five hundred rOOters from the Uni
yersty of Kansas will journey to Nor
man. okla. to cheer their football
team in its annual game with the
University Of oklahoma, october 30.
Announcement was made today that
negotiations were under way with the
shipping department Of the Atchisun,
Topeka & Santa Fee railway for three
cattle cars for the accommodation OF
the students, which, If obtained,
would enable each man to make the
trip at cost of about two dollars.
Otherwise, it is feared the expense
will prevent the enthusiasts from ac-
companying the team,
Coach Olcott said tonight that in
the face of such support he did not
see how Kansas could lose even

24-O victory over Missouri.

London Hears Russians
Have Gained Important
Territory.
SITUATION is SERIOUS
General Ivanoff Strikes
Hard and Drives the
Enemy Back.

LONDON, oct. 2O.--Battlcs south of
Riga, where the Germans have made
some progress In the new thrust at the
Baltic province port, and i'm No.hynia
and Galicia where the Russians have
gained important Victories are now
competing in interest with the opera
tions in the Balkans.
The Germans have concentrated
very large forces with great amount
of artillery south Of Riga and as re-
suit a stubborn battle has been III
progress for several days. Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg, who is in
command in this region, reported two
days ago that his forces had reached
the River Dvina but as on previous
occasions this broad and fast-running
waterway appears to have held him
up for the time being.
The situation, however is consid-
cred by the Russians to be more serl-
GUS than it had been for a long time
and there Is again talk of the evaCua-
ion of Riga bv the military who have
been in sole occupation of the city
since the civilian population left a
month ago.
Ivanoff Strikes Hard.
At the other end Of the eastern
front the position Is just the reverse
General Ivanoff, who has proved him
self to be the most aggressive Of the
Russian commanders, has been strik-
ng hard at the AustrO- German forces
on the middle Styr and all along the
fringe of Galicia that is still in Rus
stan hands.
At several places he has driven his
opponents back and there is a report
tonight that the Austrians have
evacuated Czernowitz-a report which
finds some confirmation In an Odessa
dispatch declaring that the Russians
have abandoned their contemplated
evacuation Of the northern districts OF
Bessarabia.
The progress Of events in Serbia Is
surrounded by considerable mystery
The Austro- Germans and Bulgarians
are advancing all along the various
fronts but not with the speed expected
The Austro-Germans apparently have
spread their armies over a wider front
as Berlin tonight reports that they
are advancing on Shabats which Is a
'ong distance west OF Belgrade while
for the Bulgarians 1t is claimed that
they have captured Sultan Tepe
southwest of Egri Palanka and that in
advancing toward Kumanovo they
took two thousand prisoners

sociated on the roads board Of diroc-
tors, whose trial on the charge Of
violating the Sherman antitrust law
began one week ago.
Standing before a government map
of the New England railroad system
with d long pointer In his hand, much
like u college professor delivering u
lecture to his pupils Mr.. Mellen spent
the last two hours Of the afternoon
session explaining the nature OF the
competitive railroad conditions at the
time, 20 years ago, when the New
Haven alleged conspiracy to control
the entire transportation traffic Of
the SIX states began. 1t was only the
preliminary part Of the lengthy story
which the government expects the
former railroad president to tell TO
the jury before the trial is over.
The former New Haven president
was greeted with every evidence Of
cordialty by the defendants william
Rock efeller was among several Of the
defendants who stepped forward to
converse with him.
Occupation, Farmer.
Mr.. Mellen gave his occupation as
"a farmer-an agriculturist." He
took up New England traffic condi-
tions as far back as 1890.
"Was the competition keen ?" asked
Frank L. swacker, the government
attorney.
II should say there was consider
able competition" replied the wit
ness" 1t was fairly lively"
Mr.. Mellen was preceded on the
stand by two present officials OF the
New Haven who Identified about two
thousand documentary exhibits sub
poenaed by the government from the
