GREAT BATTLE
IMMINENT ON

GERMAN ATTACK IN
CHAMPAGNE REFUSED
Greeks Turning Over Arms
and Ammunition to Allies
in Macedonia.

Indications point 10 an early re-
sumption OF operations on grand
scala in Belgium and France. If. in
deed, they have not already begun IN
Flanders and Champagne. A Slgni'
fIcant statement in the latest Berlin
official communication says that IN
Flanders and Champagne. the fight
ing activity has been revived at sew

Aside from this there Is no intor'
nation as to the exact state OF al

have made an attempt to recover
Pons, between Mont Blond and Mont
Carnillet, taken by the French. Mon

heavy casualties. To the northeast
around Craonne. heavy artillery duels
are being fought
The situation in Flanders IS even
more obscure. rs neither rehe-HrlIlsn

the German report Of the recon-
mencement of hostilities. Artillery
duels OF greatintensity are known TO

while 10 the south in France IN the
neighborhood of the Bapaume-Cam'
brai road the British troops have re-
sumed their trench raiding operations,
destroying German dugouts and TAX,

The Macedonian theatre also prom
ises early development on a large
scale. While along the line where
General Sarrail's forces are facing the
Teutonic allies near the Greco.Serb
border the reports show only artillery

Is still pouring men into Thessaly and
occupying important localities. An
other indication that the Greeks are
turning toward the Entente cause is
shown by the fact that considerable

AMSTERDAM. via London. June
19.-Vienna newspapers publish a
rumor that the Austrian premier,
Count Clam-Martinic has offered the
resignation Of the cabinet to the en-
peror owing to the decision Of the
Poles not to vote for the budget. The
emperor IS reported to have reserved
his decision. There is no official con
frmation Of the rumor.
COPENHAGEN. via London. June
1s.-The revolt of the Poles in the
Austrian parliament is described by
the Vienna correspondent Of the Fos'
|sische Zeitung as having produced a
crisis in which the position not only
OF Premier Clam-Martinic but also OF
Count Czarnin, the foreign minister Is
threatened.
= majority of the German papers
treat the news of the situation with
the great reserve and the government
organs In Vienna hold out hopes that
the crisis may be overcome by grant
ing a few ministerial posts to Polish
and other parliamentarians. The Vos
Sische Zeitung correspondent. how
ever. points out that the detection OF
the Poles is sufficient to turn the
scales against the government since
the rest Of the Slav bloc already is In
oposition. The Poles indicated the
seriousness of their intentions by a
decision to vote against the budget
being the first parliamentary group
Of any. belligerent country aside from
a handful Of extreme Socialists. In
refusing to vote war credit. The
insistence OF Premier Clam-Martinic
on Saturday that the Poles should i'm
demiately show their colors Is de-
scribed as due to the initiative OF
Count Czernin. who is unable to carry
on the foreign policy Of the govern
ment while uncertainty regarding the
attitude Of parliament continues.
The Polish Aspirations which re-
Gently have been indicated aim at
practically an independent Kingdom
openly on an anti,German basis and
have evoked marked displeasure in
Germany. even the Cologne Gazette
rebuking the Poles sharply.

Polish Deputy Dasztnski declared In
the Vienna Reichrath that more than
10000 Poles have been hanged by or

ing to the Vienna Arbeiter Zeitune
which prints special details Of the SIT,

the abominable treatment accorded

Germanist Deputy Heine shouted
They have not used the rope enough
all Of them ought to have been
hanged" At these words all Of the
Slav and Polish members rushed upon
Heine and the President was obliged
to suspend the sitting in the midst OF
