RUSSIAN OUTLOOK DISCOURAGING
Special to The Times By Associated Press.
LONDON, May 19—Little of real interest in
tin* war news was made public today. Nevertlie
less tin* situation of the Russian armies on tin* east
ern front is the cause of considerable pessimism
anions military observers and writers. The Rus
sinn official statement admits that its forces alonp
tin* river San have retired, and' that the movement is
" 1 " ™ ' ■ -
still progressing, so that the extent of the retirement
cannot he ascertained. The Russians have assumed
the offensive along the left hank of the Vistula riv
er, and there is a possibility that they may yet out
flank the Germans who are attacking Przemysl.
I he defeat administered to the Austrian forces in
Bukowina and Kastern Galicia may possibly he se
vere enough to prevent the complete success of the
wholesale offensive movement which the Teutons in
itiated along the eastern front. Nothing calculated
to bring joy to the British heart can be gleaned from
the Russian statement of the war, and the situation
on the whole presents a rather discouraging outlook,
considering the immense effort put forth by the
Russians in both men and money to gain the advan
tages which they have lost of late.
LONDON, May 19—England la de
tracted by the political upheaval the
country is undergoing, with the result
that the continuation of the present
government is the absorbing topic of
the hour. There seems to be hardly
any doubt now but that the difficulty
will be met by a coalition government.
LONDON, May 19—Premier As
quith addressed the House of Corn
, hnons today on the question of the
reconstruction of the government a
long non-partisan lines. He said
that steps had already been taken
contemplating and involving the re
construction of the government upon !
broader personal and political basis.
The remarks of the Premier were un
derstood to mean that a coalition cab
inet would be formed.
LONDON, May 19—Premier As
quith in his speech to the Commons
today said that the reconstruction of
the cabinet would in no way affect
the present government's policy of
continuing the war. All possible en
ergy in reconstruction is to be pur
sued to the end that the war may not
be affected by the change. The pur
pose of the coalition cabinet would
be solely for the better prosecution of
the war.

HYPNOTISM IS BEING USED TO
BID UP NERVOUS SYSTEM
LONDON, May 1!)—Hypnotism is being tried with good re
sults in the treatment of soldiers who have broken down under
the shock and strain of the battlefield.
The patient is seated in a chair and is brought under hyp
nosis in the ordinary way. He is told to acler his mind of all
other thoughts and' to concentrate on the single subject of his
cure. If, as often happens, his vision is affected by a “shell I
shock,” he is told quietly and firmly that the defect has been
cured and that he can once more see clearly. In some cases
a single sitting is enough, in others the treatment is repeated]
many times.
LONDON, May 1!)—Shipbuilding yards around the coast
of Great Britain are more and more engaged in warship con
struction and the output of mercantile vessels is thereby de
creasing. Last month only twelve vessels were launched' on
the Clyde as againsa fifteen last year.
Ten new boats are fitting out in the Glasgow district,
among them being the new Leyland liner Bostonian.
The East Coast yards are engaged on a number of small
coasting trade vessels, while the Irish yards are working over
time, mostly on government work. ,
At the Barrow works, of Messrs. Wickers, Ltd., an increas
ing number of girls have been employed in various departments
recently. An army of them now pass in and' out of the works
daily.
