In offering ibborn resistance to the German advance, the Russians are making a ?ontinual threat at von Mackenson's Hank along the Bug river from the cast of Chelin to east of Le?berg. Between* Krylow and Sokal thdlr st acks have been particularly severe. ??jinpeUing the Germans to send re uforcementH to meet them. Along the Vistula to the south and went of Warsaw there has been Ut ile change except for the occupation by the Germans of some positions ?varuatcd by the Ruaslana when they dTew In their line. While Warsaw U binder heavy pressure the Austro-Germans have i lot of stiff work before th"m be fore Its capture. After the crossing :he Narew they still have the broad er Bug. lined with fortresses, to face. Many are of the opinion that the otost dangerous Attacks at the mo ment are those which are being made In the province of Courland. Kovno and Gronno, at the lines communications between Warsaw and the northern interior of Russia, riieno attacks are for the most part by cavalry and doubtless will be met in due time toy the concentration of Cossacks In the region. - The French report another jur rrss In the Yo?ge? at Hau-de-Sapt.
