the great drive from Cracow eastward
Great numbers Of German troops were
sent in to assist the Austrians, as well
as a vast amount of feld-artillery. The
use of artillery by the Teutonic allies
has been described by correspondents
as on a scale never before undertaken.
Its effectiveness was relatively in
creased by the shortage Of shells on the
part Of the Russians, which is believed
to have contributed largely to the weak
ening Of their resistance.

Austria has reclaimed virtually the

Since the Spaniards first set foot In
Mexico the Yaquis have never been
conquered. They have rebelled against
all authority. colonial or national, and

by Mexican troops in their attacks
upon the Yaquis only further prove
the fighting qualities and fierce deter

1t is doubtful that Governor Mayto-

ARREST OF BOMB THRoWER IN
NEW YORK CITY PREVENTS

Murder Of Rockefeller, Carnegie ana
Other Flnanciers, Destruction OF
the Homes of Wealthy and At

New York.-The discovery of an
anarchistic plot involving the assas-
sination of Andrew Carnegie, Corne-
Illus Vanderbilt, John ID. Rockefeller
and his son and other wealthy men.
and the organization of a reign OF ter
ror and looting in this city, was an
nounced by the police Tuesday after
they had arrested, under dramatic cir
cumstances, a man who had just plac-
ed two bombs in st. Patrick's cathe-
dral, where several hundred persons
were worshipping. The sensational
development was the climax OF
months of work by detectives in un-
covering conspiracy which, they de-
clare, projected the opening of a cam.
paign of violence and bloodshed with.
out precedent In New York City.
So carefully had the police worked
out their plans that the anarchist was
even allowed to light the fuse OF one
of the bombs which he carried into
the cathedral. despite the fact thai
the explosives were powerful enough
to have damaged the edifice and pos
sibly killed many in it.
Frank Abarno was the name givel
by the man who placed the bombs II
the cathedral. Later Charles Car
bone, IS years old, was arrested q
his home as the actual manufacture
of the explosives. Others were impl
Gated in the plot, in the belief OF tn
police, and more arrests are expecte
in the near future. Both Abarno an
Carbone late Tuesday, the police RI
ported, admitted their part in the col
spiracy, the carrying out of which wa
to have begun with the attempted d.
struction of the cathedral.

ACCEPTS AMERICAN PLAN.
Germany Is Willing to Modify Sub
marine Operations.

Berlin--In it's reply to the Ameri.
can note concerning the German ma,
val war zone, the German govern
ment agrees that under certain coll
ditions it's submarines will halt and
investigate merchantmen and will
proceed against only such vessels as
are found to be carrying contraband
or to be owned in nations hostile to
Germany.
The reply declares Germany's
readiness to accept virtually all Of the
American proposals except the one
which would restrict the use of an.
chored mines to purely defensive pur.
poses. The German government ex-
presses the belief that belligerents
cannot afford to abandon entirely the
use of anchored mines for offensive
operations. 1t is willing to consider
the abandonment of floating mines.

Sea Of Mud in France Prevents Exten

ing the Advantage in Des-

The Russians are claiming decided
successes in their encounter with the
Germans. while from German sources
comes the news that the Germans are
making substantial gains in their at
tack upon the Russians.
The highest Importance is attached
! by the Russian military authorities to
the alleged German defeat at Przas
nysz 1t is asserted by the Russian
staff officers that the Germans hope
of success during their operations OF
the last fortnight along the northern
front was based upon their confidence
in breaking the Russian line at Przas-
nysz. This attempt by the Germans
to strengthen the position of their left
wing, which was an important part OF
their plan for a gigantic encompassing
movement extending from Angus
toswo to eastern Galicia is ST. ID by the
Russian leaders to have failed def
niteiy.
The Russians assert that the retire
ment of the Germans in the north is
more precipitate and disorderly than
any previous retreat in this thealer or
the war. They state that the Germans
have abandoned large numbers of
left behind slightly wounded soldiers
( in an effort to execute hasty re-
treat. This condition Of affairs, &C
cording to the Russian viewpoint, as
sumes added significance from the
;. fact that the Germans are said to
have employed some of their best
troops in this fighting. There are
many indications that the Germans
were entirely confident of success.
. AS to the situation in France, the
reports from German sources are tina
