CAN WARSAW HoLp7

LONDON, July 19-Can Warsaw be held? With the German field Marshal von Hindenberg on the north and von Hindenberg on the north and yon Machensen, on the south, whip ping forward two ends of a great are around the city, it is realized in Eng land that Grand Duke Nicholas. com mander-in-chief of the Russian army has the most severe task imposed on him since the outbreak of the Euro pean war Military writers in some of the London papers seem to think his task is we'll nigh impossible. Ac- cording to latest accounts the Austro- German forces, advancing from Przazsnysz, were within forty miles of warsaw while to the south Won Machensen's center, at certain points is within ten miles of the Lublin- Cholm raiIyoad.
 There was sustained confidence that Germauy's previous attacks along the Bzura- -Rawka front would never pierce the Russian line but the present col losal coordinate movement developed with such suddenness and was carried so far without meeting serious Rus sian resistence that more and more the British press is discounting the fall of the Polish capital with giving up all hope of its retention and point ing out the enormous difficulty the Russian armies have labored under from the start by the existence such a difficult position
 ! Having been able to straighten ou, the line by an advance through east Prussia in the north and Galicia on 1 the south, the Russians pereptualh faced the pincher of the Austro-Ger mans. If these can now be sufficient Iy frightened Warsaw must go and witt it the entire line
 As in the case Saturday when tho l Austro-Germans recorded success O. their offensive in the east, no officia communication from either Berlin oi Vienna reached London newspapers today Saturray's communication wal
 release Sunday for publication anC up to nearly midnight no new com
 muncation was at hand In the ah
 sence of additional official information
 from Petrograd there is nothing t
 throw light on the eastern front, bu
 the Teuton advance could hardly hav
 lost it's momentum.

sHANKLIN RETURNS.

WASHINGTON, July 19. - Arnold Shanklin. American consul-general in Mexico City, is on his way to Wash inrton under orders from tle State Department to report upon conditions This is stated officially and incidental. ly. it is admitted Shanklin has with drawn temporarily from duty in MeXi- co City to avoid continuation of fric- ton with Senor Cardoza, the Brazilian minister there
 Last week Shaknlin went to the Mexican capital to carry on the Red Cross relief work Some differences, as to methods, developed between the consul general and the Brazilian min ister They are not serious but as Senor Cardoza for many months has been looking after American interests in a manner so thorough and satis factory as to win the qualification of the State Department officials and they regard it as only proper to re move any cause of friction quite re gardless of the merits of the question

MEXICO CITY Is POSSIBLY THE OBJECT OF
 ATTACK
Villa Flying Squadron Reported Marching South to Form Union With Zapata Troops; Gonza- les Leaves City of Mexico.

WASHINGTON, July 19. - Mexico City is again threatened with attack. Carranza forces under Gonzales who drove the Zapata army Tron cae cap ital ten days ago have marched hur ridly uorthward to engage an advan- ciug column which is believed to be planning a Junction witl zapaJa troops, now menacing the communi- cation with Vera Cruz
 State Department dispatches an Inounced that Gonzalez, with most of his army, evacuated Mexico City yesterday. turning the government over to the civil authorities This was just preceded by advices that Villas flying column which circled Obregon's forces after the battle of Aguas Calientes captured Queretaro, taken possession of Pachuca, within forty miles of Mexico City, and was marching on to the capital
 Simultaneously with the latter re- port came the news that Carranza ] had taken possession of the recon structed railroad east of Apizaca at the junction point south of Pachuca, and had ordered it held exclusively for transportation of troops and am munition thus preventing further shipments of provisions from Vera Cruz to the needy thousands in Mexi co City.
 Officials here made no effort to con. ceal the belief that the situation sur rounding Mexico City was grave one. With another battle for the pos session of the city imminent, and with the much needed food shipments from the east coast cut off, it was feared /. further suffering among the civil DO pulation would follow. Gonzalez's
 sudden evacuation of the city, in an effort to head off the invading Villa forces, together with Carranza's ac
 ton in closing the railroad to freight and passenger traffic, it is feared
 here. will make further relief work
 in the capital practically impossible

FRANK MAY RECOVER.

MILLEDGEVILLE, July 19-The condition of Leo Frank. suffering from knife wound In the throat, inflicted by William Green, a fellow life term convict at the Georgia prison farm, re- mained critical tonight Doctor Comp ton, prison physician, announced he was hopeful of Franks recovery al- though blood poisoning from the in- lection was a danger to be feared. Green told the officials he believed he had been called from on high to kin Frank" whose death sentence for Mary Phagan's murder recently was commuted by Governor Slaton now retired. He indicated no remorse for what he had done.
 "I only wish ! had more strength, ' Green said. "I think l have done my duty in this matter as well as my strength allowed. ] believe God help ed me- l do not think I ever did wrong in my life" Green, although weighs 165 pounds. is partly paralyled in his left arm.

STRIKING MACEINIsTs
PERSISTENT

BRIDGEPORT, July Negotia- tions to bring about a ettlement of the difficulties betkeen the machinists at Bridge and the Remington Arms Company engaged on a gigantic scale of manufacture of war munitions for the allies, have failed. Lebor leaders announced tonight that the first of the macLinists would have thrown down his tools and the walk-out begin at noon tomorrow, "A hour from the original time set for beginning the strike.
 They added that within a week all work in Remington shops and in shops of sub-contractors would be al stand still
 Just how far the strike might spread in other manufacturing communities of New England, labor leaders were unable to estimate.
 S. J. J. Keppler, International Vice President of the Machinists Union said he and other labor leaders here would pay no attention to the call of Samuel Gompers for conference ai Washington. Neither Gompers noi the President of the United States car stop this strike now" he said.

CABINET TO READ ROUGH DRAFT OF J. s. NOTE
 TODAY
President and Lansing Will Pre- sent Draft of Note to the Cab met for Inspection; Note Goes Forward This Week.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-The pres ident and Lansing prepared a draft of the note on submarine warfare to be submitted to the cabinet tomorrow and sent to Germany probably before the end of the week Beyond the fact that the position already taken by the United States in the previous notes will be reiterated. no information is forthcoming at either the White House of the State Department concerning the probable contents of the new note.
 The president cautioned those with whom he counseled to refrain from discussing the note in advance of its dispatch to Germany. while public of ficials particularly requested cores pondents to avoid speculation in the details this time because the charac- ter of the document was not finally determined The note, it is under stood will be comparatively brief eX- pressing the conclusions of this gov ernment as a result of Germany's fail ure to give the assurances asked for in the previous notes, namely, that the lives of Americans travelling on the high seas, bound on lawful errands aboard unresisting and unarmed mer chantmen. should not be endangered
 As yet the case of the British liner Orduna which was attacked by a Ger man submarine, has not been brought officially, to the attention of the State Department. Lansing said he expected word from some American passengers aboard but if this failed to arrive in another day or two, he would request one of the departments of the govern ment to institute an investigation tc obtain an accurate report concerning the incident

CANANEA TAKEN BY TROOPS IF CALLES; NO
 WORD HAD
Unofficial Information Confirms RumOrS That Cananea Falls Into Hands of General Gales and His Force.
ALL COMMUNICATION
 CUT OFF FROM BORDER
Six Hundred Americans in Can anea; No Trouble of Any Kind Is Anticipated; Gales Move mentS Mystery to Border.

Cananea. Sonora. has been taken by Gen. Gales at the head of an in- vading army of 5000. The town and surrounding country are now under his domination
 So far as can be ascertained up to the present time, no Americans have been molested as concerns life and property
 Simultaneously with the advance of the attacking forces, all lines of com munication were cut. Telephone and telegraph wires were put out of CO., mission and Cananea has not been in touch with the outside world since Sunday afternoon
 The first word concerning the rapid change of events which attended the downfall of the Maytorenistas in Can anea was received in Bisbee shortly before noon yesterday when those in long-distance telephone communica- ton with the town were "cut off" without warning
 Prior to this, it was learned that Gales and his army took the town almost by entire surprise. A 1 Naytorena force of about 500 soldiers accompanied by the usual camp fol- l lowing of women and children wac 1 short distance from the town when ] Gen Gales and his army approached. ] One account has it that part of Calles' lforce was detached and sent in pur- suit of the retreating Maytorenistas and that 9 brief enlargement resulted. i The bestauthenticated reports have l it that dozen of the Maytorena sol | Idiers were killed and a score or more wounded. The Gales detachment then reioined the main body which advanc- ed on Cauanca. Meantime, Maytorena officials had fled and Gen Gales en- tered tho town without further oppo- sition and took charge
 Up 10 a late hour this afternoon no information had been received as to the effect of this military movement on the operations of the Greene-Ca0- anea Consolidated Copper Coupany's mines Whether work was halted and if SO. whether operations win be re- sumed immediately are matters which will not be known until cOrroborated news can be secured
 Dr. L. L. Ricketts General Manager
 of Greene-Canauea, started for the lSonora town Sunday morning Ff-
 forts made by The Review to get in
 touch with him this afternoon were Iunavailing Unverfed reports have 1t that the mine will be forced to shut
 down if railroad communication is
 halted The supply of coke on hard
 is not sufficient to keep the mines in operation in the absence of replenish-
 ment day by day
 At last account there were about
 600 Americans in Cananea Little an- Xiety is felt for their safety as there
 is every assurance that their lives Twin be respected even if property in- , terests are menaced The Mexican IDopulation of Cananea is approximate <. fly 1000 but their attitude is neutral
 on the surface and it is believed
 that the Callistas will not molest them

Their movements, however. were shrouded in mystery and early Sunday morning the blow struck
 Gales with his entire command struck at the combined Acosta and Truiiro force at Anayachachi Pass. After several hours of fighting in which both sides lost considerably in killed and wounded, the Villa forces retired 10 La Morita and later to San Jose.
 By noon Sunday the word had reach ed Naco of the defeat administered to the Maytorena soldiers and it was feared the Gales troops would press their victory and enter the border town at once. The Naco officials closed all the saloons and made pre- parations for a hasty exit After an hour. however, the saloons were all lowed to reopen, with the proviso that they sell no liquor to anyone living in Mexico or wearing a uniform.
 About noon Sunday a part of Tru jnlo's command appeared near NacC and again threw the residents of the saloon towA into consternation. Later in the afternoon Trujillo, himself with a few soldiers, came into Naco spent about fifteen minutes and lef for San Jose where his command wal situated
 At the same time the wounded, con sisting of seven men, were taken iron the Naco cuartel and placed aboard a train and taken south, with proyi sions for Truiillo's troops. It is als' said that a command under Colonel Ramos and De La Vega appeared dur ing the afternoon and camped at Sal Jose.
