forces which have been attacking the
Poles northeast of Warsaw for the
purpose of cutting communications be
tween that city and Danzig seem to
have been checked for the time being
by the desperate defense of the
Polish armies. Dispatches received here
appear to indicate an improvement in
the military situation in that sector
of the front
Observers are inclined, however, TO
look on the fighting near Brest-Li-
tovsk, east of Warsaw with some con-
Germ, as the bolsheviki have masscd
large forces in an effort to break
through there. 1t is felt that the out
come of the battle now being waged
in that region may decide the fate of
Poland.
1t is possible the apparent slowing
of the soviet attack in the north may
be due, however, to difficulties encoun-
tered in bringing food, munitions and
reinforcements to the front over coun-

General Escapes,
Troops Capture Wife

MEXICO CITY Mex, Dec. IL
Mexican troops sent after General RI
cardo Morelos, who is at the head of
"a rebellion in Vera Cruz, have been
unable to force him into an engagement,
but have overtaken and captured the
rebels wife, according to reports reach
ing the capital. Sonora Morelos, 1t is
said, was captured near the town OF
Teocelo.
1t is supposed that she was on her
way to the camp of General Morelos,
but search of the surrounding country
failed to reveal the camping place. This
led to the belief that word of the ap-
proach of the Federal troops and the
capture of Sonora Morelos reached the
rebel general. causing him to flee to the
mountains.
The fact that he still manages to k@e@
up his revolt" discredits recent reports
that assertions had so depleted his forcs
that he was left practically alone.
Morelos is the general who financed Ass
uprising by robbing an army payma stsa
of money sent to pay Federal troopA
