hard to secure the success of the bond
issue, but they themselves declined to

RUSS FRONT PIERCED
GERMANS CLOSING TRAP IN MOVE
TO SMASH RUSSIAN ARMY.
Two-Thlrds of the Kaiser's Army
Thrown Into Great Battle
in the East

London, July 2e-North and south
the Germans have pierced the Russian
front, according to dispatches from
Berlin and Vienna, and the millions
of Won Hindenburg and the other mil
lions under Won Mackensen are smash
ing forward to close the gap behind
Warsaw and trap, crush and destroy
the greater portion of the Russian
armies.
On front of more than 400 miles,
in campaign unparalleled in history
for daring and startling maneuvers
and the colossal number of men en-
gagged, Teuton and Slav are at death
grips More than 100000 are re-
ported fighting on both sides. No less
than two thirds of the Germans under
arms have been thrown into this east
ern battle, according to the estimates
of military experts, while practically
the entire strength of Austria Hungary
has been added to the Armageddon on
which hangs the fate Of nations.
The long maturing plans of Won
Hindenburg, the Prussian military
genius. which it has been predicted
will startle the world. are in process
of quick development. Leading his
own legions, he has split and Broken
the Russian front south of Przasnycz,
and hurting his armies forward on the
heels of the rapidly retreating Slavs,
has extended his advance until it ap-
proaches the banks of the Narew.
Meanwhile in the south, the armies
under Won Mackensen which for the
last two weeks have been shifting
front and apparently were inactive, be-
gan massive movement against the
Lublin-Cholm railway in concert with
Hindenburg's northern drive and
breaking the Russian front near Kras
nostav, "a miles south of Lublin, are
sweeping in tremendous strength
against the railroad upon which the
grand duke depends for his supplies.

U. S. URGED TO ACT
GERMANY ASKS NEW EFFORT TO
END STARVATION POLICY.
Secretary Of State Lansing Declines
Again to Sound Great Britain
on Subject.

Washington, July 19.-In an inter-
view here, to which considerable i'm
portance had been attached, Count
von Bernstorff, the German ambassa-
dor, found Secretary Lansing unre-
sponsive to suggestion that the Uni
ted States undertake again to ap-
proach Great Britain with view of
effecting an arrangement under the
terms of which the British embargo
on shipments of supplies of all kinds
to German ports and the German sub
marine warfare on unarmed merchant
ships would be discontinued.
Beyond the suggestion that the
United States again undertake to
bring about a modus vivendi that
would bind Great Britain to suspend
what the German government terms
'England's starvation policy" and bind
Germany to discontinue the sinking of
merchant ships before an opportunity
was given to enable their passengers
and crews to reach places of safety
nothing was said by the German en-
voy, according to the best information
obtainable, to change the understand
ing of the United States on Germany's
attitude as made known in the latest
note of the Berlin government.
AS matters stand the response of
this government will be based on Ger
many's unwiIlingness to concede that
she is bound by the established rule
of international law that merchant
vessel, no matter what its status,
shall not be sent to the bottom by a
German submarine until after the re-
quirement of visit and search has
been complied with and passengers
and crew have been afforded time to
reach place of safety.
