With the American Army ON the
Aisne- Marne Front, Aug. 2.-Every

UKRAINE BURNS
WITH HATE FOR
HUN USURPERS
Peasants With Army of 25,005
Resist German Seizure of
Harvest Yield
BY associated Press

Stockholm. Aug. 2.-Conditions in
the Ukraine before the assassination
of Field Marshal Won Eickscrn We're
such as might have been expected
to lead up to some such outbreak of
violence, judging from the descrip-
tion given of them by Zeta Hoeglung,
leader of the Swedish Socialist Left,
in an interview in the Politiken, of
Copenhagen.
Hoeglund, who gave the interview
before the Eichhorn assassination,
had Just returned from a visit to
Russia, and his account is largely a
report of conversations which he had
with Russians from Ukraine. They
declared, ne says, that the Germans
there were living in little hades,"
that guerilla warfare constantly was
in progress, conflicts occurring daily
in which may persons were killed,
while occasional battles took place,
lasting several days.
The peasants in one section of the
Ukraine have an army estimated to
number $4,000, Hoeglund reports.
These men he describes as filled with
hatred for the Germans and await
ing an auspicous moment to begin
hostilities. The peasants elsewhere
pursue the policy of burning their
grain and destroying their cattle and
acting similarly with regard to other
of their possessions rather than have
them fall in hands of the Germans
The eastern troops in the country
are declared to be at dagger's point
with the Germans and to have sup
piled the peasants with arms, in
cluding artillery.
Hoeglund's informants considered
the disturbances that had occurred
to be only a forecast of what might
be expected at harvest time, when
the peasants. it was predicted, would
do every thing possible to prevent
the Germans from securing their
crops.

JAPAN JOINS
ALLIESNSWIFT
AID FOR SIBERIA
President Visits Cabinet Bu-
reaus; Confers Seriously
With Polk
By Assoefatcd Prets

Washington, Aug. 2.-Joint action
between Japan, the Entente Powers
and America in Siberia is assured.
Japan has found acceptable the
American proposal which primarily
looks to the aid of the Czecho-Slo-
vaks, now operating in Siberia, and
atter exchanges between Toxic and
Washington, which have cleared M
all doubtful points and removed any
possibility of future misunderstanding
a complete agreement has been
reached. The plan of operation will
be put into execution at once.
Soon after it had been learned
that Japan had accepted the Ameri-
can proposal, President Wilson
Walked to the State, War and Navy
building where he conferred for half
an hour with Acting Secretary Polk
and Secretary Baker in the War Sec
retary's office
The.t President and Mr.. Polk left
the ONCE together and as they walk
ed along the corridor had a very
serious conversation which was con.
unued, for five minutes in front of
Mr.. Folks office before the President
returned to the White House.
The international agreement must
find its expression in combined milf
tary activity. Gable advices have
recorded the gathering of small bod
les of Entente troops at points in
China convenient for dispatch into
western Siberia.
Pao Kuci Ching, the provisional
governor at Sci Lung King, has been
selected to command the consider
able body of Chinese troops which
have been gathered in Manchurio
and 1T is understood that already II
has been arranged that this force
shalk operate in conjunction with
Japanese and that it will act under
the direction of the japanese COM
mander in chief.
