South of the Pripet marshes the Russian advance was con-

tinued last week, and on September 23rd the important town of Luck was reoccupied by theme Subsequent reports upon these operations coming from Vienna suggest that our allies have had a set-bank in this region and may not have been able to maintain their gains. The official Petrograd report on Thursday morning, however, mentions a successful Russian offensive on the extreme south of the line, near Tarnopol. It will be seen from this summary that, even before the offensive was resumed in the West, the Germans had their hands full enough in the Polish theatre.
