Russia to Hunt Down
Men Described as More
Dangerous Than Enemy
BY .Assoeiatea Press


New York, July 25. - Information
that the Russian provisional govern
ment has decided to terminate the ap-
parent pro-German activities of Nj
kolai Lenine. the radical Socialist
leader, by arresring him and many
of his followers, has reached the Rus
sian Information Bureau here. These
advices indicate Lenlne probably will
be shot if he is convicted as a spy
working in the interest of Germany,
but that if not convicted, he will be
isolated during the war. This last
measure. is explained here, would be
adopted as a precaution against the
presence of a "a crazy man in poll
tics at this crisis"
So far as information received by
the bureau shows no evidence has
been uncovered in Petrograd to con-
firm the statements duplicating Len
inc as an agent OF the German gen
eral staff, although the provisional
governments present ation
to take him into custody leads Rus
slams here to suspect that the gov
ernment may know he has been guilty
of taking German gold.
1t is explained that the pro-
visional government, anxious to
avoid any accusation of interfer-
ence with freedom of speech or of the
press, has heretofore hesitated to ar
rest Lenine, but his activities reach
ed the point where the officials de-
termined not to tolerate them any
longer. regarding them as more
dangerous for Russia and her lib
erty than the German armies with

Leaders Who Demoralized
Russian Army Arrested
by Order of Kerensky
Ru Assncinted PrcsS

Petrograd, July 25.-The present
line of the southwestern front is
approximately that occupied after
General Brussilon's drive last sum-
mer, except before Tarnopol. where
the enemy succeeded in pushing fur
ther into Russian territory. The
fate of the latter town was virtually
decided with the Germans holding
the suburb just across the Sereth
river within easy gun range.
The Germans chose the junction
point of the Seventh and Eleventh
armies for beginning their offensive,
the first blow being struck between
Zboroff and Pebako on a twenty
mile front. Without great effort,
as is admitted in the Russian official
communications, they pursued their
advance to the line of the Sereth.
This uncovering of the Russian po-
sitions south of Tarnopol forced a
retirement all along the diagonal
line southwestward, cutting the
Strypa and Zlota Lipa to Halicz and
the Lomnica. The Russians have
been obliged TO retire to the right
bank of the latter river and Halicz
is seriouslp threatened, with a pros
pect of further retirement to the

CHICAGo's 100000 FARMS

Chicagos determination to help
feed herself as her bit" in meet
ing the crisis of the war has result
ed in the planting of 100000 back
yard and vacant lot gardens within
the city limits. Even before Pres
ident Wilson issued his appeal to the
American people to increase their
production of food, Chicago had
taken the initial steps which result
ed in one of the most remarkable
movements of it's kind on record
anywhere. This is the record of the
Chicago Garden Bureau:
Between April l and tie end of
May, 5000 acres, or approximately
one-fourth of the entire vacant land
in the city, had been planted to
vegetables. To accomplish this re-
suit over three hundred garden
meetings were held. which were at
tended by seventy thousand people;
395, 900 pieces of literature pertain
ing to gardens were distributed,
seed at wholesale price was provid-
ed for 1000 persons, and twenty
four tractors and fifty teams were
kept busy, day and night, plowing
the ground. The enormous demand
for gardens is shown by the fact
that during that period fully 10000
people called at the bureau to secure
assistance in procuring ground, and
to buy seeds or to have their ground
plowed.
During the next three weeks meet
ings were held in each of the three
hundred public schools, and thirty
thousand pupils enlisted in the
movement. Meetings were held in
churches, club rooms, private homes,
empty store buildings, and even on
vacant lots. Some OF the lectures
were delivered in six or seven diff
ferent languages. Pastors of 1900
churches preached sermons on gar
dens.
This publicity had the desired ef-
feet Applications for vacant lots
began to flow in upon the bureau at
the rate of two hundred a day. rap
idly increasing to one thousand
daily. Every days mail brought
hundreds of applications, - The

Teuton Guns Play Havoc
on Demoralized Russian
Troops, Who Flee Madly

Copenhagen, July 25.-Semioffi-
cial German reports describes as a
striking panorama the retreat of the
Russian armies in Galicia. Retiring
columns stretching to the horizon
can plainly be observed from nu-
merous vantage points. The retreat
occasionally degenerates into a full
rout, particularly under the influ-
ence of the Austro- German field
guns which are abreast the infantry
vanguards and dash forward to a
hill where they pour a demoralizing
fire into the masses crowded in the
roads. Additional quantities of mu-
nitions, provisions and six heavy
guns were captured.
Another report says that airplanes
heavilp bombarded the station at
Monastersyska and the new road
for the Russian troops south of the
point from which regular communi-
cation has been severed.

Arrest Man Charged

When Detective Hyde Speese found

automobile in the hills of Cumber-

confessed.
The automobile was stolen late Sat
urdaY night and found over an en-

passing autoist had accepted a story
about the hard luck of a smashup and
brought Shaffer another man whose
name the police have not learned, and
two girls to Camp Hill, the authorities

One of the first results has been
a general agitation for the restora-
ton of the death penalty for insub-
ordination in the army and for trea-
