The Russian Report.

Petrograd, Sept. 3.-The fortress of
Grodno has surrendered. Taougn this
last fortified position of the K0vno.
6restLitovsk line is in the hands of
the Germans today, the city of Grodno
is still held by the Russians. The re.
tirement of the main body of the fort.
ress garrison is being made in good or.
der to the right bank of the Niemen
river.
An official statement from the war
office today admitted the evacuation
OF the fortress. The withdrawal of the
the Slav garrison followed the capture
OF several of the outer defenses west
Of Grodno and the arrival of fresh Ger
man forces and guns, which made its
capture inevitable. The fortress was
held only to cover the withdrawal Of
the Slav forces retiring to the north
and east, and with this retreat accom-.
plisned further resistance was aban.
doned.
No booty fell into the hands of the
Germans, as the same tactics observed
at Warsaw were employed in the evac-
uation OF the fortress. All ammunition
and guns were removed and mounted
on the right bank of the Niemen. When
the Slavs evacuated the Germans were
prevented from crossing the river and
occupying the city. At Warsaw the
garrison first retired to Praga from
where they shelled the victorious Teu-
tons for several days.
The Russians lines are now being re-
formed east Of Grodno under cover OF
the Slav artillery holding the city. No
surprise was caused by the evacuation
Of the fortress after a siege Of only
three days.
The German forces which captured
Olita are now only three miles from
the Vilna.Grodno railway. Other Teu
tonic forcos are southeast of GrodnC
aud retirement from this dangerous sa
lent was imperative. 1t was officially
admitted today tnat the Russian forces
on the southeastern front may abandon
Galicia entirely. They are retiring to
new positions and with the occupation
OF the new line the territory conquered
carly in the war will probably be com
pletely abandoned
On the extreme north front where
The Germans are making a thrust al
wilma, the situation is declared to be
unchanged. About Frederchstal
neavy enemy forces nave been massed
desperate resistance is being Offered
there by the Slavs, who retain all theil
positions.
