, London, Aug. 90. 10 p. m.-There
are no signs yet of any slacken1ng or
the German pursuit OF the retiring
Russians and according to the off1clal
gress has been made in all sectors or
report issued in Berlin today, pro-
the eastern battle line except that in
northern Courland. where the armies
Of Grand Duke Nicholas are offering
a stubborn and effective resistance.
& Russian Resistance Broken
From the southeast of Kovno. where
the Germans claim to have broken the
Russian resistance and must there
fore be approaching Wilma along the
Niemen to Grono and thence south
eastward through the forest of Bic
loyiezh and along the borders of the
Prfpet River marshes, the Russians
are falling back to new positions
Speculation again is being indulged
In as to whether the Germans intend
to follow the RusSins further or
prepare positions from which they can
hold the Muscovites while the Teutons
attempt an offensive in the Balkans
or on the western line in France and
Belgium. Military observers here be-
lieve this question must be settled be-
rore many days have elapsed, arguing
that with the summer coming to an
end any ventures proposed for the
fall must soon commence to develop.
Thus far the Germans have made
no move toward a great offensive
in the west and the threatened Aus
trian attack against Serbia has con-
sisted mainly OF long distance artil-
lery engagements.
Artillery Active in West.
The artillery has been the chief
mode Of warfare on the western line.
The most activity has been displayed
here by the guns Of the allies, which
have been shelling virtually the en-
! tire German line. In addition the al
, lies have been using their air craft
In large squadrons to lombard Ger
man barracks and positions.
1t is being vaguely hinted here that
mid-Octoher has been chosen as the
time for the long proposed "big push
OF the allies but the point at which an
attack is to take place is not being
mentioned. The general public does
not expect q strong offensive move
ment as yet but in some circles there
would be no surprise should General
