PRESS FORWARD TO

London, Aug. 6.-holQlnS the
bridge heads at Warsaw over the
Vistula river, the most formidable
military obstacle in eastern Europe,
Germany and Austria Hungary, hav-
ing conquered the river line and with
it invaded Russian territory for an
average depth of 100 miles along a
front from the Baltic to Bukowina,
are now throwing their forces for
ward in an endeavor to accomplish
what Russia's allies have so feared
the complete development of the Rus
sian armies.
The British press, basing its spin
ions on Petrograd dispatches and the
lack Of reports to the contrary, is
inclined to the view that the forces
of Grand Duke Nicholas retired from
Warsaw virtually intact, but there is
an increasing disposition not to min
imize the seriousness of the situation
and the anxiety Of the quadruple
powers seems to be manifested in re-
newed pressure to bring the Balkan
states in line.
Quiescent Sweden is now restless,
and even so conservative newspa-
per as the London Morning Post
finds cause for comment in Sweden's
growing hostility to Russia as stimu-
lated by German success in Poland.
Whether the present Balkan nego-
tiations will be more fruitful than
were previous attempts to align these
states against Germany and Turkey
is debatable, especially so as to
Greece, according to an Athens dis
patch quoting Premier Gounaris, re-
fuses to consider the relinquishing
of any territory to Bulgaria, con-
cession which might clear the stu
alton.
Though still holding Hoyo Geor-
gievsk, the Russian garrison remains
at bay. Thus the Russian armies not
only are menaced back of the War
saw salient, from which it is as
sumed they were MT entirely clear
before heavy German forces broke
across the Vistula 10 the southeast
of Warsaw; but a arger and more
formidable envelopirg movement has
taken definite form being in effect
a greater pair of pncers aiming at
Dvinsk, in the north and at Brest-
Litovsk, in the solth and superim-
posed on a smaller pair seeking to
crush the Russian forces in and
around Warsaw.
There is the chance that the grip
of the smaller pair may not be eff
fective, and it will take some time to
demonstrate whether the more ambi-
tous movement succeeds.

wished by the Omaha Real Estate ex-
change At a meeting last Wednesday
the exchange authorized its president TO
appoint committee to work on the pos
sIbilities along this line. President
Thomas will take his time and select
committee.
The plan is that the committee shah
confer with the proper city authorities

the expense Of such project; with the
city attorney with regard to the method
to be pursued, and with whatever au-
thority 1t may be necessary TO confer

II il recognized by real estate men
that the narrowness OF Twenty-fourth
street is a drawback TO It's development.
II is also held by many that Twenty
fourth street is Inevitably TO be the main
business thoroughfare OF Greater Omaha.
w. II. Green in talk to the exchange
asserted that In twenty years or less
1wenty-fourth street is sure to be the
main retail business street of the city
He suggested that the exchange busy
itself at once in a movement looking
toward the widening OF the street.
George NJ. Morton contended that Green
wat on the right track. but that he would
go further and require the street TO be
:. wider than Green had suggested. Mr..
Norton praised the men who laid ON the
original plat OF Omaha, for he said they
planned better than they knew. He said
thoy lut 'rnde the downtown streets wide
enough :, the first place, for which the
present generation should be duly t'snk-

President Thomas said that for twenty
years he had been thinking of the PROJECT
OF widening Twenty-fourth street and he
believed II was high time to start.
II was pointed out that in any event
the street will have to be widened sooner
OF later as the center OF the city de-
velops more and more in that direction.
Attention was called 10 the fact that
the longer widening Is put off the more
difficult Il will be, since larger and larger
buildings will be built on the present
frontage, all of which will some day
have to be cut off or moved back to give
wider street space.

Joseph Hecker, OF near Broadacres,

arraigned before Justice Hayes Mon

was supposed to pe at church, but in
reality hiding in q bedroom, and the
rest OF the children were at the

er fired both barrels, the shot hitting
johnson in a hand and penetrating his
