 OVER HOTEL PROPERTY

Yesterday Deputy Marshal Bright well served papers in a replevin action on tine proprietors of the Cor dova House. The suit is instituted by Walter Story, owner of the building formerly known as the MacCormac Hotel, and up to May lst last under lease to the Rainier Grand Co.
 The dispute is over the meaning of the terms of the lease which ram originally to s. o. Freedman. the Rainier Grand Co, being sub lessees. The original lease provided that all furniture put in the building should become the property of the owner on the termination of the lease. The lease from Freedman to the Rainier Grand Co. did not have that proviso, but the plaintiff claims they were bound by the terms of Breedman's lease as well as Freedman. Certain hotel property had been removed from the MacCormac hotel when the lessees gave up the building, and placed in the Cordoya House. The marshal was busy yesterday and today taking pos session of this property which has been stored in the lobby of the Story building

VICTORIA IF A M AbANDONSN.W.
 LE A C J [

VICTORIA, B. C., June 17.-Joshua Bingham, president of the Victoria Club of the Northwestern Baseball League surrendered his franchise yes terday. The players were notified of the magnate's action last night and the team was disbanded Business has not been good this summer in Victoria because of the general depression caused by the war. Kingham has been losing money since the first of the with his players; told them of his financial condition, and asked them to accept a reduction in salary. The president of the club believed that if the players would agree to his proposi- tion, that he would be able to go through the season, and pay the re duced salaries. The men refused to stand for any less pay. feeling thay their work was worth all they could get for it. and saying that they ex- pected Kingham to abide by his con tracts. The difference of opinion be- tween the club and the owner did not initiate for the success of the team, and they have lost the last ten straight games. Paying his good money on a team that could not win a game was too much for Kingham, and he threw up the sponge. The whole schedule of the league is dis organized by the action of the Vic toria team, and the owners of the other teams in the league have agreed to take over the players, and attempt to carry out the schedule. It is pos. sible that the team may be put in a new coast city, although the chances are that it will be kept in Victoria.

HEAVY GERMAN OFFENSIVE
 ATTEMPT CRUSH RUSSIANS

BERLIN, June 17-The ofiical German state ment issued this morning says that the divisions of the army along the Rawka river west of Warsaw have taken the offensive against the enemy and are attacking the trenches of the Russian army along the entire line in this region The statement indi- cates that the entire German and Austrian forces along the eastern front from Poland, through Gallcla to Bukowina is about to undertake gigantic offensive movement.

The sale of the road will be valid when made as the attorneys employed by the government would see to that This last suit does not attack the title in any way but is nothing more less than a con troversy between the interested parties over which of them is entitled to the money which the govern ment will pay.
 The $l,150,000 to be paid for the road is the prize which the litigants fighting for, and the government officials were not interested in the out of the suit, the court would probably appoint a receiver to take the money when paid over, whose duty it would be to hold it until the case was decided when distribution would be made under

Although the legal diff cultes which the bondhoders creating for them selves the source of much interest to the people here, particularly the allegations in the complaint relating to the large sums that August Heckscher is to get for negotiating the sale, yet the authorities are looking on the matter only as it interests them generally, and do not feel alarmed over any pOss bility of loss to the government.

He cites the present European war as a striking example in support of his theory, as it was the big military equipments on the continent that made the nations feel they nvincible, and therefore eager to fight, and thereby prove it.
 He said that the doctrine of preparedness resulted always in the general spread of the false philosophy that might makes right. In regard to

Trouble to Ranch Owners.

Brownsville, Tex, Aug. 9.-With
the expectation that United States
Soldiers sent to Norias ranch last
night would relieve the situation
there caused by the attack Of Mexi-
can bandits, border officials today
turned their attention to reports that
300 Mexicans had crossed the border
into Hidalgo county, Texas, in small
parties and apparently were making
their way to concentration point.
Unusual precautions have been taken
by peace officers and ranch owners
to prevent outbreaks.
Details of the fight at Norlas ranch
were awited with interest Owing
to the isolated nature of the country
there and the fact that the bandits
cut all telephone wires from the
ranch only meagre reports had been
received early today. These esti-
mated the attacking force of Mexi-
cans as numbering from SO to 200
men.
Fourteen ranchmen, later rein
forced by detachment of United
States soldiers and Texas rangers,
repelled the attacks of the outlaws,
who left several of their number dead
when they finally retreated south
ward. Five Americans, three of
them soldiers, were wounded.
All passenger trains were stopped

PROPOSALS FOR PEACE
Russia Will Not Trade Galicia
For Poland.
STRUGGLE TO CONTINUE.
Germany Preparing to Sweep Serbia
Out of the Path Between Turkey
and AuStria-HungaIy.

London, Aug. 9.-Russia having
rejected what in England is regarded
as bona fide proposal made by the
German Emperor, for peace with n
part of Poland traded for Galicia,
the great struggle in the east must
continue and as there is no indication
of an immediate general offensive in
the west, the struggle of the Russian
forces to shake themselves free of
the Austro-German grip remains the
chief factor in the war news.
The operations in the Dardanelles
will be closely watched because of
their possible bearing on the Balkan
situation again simmering by reason
Of renewed quadruple entente pres
sure on Bulgaria and Greece. Never
before has the Importance OF these
operations been more keenly realized
in Great Britain and France than
now, especially as there are many in
dications that Germany plans to de-
liver her next hard blow against
Serbia in order to link up with
Turkey.
1t is increasingly manifest that
Germany looks to the east for
settlement of the war. BY over
running Serbia she would occupy a
very favorable strategetic position to
invoke Bulgaria's aid in reaching
Constantinople along the main line.
The expectations Of such a move
doubtless has brought about renew
ed negotiations between the entente
allies and Bulgaria.
The Turks claim successes in the
recent trench warfare on the CALI
poll peninsula but there has been no
noteworthy change in the situation.
The Austro-Germans continue to
make progress to the northeast and
to the southeast OF Warsaw and the
Austro-Hungarians claim to have
cut in two the Russian forces which
retreated after losing the Lublin-
Chelm railroad
