London, July 16-Russian dis
patches today to the London Times
state that the Russian soviet govern
ment has decided to accept the British
proposal for an armistice between
Russian and Polish forces, and has
suggested a conference at Brest-Lit-

RES0LUTE AGAIN
ENTERS CUP RACE

New York, July Resolute, the
yacht defending Americas cup against
Sir Thomas Lipton's challenger, will
enter the second heat against Sham
rock " tomorrow, it was announced
by the New York Yacht CluD. An
accident to Resolute's rigging in the
first heat yesterday, when the de-
fender was fully five minutes ahead
of Shamrock, put the American sloop
out of the running and allowed Lip
ton for the first time since 1851 to win
even one heat against an American
yacht.
AS the race now stands, Shamrock
must win two more heats to capture
the pewter cup emblerlatic Of sea su-
premacy, while Resolute must be the
winner in three of four heats. New
York Yacht Club flag officers, owners
spf the defender, believe Resolute can
be outfitted hurriedly for more sail
ing and easily foot it away from
Shamrock in the remaining heats.

Peace or chaos in the railroad world
