German Attacks North
Of Warsaw Growing in
Fury; Russ Giving Way

PETROGRAD. June 26.-German ct
tacks north of Warsaw are increasing in
violence. The war office admitted to-
day that under terrific bombardment by
German howitzers. the Russians were
forced to evacuate fertilization
wrecked by the enemy's fire.
Between the Omulew and Orzec rivers
considerable enemy artillery re-enforce-
ments have arrived. accompanied by
fresh bodies of infantry. Whether the
new attack launched by the Teutons In
this region constitutes the beginning of
a new drive on Warsaw Is not indicated
in official dispatches made public here.
The war office. however. reported the
fighting between the rivers growing
more intense.
In southeast Galcia the Slavs continue
to beat back all enemy attempts to
cross the Dniester. The remnants of
General Won Linsineens forces defeated
at Rosary have been thrown back across
the river with heavy lose. In the
Martynow-Styr region, Il5 prisoners
have been taken, in addition to those
previously reported
Austrian troops Thursday night
launched a new attempt to cross the
river south OF BukacEoviCe. Russian ar
tillery shattered one enemy pontoon
after another. and at noon yesterday,

and Miss Florence Schneider, debu-
tante daughter OF Franklin T. Schnei-
der, millionaire owner Of the Cairo
apartments and other valuable District
properties and of the Associated Candy
Stores, the headquarters Of which are
in Pittsburgh. on December 12 at the
Church OF the Covenant. was one of
the social events OF the season for the
Capitals residential set.
Niles Schneider made her debut dur
Ing the winter of 1914 and was a popu-
ton girls who were presented with her
to society during the season.
Young Forney came to this city from
Coshocton, Ohio. He was graduated in
attire taking the bar examination en-
tered on practice in this city. He sub
sequcntly opened an office In the Union
Trust building.

their Honeymoon the couple returned to
Washington and took an apartment at
the Cairo. where the brides family
resides.
Friends of the Schneider family and
OF young Fortney were dumbfounded
today to learn that he had been ar
rested In connection with the assault
upon the Washington millionaire.
That Mr.. Schneider had been assault
ed in the Pittsburgh hotel was known
here several hours after the assault
was committed. 1t was known that
the millionaire was not seriously in
Jured and those familiar with his busi-
ness affairs suspected that the assault
was the result OF bad feeling which
existed between him and persons with
whom he had had troubles involving
the candy concern.
Efforts to get into communication
with Mrs. Schneider or Mrs. Forney
ELECTED replies that both were out OF
the city. Friends OF the family did not
know whether Mrs. Forney was in
Pittsburgh or whether she had been

Mass Meeting to Be
Held to Protest Cut
In Navy Yard Wages

A mass meeting of the employees Of
the Washington navy yard. where a
cut in the wages OF machtnists has
been ordered. will be held tomorrow.
at 2 o'clock to protest against the re-
duction and devise means for oppos-
ing It. The mass meeting will be held
at Naval Lodge Hall following action
last night by the union moulders EN-
ployed at the yard who adopted pro-
test resolution.
William H; Johnston, president of
the International Association of Ma
chinists. and N. p. Alias. president OF
the local union of machinists, will be
among the speakers.
In connection with the action Of the
Navy Department in ordering the wage
cut. Mr.. Alifas issued a statement today
denying the departments claim that the
cut is necessary because Of the action
of Congress with reference to the ap-
propriations for the Washington navy
yard and Indian Head. Mr.. Alifas
asserts that private employers are now
Offering attractive wages to machinists
and the Government should increase
rather than decrease wages.
