awaited impatiently by Warsaw but at
clock tonight no reports had been re-
ceived Meantime with news from the

that those desiring TO remain IN Warsaw

risk. Indications arc that few Americans
will remain, as applications for passport
vises have more than doubled at &c
American consulate since the beginning OF
the Soviet offensive. Ii Is SAID that 1000
vises are passed upon each week.
Many of these had previously planned
to cross the Atlantic but the recent Boil
shevik activity has had a tendency to in
crease their desire to depart.
Crowds jammed the streets near the
consulate on Sunday and extra gendaTmes
were stationed there To maintain order
and 10 divert traffic to other streets.
Lines OF applicants during the last few
DAYS have extended around the entire
block in ono direction and nearly around

As war measure the military authorl-
ties have prohibited the sale of alcoholic
