Immediately preceded the peace nego-

yesterday informed the department
the revolutionists had agreed to dis
arm, occurred in the interior of Quay

strongly entrenched and concealed in
a position which prevented advance
artillery fire. The enemy outpost
opened the firing, Admiral Caperton
stated.
The fight reported today was the
fourth between United States marines
and revolutionists in about a week.
Officials believe that the complete re-
suit of the revolutionists in the last
encounter influenced their leaders to
agree to disarmament.

Paris, July e.-The Anglo French
offensive in Picardy has entered an
other day of substantial progress, out
standing features of which were the
resumption of the French advance
north of the Somme and the capture
of German second positions there.
Complete preparations have been
made quietly in this section virtually
unhindered by the Germans while the
French forces south of the river
pulled up level and got thorough
grip on the Germans second line
trenches. This was accomplished by
the election of the Germans from
part of the Estrees they still held
and capture of their communications
between Estrees and Bellowy The
northern troops then emerged from
their trenches and dashed forward a
good mile.
The Germans second positions had
been so demolished by artillery that
they were unable to make a strong
resistance except at the village of
Hem which had been strongly forti-
fled. Here the attacking troops met
desperate opposition Each house

of hard fighting the village was won

Letchitzky's Army Menaces
Lemberg and Eastern Galicia.
SLAVS DRUNK WITH SUCCESS
Allies Believe Central Powers

Russian Munition Shortage

BY WILLIAM PHILIP sIsIMs.

Petrograd, July 6.-At least half
million Austrian troops have been
killed, captured or badly wounded
since General Brusiloff began his
sweep through volyhana, Galicia and
Bukowina. That number will be un-
available for the summer and fall
campaigns of the central powers. Cen
eraI Letchitzky's advance in south
eastern Galicia, after the capture of
Kolmea has been so rapid that his
army not only menaces the important
cities of Stanislau, but Lemberg and
the whole of eastern Galicia. The
right wing of the Austro-German army
is under heavy pressure.

Russian soldiers in high spirits over
their continued successes and the al

development of the operations leads
to the belief that events are impend-

the French and Italian fronts and
probably the outcome of the Austro-
Italian war in the Trentino. Along
the entire front the Russians are feel

HUNT LAKE OF OIL
Boring VIII Begin Near Hayti,
No., at Early Date.
Earth Has Been Disturbed
There for a Century.

Extensive prospecting for oil will
soon begin at Hayti, Mo-, where, in
1S11-12, there were earthquakes so Sc
we're that the effects are still visible
for it is now believed that great
underground lake of oil may be the
cause of the disturbances which
are sometimes now slightly felt
Such was story brought to
Topeka today by James Ericsson, q
Kansas City oil and gas man. Options
have been taken on several hundred
acres of land. and the International
Oil company is undertaking the work.
Plans have been made to sink a we'll
'2 900 feet deep.
Since the earthquake of 1S11-12 the
earth near Hayti has never been en-
tirely at rest From that time a long
line of minor disturbances have con-
tinued until the present DAY. The
cause of the tremors has never been
seriously sought. until well known
biologists advanced the oil theory
Many of the lakes and deep chasms
were produced, according to old
stories, by the bursting of the earth,
which rose in great undulations and
discharged vast volumes of water
sand and "coaly matter as high as
the tops of the trees. There are also
certain localities that show oozing oil
floating on the water. and it IS these
underground secrets that the pros
l'RNtAhS company POA POSCo " SApAOIS-
Scientists contend that it is not pos
sible to conceive of a shock originat-
ing in soft deposits, being transmitted
to the hard rock, and thence across
the Appalachians to the Atlantic coast
on the east, and across the central
coal basin to Chicago, Detroit and to
Canada. The fact that the shocks
were strongly felt at these localities
seems to point conclusively, it is
thought, to a deep-seated origin in
rigid rocks, and. considering all the
indications is likely to he the move
ment of some gigantic subterranean
lake of oil.
Work will be started on the we'll as
soon as the machinery is ready. Elk
perts, have long reported indications OF
oil in abundance here. so the expIo-
ration will serve the dual purpose OF
determining whether or not the oil
will be profitable, and also throw
light upon the cause of the convul-
sions of nature that rent the earth
100 years ago.
