the eastern theatre Of war shows the de

It is denied that the Russians contem-

preparations are now being made TO In
crease the force from 1000 to 1900 on
the orders received from Russia alone.
Details of the orders recently placed
with the Baldwin Locomotive Works for
the Russian Government alone are un-
derstood to be about as follows: ESQ

AS has been said before, the Remington
Arms Company has entered into con
tract with the Baldwin Locomotive Works
to erect building at Eddystone at cost
OF 200 and with new machinery
amounting to about 100000. This plant
will be used entirely for the manufacture
of the rifles, and the first order received

stood that half Of this amount has al
ready been paid.
The most recent order placed with the
company, which was on last Wednesday,
calls for the manufacture Of 100000 three
inch loaded shrapnel shells. The financ-

ready been completed. and 25 per cent.
has been received. A bond has also been
received for the completion of the order.
Samuel NJ. FELTON,, of Chicago, noted
railroad man, declined an offer to super

in the United States, according to dis
patches from his home city The offer
is said to have been made last week
through representatives of the Allies, and
is said to have carried a salary of $780,
600 a year.
Several Pennsylvania steel men have
declined to accept war orders. There is
hardly a steel mill in the State that has
not been offered share of the business

in the Sharon Valley said, in refusing to
accept such orders, that he had consci-
entious scruples against making anything

Five million men are believed to be
engaged in the gigantic battle which is
raging in Poland and Galioia with War
saw the objective of the Teutonc hosts.
Never in the worlds history has there
been a conflict in which so many men and
big guns were engaged. In the sector or
Southern Poland alone there are approxi-
mately 100000 men at grips over battle
front 100 miles long.
The great struggle of the Germans is to

Grand Duke Nicholas has regrouped his

LEO FRANK CRITICAL;
WOUND Is INFECTED
Victim of Fellow Convict's
Knife Hovers Between Life
and Death.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ca, July 19.-Leo
NJ. Frank hovered between life and death
today.
During Sunday night he was but half
conscious and raved frequently of the at
tack on him by his fellow prisoner Will
liam Green.
To-day, however. his head was clear
His wife was at his bedside. Doctors j.
w Rosenberg and Compton and other
prominent Atlanta and Macon physicians
attended him.
The wound in his throat, where Green
slashed him, showed a slight infection
from the rusty blade of the knife the
would-be murderer used. The doctors ad-
mitted that blood poisoning was what
they feared most. There was danger also
that the patient. who vomts frequently.
would break the stitches in his neck and,
with his jugular vein partly severed. they
admitted the fresh bleeding almost GER
tainly would kill him quickly.
The physicians complained, too, of the
risk of infection from other, patients, one
of whom has typhoid. Arrangements are
being made TO move Frank from the in
firmary to a private room.
His hands as well as his throat were
gashed in his struggle with Green, but
Inese "ouhus are OF minor Importance,
They were inflicted when he seized's
Green's knife. He was asleep when the
latter who had obtained permission to
visit the lavatory, stopped in passing
Franks bed and, pressing one foot on
his victims chest, plunged the weapon
into his throat.
Green, chained to concrete post, re-
fused to talk today, except to deny that
he was influenced by any one else, and
to assert that he had an inspiration"
His wife, an employe in a Columbus
(Ga) lunchroom, asserts that her hus-
band has been insane since childhood,
when he was injured by a blow on the
head.
Members Of the prison commission also
incline to the opinion that Green is a
maniac.

From the position of the attack It is
evident that the Giuseppe Garibaldi was
one of the ships in the Italian squadron
which has been patroling the Dalmatlan
coast bombarding Austrian positions
from time to time.
The sinking of the Italian cruiser Carl
bsldi by an Austrian submarine recalls
TO the minds OF Italians the incidents
which attended the building of that
cruiser in the early nineties. The first
cruplser which was to be named Carl
baldi, after the Italian national hero,
was being built in the shipyards of An
saldo, at Samperdarena, when the Ar
gentlne Government asked Italy to sell
the ship to the South American repub-
lie, which at that time was on the brink
OF war with Chill over differences about
the delimitation of the boundaries on the
, Andes. The Argentine offer was accent
ed, ana the Italian Ministry OF Marine
ordered another cruiser Of the same type,
but improved, to be built at the Orlando
shipyard at Leghorn. Again the Argen-
tine Republic offered to buy this cruiser,
and the offer was again accepted. The
hrat cruiser Of the Garibaldi type sold TO

the name OF the Italian hero, who also
had fought for the liberty OF the South
American republic, but the one built by
Orlando was named San Martin.
A third cruiser OF the Garibaldi type,
which was 10 have the same name, was
being built In the Orlando shipyard when
H. too, was bought by the Argentine
Government. and named General Bel
grams, Only upon the fourth trial did the
Italian Government succeed in adding to
its navy a cruiser bearing the name OF
Garibaldi, the one which has Just been
sunk by the Austrians off the fortIned
Dalmatian port Of Ragusa
The Garibaldi was a sister shin of the
Narese, which is not unfamiliar TO
Philadelphians. The VaTese was twice |
in this port several years ago. while Il
was commanded by the Duke Of Abruzzi,
then having the rank OF captain. Great
crowds visited the Varese while II was
