Stubborn Russian Resistance Restrains Reinforced Germans.
Although the Germans are using very strong reinforcements of men and guns, they have not yet succeeded in breaking the Russian resistance either around Warsaw or in Kovno and the Courtland provinces in each of which sections heavy fighting has been in progress for nearly a fortnight. Except for the capture of Goworwo, on the Narew front, and a number of prisoners and machine guns at that point and between Mitau and the Nieman, the German official report issued Wednesday does not claim any evidence. In fact, General von Buelow in the north and Field Marshal von Hindenburg, who crossed the Narew at some points, are being held 'by the Russian counter attacks which, although costly to the Russians, shows that there is plenty of fight left in them.
