ATTACKERS oUSrFLANKED

Tien Tsin, July 11.-A wireless diS- patch received from Pekine this eve hing says that following an initial success in which Gen. Wu Pei-fu was driven back at Kas-Fei-Tien tahout fifty miles southwest of Peking), a brigade of Wu Pei-fus troops out flanked the attacking forces in the direction of Men-Tou- Kou and hit the Anfu on three sides, pushing them to- ward LIu-Li-Ho. It is reported that the commander of the first frontier division was killed.
 Out of the mass of conflicting re- ports it appears evident that Wu pei-Fu is maintaining his advantage south of the capital and that his troops have advanced slightly north of Llu-Li-Ho, which is about twenty-five miles south west of Peking.
 The operations around Lofa. on the railway midway between Peking and Tien Tsin, are alleged to be favorable Chi-Jui.
 In reply to a protest by the diplo- matic representatives, the minister of communications has assured them that the Tien Tsin railway line will not be cut
 Two trains from Picking arrived last night. The passengers report that the Anfu troops are evacuating Yang Tsun. They also say that students who had been in prison since January for Japanese demonstrations were re- leased internationally yesterday. Tha prices of rice and other foodstuffs are rising in Peking.

 DEFEATED, RETIRE Troops Refuse to Continue Operations Following
 Serious Reverses
By Associated Prew

Pekin, July 1S,-The latest reports re- ceived here indicate that the forces of General Yuan Chi-Jui met with a serious reverse to the south and that approxi- mately 1000 of his troops retired toward the capitol and camped Saturday night outside the west wall, refusing to con- tinue their operations It is stated that the men had been for three days with out food. The gates of the city were closed early Saturday and heavy guards prevented the entry of the troops while plans were being made to feed them.
 On the Tien-Tsn line the troops of Tnan Chi-Ju have been driven back toward Chang -Chuan.
 It is reported that ten train loads of General Chang Tso Lin's troops have ar rived at Pei-Tang north of Tien-Tsin.
 Chang Tso-Lin recently served notice on the Chinese government that he pur- posed to head an expedition to occupy Pekin because General Yuan Chi-Jui had melted the brigands in Manchuria

 FOLLOWING REVOLT
Trainload of Refugees, In- cluding Former Cabinet Ministers, Expected
 at Africa
By Associated Press

Santiago, Chile, July 17.-Advices re- ceived here today announce the ex- pected arrival at Africa Sunday of a including the former ministers of finance, of foreign relations. as well as other prominent members of the regime re- gently overthrown by the revolution in that country
 The newspapers announce that a Chilean battleship and a part of the other units of the Chilean fleet have arrived at Africa.
 The public press continues absorbed with discussion of the possible effect of the Bolivian revolt in Chilean rela- tions in connection with the Littoral question as a result of the republicans coming into power. The Mercurio re- marks obscurely that the situation it. cures of provision. It is presumed the revolutionaries will try as soon as pos sible to get Congress to give consti : tutional form to their acts and only
  national policy of their new powers"
 The morning papers give prominence to declarations by Joe Escalier. tn } Bolivian republican chief, who is now Fen route from Buenos Aaires to La Paz, in which he comments on the treaty signed in 1905 between Bolivia and Chile, Escalier is quoted as saying that Bolivia, having ceded Antofagasta un- der this treaty. the republican party hopes the closing in of Bolivia by the treaty cannot be definite, because in ternational pacts embodying injustices must necessarily suffer equitable modi- fications in consulting justice and the permanent interests of the peoples"
 Although the possibility of counter action by the deportees has been re- ported, as far as known here there is no information upon which to base such expectations.
 It appears, moreover, that the Bo- livian army has been entirely affected by the revolution.

 The storm ceased with the playing Of '"The Marseilleaise" and "The Star Spangled Banner" As the ceremony began a ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and fell across the village of Chateau Thierry lying below.
 M Lefevre paid a tribute to the American soldiers who, he said, brought their youth, their enthusiasm and their bravery to the aid of France and gave toke nof American friendship in blood.
 What the French called "Fronco- American ceremony began this morning with visit of M. Lefevre to the Amer ican cemetery in Belleau Wood, where 4000 American dead lie. The minister Of war there placed bronze palm at the foot of the flagstaff which flies the American flag. Ambassador Wal lace thanked the minister in the name of the United States. 1t was sim pie, bu. reverential tribute. which was witnessed by a small group of nota- bles surrounded by peasants who-were headed by Mayor Emile Barbier of the village of Belleau.
 Ambassador Wallace in an address said in part:

 Tt is with solemn pride, inexpres- sionable in words, that I recall what they did here for America, for France and for the world. and my hand rises in salute to the living and the dead as their dauntless spirits seem to pass before me upon the very field of their olo

BATTLES RACING IN COUNTLESS PLACES

War Exists From Black Sea to Dead Sea-Pales- tine, Syria, Galicia and
 AnatOla In Ferment
By Associated Press


 Constantinople, July 15.-The prediction of disinterested statesmen that the pro- posed peace treaty with Turkey appor- tionng the choicest parts of the Turk ish empire among the various European powers would Balkanize the entire Levant seemingly has been realized. War exists today from the Black Sea to the Dead Sea. the Turks and Arabs being engaged in fighting with the British, French and Greeks in almost countless places.
 Palestine. Syria, Clicia. Anatolia and Thrace are in religious ferment. The Mo- hammedans are massacreing or deporting Greeks and Aremnians The Christians ar retaliatng wherever they are strong enough to do so
 The Russian Bolsheviki are taking a hand through their contact in the Cau- caucas with the Tartars, connecting the Asiatic struggle with their battlefront from the Baltic to the Black Sea and stirring the Moslem world to greater re- sistance, by promising additional con- tact with Soviet Russia, through Rr- mania and Bulgaria. The Bolsheviki de- clare they will subjugate these latter countries as soon as they have attended to Poland. They plan in this way 10 thwart possible domination of Turkey by Great Britain though support of Gre clan aspirations.
  ed in their most hideous forms, refig- ious and race prejudices and international battles for commercial advantages in Turkey and for fuel oil appear in the swirl of which Constantinople Is the centre Even the Russians here, who hitherto apparently had been unsympa- thetic, are watching the struggle with more complacency. It is said they sose for actual control of Constantinopie ny the Moscow government in the event or Polands defeat and the realization or the pledges made by Russia early in the war.

 date and Other Issues
By Associated Pres,

Marion, O., July 1S.--A bill of par ticulars detailing the foreign policy now proposed by the democratic party was called for today by Warren C.. Harding, the republican nominee for President.
 In a broadside of pointed interroga- tories, the candidate challeged his democratic opponent. Governor Cox. to say categorically where he stood on Article 10. the Armenian mandate and other problems wrapped up in Ameri- can participation in the League of Nations
 Todays White House conference be- tween Governor Cox and President Wilson, said Harding, could not be fully explained by a statement of a American people not only would ask whether the democratic nominee had put MT. Wilson in charge of the cam paign and shouldered completely the administrations programme of for eign commitments, but would demand to be informed also just what those commitments are.
 Tt is earnestly to be hoped con- tinued the republican nominee. that Governor Cox will frankly and prompt = ly answer these questions, because the republican party wants the country to know it rejects all of these ill-con- sidered commitments and pledges it's administration against them"
 Senator Hardings statement was written while the conference at Wash : ington was in progress, and tonight he had nothing to add to it. In the circle of his close advisers. however, it was militantly declared he might have a great deal more to say unless his questions were answered.
 TEXT OF STATEMENT
 Senator Hardings statement follows in full
 "The President and the democratic nominee for his successor are in con- . ference today, and at the conclusion 1t will inevitably be announced that they found themselves in. complete accord, that harmony reigns and unity is es- tablished in the democratic party.
