'lDRY" BILL LOSES
IN LOWER HOUSE
1877 For, 1873 Against Na-
tiOnaI Prohibition

Representative Hobson's resolution
proposing nationwide prohibit n
through an amendment to the fed
eral constitution was defeated in the
house.
The vote was 1877 for and 1S9
against the resolution, one member
voting present.
1t required a two-thirds vote of the
present membership of the house, or
2SS, to pass the resolution. The drys,
therefore, fell 81 votes short in their
remarkable fight to bring about a ma
tion-wide drought.
They were disappointed also IN fail
ing to obtain a majority of the house
in favor of the resolution. for they
had banked on this to give impetus to
their struggle in the future for legis
lation of this kind. A majority OF the
present house is 217. so that the pro
hibition advocates fell just 20 votes
shy.
The first amendment voted on was
offered by Representative Mann, OF
Illinois. This amendment provided
that the constitutional amendment
should be submitted to the states in.
stead of to the legislatures, as was
proposed in the Hobson measures.
This was beaten, 21O to 116.
An amendment by Representative
Morrison, Democrat, of Indiana, pro
posed to strike out the Hobson reso
luton and substitute for it one pro
hibiting the importation of liquor into
any state. This was defeated, 313 to
Al.
Representative Adamson, of Geor
gia, Democrat. proposed an amend
ment giving the states the exclusive
right to enforce the provisions of the
proposed Hobson resolution. The Hob.
son measure gave the federal govern
ment the right to act concurrently
with the states. This was defeate

KAISER RETREATS

FIERCE FIGHTING IN EAST
Invaders Fall Back into East Prussia
and Cars Troops Hold Region
Above Vistula.

Russia's hosts, after the checI
caused by the determined advance o
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg, II
command of the German forces, ar
moving forward again, and the kais
er's armies, in the region nOrthwes
Of Warsaw, are imperilleI by the new
Muscoyite attack.
The German army that invaded
north Poland, by way Of Mlawa, has
been repulsed, according to the wal
Office, and has been driven back int
east Prussia, where it holds line
twenty-five miles long, between Nei
denDurg and Lautenburg.
The once triumphant army Of Ger
mans, which held the north bank OF
the Vistula and planned an attack on
Warsaw from the north has entirely
lost control in this region.
The heavy German column which
has been driven across the east Prus
sian frontier is spreading out to the
east and west, according to reports
from the front
The purpose of the German move
ment is to debouch to the right OF
the entrenched Mazur lake position
and to reinforce the troops in the vi
cinity OF Thorn, for protection against
the continued Russian advance on the
Observation-Disclosures railroad,
which is the main strategic line par
aleling the north Poland frontier.
The Russian success north of the
Vistula is not the only one they have
scored. They have taken the offensive
west of Warsaw and have driven the
Germans back over the Bzura river.
Once more they have Strengthened
their line, and despite hard counter
attacks by the Germans are slowly
but surely rolling back the kaiseTs
legiOns.
Almost daily for three weeks there
has been terrific fighting along the
Bzura river from Kamlon. where it
flows into the Vistula, southwestwari
to Lowicz. The fighting has been no
less fierce along the Bzura's tribu-
taries, the Utrata, Rawka, Pisia and
rivers. There have been
occasional lulls in the fighting, but
these have been only brief.
For seYenty-two hours Russians and
Germans fought a hand-to-hand battle
for the possession of the ruins Of
between the Utrata and the
Pisia rivers. This was a fourishing
little town until the Germans made
heir first attempt to take Warsaw.
Since then it has been captured and
six times. It has been en-
.irely wrecked by the shells of the
opposing armies.
The great battle Of western Galicia
nay row be said to have begun. Con. /
acts are reported along the line from
Jracow to the Dunajec river and as
ar east as Przemysl. The garrison OF
hat fortress has made a determined |
lttempt to break a way out westward /

NEW YORK, August 1S.-The west

ping in the area as far south as Trini-
dad, according to announcement made
by Admiral Sir Christopher Cradock Of
the British cruiser Suffolk, through
the British consulate here. The Suf-
folk is now not far from New York
city.
The consul went on to say that there
were five British warships in the west
ern Atlantic and that their patrol was
so effective that all British shipping
interests had been assured that there
was little danger from German craft.
This information was brought from
Admiral Cradock by the captain of the
steamship New York City, which the
Suffolk halted outside of New York.
The report from Admiral Cradock is
most reassuring," said r. l.. Nosworthy,
acting British consul general, and /
have notified the steamship lines that
the ocean is now clear of German
cruisers. As the message from Ad-
miral Cradock involves the movement
of the fleet and plans of the admiralty,
I cannot make 1t public" The five
cruisers are the Suffolk, Admiral
Cradock's flagship: the Lancaster. the
Berwick. the Bristol and the Essex.
