NEW YORK. Jan, I'll a.
M Russia's new campaign in
Hungary is now apparently being
developed from two directions,
which accounts for the slow pre-
liminary progress being made.
Instead OF crossing the Car
pathians and moving on Buda-
pest from the north alone,
double advance from the north
and east seems 10 be in process
OF formation.
The eastern movement is being
planned in Bukovina. the Hun
garian crown land that borders
Rumanla Russian troops are
now in possession OF Bukoyina
and are reported to be making a
new concentration toward Tran
sylvania province, which Is in the
direction OF Budapest The delay
in Russias offensive through the
Carpathians may be due Z TO
strategic requirement that the adj
vance from the north wait upon
greater progress OF the eastern
movement.
Petrograd has counted upon
Rumania's armies undertaking the
eastern campaign against Buda-
pest. but Rumania appears too
suspicious OF the equivocal at

PIERCE RUSS FRONT
NORTH AND SOUTH
Teutons Preparing to Smash and De-
stroy Cars Army-10,0o 100000
Men in Fight.

London, July 20.--North and south
the Germans have pierced the Russian
front, according to dispatches from
Berlin and Vienna, and the millions
of Won Hindenburg and the other mil
lions under Won Mackensen are smash
ing forward to close the gap behind
Warsaw and trap, crush and destroy
the greater portion of the Russian
armies
On a front of more than 400 miles,
in a campaign unparalleled in history
for daring and startling maneuvers
and the colossal number of men en-
gagged, Teuton and Slav are at death
grips. More than 100000 are re-
ported fighting on both sides. No less
than two-thirds of the Germans under
arms have been thrown into this east
ern battle, according TO the estimates
of military experts, while practically
the entire strength of Austria Hungary
has been added to the Armageddon on
which hangs the fate of nations.
The long-maturing plans of Won
Hindenburg, the Prussian military
genius, which it has been predicted
will startle the world, are in process
of quick development. Leading his
own legions, he has split and broken
the Russian front south of PrZasnycz,
and hurting his armies forward on the
heels of the rapidly retreating Slay,
has extended his advance until it ap-
proaches the banks of the Narew.
Meanwhile in the south, the armies
under Won Mackensen which for the
last two weeks have been shifting
front and apparently we're inactive, be-
gan a massive movement against the
Lublin-Chol railway in concert with
Hindenburg's northern drive and
breaking the Russian front near Kras-
nostav, "a miles south of Lublin, are
sweeping in tremendous strength
against the railroad upon which the
grand duke depends for his supplies.

With Butcher Knife.
WOUND MAY PROVE FATAL
Creeps to Victims Bunk and Cuts Jug

Sticking knife-Governo to
Start Investigation.

Milledgeville, Ga, July 20.-Leo M.
Frank is lying in the Georgia state
prison hospital with jagged wound
in his throat made by fellow pris-
oner armed with a butcher knife. At
tendants say he has fighting chance
for recovery. Physicians have sue
ceeded in stopping the flow of blood
from the wound.
William Green, fellow convict, also
serving life term for murder, slashed
Frank as the latter slept in his bunk
in a dormitory late Saturday night.
An investigation of the attack prob
ably will be conducted by the Georgia
prison commission, the same body
that refused tc recommend that
Franks death sentence for the murder
of Mary Phagan be committed to life
Imprisonment. Reports from Allan
ia were that Governor Harris init
mated he would start such an investi-
cation to ascertain if Green acted en-
tirely OF his own volition.
Green said, when taken from soli-
tary confinement long enough to be
questioned, that he planned the attack
alone and that no one knew what he
intended to do He was not commune
cative and gave as his only excuse
that che thought it should be done"
He said, however, he regretted his
act.
Frank was quartered at night in
dormitory with about 100 other pris-
oners and occupied a bunk about 40
feet from one of the two doors to the
large room. Green's bunk was fourth
from his. No prisoner is allowed to
leave his place without permission
from one of the two guards stationed
at the dormitory at night. Shortly
after eleven o'clock Green called out
for permission to get up and it was
granted.
He started down the line of hunks
toward the one occupied by Frank.
AS he reached it he quickly grabbed
Frank by the hair and delivered one
blow with the knife he had concealed.
A guard rushed to the bunk and pre-
vented Green from striking again.
Among prisoners who rushed to
Franks aid were two physicians, one
of whom also was serving life term
for murder. They gave first aid and
treated the wouH6 until DR.. Guy
Compton, the prison physician, was
summoned from his home, half mile
away. The three men took 20
stitches in Franks neck DR.. II. j.
Rosenberg, the Frank family physi-'
clan, arrived from Atlanta with
nurses. He said that, while the pa
tents condition was precarious, he
had a chance for life.

Cleveland, O., July 19-Floods which
raced through towns and cities in cen
trail Ohio, following torrential rains of
Thursday night. took toll of four
lives and caused a property damage
estimated at more than $2.000.000
Conditions in several cities virtually
equaled those of the disastrous floods
of 1913, when more than 500 lives
were lost in Ohio. Hundreds of acres
of land are under water and vast areas
are imperiled by weak levees.
Lima, where three of the four lives
were lost, is probably the worst sufferer
of any Ohio city. Late reports are
that more than 1900 are homeless and
the property loss is probably $1,000

lin Situation in Shape for
the Cabinet.

Washington, July 19.--In an inter-
view here, to which considerable i'm
portance had been attached. Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambas-
sador, found Secretary Lansing unre-
sponsive to suggestion that the Uni
tea states undertake again to ap-
preach Great Britain with view of
erecting an arrangement under the
terms of which the British embargo
on shipments of supplies of all kinds
TO German ports and the German sub
marine warfare on unarmed merchant
ships would be discontinued.
ms proposal appeared to be the
main purpose of the ambassadors call
on the secretary of state. Briefly, the
position of Secretary Lansing was
that. as the German proposal had
been suggested to Great Britain pre-
v1ously and had failed to bring any
response, it was useless to renew it.
The interview between Count Won
Bernstcrf and Secretary Lansing
might be CONSTRUCTED as of primary i'm
portance If the ambassador had not
given the impression that he was act
ing on his own initiative and did not
appear as the bearer of direct pro-
posals from his government.
Beyond the suggestion that the
United States again undertake to
bring about modus vivendi that
would bind Great Britain to suspend
what the German government terms
England's starvation policy" and bind
Germany to discontinue the sinking of
merchant ships before an opportunity
was given to enable their passengers
and crews to reach places of safety
nothing was said by the German en-
voy, according to the best information
obtainable, to change the understand
ing of the United States on Germany's
attitude as made known in the latest
note of the Berlin government.
AS matters stand the response of
this government will be based on Ger
many's unwillingness to concede that
she is bound by the established rule
of international law that merchant
vessel, no matter what its status,
shall not be seat to the bottom by
German submarine until after the re-
quirement of visit and search has
been complied with and passengers
and crew have been afforded time to
reach place of safety.
