Petrograd, Oct. AFTER a weeks
hard fighting which eliminated before
Suwalki, where the main body of the
! German forces had strongly entrench-
ed themselves, the Germans, it is re-

Prussia again. This victory, if 1t is as
complete as reported, is of the great

will prevent the Germans from under
taking land and sea operations, which

at least part of its attention in this
