sources, he will draw his conclusions.
1t is believed from what is known that Secretary
Lane has welldefned program for work the river

ington it is expected that this will be disclosed
Congressman Kettner has before Congress bill to
appropriate 100000 for immediate control of the river
and it is believed Secretary Lane will approve this BILL
and that the appropriation will be used this winter in the
reconstruction of works at Volcano lake, with view to

But aside from this, it is expected there will be
appropriation of s2OO0OOO to s30O00O0 for extensive
works Immediately along the river to confne the water
to the old channel and put the valley beyond all danger
of repetons of the the Volcano Lake evee then
furnishing secondary protection
1t is known that there is strong influence working
for this protective work in Los Angeles, and there
be unanmity in the belief that this should be done
that it is certain the people to own the canal
system.
The directors of the Irrigation District will meet
Monday select representatives to attend the conference
in Washington when it is expected active steps will be
started to support for the protective program
throughout the country.

German Disaster
In Poland Is Great

Petrograd, Nov. 28,-It is officially
reported that the second drive by the
Germans on Warsaw has been
smashed. The Germans have been
driven back from the Bzura river and
the Russians have reached Combin.
Russian cavalry has forced the Ger
mans to retreat south of Bzura. The
situation between the Vistula and the
Warthe rivers is favorable to the Rus
slams. Russian troops are now but 35
miles east of Cracow.
1t is unofficially reported that 1O0,-
600 Germans under General Won Mac
kenzon have been surrounded and the
Germans are suffering heavy losses.
South of the Bzura river, the state
ment says, Russian cavalry has forced
the Germans to retreat between Brzez
my and Glowne.
The Russians have attacked the Ger
mans in the region of Sgierz and
Strykow. Crossing the Carpathians,
the Russians have captured the Ga
lician town of Bochnia.

knocked down the back of the Navy's
line and Navy man fell on it. This
counted as safety for the army. Score:
Army, 2; Navy, 0.
Second Mitchell fumbled a

the goal and Mitchell again fumbled

BRITAIN'S HOST is
RUSHING TO FRANCE

Paris, Nov. 28.-For three days
British reinforcements have been pour
ing into France. There is steady
stream of transports to Havre, dep
pc, Boulognc, Calais and Dunkirk.
Day and night the unloading of
ships goes forward and it is believed
the arrival of reinforcements is the
signal for general offensive move
ment. The exact number of men is
not known, but it is believed more
than million have arrived or are Oh
the way. Two hundred troop ships
came across the channel at one time,
guarded by a fleet: The chief diff
Guilty is in unloading and inability to
find sufficient berths for the trans
ports. The troops are mostly terri
torials and are anxious to get to the

Washington Expects Villa
To Maintain Good Order

Washington, Nov. 28.-The presence
of the troops of General Villa in Mex
leo City insures safety for residents,
administration officials declared to-
day.
No definite advices nave been re-
ceived, but previous dispatches said
that order is being maintained. With
Villas threat to shoot any soldiers
found looting, the Washington gov
ernment is convinced order will pre-
vail
Vera Cruz is expected to be the
scene of decisive fighting between the
Carranza and Villa forces.
Reports that convention troops have
occupied Tampico are expected
hourly.
Since General Caballero, military
governor of the State of Tamaulipas,
has repudiated Carranza, it is ex-
pected this port will be made the base
of attack on Vera Cruz.
The state department is awaiting re-
ports from Consul Silliman relative to
the killing of Spanish residents by
Zapatista troops, as reported by the
Spanish ambassador. Pending the ar
rival of such reports, it is understood
no action will be taken.
Washington, Nov. 2S.-Don Riano.
Spanish ambassador to the United
States, has called at the state depart
ment and protested against the killing
of Spanish citizens and the confisca-
tion of their property by the forces
Of the bandit chieftain, Zapata, at Mex
leo City.
In doing this Spain has initiated the
lead of Holland, which demanded pro-
lection for Dutch citizens and their
property in Tampico. Hollands rem
resentations were followed by those
of France and Russia.
The Spanish ambassador turned
over to the state department this ca
blegram from the Spanish minister of
foreign affairs in Madrid:
4 "Will you please call the attention
of the government of the United States
to the situation in the Mexican caps-
tai. In spite of the guarantees given
for the safety of the lives of Spanish
people in Mexico the forces of the Ia
patistas have killed Spanish people in
Mexico and confiscated their houses
and property"
Word of these murders of Spaniards
in Mexico City went to the Spanish
foreign office from Scnor Caro-, the
Spanish minister in Mexico.

Germans Reported Crushed.

PetrOgrad, Nov. 2S.-Double defeat
has been administered by the Russian
forces which are driving hard against
the German armies in Poland and
great new legions of the Cars re-
serves are being hurled into the IT,
tanic conflict to turn The defeat into
o debacle.
Not only has the army of General
Won Hindenberg been crushed and his
forces divided, but the army of Gen
eral Won Makensen, which was brought
up to the relief of Won Hindenberg,
also has been met and defeated. 4
Enormous bodies of Russians are
pressing forward to cut off the retreat
of Won Hindenberg's armies as a fin
isliing blow to the defeat of the in
vaders. This reserve strength has be-
como available for active operations
on Grand Duke Nicholas first battle
line through the victories won at Lodz
and LOwicz. By reason of the re-
lief of Warsaw, accomplished by these
signal triumphs, they are no longer
needed for defensive operations and
their first offensive effort, revealed
in unofficial dispatches from the front,
has been to take up the pursuit of the
Germans retrcating along the line
north Of Lowicz.
Their purpose will be to prevent this
detached body of Won Hiadenb arg's ar
mies-the center-from forming
junction with the left wing, which is
in retreat from Lodz.
The division Of th., German front
was accomplished by the driving of i
wedge into the Kaisar's line between
Plock and Lowicz, it is stated. The
German effort now is to combine these
forces. The Russian plan is to pre-
vent the union. The ,csult is the most
terrific and most stubbornly fought
running battle in the history of the
war; AS yet it is without decision.
The Germans are virtually surround
ed and destruction or surrender must
certainly be their fate unless this wiz
ard stratcgist of the Kaiser's forces
Imperial Valley press., 1914-11-28

can bring about miracle and sue
cessfully extricate his entrapped le-
gions.
The critical stage of the battle is
admitted negatively by the Russian
general staff, which has adopted a
policy of clam-like silence with re
srect to news of the developments of
the gigantic struggle.
The populace is clamoring for Off
cial news of the encounter on which
rests the success or failure of the SUI
preme effort of the two greatest com
manders the warning nations have
produced.
But the days quest for an official
word on the developments has been
fruitless.
"The battle is developing strongly
in favor of the Russian arms" is all
the attaches of the staff headquarters
of the war ministry will state.
Great numbers of trains continue to
pass through Warsaw with wounded
Germans and Russians and thousands
of prisoners have been brought back
to concentration camps. The number
Of prisoners thus far taken is upwards
of $4,000. There is no official esti-
mate of the German casualties in hit
and killed available. Among the Ger
man prisoners and wounded are hun
dreds of soldiers who show evidence
of hard service on short rations. Many
cases of frozen limbs are being cared
for in Russian hospitals. The Ger
mans admit that great quantities Of
German supplies have been cut off by
the Russians and that they have suf-
fcred greatly from the lack of medical
attention.

Petrograd, Nov. 2S.-"The feet of
many of the prisoners are frozen"
This detail from the Battle of Lodz
ccnjurcs up picture of Napoleon's
all-conquering army of 100 years ago
which found an enemy it could not
rout-the cold.
Today we have parallel case. The
weather here has turned suddenly cold
and the army of invasion has been
caught in front, flank and rear by chat
redoubtable Russian general, frost.
Now Russia sleeps under q blanket Of
snow.
The weather conditions in Poland
will be an important factor in the flu
ture campaigning of the German
troops, for the most part recruited
from cities and small towns where
it is the custom to coddle ones self
against the cold in winter. At home
they keep their houses well. heated,
cat we'll and are warmly clothed. Now
they are burrowing in frozen ground
to find protection from the shot and
shell of an untiring enemy.
This is in direct contrast to the cir
of the Russian. To him
long cold winters are an old story. He
is Injured to the severest frost. Short
freezing day and gloomy interminable
nights mean nothing to him.
The Russian winter nights will sap
Imperial Valley press., 1914-11-28

the fibre of the finest troops in time
The Battle of Lodz is in its last
stages. Such German corps as have
been able to hold together in spite of
the hammering they have received
keep up the desperate struggle.
German forces retreating from Kol-
juschki have been caught by pursuing
Russians at Bresin. They are trying
to fight their way through to Stri-
kow, but this road is no longer. open
and every hour their position becomes
more desperate. Unless they can re-
plenish their ammunition they are
lost.
The thought of winter in Siberia,
made more vivid by the cold, has Civ
en- the remnant of the German army
the fury of despair, but relentlessly
the Russians close in on them. IF
they break through, but a struggling
remainder will ever find the trail to
Thorn; if they fail, the Battle Of
Lodz will be the greatest catastrophe
ever suffered by German military
power.
The Russian successes in front of
Cracow continue. Captures on the
Austrian side have become so common
that the news that two entire regi-
ments had been recently taken passed
almost without comment. The invest
ment of Cracow is already under way.
The Russians realize what task is
before them and they arc preparing
for a protracted siege. But they have
two surprises in store for their foe.
There is every reason to believe that
these surprises will shorten the invest
ment.
Meanwhile the Russians are con-
verging on Cracow from three sides.
In the battles in this vicinity they
have been almost invariably success
full. Artillery has been taken in every
engagement and two days fighting
resulted in a bag of $4,000 prisoners,
