Less Whisky Is Sold;
Still Less TO Be,
He Says.

NEW YORK, August 3.-Whisky
will be one. of the hardest things in
the world to buy before another
month elapses, according to John F..
Kramer. United States commissioner
of prohibition. who arrived here to-
day from Washington, personally to
discover il liquor can be bought here
as easily as reported.
Mr. Kramer said he based his pre-
diction chiefly on orders issued to the
local office to refuse all permits to
wholesale dealers in liquor.
TT is generally known that a good
deal of liquor is still being retailed
in New York city," he said. but there
is not as much being sold at present
as there has been in recent weeks, ac-
cording to my best information. and
there will be far less sold in a very
short time.
Mr.. Kramer said while having or
dered permits refused to wholesalers,
"the chief, source from which the il
legal liquor traffic is being carried
on" was also working to insure hos
pitals, the medical profession and
druggists against any possible short
age.

Fall of BreSt-Lit0vsk FertS
Leaves Eastern Roadway to
Warsaw Virtually Clear

WARSAW, August (by the Asso-
ciated Press) ).-Brest -Litovsk, the last
great fortress guarding Warsaw from
the east. has apparently fallen before
a tremendous assault by the Russian
bolsheviki. North of that place. So
Wet forces have smashed their way for
ward in their drive westward to a poin,
only sixty miles east of this city.
Over a front of 120 miles. Polish
armies are being pounded to pieces
before the rush of bolshevik hordes
which are being hurled into the battle
in a desperate attempt to capture
Warsaw before the conclusion of the
armistice conference at hobryn. Re-
inforcementS are everywhere being
hurried to the front to complete the
defeat of the Poles before hostilities are
halted.
An official statement issued late last
night showed the soviet armies had
reached line only sixty miles from
this city. with which it is connected
by an excellent automobile highway.
II is officially admitted the Russians
have reached Mielnika. northeast OF
Brest-Litovsk. Near Brody the bolshe-
wiki have rushed reinforcements into
the line, and it is expected terrific
attack will be launched there for the
purpose of capturing Lemberg before
an armistice is declared.
On the northern sector soviet troops
nave advanced ana nave redCneQ Tue
region of Ostrolensk. which is but
siXty-six miles from Warsaw. Cavalry
regiments form the extreme tip of the
right wing of the advancing bolshe-
vik line. and here, too, fresh forces
are being brought up.
WARSAW, August News OF the
progress of armistice negotiations be
tween Polish and Russian bolshevik
representatives was awaited i'm
patiently by Warsaw today, but at
o'clock this evening officials said no
reports had been received.
Word was passed around Americans
here, upon advice from Washington.
that those desiring to remain in War
saw. should it appear the bolshevski
would take the capital, would do so
at their own risk. 1t was said the
American authorities would request
their passports. which will be return
ed afterward if individuals requested
them.
Applications for passport vises by
persons wishing to leave Warsaw
have more than doubled at the Amer
ican consulate since the beginning of
the soviet offensive. Most of the ap-
plicants are women and children who
have friends in America. Crowds
jammed the streets near the consulate
on Sunday. and extra gendarmes were
stationed there to maintain order and
to divert traffic to other streets.
