After capturing Giby, eight miles ii id>- the herder and 21 miles from the pre-war boundary of east Pruss a. the Russians cut the LazdijaiAugustow highway and pushed on nearly two miles farther. Suwalki, capital of the triangular province o{ the same name, lies 15 miles east oi Giby. Further -penetration of the disputed triangle would bring the Russians into the Mansurian lake region, which saw fighting on a tremendous scale in, the last war. The 3rd army's drive, however, appeared to be directed along the railway running west from Alytus through a corridor between Mar-
south of Jelgava anil 30 miles south■vest of Riga, also fell to the Rus-
sians.
