RUSSIAN FORCES
ASSUME OFFENSIVE
TIDE OF BATTLE TURNING
AGAINST THE GERMANS IN
NORTH POLAND.
Plan Of Teutons to Smash the Rus.

Failed and Relnforcements are
Being Rushed Forward.

With Russian successes in the re-

allied fleet In the Dardanelles and
the decision of the allied govern.
ments to stop all shipping to and from
Germany, Austria and Turkey, 1t is
believed here that a new phase OF the
war is about to be entered upon.
While the success reported by Pet
rograd covers only small portion OF
the long front in north Poland and
the Germans have been able to record
a counter success near Kolno, the gen
eral impression among military men
in London is that not only has the
German offensive in the north ex
hausted itself, but the tide Is turn
ing in favor of the Russians, who
with railways at their back, have
been able to bring up more reinforce
ments than the invading army, whose
communications, after Germany. ter
ritory is left, must cross a county OF
marshes and overfiowing rivers.
Much more fighting, however, must
be waged before final decision is
reached, and in the meantime the bat.
tie has been resumed In central Pc
land, where the Russians have made
slight advance, and the engage
ments in the Carpathians, eastern Ga.
licia and Bukowina continued with
unabated fury.
From what can be gathered from the
official reports, the Russians, despite
the onslaughts made upon them from
all sides by the Austrians and Ger.
mans, have been able to maintain
their strength at all points and to
throw in new troops where they were
necessary. AS result the Austro-
German plan of compelling them to
weaken their center by attacking the
two extreme wings has failed and,
while the Russians have been forced
from East Prussian and Kukowina,
they have been able to make stand
and, when reinforced, deliver counter
attacks, which apparently are making
some Roadway.
The only activity of any Importance
In the west is in the Champagne dis
trict, where the French continue their
offensive and where the fighting, &C
cording to the German report. has
been quite spirited, and in the coun'
try to the north of Verdun, where
there have been heavy artillery en-
gagements in which the French claim
to have done damage to German guns
and encampments. French airmer
have been dropping bombs on the
Metz fortress.

RURAL CREDITS
RIDER CHANGED
HOUSE FRAMES SUBSTITUTE
FOR FARM LOAN PLAN &C
CEPTED BY SENATE.
Would Provide System Of Farm Loan
Associations to Make Loans on
Farm Mortgages at 6 Per
Cent Interest.

Washington. farm loan plan was
written into the agricultural bill by
the house Monday night after long
and vigorous fight. The rural credits
amendment reported by the agricultur
al committee and generally accepted
as having the sanction of the admin.
istration was revised by series of
amendments which revolutionized the
proposal.
AS framed In the house, the plan
would provide for a system of farm
loan associations formed in individual
communities to make loans on farm
mortgage notes at not more than C
per cent interest. These associations
would form federal land banks In dis.
tricts corresponding to the present
federal reserve districts for the pur-
pose OF dealing In the mortgages held
by the association and loaning to the
association upon these mortgages. In
these banks the government would
have supervising and under certain
circumstances stockholding interest.
They would be authorized to issue
bonds based on their farm mortgage
securities.
The crux of the fight In the house
came on an amendment to authorize
the secretary of the treasury to issue
Panama canal or other government
bonds TO the amount OF $50.000.000 a
year to take over the bonds of these
land banks. The amendment was
adopted in committee OF the whole by
a vote of 157 to A..
The administration proposal was a
substitute for the McCumber direct
loan credits plan Incorporated In the
bill In the senate. II proposed a Sc
ries of farm loan associations with a
system OF land banks under private
ownership and control to handle the
loans through the sale of bonds to the
public.
BY vote OF 237 to SO the house
rejected the McCumber proposition
and then the perfected Bulkley-Hollis
amendment was agreed to without
roll call. The bill was sent to con-
ference.

MANY NEGRO DOLLS BEING

Nashville, Tenn.-An announce
ment was made by the National Ne
gro Doll Company that their rush
season, which it usually has during
the Christmas, is just now on. This
is occasioned, declares the manager
of the company, on account of the de-
lay in the importation of material
from which these dolls are made. The
ship was caught and held as a prize
of war and was only recently re-
leased, hence, the material did not
reach Nashville until Christmas day.
But the people, says the manager,
were so determined to have the size
doll they wanted that they all replied
1--WE will wait to get the big dolls"
While hundreds of small dolls were
sent out, the manager declares that
it was surprising to note that the peo-
pie wanted the dolls ranging in sizes
from SEVENTEEN to THIRTY
SIX inches. The orders are being
sent out rapidly Many of the
churches have sent in orders for dolls
that they might conduct their bazaars.
Dolls will be shipped throughout the
year, declares the manager of the
Doll Company, as we are ready to fill
orders as they come.
