Two witnesses were heard before adjourn ment on the point of the availability of the poison to her.

AUSTR|ANS ARE
 LOSING HEAVILY ON TWOFRONT
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 In a Russian attack over rront of 25 miles, extending eastward from Kolomea in Galicia, the Austrians nave been compelled to retire on a part of the front in the region of Kolomca and southward. The Aus trians valiantly attempted to hold back the on-coming Russians, but according to Vienna, Emperor Francis Joseph's warriors finally were com forces.
 In this fighting and also In battles near Kuty. in Bukowina, the Aus trians suffered heavy casualties. In addition. 221 officers and 1e,2S5 men were taken prisoner and heavy guns, machine guns and stores were lost. The Russian successes in this region seemingly gives them almost free ac- cess % the Carpathian passes and to the railway line running northwest from Kolomea to Lemberg, the cap ital of Galicia.
 On the central part of the Russian ! front in Voihynia, the violent battles around Lihewlza and in the region or So;lul continues unabated. Farther north the Germans have followed ! heavy bomhardments of various posi- tions with infantry attacks, which i Petrograd says were all repulsed.
 The Germans again have made an effort to win French positions west | of hill No. 304. northwest of Nerdun after a bombardment extending from the hill to the Avocourt woods. The i curtain of fire Of the French and the fire of their infantry put down the attack. however. intense bonn | bardments continue northeast of Yer dun around Fieury and the Vaux. 1 Chapitre and Chenois woods. The British along their part of the front in France and Belgium are keep ing up their heavy bombardment of German trenches and sending out raiding parties who are reported to he doing effective work, inflicting more or less casualties on the Ger mans and bringing back prisoners. The guns of the British have done much damage to German trenches at many points. according to London. Tn the Austro- Italian theater. the
 Italians in the Trentino region are still driving back the Austriars and recapturing important positions taken
 from them iE the recent Austrian of fensiVe. The Italians also have opened a big offensive against the Austrians
 on the eastern front around Monte San Michele. San Mart;nO. Here,
 however. according to Vienna. the
 Italians are being partly repulsed by
 Austrian counter-attacks.

Garcia Promises Help

FL PASO, June 29.-General George Bell, Jr., commanding the Fl Paso mill tary district said tonight that he re- quested Andres Garcia, Mexican consul here, several days ago to cooperate with him in having the bodies of the American troopers killed at Carrizal removed to the United States for burial. Consul Garcia replied, General Bell said, that he would do everything in his power, but that authority for such removal would have to be ob tained from General Trevino. Arrange ments are being made whereby the twenty-one bodies believed to be on the Mexican battlefield, will be brought to the border at the expense of the Ameri- can government, it was said.

 SAN ANTONIO, June 29.-Any de- lay incident to new negotiations with General Carranza will be of inestim- able benefit to the United States should the course of events cause a general clash between the United States and forces of the de facto government, ac- cording to army officers here. No sim lar> advantage would accrue to the Mexican forces, according to those in close touch with the intelligence de- partment of the army.
 This advantage would consist not only of permitting the release for active service of the 35,000 regulars guarding the border by substitution of national guardsmen, but in the concentration of supplies for big campaign, the mobil- ization of transport facilities and the rehabilitation of the flying arm of the service.
 General Bell at Fl Paso reported to- night to General Funston that the twenty three American prisoners taken by the Mexicans at Carrizal had been turned over to him. He gave no de- tails of the stories told by the prisoners however.
 News that General Trevino had oc- cupied Santa Clara, Namiquipa and Las Cruces and was concentrating large forces south of Fl Valle caused no anxiety for the safety of General Pcrshings column. The same was true &f the report that 10000 Mexican troops had been assembled at Guzman, in close proximity to the northern sec ton of Pershing's lire of communica- ton.

WASHINGTON June 29.-The W ashngton government still awaited tonight full compliance with it's de- mands by the de facto authorities though the release today by General
 Carranzas order of the American prisoners taken at Carrizal has avert cd the probability of immediate re- ta'iatory steps. It is possible that it has also helped 70 pave the way to- ward an attempt at peaceful settle ment of the whole border situation. High officials made it very clear. however. that the vital point at is- sue-she future attitude of Mexican forces toward American troops in northern Mexico engaged in guard ing the border and pursuing bandits who raided American territory-re- mains to be settled
