issued today by the Russian war de-
partment. the Russians captured ten
officers and $50 rank and file. chiefly

airy Cossacks are turned toward the
railway center of Styrj. a town Of 30,-
900 Inhabitants, a junction Of the line
from Lemberg to Lawoczne and OF a
branch line to Chodorow.
Military writer's describing the de-
fensive say its chief strength is on the
east and northeast. but weaker on the
south. There is widespread expectation
Of an important counter attack on the
northern front.
In view of the reorganization Of the
Russian army on democratic basis the
provisional government has decided to
appoint to the staff of each army COM
mander a military commissioner Of the
government, to be selected after con-
sultation with the commander-in-chief
These commissioners will contribute to-

LETTER MAY URGE
FOOD BILL PROGRAM
President Is Expected to Give
His Views on Enactment of
Measure for Control.
CONSULTED BY SENATORS

President Wilson will write q letter to
Senator Martin, democratic leader Of
tho Senate. or perhaps to Senator
troll bill. setting forth his views of
what should be done about that meas
ure. 1t was reported today.
Failing this. the President may send
message to the Senate on the subject
of the food control bill. 1t is the hope
Of the administration leaders. who have
appealed to the President to help settle
tho vexed situation which has arisen
over this measure. that the President
will act soon.
Senator Martin and Senator Simmons
had conference with tho President in
the tangle in which 1t has become in
volved in the Senate, yesterday after
noon. They left him copies OF the food
control bill as amended by the Senate.
and tho Gore substitute which il fav-
ored by some Of the senators.
Against Gore Substitute.
1t is understood that the President ID
opposed to tho Gore substitute also on
the ground that it emasculates the food
control bill.
The only thing that appears to be at
all certain about the food control bill
today 10 that the Senate will vote on II
Saturday, July II. In the meantime q
desperate effort will be made to get the
measure into such shape that it will be
satisfactory.
Herbert C. Hoover, selected by the
President as food administrator, called
to see Senator Chamberlain at the Capi.
toll today to ask him about the parlia-
mentary situation in regard to the food
control bill
Mr.. Hoover is frankly opposed to the
Gore substitute, believing that it will
nullify the purposes Of the food-con-
troll measure. Senator Chamberlain
concurs in this view.
Conference With President.
While Senator Martin and Senator
Simmons have declined to discuss their
conference with the President. 1t il
understood that they told him that II
would be necessary to eliminate from
the operation Of the bill all the articles
which have been added in the Senate
including steel, wool, cotton. hides, etc
and to limit the measure to food, feeds
and fuel.
The prohibition section. with the
Smoot amendment. probably must re.
main in the bill. owing to the unani.
nous consent agreement under which
1t was adopted. and left to the confer.
ence between the two houses to settle
In the meantime the debate on thu
food control bill was continued today.
