the Vistula relative lull prevails.
North of the Borjimow Farm the
Germans were successful on January
% in capturing from us one of our
advanced trenches of secondary i'm
portance. On the 2ith, near the same
region, the Germans attempted an Of
fensive, and were successful in moving
forward, one by one, and capturing
another of their own trenches which
they had previously abandoned. But
as a result of our efficient fire they
were obliged to evacuate that trench,
which we seized.
On January "a our artillery checked
seriously the movements of their
troops along the front At one point
we captured, by means of our heavy
artillery fire, a trench OF the enemy,
together with machine guns.

jeschine, about five miles north OF

Shattered Foes.
PETROGRAD, Jan. 26.-The staff of the
Russian army of the Caucasus issues the
following official report from Tifiis:
Our offensive in the Transtschorokh
region continues, despite the obstinate de-
fense of the Turks. In the direction OF
Olti isolated engagements are reported
resulting from attempts of small Turkish
detachments to maintain their position.
On the remainder of the front the usual
cannonade is proceeding"
In the Transtschorokh region every
Turkish village has been turned into a
miniature fort. Guns are mounted before
stone huts and these little strongholds
fortified in every way possible.
In order TO increase their depleted ranks
the Turks have enrolled prisoners held in
the iails in Trebizond and Erzerum.

The German claim of victory at La
Bassee Is a direct contradiction of Paris
claims. Both Paris and Berlin agree,
however, that La Bassee is still held by
the Germans, setting at rest rumors that
the city was recaptured by the British
last week.

night. "They are careful of whom :Aey

"You have a fne army Of 100000
men, but what would you do L should
send 100000 against you?"
Each of us would have to shoot

And this, said General Wood, is the

to produce.
And this is what he expects Of these

1t will be hard work, work that only
rugged constitutions will weather, but
applicants have been carefully inves-
tigated by officers at Governors Island
and they are assured that the greater
number will accomplish all required of
them.
In the four weeks work more will be
attempted than is covered in months Of
an ordinary training camp. Physical
work is only a part OF the routine
When this phase of a days toll is COM

u. S. Ignores Mexican
Border COunterfeiters
From The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Aug. Tips that
counterfeiters are working along the
Mexican border, in Texas, Arizona,
New Mexico and California, making
limitations of the currency issued by
the Carranza and Villa "mints." are
ignored by the Secret Service head
quarters, it was admitted at the Treas
ury Department to-day.
The department pointed out that, so
long as the United States government
recognizes none of the Mexican fac
tions, there can be no legal Mexican
currency, from the viewpoint of the
United States.
The best protection possible is af-
forded by the Secret Service, not only
against counterfeiting of United States
currency, but against counterfeiting
Of the money of any government rec
ognized by the United States, so that
when some faction in Mexico is finally
recognized, the money issued by that
faction may be counterfeited Only so
long as its makers are able to elude
the Secret Service men.

President to Hurry
Back to Washington

Cornish, y. H., Aug. 7.-President
Wilson, it became known tonight, is
planning to return to Washington, to
get in personal touch with the Mexican
situation, diplomatic exchanges with
Great Britain and Germany, and other
pressing official business. In ordinary
conditions the President has found 1t
possible to direct the different execu-
tive departments from the summer
White House" here, but in the last few
days so many problems demanding
quick action have developed that he
feels he should go to Washington. 1t
is probable he will be back in the WHITE
House before the end of next week.
Soon after his return TO Washington
the President will discuss with Secre-
tary Lansing and other officials the
next step in his Mexican policy. He
will talk over with Secretary Redfield
