FORMER WRCNG-DOINGS
 OF ALFREDO coccHI. Unfaithfu to Bride He Had Entieed to Come to America.

Bologna, Italy, June 25.-The police authorities have brought to light the following details concerning Alfredo Cocchi
 When Cocchi left Italy for the United States he was in love with Maria Magrina, 8 servant in the Coc- chi family, according to the police. Shortly after his arrival in New York, Cocchi, they say, wrote her that busi- ness was going well and promising to marry her immediately if she would come to the United. States.
 Despite the hesitation of her rela- tives. the girl insisted on going to New York. She was accompanied by a woman friend. A few weeks after her arrival, still according to the police. Cocehi's bride wrote home. charging Cocchi with unfaithfulness. She re- ported that the husband of a woman with whom he had been going had had Cocchi arrested but that the man later obtained COcchfs release when he gave a promise to reform.
 Cocchi was upbraided by his own relatives and those of his wife for failure to mend his ways. He wrote home humble confessions of his wrong doings, but urged his people to try to induce his wife to be less jealous of him. He even suggested that they come to the United States and endeavor to restore peace in his family.

progress on several sectors of the front between Soissons and Rheims by the French and Germans. Apparently the Germans. following their ill success Of last week, when they suffered heavy casualties in attacks and gained only slight advantages, have ceased, for the moment, at least, their infantry opera tions, as the latest French official communica ton makes no mention Of fresh thrusts by the crown prince. The badly battered town of Rheims continues to be a target for German shells, 1900 of them having been dropped there during Monday.
 The fighting activity along the Rus sian front has again extended into the Carpathians around Kir1ibaba, on the Bukowina frontier. In Galicia, be- tween ZIota Lipa and Narayuvka rks+ CTS. and along the upper Stripa, the fighting between the Austro-Ge and Russians is described by Berlin as lively"
 The operations in the Austro- Italian theatre have again lost their intensity. The artillery duels have died down to almost nothing, while the infantry en- counters are merely reconnaissances.
 A similar condition prevails in Macedonia. although the artillery duels are somewhat violent in the region of Monastir.

RUSSIAN MISSION EXPLAINS
 DISSOLUTION or DUMA.
No Hostility Between the Councils and
 Other Parts of Government.

Washington, June 25-The dissolu- ton of the duma and the council of empire. urged by the Pan Russian con- ference of workmen's mad soldiers councils was explained by members Of the Russian mission -lere today as merely another step in the building up of a new government in Russia. It does not indicate the slightest hostili- ty it was said, between the councils and the other parts of the govern ment
 The duma, it was explained. ceased to exist when. after it's dissolution by the czar and it's later extra ordinary sessions, it created out of itself the provisional government To this gov ernment it entrusted complete legisla- tive, executive and judicial powers and with it's birth the duma itself was dis solved. Since then it has met only once for a decenniaI ceremonial and has had absolutely no part in the-gov- ernment.
 The council of empire was even less representative than the duma, it was stated, as it was composed of ap- pointees of the czar selected from va rious classes, such as capital educa- tion, agriculture and former ministers. Ever since the revolution most of the members of the council have remained at home on their estates.
 Special Ambassador Bakhmetieff of the mission will address the senate to- morrow with special reference to the foreign relations of the new provision al Russian government. It is under stood to be the purpose of the new government to announce broad princi- ples of diplomacy under which the present war should be conducted with out going into great detail as to their specific application.
