move Tn a SGDSuIuts plan when Send- torax Gore, who introduced an amend ment ship bill yesterday, moved to discharge the commerce committee from it's consideration.
 To Put Opponents on Defensive.
 Te champions of the bill. after careful canvass of the situation today believe they can get votes enough to carry the Gore motion and in that way the amended bill, which virtually is the caucus measure with changes de- signed to draw support from the pro gressive republicans, can be reported back to the senate and thereby force the republicans to resume their de- fensive fight to prevent the bill from coming to @ final vote.
 Allies Force a Recess.
 Tn view of this situation, the allied opposition forces determined today up on @ rest, and rallied enough votes to force a recess of te senate until MOn- day. Senator Clarke Of Arkansas, made the motion for the recess. The Administration democrats did not op- pose 1t although it had been planned to call up the Gore motion tomorrow.
 Hope to Break FiIibuster.
 If Monday the democratic leaders find that they have enough votes, counting on the vice president in case of 0 tie, JnSy VIII attempt 10 get a. vote rom the motion to recommit with instruC- tions, if not, some of the leaders be- heve it will be well to let the Clarke motion, to send the bill back to the cornERittee with out instructions, pass, andT4ater fall back on the Gore motion to discharge the committee.
 Apparently few of the demorcatic leaders now have much hope of break ing tue so-called republican flibuster against the measure, however, and there were many rumors today that the bill may be laid aside. after strenuous effors to pass it within the next week so that appropriation meas ures may be considered.
 ReVolters Defend Their Position.
 Today the senate was enlivened by speeches of insurgent and regular democrats, rehearsing the revolt over the bill Senators Harwich and Var damsn vigorously defended their po- sitions in revolting and assaiIed Sen ator Stone for his attack upon them Senator James again criticized his colleagues and arraigned Senator Camden who he said would ",Holdup tine hands of the president while the renIIhticans tied them" :"

RUSSIANS ARE AGGRESSIVE
 TO WEST OF WARSAW.
Hsve Crossed the Rzura River and
 Taken Some German Positions.

London, Feb. 5-Coincident with the arrival at the front of Emperor Nich- Olas, the Russians have assumed the offensive directly west of Warsaw and. according to a Russian official state ment have crossed the Bzura river and taken some German positions. This in the opinion of military experts will if the Russians have sufficient forces at their disposal, break the deadlock which has existed in the battle in Central Poland for so many weeks. since it threatens the flank of General Non Hindenberg' army which is en- gagged in tine violent struggle immedi- ately to the southwest in an effort to break down he Russian defensive in he region of Borjin1oW
 Capture German Positions.
 The Russians appear, according to reports from Petrograd. to have cross ed the Bzura near its junction with the VIstula and, working southward, to have taken part of the German Do- sition near Dakhova- south of Socfac- zew, which was the point at which the Germans made their original atternpt to break the Warsaw line This new offensive on the part of the Russians explains their anxiety to clear the right bank of the lower VistuIa of the Germans for, having accomplished tihg they are free of threats of an ont nanking movement from that dfrec- tion.
 Desperate Fighting Continues.
 Still there has been no slacker1ipr in the desperate fighting which has been proceeding for some days in the woods and roads along the right bank oe the Rawka river. from Borjimow to the SklernieWice- Warsaw road. Here attacks of the German alternate with those of the Russians under an artiI- leTy fire the violence which has never been exceeded.
 In the meantime the Russians are making slow progress in east PIus- sis5 and are withstandiug the attempts of the Austro- German forces to take the offensive on he River Nida, in southern Poland and on the Dunajec river in Galicia-
