Owing to the war conditions

nearly every bridge, viaduct and
tunnel throughout the country is
guarded by our soldiers, who have
little or no chance to buy a daily
paper or reading matter of any
kind. If you will throw this pa

Kerensky's Government
Greatly Strengthened by
Big Military Reverses
By Associated Press
Washington, July 27.—The Rus
sian military reverses have enor
mously strengthened the hands of the
government in Petrograd, according
to a dispatch from Ambassador
Francis to-day to the State Depart
ment. They have shown the im
possibility of control of the army by
soldiers' committees, the ambassador
reports and have led to a universal
demand for stronger discipline.
The ambassador reported that the
military crisis at the front has caus
ed the deepest alarm in Petrograd
not only as to a severe military dis
aster but as to the achievements of
the revolution itself. All parties are
united, he said in urging the govern
ment to use any measures necessary
to meet the situation.
Bring In Old Leaders
Dispatches to the Russian em
bassy confirm this point of view and
show that many conservative lead
ers, who have recently gone out of
office, are now again coming to the
iront of affairs. They include such
men as the former president of the
Duma, Rodzianko; the former minis
ter of instruction, Ignatieff; Leader
i Plekhanoff of the Social Democratic
party; Professor Avksenteff, Socialist
| and Admiral Kolchak, of the Black
Sea fleat. This is interpreted to fore
cast a more representative and bet
ter experienced government.
At the same time arrests among
the Bolsheviki and the red guard are
continuing. Five more leaders were
taken into custody day before yes
terday, the dispatches say, and many
others .ire under surveillance. The
Council of Workmen's and Soldiers'
Delegates has issued different ap
peals to different sections of the
community, citing the danger of the
situation and supporting dictatorial
powers to make the results of the
revolution safe.
One Army Failed
Fears of food riots which original
ly precipitated the crisis In Petro
grad leading to the revolution have
been dispelled, the dispatches add,
by reports of splendid harvests from
all over Russia.
The Oalician military defeat was
further explained by mutiny in one
grenadier division of from 16,000 to
20,000 men which opened the front
to the Germans and allowed them
to drive in a wedge twenty miles
deep which necessitated the retire
ment of the whole of General Kornl
loff's forces of 300,000 men. The
Russian command rushed two other
divisions forward to attempt to
smash the wedge, but without suc
cess.
Heroic defense of a cavalry divi
sion alone held the Germans up a
few hours before Tarnopol, permit
ting the escape of the defending in
fantry and destruction of the muni
tion stores. The Germans, after tak
ing the city, then made desperate ef
forts to encircle the Seventh and
Eighth armies by a southern move
ment but are being checked by fresh
Russian troops. Meanwhile the Rus
sian advance in the Krevo-Smorgan
front is reported as continuing, with
three German regiments brought
down from the Vilna front annihi
lated.
Reports that negotiations are un
day way for sending American troops
to Russia are flatly contradicted here
where it is stated that Russia has
more men than she knows what to
do with.
America's great possibility for
good lies in sending munitions and
railroad materials to Russia.

Every Day Along the
French Front
Washington, D. C.. July 27.—Gov
ernment officials to-day, while not
attempting to minimize the serious
ness of the military and naval sit

fidence in the ability of the Allies
and of the United States to overcome
every obstacle, including the sub
marine campaign and the deadlock
on the western front. They pro

in the ability of Russia to recover
from her present distress and to re
turn to her task of beating back the
German army.
There was noticeable to-day a
greater frankness on the part of high
administration authorities to state
their views on the situation. It was
unreservedly declared by one that

stantly killed last night when he was
crushed between two street cars on

directly ahead. Two additional trol
ley cars arrived at the siding, which
necessitated moving the other ones
standing there. Before Colestock
could move his car he had to put
the trolley on the wire. While doing
this the other car backed, crushing
him between the two. He died while
being taken to the hospital.

AUSTRIAN WAR
CRUISERS SINK
BRITISH SHIPS
Forty-eight Small Boats Had
Little Chance Against
the Warships
By Associated Press
Ottawa, Ont., July 2 7.—An attack
by three Austrian cruisers on a line
of British drifters employed in
guarding antisubmarine nets in the
straits of Otranto on May 15 is de
scribed in a London dispatch to Reu
ter's Limited Ottawa Agency. The
account of the engagement says:
"The drifters in eight divisions
of about six boats each were formed
along a line running roughly east
and west. Each carried a crew of
ten men and one small gun. In one
case the enemy appears to have act
ed with chivalry toward the little
craft, signaling by means of blasts
of the siren and by dipping the flags
that the crews must abandon their
vessels. This cruiser approached to
within one hundred yards of the
Gowanlea and ordered her crew to
take to the boat.
Full Speed Ahead
"Skipper J. A. Watts, shipping the
nets, replied by ordering full speed
ahead and calling on the crew for
three cheers commanded them to
fight to a finish. They manned the
gun and fired with good effect until
a shot from the cruiser disabled the
gun. They hung on under heavy
fire, endeavoring to repair the dam
age, until the cruiser passed out of
range.
"The Gowanlea then proceeded to
the assistance of the badly damaged
Leodia, which had four killed and
three wounded and whose skipper,
though three times wounded, re
mained at his post throughout the
action. Meanwhile the remaining
cruisers had opened a devastating
fire on the center of the line.
"The crew of the Admirable only
abandoned their vessel after her
boiler exploded and her wheelhouse
had been shot away. Even then A.
Gordon, a second hand, scrambled
back on board with the evident in
tention of firing the gun single
handed, but was killed.
Stick to Ships
"The Girlrose, Cora T. Haven and
Selby were not abandoned by their
crews until they foundered under
them. The crew of the sinking Talts
on taking to the boats discovered
one of their number to be missing.
They returned to the vessel through
a heavy fire to search for their ship
mate. Second-hand Joseph Hendry,
of the Serena, remained on board
until the ship sank, rather than be
taken prisoner. He was picked up
an hour later. The crews of the
Garrlglll. Bonespolr, Christmas Day
and British Crown refused to leave
their vessels even when outranged
and under broadside fire from the
enemy and brought thern through
the action.
"The enemy displayed an anxiety
to destroy the wireless telegraph of
the drifter In each group. The wire
less operator of the Leondia was
found Jead in his chair at the con
clusion of the action, having col
lapsed over the wireless logs in
which he was writing at the moment
of his death."

The courts of domestic relations
have proved that more nappy mar

your girls to be good cookß and there

is the way of the "eternal masculine."
