Achieve In Part One 'of Their Main Objects In As iastic Turkey; Union with British Fighting Turks on Tigris.
TRepublican A. p. Leased wireJ

The Russians have achieved in part one of their main objects in Asiatic Turkey-the joining of hands with their British allies fighting against the Turks on the Tigris river.
 Coincident with the arrival comes a report that the Turks have evacu- ated Bethaiessa, their advanced posi- tion on the right bank of the Tigris and also have lost to the British their Dujailam redoubt.
 Around Verdun the fighting be- tween the French and the Germans continues with great violence. A French first line trench and slopes on the west of Le Mort Homme have been captured by the Germans, while the French have taken two trenches on the road from Esnes to Haucourt Berlin reports that more than 1900 French were taken prisoners and that sixteen machine guns and eight can non were captured in the region of Le Mort Homme.
 Northeast of the fortress the French | have taken from the Germans the Haudremont quarries and captured eighty prisoners and four machine guns. On the remainder of the front
 the fighting has consisted mainly of I artillery duels and numerous air com | bats.
 | The latest German offical report
 dated Saturday and presumably re- 1 ferring to fighting of the previous
 day, records additional progress of the Austrian army against the Italians in southern Tyroll.
 Except for German attempts at of fensives against the Russians in the llloukst region and north of Lak. llsen, which was repulsed, there have
 been onlp artillery duels on the Rus
 sian front

 lts have dropped bombs on Cairo

Decide on Base

COLUMBUS. N. NJ, May 21.-Re- ports reaching here tonight that sup plies and rations are being moved hack fifteen miles north from Nami- quipa and camp being established gave rise to belief that the most advanced base of General Pershing's $ expeditionary column for the coming rainy season has been decided upon.
 The undesirability of the present camp site at Namiquipa is believed to have brought the decision. Nearly all of the ten motor truck companies now operating are now in the interior hauling the immense quantities of re- serve supplies concentrated in the field to the new location. Motor truC kmen reported that the trucks have been in use so constantly that several of them haze caught fire from overloaded engines and burned. ! Pa!ed hay and grain in large quan- l titles for horses is being sent forward | hy truck train. Such reserve of ra- tions has been piled up at the sub
 bases that none has been shipped l from Columbus in the past forty eigh | hours.

May 21.-The so-called worldly amuse- ments" and their relation to members of the Methodist Episcopal church probably will overshadow in import ance the majority of the proposals to be presented to the general conference during the fourth week of the quad rennial session. which begins to- morrow.
 Two definite propositions will be submitted, one from the majority of the committee on the state of the church which favors the retention of the present prohibition against card playing. dancing and theater going and another from the minority of tn, same committee. which will ask that the paragraph be eliminated and that the position of the church as opposed to these amusements be made clear by other means.
 The rules of the church now pro- vide expulsion as d penalty for mem bers who engage in these diversions It is claimed that this is not enforced by any pastor though previous at tempts to change have always failed
 The advisability of continuing tn publication of all the periodicals nov issued under church auspices will b debated early in the week.

from Mexican soil They stop when ever the Americans halt and hide or disarm if General Pershing men ap- proach them.
 Two suppositions are prevalent re- garding the identity of these men. One is that they are CarranZistas trying tO give the American movement the appearance of a retreat. The other is that they are bandits, seeking to an- noy the Americans by shipping. The latter conjecture is the more favored.
 This is the first intimation received recently that American soldiers were stationed sc far to the south. All re- ports have placed their southernmost point at Namiquipa. which is a consid- erablc distance to the north of Temo- sachic, from which it is also separated | by s range of the Sierra Madres.

RUSSIAN FORGE JOINS BRITISH
 ON THE T|GR|S

 LONDON, May 21.-A force of Rus sian cavalry has joined the British ar my on the Tigris in Mesopotamia.
 An official communication issued to- night concerning the situation along the Tigris follows
 General Lake reports that on the nineteenth, the enemy vacated Beth alessa advanced positions on the right bank of the Tigris. General Gorringe following up the enemy, attacked and carried the Dujallam redoubt The en- emy is still holding the Sannayyat po- sition or the left bank of the river.
 "A force of Russian cavalry has ioine.i Generai Gorringe after d bold and adventurous ride"
 The first news of the operations on the Tigris since the fall of Kut FL Amara, sent today by Lieutenant Gen. eral Sir Percy Lake, commander of the British forces in Aiescpotamia. all though 1t shows that the Turks are still holding the Sannayyat position on the left bank of the Tigris, where the British check made it impossible to carry out the relief of General Town shend, brings the welcome but aston istirg intelligence that body of Rus sian cavalry. after an adventurous ride has succeeded in joining General Cor ringe's forces on the south bank of the | Tigris.
 How this important junction was ef- fectsd is still unknown. and the story will be awaited with Intense interest 1 The supposition is that this detach- ment came from the regular army which is threatening Khanikai but il still ren ains q puzzle where and how 1 the Russians succeeded in crossing fh, llver.
 Their sudden appearance with Gen eral GCrringe also has raised the ques
 tIGn whether the Russians have al ready cut the Bagdad railway at Mo Sul In any case, the appearance O
