1 RUSSIANS OPEN TERRIFIC
ATTACKS ON FOUR VITAL
SECTORS ALONG EAST LINE
LONDON, July 20. Tho Russians have
opened a powerful offensive thrust on tho
eastern front In the Carpathians, toward
Kovel, at Vladimir Volynskl and In tho
RJga sector, says a wireless dispatch from
Rome. It adds that a big battlo Is de-
vcloplng at Jablonltza.
Tho Russian forco that crossed tho Car
pathians and invaded Hungary was a cav
alry detachment, according to 1'otrograu
dispatches today. There Is no Indication
thus far that tho Czar'B Infantry has pene
trated Hungary.
The Slav horsemen passed through a de
file near Kirllbaba and turned westward
toward tho right flank of tho Austrian
army, presumably to ratd tho Austrian
lines of communication.
General Lochltzky'a army; Is advancing
from the direction of Kuty, ion the Tchere
mosche River, which form the boundary
between Gallcla and tho Kukowlna Tho
direction of the Russian inarch Is south
westerly, following the rtfver up to Its
source In the Carpathians. The Tcheremosche
is made up of two branches, the Black and
tho "White Tcheremosche. which Join and
form one river about lit miles southwest
of Kuty. It is In this region, according to
the official Russian statement, that tho
.Russian Infantry Is ndranclnsr toward tho
'mountain defiles. Preas dispatches from
Berlin qfyl Fetrograd assert that not only
In this region, but at other points on each
side of It, Russian forcej are moving toward
tho mountain barrier.
This indicates that the Russians are ad
vancing toward tho Carpathian mountain
Without long delay. '
A dispatch from Berlin Bays that re
ports from tho southeastern front Indicate
that the Russians, utter a fortnight of
comparative Inactivity, have brought up
heavy reinforcements of Infantry and cav
alry and- have resumed a. strong aggressive
on the headwaters of the Moldava near
Kirllbaba, on the Hungarian frontier.
A change In tjie weather has facilitated
the operations, after clear hot weather, in
which It was Impossible to conceal the
movements of troops for sudden attacks
in great force. The Russians are showing
the utmost tenacity, and their artillery Is
playing an Imrjortant role In the opera
tions. Tho Austrian mountain batteries, how
ever, have achieved splendid results against
It, the dlspateh says. Tho Russians pre
pare only hnsty field positions, believing
that the Austrian resistance con soon be
broken, but, 'tho reports Bay, tho Austrian
infantry is withstanding all the attacks,
and tho ground in front of the trenches Is
filled with Russian dead.
MEXICAN MEDIATION TLAN
WAITS ONLY CARRANZA 0. K.
Washington Virtually Concludes Ar
rangements tor Diplomatic Con
ference WASHINGTON, July JO. Approval by
Mexico City authorities of tho tentative pro
gram outlined by Acting Secretary of State
Polk and Ambassador Designate Arrcdondo
Is virtually tho only obstaclo In the way of
an announcement of tho plans for tho direct
negotiations to settle American differences
with the de facto Government of Mexico.
Thess preliminary arrangements had
been delayed until some Idea of tho strength
of tho Insurgent movement In northern
Mexico could be gained. Ofllclals here aro
convinced that there Is not a forco of
revolutionists and Vllletnn there so large
that It will menace the American border
through tho Inability of General Trevlno's
army to cope with It. Unless some Inci
dent occurs within tho next week to cause
the Stato Department to change Its views
on this subject. It la confidently expected
that announcement of the program for tho
proposed direct negotiations will bo made.
With tho exccr.lon of the possible menaco
to tho border by bandits, no rent dlfllculty
has been encountered In arranging the ne
gotiations. Withdrawal of the American
column and protection of tho border will
be tho first points of Issue. Next In Im
portance will be the secret consideration of
plans for the financial rehabilitation of
Mexico, with tho probable unofficial back
ing of private bankers by tho American
Government

WASHINGTON, July 20. Guardsmen

dependents at homo will bo replaced by re
cruits now being obtained by National
Guard ofllcers kept at home for that pur
pose. This, tho war Department saw 10
day, will meet tho situation created by tha
necessity of releasing thousands.
There will be no serious gaps on the bor
der. It was asserted. Even if the regiments
there fall below their minimum, they will
not bo mustered out, since It Is expected
tho ranks soon will be refilled. Informally,
too, army officers hero maintainthere Is lit
tle likelihood of trouble with Mexico and
say several thousand guardsrrien could be
spared,
"As for the hardships Inflicted on guards
mon, wo can feel little sympathy with men
who enlisted in an organization that may
have to go to war without anticipating the
possibility of tragedy," said one official.
"Every man on the border who has depend
ents will bo mustered out of sen-Ice, how
ever. "We will not see nny one suffer."

They promised to tako us all to bco tho

wo arrived too early and were side-tracked
outside of the city seven miles, so wo had
to givo up the Idea.
Wo stopped at KanBas City, Kan. ; To

There la good grass down toward Texas.
Then wo get le sago brush cactus nnd Cot

There Is no water except what comes out

Wo worked until about 11 o'clock last
night. Then wo turned In, Just about dead

Tho only tilings that can be raised In
this part of the country nre horned toads,
rattlesnakes nnd bugs of all descriptions.
Wo hnd nn nlnrm laBt night, but It turned
out to bo a Joke. Ono of tho fellows cnuglit
and killed a rattlcsnako about three feet
long. Tho crowd got together and visited
tents with It where other fellows were
sleeping They put Mr. Snake nenr or on
the fellow nnd awoke htm Usually this
brought forth n yell that would wnken the
dead. It was fun for nil but tho sleeper.
Tho fellows are catchlrg horned toads and
drying them, so If you want one wq will
catch one for you. They look like a fat
lizard with horns.
A young Jack rabbit ran Into camp and
wo chased It behind a pllo of boxes. I cap
tured It. It was about as big as a kitten
and nearly scared to death. Soma of tho
fellow h wanted to kilt It or keop,lt In -amo
fur a mascot. As I had caught It, I had
a right to do what I wanted with It And
I decided to let It go. I took It to tho edge
of tho camp and turned It loose. The llttla
fellow Just aklmmed the c-tth to the brush.
An on fellow pult It, 'TV don't make war

It Is supposed to bo cool today. It's 103

I.i blowing, you really don't mind It unless
you nro working hard and In the sun.
Mttchoner Frey Is having the tlmo of his
