GERMAN VICTORY
 IS INCOMPLETE Fighting Around Loo 2 Shows Russians Still Able
 to Stoutly Resist.

Berlin. Dec. II, by wireless to Say vile, l.. 1.-The latest report of the fighting around LodZ shows that the Russian resistance there is by no means broken.
 The new Russian positions on tie Miadza are only some 12 or 15 miles eastward from Lodz, demonstrating that much is yet to be done before the Russians can be considered defi- nitely defeated.
 In these circumstances, the battle in the vicinity of Lowicz gains added significance. If the Germans suc- ceed in breaking through here, the positions of the Russians behind the Miadza will be untenable.
 A German column advancing on the right bank of the Vistula stormed Przasnysz and captured 600 Russians and some machine guns. On the left bank of the river the attack is con- tinuing.
 The report from South Poland does not mention the place where tne allies attacks on the Russians have been resumed, but it is probable to the southward from Petrokow. These attacks serve the purpose of prevent ing the Russians from detachine forces to assist their armies in the north.

The governor made no mention as 10 when he will appoint new members Of the board, but it is generally believ- cd here the appointments will be an bounced tomorrow or Monday.
