wedge, dominated by LODI, being
thrust into the German center. If the
Germans can hold their lines of COM
munication with their wings intact.
they may be able to withdraw, in the
view of British observers, without suf'

Berlin and Vienna continue to re-
port that the battle along the rivers
Vistula and Warta is proceeding
ithout decisive result, although minor
successes attended with the capture
of prisoners and guns are claimed for
hte Austrian and German operation.
On the western front. according to
the communication given out in Paris
last night, lull prevailed except In
the Argonne. where the German at
lacks are said to have been fruitless.
Unofficial dispatches declare that Zee

Joffre at his headquarters. This is the
first time since the outbreak OF ths
war that the COMMUNICATIVE chief has
consented to see the press represent

tiers and what he saw there the Havas
correspondent says:
"The office from which the general
directs operations is in a public school
in a small quiet town. There is no
undue stir or hustle in the little streets
and a stranger would never suspect
the presence in this modest place OF
the head of the allied armies.
General Joffre's private office is on
the first floor Of the building. The cor :
respondents were at once shown up
and as they entered the general rose
from his desk and stood in the middle
of the room. He was in undress uni
form with top boots and tunic, but
wore no decorations.
HE was just as all Frenchmen pic

character of the man in every line,

goodness, gentleness and firmness.

London, Nov. 80, 11.S0 A. M.-Refer-
ences to the Russian successes in
North Poland have become somewhat
chastened since the cautionary report
issued by Grand Duke Nicholas, COM
mander of the Russian forces in the
field was made public. Nevertheless
the military critics in the capitals of
the allies, according to dispatches
reaching London, remain convinced
that the German invasion of Russian
Poland has suffered a check which
only the most strenuous efforts of the
German commanders can save from
degenerating into disaster.
A ,.ews report from Petrograd sets
forth that the Germans, apparently
ignorant TO the extent of the Russian
opposition along the Vistula or hold
ing this opposition in contempt, threw
heavy forces against the Russian
center, leaving very thin lines of
communication between their wings.
This created a situation said to be
without precedent in the history of
military strategy. T.

The comsission, which is composed Of
Seth Low of New York; Charles w.

with the present differences between
the operators and miners but will at
tempt to settle similar disputes in the

agreement between the operators and
miners, it is announced. will be con-

he suggested sometime ago, contem-

principal objection being to COM
