Behind Allied Lines in France. Sept.
.O.-(By MaiD.--The American soldier
is source of continual interest to the
troops Of the other nations with whom
he is fighting side by side and to the

vastly impressed by the wholehearted

On para de and or the march he regards
his work With the utmost seriousness
and every American column tina /

resolute faces very different from tn

Competition between railroads having
been eliminated, the freight is routed
by the line offering the most economical
route. The cars are loaded for thru

Fate of Caucasus
Most Tragic of All
Russsxn Provinces

1.-THE following Is one Of the new!
stories mailed by our correspondents
in Russia before they were compelled
to leave the country and one of the
few which have been permitted to
reach it's destination. 1t was more
than three months in transit. The

correspondence Associated Presss]
Moscow, June 20.-Of all sad situa
tions growing out of Russia's dismem :
berment, that in the Caucasus is most
tragic BY the terms of the BreSt-
Litovsk peace treaty Russia coded the
provinces Of Kars and Batoum to Tur-
key. But Caucasus. which is con-
rlomeration of races, mountain tribes,
and feuds. was as strongly opposed to
Turkish domination as 1t was to boil
shevik rule.
With the Armenian massacres still
fresh IN their memories the Caucasian
people refused to recognize the treaty
and united to fight TurSsh aggression.
Rrt they were weak and unorSanized
and could not withstand the onslaught
Of superior Turkish armies directed by
German commanders. Their position
was still further aggravated by per-
sistent propaganda of the bolsheviki,
who were anxious to rush all OPP
position and sowed dissension where
ever possible.
The hastily formed Independent
Trans Causasion republic soon
crumbled to pieces, Georgia alone, OF
all the component states. retaining a
semblance Of government and declar-
ing itself an Independent republic. The
newborn state was in no position to
fight the Turks single handed and was
compelled to negotiate with Turkey a
peace that virtually makes Georgia a
Turkish protectorate.
@"United Trans Caucasia has ceased
to exist" writes l. Tzeretelli, member
of the new Georgia government. THE
southern part of it, populated mostly
by Armenians, has been occupied by
the. Turks: eastern Trans Caucasia is
willing to recognize voluntarily the
power Of the sultan.
Georgia is all that was saved from
free Trans -caucasia that is not yet
anslaved by Turkey.
