MILDRED REFUSES
$l25,000 OFFERED
IN DIVORCE CASE
Tender by Chaplin Attorneys
Not Sufficient to Soothe
Feelings of Wife.


Los Angeles, Aug. 27.--One hum
dred and twenty-five thousand dol
lars, it became known here today, is
not sufficient to appease the feelings
of'Mildred Harris Chaplin. The Of
fer was scorned by her attorneys.
who are said to have instructed the
film actress TO avoid meeting her
husband or anyone representing him.
The $l25.000 which Mrs. Chaplin is
said to have refused would repre-
sent, according to attorneys, final
settlement of community property.
As an inducement to accept, it is
said, Chaplin offered to make no at
tempt to evade service of divorce
papers.
The film comedian is now reported
on his way to New York, in the hope
OF meeting his wife and adjusting
their difficulties.
In her divorce complaint Mrs.
Chaplin stated the community prop
erty was valued at $l,000,000. Soon
after the filing of the complaint Mrs.
Chaplin had issued a restraining or
der against her husband disposing of
any such property.
Chaplin is said to have instructed
his representatives to close the Chap
lin studio for a year. This would
indicate he does not intend to accu-
mulate any more property, half of
which would go to his wife.
In the meantime, until Chaplin can
be served with the papers, his wife's
divorce suit is at a standstill.

selves outside the White Star line
pier to await the arrival of the Bal

was removed by British naval ves-

The archbishop was not permitted

During the lunch hour the long.

TROTzKY IS NOW
IN FULL CHARGE
OF RED FORCES
General TuchatscheWski, 80.
Wet Napoleon" Relieved
Due to His Failure to
Capture Warsaw.

Warsaw, Aug. 27.-General Tu-
chatschewski, known as the soviet
Napoleon has been relieved of his
post as commander-in of the
bolshevik army on the Polish front
because of his failure to take War
saw. according to information given
to the press here.
Leon Trotzky, bolshevik minister,
OF war and marine. has personally
taken command OF tie army, it is re-
ported by bolsheviki officers who
have been taken prisoners.
General Is Nobleman.
General Tuchatschewski has had
a remarkable career in the Russian
army. He is of noble birth, and at
the outbreak of the world war was
captured by the Germans. Later he
escaped and resumed his place in
the army, rising to the rank OF
lieutenant. When the soviet gov
ernment was established he was pro-
NOTED and rose to high command,
being credited with the defeat of Ad-
miral Kolchak in Siberia and Gener-
al Denikine in southern Russia. He
is only % years old.
Russian soviet troops who took re-
fuge in Prussia are fighting the
Poles along the frontier, An official
statement issued just before last
midnight says that two soviet bat
teries, hauled into Prussia by the re-
treating Russians, fired upon the
Poles, and that the soviet forces are
also using machine guns against the
Poles on this sector Polish troops
who have reached the frontier have
been cautioned by their commanders
not to fire upon German territory.
Lull in Fighting.
While there has been lull i'll the
fighting on various sectors, the Poles
advanced at several places Thurs
day and have reached the region OF
Kobrin, approximately 2S miles
northeast of Brest-Litovsk, where
the Poles. in surprise attack, took
l,l00 prisoners, four guns and the
entire staff of the 57th soviet di-
vision.
In continuation of the long drawn
out campaign to capture Lemberg,
the soviet forces have reached lad
worze, just east of Lemberg, where
the Poles have repulsed repeated at
tacks.
Peace Meet May End.
The Warsaw press is becoming
pessimistic regarding the Minsk
peace negotiations. The newspa-
pers, with the exception of the So
cialist press, express the belief that
the moment is propitious to "liqul-
date boIshevism."
In some political circles there are
indications of an increasing feeling
that the negotiations may come to
nothing, although there have been
f7cial announcement to the con-
trary.
The 'militarists are advancing a
continuance of the war to compel
the soviets to seek terms, and the
change in the Danzig situation has
lad a tendency to encourage the
| nlilitarlSt elements.
The national democrats are in
s..sting on convocation Of the Diet
and as result the speaker of that
body has called meeting of the
party leaders for the purpose of de-
Gliding the date for the assembling
of the Diet. The democrats take
the stand that it is impossible to
conclude peace without the author
ity of the Diet.
