RUSSIA'S TASK.
PEOPLE HOPEFUL. 'V (Times and Sydney Sun Services.) London, Oct. 8. Tlie Times' correspondent at Petrograd says that welcome evidence is accumulating of the gradual change on our front owing to the steady technical improvement in the Russian armies. Thanks to their artillery, the AustroGermaus have hitherto easily advanced; now our artillery is meeting them on equal terms. Prisoners state that the Germans in the Vilna region have suffered colossal losses. The scarcity of clothing and footgear is so great that the dead are invariably stripped. The cavalry is in a pitiable condition. The martial, spirit of the men has appreciably declined, and tliei. confidence in victory is disappearing.
