Russia Claims Partial Success.
Petrograd, Nov. 22.-The follow
ing official report from general head
quarters was issued tonight:
'The fighting between the Vistula
and the Wartha continues with great
persistence. We have obtained some
partial successes.
"The fighting on the front of Cen
stochowa-Cracow has resulted in no
essential change. We have taken
1000 prisoners and some machine
guns.
I'm Galicia the Austrians have
evacuated Novy-Sandez under the
pressure of our troops" =
The German column between the
Wartha and Vistula rivers, according
to to-day's official reports, comprises
six army corps and presents a front
of 55 miles. The two rivers prevent
thanking by either side, hence the
fighting consists of straight frontal
attack.
The Germans, military observers
contend, cannot advance further since
the Russian concentration, delayed
by bad roads and lack of railroads,
now is complete.

cruise near the German waters, say

cisive action in the North Sea. Prince
