs and restore discipline.

Russia's army on the southwest front Is "In a state of complete disorganization," with mutinous soldiers threatening to shoot those who oppose them and Jong lines of deserters straggling to the rear. The mo rale of the fighters Is gone. It was this grae message received by the Government's executive committee from the southwest front and. Just made public here today that sent Premier and Minister of War Kerensky there. "A fatal crisis has occurred In the morale of the troops," the telegram declared. "Most military units are In a state of com niete disorganization.

Russian forces today succeeded In achiev ing a signal success oer Teutonic troops In the neighborhood of Krevo, In the Vllna sector, according to today's official report. The report follows: We occupied part of the enemy positions at Tsary Boguslle, penetrating to a depth of two miles at one place and taking a thou sand prisoners. Our success was Jeopar dized by Instability of certain detach ments. Between the Sereth, the Strypa and the Zlota Llpa Rhers the enemy occupied Nas tasor, Blenlava, Uvse and Slavlntln. Krevno, near Vilna, lies nearly 350 miles to the north of Tarnopol and Brzezany, around which the mutinous outbreak of the Russians first centered. The sector between the Sereth, Strypa and Zlota Llpa Rhers lies between Breze- zany and Tarnopol. LONDON. July 23. Peril faces the Russian armies on the whole southern front because of the utter demoralization of the troops fleeing before the German offensive In eastern Galicia. The Russians have given up the city of Tarnopol, which la In flames, while to the south another Russian army "Is beginning to Scattered and broken, the troops have fled across the River Sereth, burning the bridges behind them. The German and Austrian pursuers have reached the right bank of the Sereth, with only a mob to con test the crossings. This tremendous reverse has been caused solely by the instability of the Russian troops,' worked upon by the pro-German ex hortations of the Maximalists, the Russian radicals. "Our troops have shown complete dis obedience toward their commanders and are continuing their retreat," says the of flclal statement from Petrograd. 'Our re treat was almost uninterrupted."

In which he directly charged that the Governor made misstatements In con nection with the work of the Economy and Efficiency Commission, is looked upon as an Indication that he has finally broken with Brumbaugh after years of intimate asso ciation. So close was McDevItt to Brumbaugh that he accompanied him all over the State during his pre-election speech-making tour, and up almost to the day of his Inaugura tion it was' generally belleed McDevItt would be his private secretary. Four years of close study of every department on Capitol, Hill, as head of the Economy and Efficiency Commission, 'has given McDevItt a wealth of material that would be useful to Auditor General Snyder in the course he proposes to take with the Governor. McDevltt's statement was the talk of Capitol Hill today and Is generally con ceded to be a fair reply to the Governor's charge that the Economy and Efficiency Commission had "done nothing" since Its FEDERATION OF LABOR MOVES AGAINST SPIES NEW YORK, July 23.
