 The Russians. 1t is said, stationed ar tillerv on the right bank of the Nistula and made earnest efforts to prevent the rebuilding of the Nistula bridges by the Germans and this is borne out in a Berlin communication which de- cares the Russians continue to bonn bard Warsaw from Praga on the east crn bank of the river.

IAssoc1ArED PRESS DIsPATcHI

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7-Secrctary Lansing and Secretary NcAdoo viii confer in New York tomorrow OF the Mexican situation. Secretary Lansing left here tonight. Secretary NcAdoo was summoned by telc- graph from North Haven, Maine. The nature of the conference was not divulged.
 Two developments brought the Mexican situation into position regarded py the American officials as encouraging. General CarTanZa in brief filed in his behalf with Secretary Lansing practically asking recognition. receded from his refusal to join his adversaries in the peace conference and virtually proposed such meeting. Villa was at once notified by his Washington agents, and an early response is expected
 The attitude of the United States outlined officially for the first time since the Pan-American conference was called. made it clear that it considers the purposes of the Mexico revolution were accomplished when Huerta was dcposed: that all the fighting since has only been over factional differences: and that neith- CT fil4atlllEal or ' llld NfitAbl -ltAttD to an extent that entities either to recognition, although il is admitted that both must be taken into con sideration-
 The United States also holds that the first problem to be solved is to find man for provisional president who represents the causes of the original revolution against Huerta but who was not necessarily identi- fled with any of the warning fac tions.
 During the Pan-Amcrican confer encc here there was considerable discussion of the question of finan- cing any government which might be set up in Mexico. l. is known this subject was put over for future consideration when the confrees re- convene in New York next week.
 Undoubtedly American financiers will have to be consulted. Secerary T.ausings mission, it was inferred,

 SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 7.-OnIy Iy constant selection of the best can any race be improved, said Luther Burbank, the plant special ist. in an address tonight before the second National Conference on Race Betterment. His subject was "Evo- lution and Variation With the Fun : damental Purpose of Sex"
 Environment and education alone, cannot, he said, make appreciable progress in the improvement of the race. But with favorable surroun- dings and the selection of the best types, the field for improvement is Iimitless.
 Nr Burbank described the possi- bilities in plant life of fixing characters which benefit the species through natural selection, giving the new combinations new abilities to advance.'
 Abundant, well balanced nourish- ment and thorough culture of plants or animals" he said, twill always produce good results in holding any species or variety up to it's best hereditary possibilities, beyond which it cannot carry them, and lacking which, maximum development can never be realized. But a sharp line must always be drawn between the transient results, temporarily at tained through favorable environ ment and the permanent results of selection of the best individuals for continuing the race.
