POLES BEING
DRIVEN BACK
Russian Reds Sweep Across
Land, Taking Advantage of
Rice Harvest.
BY The Associated Press.

BY The Associated Press.
WARSAW. July 19:-The Poles
are being driven from the south and
southwest of Liga, which is being
occupied by bolsheviki in their drive
in the direction of Grodno.
This bolshevik sweep across Lith-
uania is giving soviet forces pos
session of rich harvest as they are
occupying thousands of acres, the
grain and hay now standing in
stacks. The Polish population is
fleeing before the bolshevik onrush,
the peasants crowding the roads
with livestock and vehicles loaded
with household goods. The food in
warehouses at Bielostok, stored
there for the children who are fed
by the American Relief Association,
is being loaded on cars for shipment
to a safer place. The refugees in
this region are also being removed
as a precautionary measure.
1t is said in Polish quarters that
the retreat on the northern front is
being continued in a northerly way
according to plans. The Poles, 1t
is declared, lost little rolling stock
and not a single working locomo-
tive.
1t is at Liga that the railway
gauge changes from the Russian
broad gauge to the standard width.
Occupation of Liga by the bolshe-
Wiki is reported in a communique
issued by the war Office.
In southern Polesia the bolsheyiki
drove out Polish mountaineers and
occupied Babrowica.
Strong bolshevik attacks have
been repulsed around Husiatyn and
Arzomanic and in the region of
Dubno.
The bolsheviki are reported to
be re-grouping for drive on Ko-
vel (about seventy-five miles south
east of Brest-Litovsk.)

SAY NO SCANDAL CAUSED
PRINCE JOACHIM'S SUICIDE


BERLIN, July 19-Friends of
Prince Joachim. of Hohenzollern,
denied stories current here that
his suicide Sunday was brought
about by scandal. They said that
aside from his marital disappoint-
ments the prince was acutely en-
barrassed through his restricted A.
nances. Like his brothers he is
believed to be sadly in need of
funds. He is also reported to have
been brooding over the ultimate
fate of the former royal house and
the criticism to which his father
had been subjected in Germany.
BY those close to the Hohenzol-
lerns when the family was in pow
er, Prince Joachim is declared to
be the favorite son of the former
German empress and fears are ex-
pressed that the news of his suicide
may have a fatal effect on her, as
she recently suffered an acute attack
of heart trouble.
