EVEN POSSIBLE EVACUATION

OF PETROGRAD ITSELF ISLOOKED FOR SHORTLY, WASH-

INGTON ASSERTS.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.Washington, D- - C, Sept. 3. Aban-

donment of Riga in the face of thenew German drive into Russia, andeven the evacuation of Petrograd it-

self have been forecast as possibili-ties in confidential advices to theAmerican government during the lasttwo weeks. Such a development isnot regarded with so much alarm asmight be supposed- -

With Riga abandoned the Germanoccupation of Petrograd in prospect,the seat of the Russian provisionalgovernment will be moved to Moscow- -

Much as they may regret seeing theRussian capital occupied by a Germanarmy, the forceful thinking men ofRussia working to set up a govern-ment, may regard it as a blessing indisguise.

There are many advantages in re-

moving the Russian capital to Mos-

cow. It is the center of the conser-vative group and commands the sen-

timental almost religious regardof the Russian populace as the an-cient capital of the old empire, sur-rounded with traditions of Russia'sgreatness, the triumphs of Alexan-der, Catherine and Peter the Great- -

Furthermore, some of the Russiansof the'"nvovernmeliir-wra3a-w- .

think that a German occupation ofRiga and even Petrograd might be awholesome lesson for the radical ele-

ment which has been hampering thenew government, and that an experi-ence under the military heel of Ger-

many might convince them of. theneed of supporting . the government,as now constituted, to save theirfatherland for the Russians.

As a military achievement, a cap-ture of Riga and Petrograd amountsto almost nothing. With support ofthe German fleet in the Baltic, a Ger-man army can take Riga almost with-out an effort. Between Riga andPetrograd are many miles of swampwastes, but admittedly the Germanarmy could traverse them, althoughnot easily.

Von Hindenburg has been creditedwith having declared he could takePetrograd any time he desired to doso, and having added that there waslittle military advantage to be gainedother than taking possession of theammunition factories.

Germans Had Fate of PortEffectually Sealed Sev-

NEXT POSSIBLE MOVEGERMANS DOUBTFUL

Possible Ultimate MilitaryConsequences Are Diffi-

cult to Estimate,

ASSOCIATED PRESS STTMMART.Riga, Russia's principal Baltic sea

- port, has been abandoned to themans under the threat of an offensive

' by land and sea in which theing stroke on the land side was de-

livered by the Germans last Satu-rday.The fate of Riga was virtually

sealed when German troops, powerfully initiating their offensive, forced -

a crossing of the Dvma southeast ofli?.!?the right bank of the stream

Menaced also by the attack of acolumn of Teutonic forces movingfrom Mitau southwest of Riga and bythe German naval forces recently reported hovering in the vicinity of theGulf of Riga, the Russian militaryauthorities evidently considered thecity no longer tenable and decided toevacuate it.

The possible ultimate military con-seauene- es

of this development are difficult to estimate. The right flank of j

the entire Russian western front wasanchored on the. Gulf of Riga at apoint to the west of the city and withthis anchorage lost, the possible stra-tegical developments of this situationseem infinite-Muc- h

depends on the purpose ofthe Germans and the size of theforces at their disy jsal for operationsin this war theatre- - It is too earlyyet for it to be made apparentwhether they will be content at pres-ent with occupation of the Baltic sea-

port, the Russians have left to them,rr ;f thf H"f g to be.. pushed,and an attempt made to .swing backthe entire Russian line on this front,creating another opening for opera-tion by land and water with Petro-grad as the objective- - Riga, capitalof the government of Livonia, had apopulation of more than five hundredthousand persons before the war. andaside from Petrograd, was the mostimportant Russian commercial and in-dzpt-

town having access to theDliltic.

It is situated at the southern ex-

tremity of the Gulf of Riga, a stretchof water 100 miles long and 60 mileswide, Riga lying at the point wherethe Dvina empties into the gulf. Theport is ice-bou- nd during virtually one-thi- rd

of the year. It had a very largeGerman population before the open-ing of hostilities, and it is interest-ing to note that it was rounded in1158 by German merchants as a storehouse, the city passing through thernntrol of various northern nationalities during the centuries until finally j

in 1721 it was incorporated witn ineRussian Empire. Its commercialstanding is indicated by the fact thatit was . the third seaport fo Russia,only Petrograd and Odessa exceedingit in importance- -

The Germans long have had theireyes upon Riga and at the close ofthe great campaign of 1913 whenPoland was overrun and large sec-

tions of Russian soil occupied by theTeutonic forces, an extraordinary ef-

fort was made by Field Marshal vonHindenburg to break the line of ttoDvina between Riga and Dvmsk. 110miles to the southeast. The Russiansat that time, however, were able tohold their grip on the line, beingaided by the advent of winter. Dur-

ing last year no serious offensive wasundertaken by the uerms on iunorthern front, their energies in theeastern war theatre being directedelsewhere in resisting the BrussilotToffensive and in the Rumanian cam-

paign.Ever since the Russian revolution,

with its disorganizing effect upon theRussian armies, made toie militarysituation more favorable to the Ger-

mans, there have been hints that adescent was to be made upon the Rus-

sian northern front and severalalarms have been sounded in Fetro-gra- d

that such an eventuality waspending.
