Description OF WrangeI.
Like nearly all Russian officers, Gen
Wrangel has his hair clipped short
Ior summer comfort, and this accen-
tuates the length of his slender, SEN
sitlve face. He wears his mustache
cut extremely short. and his alert
biue eyes alone mark him as an eff

even taller in the skirted gray Co.'S

beited tight at his slight waist and
ornamented with horizontal rows of
ivory cartridge cases across his chest
When standing he typifies action
and despite his extreme slenderness
carries himself very erect. He talks
French and Russian with equal fuen-
cy and greets visitors with such a
manner that they understand the con-
fdence placed in his judgment by the
south Russians.
Gen. Wrangers plan to give the
peasants title to the land conditioned
on the payment of one-ffth the an
nual crop for twenty-five years to
the government which will fix the

Russian forces commanded by Gen
Baron Wrangel have captured the
important city Of Novorossisk, the
Black sea terminus of the railroad
leading eastward to Ekaterinodar, in
the province of Kuban, and have en-
tered the Donetz basin coal district,
north of the River Don. according
to announcement here. In the latter
region the local population is said to
be joining Gen. Wrangel's forces, and
control Of the coal mines there will,
it seems, be secured soon by the
South Russian government.
Gen. Wrangel today announced
plans for the reorganization Of his
forces into two armies and one in
corps. The first army will
hold the northeastern front, and will
be commanded by Gen. Gutepow,
whose headquarters will be at Melit-
opol. The second army will operate
in the province of Kuban. and will
be led by the famous Monaghan Gen.

announced later. The Independent

the first step made in preparing for
the cooperation of all Cossack forces.
for which Gen. Wrangel will arrange
during his forthcoming visit to

Believe Future Of League
Secure.

Geneva.-The first meeting of the
Assembly Of the League of Nations
closed. in burst Of eloquence after
passing through one of the fullest days
Of its existence in rather agitated
and not always clear, debate.
In farewell speeches Paul Hymans,
president of the Assembly, and Dr>
Giuseppe Motta, president of Switzcr-
land, told the delegates the first AS
sembly had proved the League was
living organism and a success. The
opinion expressed by the delegates
who have participated most actively in
the work of the Assembly is that it
has done all that could be expected of
it, il not more.
A number of pet projects have met
with disaster; yet there are few, if
any, delegates who remained for the
entire Assembly that will leave dis
satisfied with the work Of that body.
The final day was marked by an
other encounter between the English
delegates and the representatives of
the British Dominions. Lord Robert
Cecil, acting for South Africa, and
C.J. D0herty for Canada, provoked an
aggressive and significant declaration
by Arthur. J. Belfour 20 the effect that
if the Assembly adopted any recon-
mendations concerning mandates he
and his successor on the League COun.
Gil would pay no attention to them.
Lord Robert Cecil and Mr.. Doherty
criticised the Council for holding back
information about mandates and sup.
ported the recommendations of the
Mandates Committee, the most impor-
tant Of which were that the Assembly
express the opinion that the resources
of the territories under mandate
should net be exploited by the man
datories of their own profit or for the
profit OF the Allies and that the re-
cruit;ng of troops should not be al
lowed in such territories.
The recommendation were adopted
unaniomously, Mr. Balfour contenting
himself by saying they would have no
effect. instead of voting against them.
