Another thousand prisoners had toen taken in the course of previous actions for possession of the river forda above these villages. In the northern theatre the Russians, with their bayonets, dislodged the Germans from Vileyka, after a series of saccesses in which they captured eight guns, including four howitzers; also nine artillery waggons and seven Mexime. The Russians then used the captured gans against the Germans, whom they put to flight. The Germana in the Dvinsk region continue their furious attacks, develop ing ↑ hurricane of artillery fire.
