Comprehensive details ns to the Polshevlk military organization, re ceived today In official cirelcH here, place the ration strength of the Soviet army on the Polish front at .'WO.OOO men. Thc strength of the Poles has been estlmnted nt 1-10,000. Soviet infantry divisions to thc num ber of twenty-six, thc official details assort, have been Identified ns facing the Polish nrmy In tho front line, with thirteen divisions In reserve. In addi tion, ten cavnlry divisons have boon noted in nctive operation nt thc front with two such divisions in reserve.

In nn in tercepted wireless dispatch sent re cently from Moscow by the Soviet gov ernment the report that Gc'nornl Brus iloff, former commander othe Hussion imperial armies against Germany, wns in command of the Soviet army, was characterized as "the mistaken, inten tionally perverted Idea spread by Eu ropean bourgeois agencies." The wireless dispatch added thnt "there Is not n single Germun officer in the whole of our nrmy.

"In some uunrtcrs there is specula tion as to whether the French step had any connection with the note of Secre tary of State Colby Jo Baron Avezznno, the Italian ambassador to thc I'nitcd States, on the Uusso-Polish situntion." In this connection the Daily Telegraph remnrks upon the rather belated nppeiir nnce of the Colby note nnd says it might have had a better chnnce of beinc ac cepted by Great Britain if it had come months nco. Tito newspaper says it shores the feelings of America toward dealing with the Bolshcviki, but it adds, "Tho I'nitcd Stntes Is on the far side of the Atlautic, unci while she can per Imps afford to ostracize Itussin. while I.enine nnd Trotzky contiol her des tinitics, Europe is kept quivering on the lack." Thc Dallv Chionicle, also comment ing on the Colby note, sajs: "In view of the obortiveness of America's at tendance upon the Versailles; con ference, this decision is of less weight than it would otherwise have been." The Daily News compares Italy's "progressive view" with America's 'attitude of nicely poised passivity," and expresses preference for the former. Paris, Aug. 12. (By A. P.) The recognition by France of the South Ilussian Government of General Wrangel, which Appears to have created something of a commotion in London, is commented .upon today by all the French iicwspnpcrs, the majority of which ex press surprise nt the statements Premier Moyd George made In tho House of Commons concerning) it. They tnke the view that the British premier Is not In a position to reproach France in connection with this Inltlntlvn by her, advance notice of which was given by Premier Mlllernnd In his speech of duly 20, ns they point out thnt Mr. Moyd George himself begnn negotiations with the Bolshevik! with out consulting Fiance, or the other Allies. The newspapers consider that thc French recognition of General Wrangel is n strictly logical continuation of the line of policy imblicly mapped out by the French Government. "The Crank" Is Taken to Norristown Jail Continued from I'nie ()n flint Pascjuale boasted in n cheap bar room thnt he was ploying a lone hand, thnt he did not hnve to divide the swng' with, any one, nnd I believe, much i 'to to do It, thnt Pastpiale mur dered the baby, and that he is now lying bcenufie the electric clfalr Is looming up before his eyes." Two automobiles were used In the search, with "Thc Crank" directing the searchers' efforts, hate Tuesday night Major Adams, Captain Sootier and two detectives drove through n rninstprm to Fg Ilnrbor to look over the ground, Then Bonder returned to tliis citv, un locked "The Crank's" cell and took Pasctuale back with him to Kgg Hnrbor. Hour after hour the two nutomobllcs plowed through the brush In plnces where an automobile never before had gone. Into mnlarln-lnfested swamps, where inscctR bit unmercifully, tho men pursued their senrch. Woodsmen were questioned. Every suspicious person wns questioned. All to no re sult. Finally, convinced thnt Pasqualc again had lied, the searching parties turned back, and at 0 o'clock cnine to n stop before Henry Foster's home, near thc Rending Hallway station at Kgg Harbor. The;i cnmc n dramatic sjecno. Mrs. Foster nnd nnothcr woman climbed up on the running board of the machine In which Pasqualc sat. "Do you have n mother?" Mrs. Fos ter shot the question nt tho sallow faced crlminnl. Mother Is Dead Bends of perspiration came out on the man's forehead. He tried to speak but he could only move his lips. Ho shook his head in negation. "Is she dead?" Mechanically Pasqualc nodded hii head. 1 "Do you ever expect to die your self?" came the next question from Mrs. Foster. Pnsquale managed to find his voice. "We must nil die borne time," the suspect muttered. "Then if you love your mother, if you hnve any pity for that poor mother In Norristown whose liaby you stole, if you ever have any hope of forgive ness 'for your sins, tell us then what you did with the baby," the woman continued. The suspect turned ashen under his snllowncss. He wet his lips with his tongue. "I no see. the bnby," he answered. " Moe.' he have the baby." "Don't pay any attention to what he says," a detective reminded Mrs. Foster. -"He's a liar, lie never told thc tru,th in his whole life." "I believe you killed the baby," Mrs. Foster concluded. "A little bit of nn Innocent bnby. Maybe it smiled as you crushed its life out." Pasquult said nothing but looked ahead with a fixed stare. Lynching Suggested By this time a crowd of men who had quit their day's work had gathered nrouud tho machine. They began to jeer. One mini exclaimed he bad seen Pasqunlc many times in Egg Hnibor. Several voices added their couflnnntion. "We ought to string him up right away." Minuted one man, n sentiment thnt won universal approval. But nt this juncture the driver of the motorcar appeared and drove the auto mobile down tho road and out of sight. Iho crowd then dispersed. A few min utes later the machine came back, picked up the rest of the detectives and swung down the highway bound for Philadel phia, whore Pasqualc was locked up last night in Central Station, where he re mained until tnken up stntc. While tho police believe they have ex hausted every endeavor and run down everj clue, they will keep pegging away at Pasqunlc In the hope he may let slip bomctliing to solve the mystery. Tnlo of Mysterious Baby One story upon which the detectives differ as to its value centers around the testimony of Frnnk Bergen, nn Egg Harbor florist. It was near Ills place that Pasqualc was captured. Bergen and his wife told detectives a foreign-looking couple, with two child ren and a baby, appeared at tho green house on the Sunduy before Pasqualc. was arrested.
