Scores when Answer Goes
as Record.

INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. 20.-Today's
session marked the beginning of the
third week Of the election conspiracy

ed him money to go out and vote. Be-
fore Special Pros. Roach could inter
pose an objection. Clark had answered
No" and the question and answer be-

duced to give testimony regarding the

Cooperating in their efforts to sur

Hindenburg and Prince Leopold OF
Bavaria, have won further marked
successes, the German general staff re-
ported today. The armies of both the
German leaders are driving forward,
Won Hindenburg on the Russians
north flank, where he has reached the
Djedniki-Holjane line, and Prince Leo
pold on the south, where he is ap-
preaching the Myschanka district az
ter reaching DwOrzec.
North OF Wilma, on the kOVnO-
Dvinsk railway, Won Htndenburg has
forced the Russians to retreat at NovO
AIeIandrovsk. In the lighting in this
district the Germans took $50 prison
ers"
Todays report mentions the Servian
front Cor the first time in seven
months, stating that heavy artillery
has been silenced.
BERLIN, Sept. 2O.-While Berlin
gave itself up TO rejoicing today over
the capture OF the Russian strong
hold OF wilma, military experts pre-
dicteG the early capture of the Rus
sian army OF a quarter OF million
men that has been trapped by the
Teutonic forces in the railway tri-
angle whose points are bounded by
Wilma. Ida and Molodetschno.
A complete German victory in that
region. together with the shattering
of the Russians third line of defense,
is declared to be only a matter of
days.

greatest battles yet fought IN the east
ern theater-is raging east of Wilma
where the forces of Gen. Won Eich-
horn. Gen. Won Scholtz and Gen. Won
Gallwitz are engaged. These armies

Won Hindenburg are cooperating with

ma means not only another retirement
for the Russians in Poland. but also
the separation of the Russian north
ern armies from the southern forces.
Would Relieve Pressure.
Although the Russians have achiev-
ed some local successes in the Vol
hynian triangle, on the Galician from
tier operations there are regarded as
Of secondary importance. Another
great German victory IL Poland would
relieve the Russian pressure on the
Gaician frontier and already the Rus
slams on the Strypa river, in Galicia,
have been fought TO a standstill by
the AustrO-Hungarian forces.
The capture OF Dvinsk and the re-
tirement OF the Russians from their

classes may be held and thus relieve
the crowded conditions.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2O.-Imme-
diate recognition of the CarranZa
provisional government, if it meets
the demands agreed on at Saturdays
conference in New York, is certain
from the United States, Argentina.
Uruguay. Bolivia and probably Chile.
Guatemala and Brazil are expected to
hold back for a short time, accord
ing to the best information obtainable
here today.
1t developed today that at Satur-
days conference in New York the
fight for the recognition of CarranZa
was led by Ambassador Naon of Ar
gentina. He expects to go home with
in very short time to fix his fences
to become the candidate of the rad
ical party of Argentina for the presi-
dency.
And he was very anxious that no
precedent be afforded for any attack
on him as favoring interference in
the internal affairs of a sister repub-
lie. So well did he argue the case
that it is known Sec'y Lansing with
drew the objections he had to Car
rama and agreed that, if he shall
show that he actually controls the
territory he claims, he shall be recog-
nized very soon, probably after the
next meeting of the cOnfeTes in this
city within three weeks.
Guatemala was unalterably opposed
to recognition and the Brazilian am
bassador was inclined not to favor it
although he said Brazil might act
later if convinced it was the best
move.
Meanwhile it is expected that there
will be severe fighting in northern
Mexico. Villas advisers in this city
already have sent him word that his
cause here is becoming shaky.
