RUSSIANS POUND
GERMANS AT RIGA
Intensity of Great Battle
Increases, but Neither
Line Is Pressed

London, Jan. 12.-The battle on the
Riga front shows no sign OF absting
but rather is increasing in intensity
The Russians continued their fierce at
tacks yesterday on both sides Of the
Riga-Mitau road, along the Dvina and
south Of Dvinsk, where the railroad to
wilma is being hammered necessarily.
None of these assaults succeeded in
piercing the German lines. The Ger
mans, in turn, were hurled back in at
tempts to smash the Russian defences
east of the village Of Kalnzem. The
losses on both sides were severe.
The Cars troops are making good
progress through the fourmile-wide
forest west Of the River Aa, where
there has not been a moments relaxa-
ton in the fighting. At the present
rate the Russians may reach the i'm
portant railroad centre and German
base of Mitsu very quickly, being not
more than fourteen miles distant now.
Through Mitau passes the railroad
which serves the whole German front
from the Dvina to Jacobstadt. and its
capture would be heavy blow for the
enemy.
II is known that the famous Bulga-
rian general Randko Dostreif is per-
sonally in command of the operations
on this front, which are steadily as
Stunning proportions of great magnitude.
An attempted German attack south Of
Zubilno, between Vladimir-Volynski

The morning papers are unanimous
in their approval of the reply OF the
Allies TO Presiden, Wilson's note, the
only difference being in the terms Of

Either the Allies objects will be
fully attained or Germany Will be a
