Show OPERATIONS END ON RIGA FRONT Considered Too Late in Year to Advance on Road to Petrograd. COPENHAGEN, SepU 8. Leading German military circles consider that with the capture of the important naval nav-al bases of Riga and Duenamuend, operations op-erations on tho Riga front virtually havo been ended, says a Berlin dispatch dis-patch to tho National Tidende. It is considered too late in the year to advance ad-vance farther. This would require tha building of new roads and the establishment estab-lishment of depots. On this account, the dispatch says, it is unlikely that Field Marshal Von Hlndenburg will permit tho troops to continue tho advance ad-vance with Petrograd as the objective. |
