Attacks by German Crown Princes Army Have Ceased and Fighting Con sists of Artillery Engage ments and SkirlniShes
BRITISH REFUSE
 GERMAN ATTACK
Reports, However, Are Con tradictOry, the Germans Saying It Was British Attack and Kaiser's Sol diers RepuIsing Force
[AssocIArEp PRESS DIspArcHl

LONDON. July II. - The check which the Russians imposed on the
 Archduke Joseph Ferdinand's army ! in Southern Poland and the addition 1 al sIain and worry this has placed
 on the German general, von Macken- | Isens army to the right has post 1 poned, it is believed in military cir
 cles, the threatened German often ! siye in the west, and it is there now possible that the allies will be the first to take the offensive In sup port of this it is pointed out that the attacks by the German crown 1 princes army in the Woevre. which 1 the German press announced was the Icommcncement of a general move forward have ceased. The fighting now going on along the western front consists of artillery engage Iments. and a few isolated attacks 1 land counter attacks by infantry which make little or no difference in i the positions of opening forces. ! The British. according to a French ireport, repulsed a German attack. { The German report. aludes to this as British attack and says it was Irepulsed with considerable loss. In | fact German and French reports are generally contradictory with respect 10 what fighting has taken place, but ! from the trend of them it is evil Ident that neither side has attempted | IanythinE of a decisive nature and it : is believed here il will be weeks be- fore they do.
 | Military observers assert the Ger mans are bound to carry out their offensive against the Russians until there is some decisive engagement
 such as the capture of the Lublin- Cholm railway. which it is asserted would be in their hands now if the Austrians advancing toward the city had not been driven back
 There are reports from neutral sources to the effect that the Ger
 mans are moving troops which were intended for the western front to the cast in order to make good their
 efforts against the Russians To
 certain extent this seems confirmed
 by a statement in the Russian of-
 ficial report that endorsements
 have reported to Archduke Joseph Ferdinand and that General von Mackensen has also commenced the offensive which however broke down 
 under Russian fire. While critics are undecided as to whether the Russians
 have made their stand on the pres
 ent lines or will fall back to the Rug river thus abandoning the fort resses of Ivangorod and Warsaw. it
 is agreed that the counter-attack which they developed has postponed for some time at least the necessity
 of any further retirement.
 There is no confirmation of the re- ported victory on the Corso plateau,
 but dispatches from Rome say the Italian troops are making good prog
 Tess in the work of capturing the mountains around Trieste which they
 hope to take before commencing ad- vances on the city itself, thus avoid
 ing the bombardment of the town which is largely inhabited by their compatriots

PREPARING TO ASK
 MANDAMUS WRIT
Claims to Be Assigned to Secretary Boyce of the Commission and Applica- ton to Be Filed Early This Week

Formal refusal to honor the claim of the state tax commission for five dol lars for postage stamps has been trans mitted to Secretary Jesse Boyce by State Auditor Callaghan In turning down the claim the auditor stated his reasons for so doing as follows:
 Phoenix, Ari1., July 10, 1915. MT. J. L. Royce. Secy.
 State Tax Commission,
 State House.
 Dear Sir
 With reference to general fund clam dated July for s, presented by you account of office expense of the state tax commission, the same is herewith returned for the reason that l am in doubt as to the existence of proper legislative appropriation and authority for this department to issue its warrants in payment of such claims.
 Yours very truly,
 J. C. CALLAGHAN
 State Auditor
 on receipt of the auditors letter, active steps were taken toward filing application for writ of mandamus to compel the payment of the claims of the various departments By agree meut all of these will be assigned to Jesse Boyce, secretary of the commis- sion. who will bring action in the courts tu obtain the payment of money under the new appropriation bill
 Whether the application will be filed in the supreme court or in the superior court of this county has not yet been determined. Attorney George J. Stone man. who with the attorney general is handling the case for the commission. stated last night. however. that some action would be taken early this week. According Co a ruling of the supreme court some time ago. that body has ex- elusive original Jurisdiction only in cas- es of disputes arising between coun- ties. In all other eases the supreme court has concurrent jurisdiction with the superior courts. In case it is de- cided to take the case into the supreme court, il is stated that a formal request 10 that body, asking it to take jurisdic- ton in the matter will be filed first.
 The auditors letter of refusal is considered of especial importance. as on 1t will he based the fight in the courts to compel payment of claims under the new appropriation bill. Since the veto of a large number of sections 'of the bill by the governor the state auditor has received legal opinions as to validity of those sec lions which the governor disapproved. from Attorney General Wiley E. Jones and George ? Bullard former attorney general The latter upheld the governors veto in all cases. on the ground that in disappearing the sections of the bill he was acting in legislative capacity. Bullard held that the governor had no right to veto the clauses repeating the statu- tory appropriations
