Show DO GERMANS FALL London, Nov. 26, 1'51 a. m. A Petrograd Pet-rograd dispatch to the Morning Post says: "The Germans have commenced the evacuation of Mltau, their forward base in the Riga-Dvlna region, and are preparing to withdraw from the now hopeless task of capturing Riga and the Dvlna line. "Janopol, one of the points where the Germans had reached the Dvlna and whence they had made attempts to cross, has been captured by the Russians. A good deal of the fighting fight-ing which has occurred lately In the northern war theater has been directed di-rected toward securing a better line for the Germans' permanent winter fortifications. "The Russians continue to press on various poluts to prevent the realization reali-zation of this objective and the German Ger-man line as now constituted Is far from satisfactory for anything more than brief defensive operations, inasmuch inas-much as the Russians threaten the flanks of the various positions. "The Germans are concentrating a strong four-fold line of trenches in their rear, with a formidable series of wire entanglements extending scores of miles. In the extreme rear the Germans are busy completing field railways to the Interior of Germany." Ger-many." f on |
