 OF DRAFT CONSPIRACY
(By Review Leased Wire)

NEW YORK, June 21.-The jury in the case of Owen Cattell and Charles F. Phillips, former Columbia Universi- ty students, charged with conspiring 10 obstruct the operation of the selec- tive draft law, returned a verdict of guilty in federal district court tonight.
 The jury deliberated five hours and recommended mercy in announcing the verdict. A motion to have the yer dict set aside on the ground that the finding was not in accordance with the testimony was made by Morris Hill quit, attorney for the young men. Judge Mayer announced he would hear arguments on the motion next Friday.
 In summing up Hillquit tried to i'm press the jury with the importance of the fact that the leaflet opposing reg istration had been written by the de- fendants before President Wilson had signed the selective draft law May IS. The lawyer contended it had been seized before the youths had an op- portunity to revise it. He urged it was not intended to be published.
 Harold A. Content, assistant United States attorney. told the jury that an acquittal would be tantament to an invitation to repeat the offense.

 ARE HELD TO ANSWER
By Review Leased wire)

NEW YORK, June 21.-Emma Gold man and Alexander Berkman, called the two leading anarchists of this country, were indicted here today by federal grand jury on charges of conspiracy to induce young men not to register. They pleaded not guilty and were held in s25,000 bail each.
 The indictment is based on articles signed by the defendants printed in the publications styled Mother Earth and The Blast"
 Their counsel complained to Judge Mayer surety companies refused to furnish bonds for all persons accused by the government on matters bearing on the war As neither of the pris- oners has been able to furnish bonds of $25,000 since their arrest counsel pleaded for a reduction of bail. which was denied. The court ruled the trial must proceed next Wednesday. The prisoners were taken back to the Tombs.
 Late today Miss Goldman's attor- neys procured s25,O0O in cash for her bail and she was released. Berkman, however. was unable to supply a satis- factory bond and was returned to the Tombs.

FRENCH, IN VIGOROUS COUNTER
 ATTACK, DRIVE GERMANS BACK

The big German offensive against the French line east of Vauxaillon. Monday. in which trenches were stormed and captured has gone all most for naught, for the French forces in a violent counter offensive had re- gained nearly all their lost ground Tuesday night.
 Although the German crown prince had launched his attack with huge ef- fectives. composed of picked troops. and covered it by heavy artillery fire and by bomb dropping aircraft, his tenure of the captured positions was short lived and only a salient 400 meters northeast of the Noisy farm are in his hands. In additions, heavy casualties were inflicted on the Ger mans. who left many dead on the field of battle.
 Likewise in Champagne the crown prince has been badly battered be- tween Mont Carnillet and Mont Blond. In an attempt to recapture positions previously taken from them, the Ger mans first were repulsed by the French. who then assumed the offen- sive and advanced their line on a

 Comparative calm prevails on the front in France held by the British troops under Field Marshal Hoig Ar tillery duels are in progress on var ious sectors in Belgium. especially near Dixmude and Pypegaale.
 In the Russian theatre. according to the Berlin war office. the Russian of fensives and the AustrO-German ar tillery has increased in activity in Volrynia and Galicia. At several points the Russians have attempted to carry out raids against the TeutOnic fronts. but are said to have been ev- ervwhere repulsed.
 Daily the situation in Russia seems Co grow brighter. Unofficial advices from Petrograd say that the congress of soldiers and workmen's deleeates of all Russia have voted confidence in he provisional government and gone on record as demanding a re-organiza- ton of the army and immediate re- commencement of hostilities against the Teutonic allies.

 WASHINGTON, June 21-Persistent demonstrations against the women suffrage pickets in front of the gates of the white house cleared difficult situation tonight The police guard ed the women, censored their riot-in- citing banners, and met with such sue cess that when the treasury and the state. war and navy buildings turned out their 10000 employees to pass along Pennsylvania avenue there was not a ripple of hostility.
 Reserves from half a dozen pre- cincts patrolled the pavement in front of the presidents mansion and kept the crowd moving.
 The activity of the police. who ar rived too late to prevent banners from being demolished yesterday as the Russian mission was approaching the white house, and twice today, appar- ently solved the problem growing out of President Wilson's refusal to make martyrs" of the women by ordering them removed.

from its wooden frame a canvas sign similar to the one used yesterday de- claring to the Russian mission that President Wilson and Elihu Root. the special ambassador, are deceiving Russia. Later at the lunch hour a much larger crowd led by Mrs. D. w. Richardson, a Washington woman, destroyed every one of the four ban ners displayed by the so-called senti- nels before the gates.
 In both cases the crowds were good natured and although a sufficient force was used to snatch the banner away, none of the bearers was injured. Mrs. Richardson was taken in charge by the police but was later released.
 Tonight just before the departments closed the suffragists appeared with a new banner bearing a quotation from President Wilson's war speech to congress.
 During the afternoon when the chowds were hurrying home President Wilson left the house for an automo- bile ride. His car pissed through side gate and he got out almost un- observed.
