Eventually Augustus asked for an intervention by Russian forces, the confederates were defeated by the Saxons at the Battle of Kowalewo, and on November 3, 1716 a treaty between the King and the Polish nobility was signed in Warsaw.
Lõpuks nõudis August Vene vägede sekkumist, konföderaadid said saksidelt Kowalewo lahingus lüüa ja 3. novembril 1716 sõlmiti Varssavis leping kuninga ja Poola aadli vahel.
