CRUSHING THE ENEMY. TETROGRAD, Sept. 26. A communique says the position on the Dvinsk front is quieter. Many attacks near Vileyka were repulsed. We carried with the bayonet the fortified village of Ostroff north-westward of "Vileyka-Udvileyka and crushed the enemy's desperate resistance near Podlugie eastward of Novogrodek. We captured six hundred German machine guns and two supply columns of artillery ammunition and munitions. We captured the village of Podlugie further south and drove the Germans back across the Strumane.
