Russians Give their Enemies
Another Reverse
INDICATIONS THAT GERMANS WILL INACCURATE A Fierce
WESTERN OFFENSIVE
ASSOCIATED Press)

London, Sept. J1.-Another success
on the South Galician front, resulting
in the capture of five thousand men
is announced by the Russians. Even
the Petrograd newspapers, admit
that the fighting in this section is not
of vital Importance, since the Ger
mans are still lowering along the min
or forts which form the last remain
ing defenses in the way of complete
control of the railroad system desired
by the invaders.
The Russians declare the initiative
in isolated engagements is gradual
ly passing into their hands. Near
the center of the line, Won Macken-
sen is still pushing his way vigorous
ly toward Pinsk. Near Grodno and
on the road to Kovno, strong often
sive movements have developed.
WARFARE LAGS IN THE WEST
Official reports don't show as much
activity on other fronts as in the
east. Sharp fighting is in progress
along the Austro-Italian front, but
there is no fresh news from the Vos-
ges or the Argonne, where the Ger
mans have launched heavy attacks.
