NICHOLAS REPORT
DOES NOT AGREE
On Western Front French,
With Belgians' Aid, AT
tack Enemy Lines.

I ONDON, Juno 1i.-GO:22 p. M
Il Today Germany claimed another
decided success along the eastern line,
Northwest of Mosciska in the region
OF Sieniawa, the German report said
that along line extending over forty
three miles the entire positions of the
Russians were taken and 5000 pris
Oners fell into their hands.
The Russian official report, how
ever only mentioned the locality where
this action Is said to have taken place
in n paragraph which declared that
the Austro- Germans after heavy losses
in the region Of Mosciska Friday and
Saturday did not resume the offensive
Tccording to Petrograd the AustrO-
Germans have made another crossing
of the Dnicster, where brilliant cav
airy charge at Zale SZc2yky resulted in
local Russian success, but no claim
is made that the invaders were pushed
back across the river. A crossing OF
the river at this place may not be a
serious affair for the Russians as II
is remote from Lemberg and an ad-
vance from II might expose the Aus
German flank.
French Continue Assault.
on the western front the French
continue their battering tactics against
formidable German positions with
some assistance from the 'Belgians
who have thrown battalion across
the User to the east bank where
south OF the DiXmude railway bridge
they destroyed a German blOCkhousc
They claim that they have retained
this position despite German counter
attacks.
Berlin claims that the French suf
fered a severe defeat on the from
north of Souche2 and Paris admits the
loss Of German trenches previously
captured in that sector.
The full returns of the Greek elec
tions are not yet available, but the trl
umph of NJ Venizclos, former premier
seems certain. The continued illness
OF the Greek king may prevent th'
victory of the war party from having
any immediate results

Mr Howard also relied upon the
record to show Franks innocence. He
declared that the trail Of the murderer
led from the murder notes" found

In opening his argument Mr. How

Counsel for Defendants
Says FuIlam Hampers
With Testimony.
THREATS TO MIDDIES
Testimony Tends to Show
Offices Were Entered to
Get Exam Papers.

A NNAPOLIS, June IA virtual
IN charge Of tampering with the
evidence Of witnesses before the
court Of inquiry investigating irregu-
larities in examination papers at the
naval academy was made today
against Admiral Fullam, superintend-
ent Of the academy, by Congressman
James Hay, Of counsel, for seven Of
the midsnIpmen, defendants
Mr.. Hay said that in view of the
evidence given by Midshipman c. O..
Ward and w j. Heath 'and almost
every other midshipman who has ap-
peared on the stand that they have
been taken to the Office of the super
intendent and either the superin-
tendent or his aide has told them that
if they take a certain position in this
case what would happen to them, 1t
seems to me and my associates that
that is tampering with the evidence
of the witnesses who are summoned
by this court"
After considering Mr. Hays request
behind closed doors for nearly an
hour, Capt. Robert L. Russell, presi-
dent of the court, announced he had
directed a letter to the superintend-
ent, saying
Leave Witnesses Alone.
at is requested that prior to the
completion of their testimony before
the court and prior to their being
regularly designated as defendants,
witnesses and possible defendants
summoned through the superintend-
ent's office be not instructed at any
time or place as to the possible sta
tus in which they will be placed by
virtue Of any action they might take
as witnesses or defendants"
Further testimony was offered to-
day tending to support the suspicious
of the naval academy authorities that
the offices Of three departments had
been entered Just prior to the last
annual examinations.
