Battlefield Drenched In Blood.


Speciu, h., "a.
Petrograd, Nov. 21;-Of the three
battle areas in the eastern theatre OF
war, that in Poland between the Wis
tula and the Warthe rivers is being
drenched with blood in the most des-
perate fighting of the Russo-German
war. The Russian war Office claims
that the German offensive in this Sec
tion has been partially checked. Loss
es on both sides have been exceeding
ly heavy and the details received
here of the fighting along the banks
of the River Bzura, upon which the
Russians retired, bring frightful
stories of trap into which the Ger
man cavalry rode.
The Russians, in withdrawing
along the BZura, mined the banks.
The Germans pressed forward in hot
pursuit, seeking a crossing. When a
heavy detachment had reached the
river the mines were exploded. The
dstruction was terrible Men and
horses were blown to atoms. Wound
ed riders and their mangled mounts
we're thrown into the river, the hor-
ses and survivors bolted and leaped
into the river. The bed of the river
had been entangled with barbed wire
and men and mounts became en-
tangled into a hopeless and strug-
Cling mass of flesh. The survivors of
the explosion along the bank who
| were not drowned, were kicked or
crushed to death by the struggiink
! horses. ~s~
The Russians also opened fire on
| the tangle of men and horses and but
| few escaped. These were immedi-
ately made prisoners

FIRING 0F SHOT
WAS FRIENDLY
SAYS TUN|ULTY
,ocial bU United Press Wire.

Special By United Press Wire.
Washington, Nov. 21:-That the
firing of a shot across the bow of
the launch of the United States
cruiser Tennessee, while it was at
tempting to enter the harbor OF
Smyrna, Turkey, was a frlendiy
warming, was the opinion of the cap
tain OF that schooner. This was made
plain in a statement issued by Secre-
tary to the President Tumulty this
afternoon. Despite the statement OF
Captain Decker the entire matter Is
to be fully investigated :: nd the Turk
ish government has been asked for
its version. Tumulty's statement,
issued after consultation with
President Wilson, was as follows:
THE public already knows what
has happened, namely, boat from
the Tennessee tried to enter the
harbor, harbor which the Turkish
government had declared closed. A
shot was fired across her bow to stop
her The captain of the Tennessee
reports this was not intended as a
hostile act.
"A full investigation of the matter
is being made and an explanation has
been asked from the Turkish govern
ment. Previous attempts to COM
municate with Ambassador Morgan-
thau in Constantinople have led to
delays of as much as a week"

GENERAL VILLA
NEAR CAPITAL;
MANY FLEEING

Vera Cruz, No. 21--The land fu-
gitives who reached here before traf-
fic on the railroad out of Mexico
City was suspended today told of a
reign of terror in the capital. Thou
sands are fleeing by every possible
vehicle. Only few constitutionalist
troops guard the city and there is
constant menace of pillage by Zap =
alta. General Obregons main army
has left the city, ostensibly it went
to battle with the advancing army Of
General Villa, but 1t is believed here
that instead the constitutionalist
commander withdrew his forces
either to the east or west of tn.
capital affecting junction with
other Carranza troops.
1t is believed here that the way
is now open for Villa to make his
entry into Mexico City by tomorrow
night. No forces of any magnitude
now oppose his army of $4,000 men.
