cupied the Russian position at Boiimow,
on the battle front before Warsaw. the
Russian war office states that the in
vaders later were driven back again
abandoning six machine guns.
Except for the advance Of the French
into Alsace, there is little activity in
the west. Both sides apparently are
content for the present to hold their
intrenched positions, leaving the fight
ing largely to artillery.
Nearing the Rhine.
The right wing of the French army
the River Rhine, holding the Alsatian
village of Steinbach and the heights
to the southeast of the village after
one of the most stubborn localized
fights of the war.
At no other point of the western
front has there been any noteworthy
change; the news consequently dwells
chiefly today on the bad weather con-
ditions.
In Poland there has been little shift
in the relative positions of the invad-
ing and defending armies. The Ger
mans continue to deliver their furious
and intermittent attacks on the Bzura-
Rawka line. To the south the Rus
slams have swept forward to Suszawa.

vaders and the Russians are appar-
emily still fighting out their battle in
the region of Sari Kamysh, both sides
claiming victory.
Alsace is probably the most significant
news from the western front in a
number Of weeks andy some OBJ
servers here it is taken to indicate
future attempts on the part OF the
allies to break through in this region,

Too Wet for Fighting.
For the moment the swampy con-
dition If the ground in West Elan
ders precludes a general advance in
this locality. Furthermore General
Joffre's feeling tactics at other points
have resulted in no great gains and it
consequently would not be a surprise
II the heaviest fighting during the
next fortnight centered on the eastern
slopes OF the Vosges mountains. 1t is
down these hills that the French AL
pine Chasseurs backed by the famous
rs millimetre guns swept to victory
yesterday at Steinbach after sorle OF
the most sanguinary fighting Of the
campaign. Only little further ad-
vanced to the southeast British COM

the allies possession Of the village of
Cernay. They now hold the heights
to the west of this town and. it's fall

Whether the Turks are exaggerating
their successes or not they are doing
| some hard fighting in the Caucasus,
judging from dispatches reaching
London. Even kilograms from Petro-
grad admit this situation is becoming
one of the first Importance. There is
no sign as yet of Russia's moving

BURDENS OF Grief
Telephone Men Told Their
Troubles to Utilities Board.
And the Meeting Was Called to
Hear the Other Side of 1t.

Following a decision of the commits
sion to investigate further into the
practice Of telephone companies OF
Kansas collecting rentals in advance,
the telephone hearing was wound up
late Monday evening after an all day
informal session before the Kansas
public utilities commission. Testimony
introduced during the hearing was
practically all from telephone men Of
the state.
a different line than expected. Prior
to the hearing an invitation was is
sued by the commission to mayors of
Kansas towns and those who had
kicks to register to appear and tell
their troubles before the commission.
With the exception Of W. C. Ralston,
attorney for the city Of Topeka, not a
complainant appeared. Instead Of
patrons Of the telephone companies
telling their troubles to the commits
sion representatives Of the companies
told Of their troubles in collecting
rentals.
Members of the commission are now
the case and II found that formal
hearing Is necessary it will be called
on a future date.
THE meeting was not called for the
purpose Of issuing an order" said q
member Of the commission today. 1T
was called informally to investigate
the complaints. The required thirty
days notice was not given because.

not necessary"
Hunts Explanation.
According to John L. Hunt, who as
attorney represented the Missouri and
Kansas Telephone company. the OBJ
lection which he made yesterday
ag inst the commission making an or
der because 1t had failed to give thirty
days notice. was a mere formality.
THE commission" said Mr.. Hunt,
proceeded just as it would have pro-
ceeded il the objection had not been
made and the companies offered their
evidence as they would have II the
objection had not been made. The
objection had no effect on the hearing
and was made simply as a formal
matter

more pumps and again everything will
be lovely for the CITY,"
Third Trial q Charm.
Perhaps it will. Possibly the third
trial will prove a charm.
But the peculiar thing about the sit
uation is that more than SAG, 900 has
been spent without expert advice and
without getting the results promised
and the city now proposes to spend $15,-
600 or $4,000 more in the same way.
Oh, yes; there has been expert ad-
vice-gratuitous advice. There was the
expert who was selling pumps, and
did sell the city a $4,000 pump. He
gave plenty of advice. But If the adj
vice was good. why the $4,000 reservoir
proposed now?
Don't you think. Frank" inquired
Roy l.. Bone, city commissioner of
finance. that it would be we'll to have
an expert go over the situation and
tell us what it needed"

of water. "a Mr.. Dawson of Kansas
City spent halliday at the plant with
me and then came down to the office
and I'D me all about what to do
Dawson, it is understood, represents a
firm which sells pumps.
Only Simple Proposition.
Eyes. but that is a different propo-
sition from hiring a man OF profess
sional standing and having him pre-
pare a written report, one to which
he is willing to sign his name and
stake his professional reputation "
urged the commissioner of finance.
1T seems to me that this is a very
simple proposition said Mayor Cof-
ran, speaking in favor Of Newland's
recommendation.
So Bones suggestion Of having the
city know what it will be doing was
brushed aside and when a vote was
| taken to instruct the city engineer to

the, building OF a reservoir and the

as outlined in a written communities

of it.
A reservoir may be needed. 1t may
be the absolutely correct solution OF
the problem. if a problem really ex.
