British, Italian Premiers
 Confer on Danzig Situation

LONDON, Aug. 23-David Lloyd George, Premier of England and Premier Giovanni Giolitti of Italy held two conferences yesterday over the Danzig and Adriatic situations, according to despatch to the Lon don Times from Lucerne, SwitZer- land.
 Italy's reply to the American note setting forth the position of the United States government in the Russian Polish crisis, also was dis cussed.
 Proposals were adopted by the two premiers, it is understood, for allied action to secure Poland unrestricted use of Danzig and it's communlca- tions in accordance with the Yer sailles treaty. The proposals will be submitted to France before being made public.
The Alaska daily empire., 1920-08-23

The Polish War Oflce today an nounced that more than 35,000 pris- oners have already been taken by the Poles and that more are pouring in steadily. Huge quantities of munitions also have fallen into the Polish forces hands.
 Thousands of Russians are thought to be cut off in the forests of the Danzig corridor awaiting an opportunity to surrender.
 Among the slain Reds at Mlawa, a German officer and several Ger man priyates were found indicating that some at least of the hundreds known to have crossed the East Prussian frontier when the Soviet army approached succeeded in join ing the latter's forces.
 Heavy fighting continued today around Ciechanow, northwest of Warsaw, where the Poles are at tempting to cut off two Russian divisions.
