LONDON. Aug S.-The Germans continue to make progress in their eff forts to cut off the Russian retreat from the Polish salient They have commenced an attack on the fortresses of Kovno and Ossowetz which are among the obstacles to overcome in or der to reach the railroad from Warsaw through Wilma and Dvneisk to Petro- grad. They have taken the minor fortresses Serock at the junction of tNe Narew and the Bug and crossed the Vistula near Warsaw.
 Further south General Woyrsch is advancing eastward but General von Mackensen is being stubbornly resisted and is apparently making slow prog ress. On the whole. the daring scheme mapped out by the Germans as se- quel to the capture of Warsaw-the destruction of the Russian army-is slowly unfolding. With three main railways besides those built since the war. it is believed in military circles here that Nicholas will be able to extri- cate the Warsaw army.
 The Germans have gained minor suc- cesses in the Argonne forest where the Crown Princes army has been trying for weeks to find a weak spot in the French defenses but their efforts to recover lost trenches on LinEekopf in Nosges it is declared cost them dearly.
 There has been rather heavy fighting in the Caucasus between the Russians and Turks but official reports are con- tradictory. There is much interest in the diplomatic negotiations in the Bal kan capitals and reports indicate that Serbia at last is willing to cede Mace donia to Bulgaria but the Greek gov- ernment is opposing any suggestion to return Kavala, seaport Vilayet of Sa- lonki to Bulgaria

 WASHINGTON, Aug. S-Secretary of the State Lansing returning from New York where he conferred with Secretary McAdoo, announced the Pan American conference would probably be resumed on Wednesday. Mexican affairs were discussed generally, he said.
 We talked over the Mexican situa- ton but did not consider any financial plan for supporting a Mexican govern ment. The principal purpose of my visit to New York was to talk with MT. McAdoo concerning financial ar engagements for the Pan-American fi- nancial congress to be held at Buenos Aires in September Considerable pre- liminary work is to be done in connec- tiOn with that
 Administration officials who were yesterday inclined to believe that a peace party between the Mexican fac tions might soon result independent of an appeal to the military leaders, which will go forward from the Pan-Ameri- can nations. were not so sanguine to- day. Reports that Dr. Ortega, Guate- malian minister to Mexico City was given his passports by Carranza and ordered to leave in 24 hours were re- sponsible for the change. As Guate- mala is represented at the Latin Amer ican conference Carranzas drastic ac- ton is regarded here as indicating a disposition of unfriendliness to the con-

United States Commissioner of Indian Affairs Returns to Phoenix After Visit to Two Tribes of Southern Arizona

Tt is perfectly wonderful what the Papagoes have Accomplished in their struggle for existence under the most adverse conGitions,' said Hon. Cato Sells, United States com missioner of Indian Affairs, on his return to Phoenix yesterday after a week spent in visiting the Papago and Pima reservations. In their fight to sustain life these people have during the last two hundred years developed every possible re source available, and they are now beginning to get out of that eXis tence an increasing measure of progress. They are a moral people, exceedingly industrious and intelli- gent"
 Commissioner Sells started on his trip July 3l. Accompanied by Gov ernor Hunt and a number of offic- ials of the Indian service, he went from here to Sacaton, and thence directly south by way of Tucson and San Xavier From the historic mis- sion the party went to the Papago reservation visiting many of the villages, and studying the conditions under which the people are living At Indian oasis Commissioner Sells held a pow-wow or conference with the Indians the meeting lasting all of one afternoon.
 Living conditions among the Pap agoes are different from any other tribe" said Commissioner Sells last evening "They are different because of the nature of the country in which they live. l never have seen a more absolute desert, and yet for hundreds of years they have sue ceeded |. in wrestling a living where there appeared to be none whatever I am sure that there is no branch of the Caucasian race which could have managed to exist under such conditions. and | doubt if there is another Indian tribe that could have done SO There is nothing these in dustrious people have not utilized in their struggle against the inhos- pitabIe desert.

SAYS PARADISE VALLEY WATER

United States Geological Survey Makes EXamina- tion at Request of Vice President Dealing With Ground Water Supply
Especial to The Republican,

WASHINGTON. Aug. S. The
 United States geological survey an
 nounces the publication of report
 on ground water in Paradise Valley.
 which lies a short distance north of
 Phoenix. Ariz. This report is based
 on an examination made last sum mer at the request of Vice President
 Thomas 3. Marshall. by O. E. Mein- ger and A J. Ellis, of the survey staff
 It contains a brief but important statement of the physiOGraphy, drainage, geology. soil and vegeta-
 tion of the valley. and discussion
 of it's climate as compared with that
 of the citrus belts of the southwest.
 Il describes the source, occurrence,
 depth, and quality of the ground
 waters and gives instructions for
 sinking wells and installing pumps
 The report plainly states that there
 is no evidence of artesian structure and that wells should be drilled with the understanding that pumping will
 be necessary; moreover, that the yield of wells and the ultimate sup ply of ground water will be found to be much less than in the Salt
 River valley
 The prospects of obtaining depen dable supplies from underground sources for irrigation on a small scale are sufficiently encouraging to justify the sinking and testing Of wells. and, with good management, it should be practicable to pump tho available supplies for irrigation in the southern part of the valley where the water table is less than % feet below the surface. The re- port includes an underground water map and other Illustrations. amorg which are views of the desert for ests of mesquite, palo verde, and giant cactus.

 Six specific recommendations are made in the report, as follows:
 1-The establishment of standard ized system of milk grading and label ling
 Establishment of country milk stations by producers, in cooperation with local business men and railroads, where milk may be graded and pro- cessed and the surplus utilized in the manufacture of cheese and butter.
 3-Bookkeeping by farmers for keep ing accurate records of production costs and economizing farm operations. cooperative arrangement is suggest ed
 4-Reform of transportation meth ods. abolishing the leased car system and establishing a uniform rate per can.
 5-Improvement of city distribution.
 6-Advertisement of the food value of milk and milk products.
 It is pointed out in the report that the low price at which the New Eng land farmer is forced t sell his milk to the dealer is dale to the leased car sys- tenn of transportation. under which, in 75 per cent of the territory. the pro ducer has no one to whom to sell ex- cept the one dealer operating the car in his locality.

There is no animal or plant from which any conceivable support for life may be obtained that is not used
 All the Papagocs ask from the government is an opportunity de cIared Commissioner Sells. They are disposed to cooperate with the government in every way. They have aroused my sympathy and my deep interest
 Commissioner Sells is the first commissioner of Indian affairs to visit the Papagoes, who in the past have received practically no atten- tion from the government. In the past nothing whatever was done for them, but very recently some schools have been built, and wells drilled at certain points. The In dians have made their living in a land which probably no white man would consider for a moment as habitable, and they have sue ceeded in existing there for oyer two hundred years
 on his return from the south, Commissioner Sells spent three days at Sacaton on the Pima reservation. He was greatly pleased with the showing made by the PInas and found conditions satisfactory from an administrative point of view.
 The Pimas are industrious and anxious to help themselves" he said. They are doing very well I found them very anxious about their water rights, and the protec- tion of these are Of great concern 10 them"
