LONDON, Nov. 20. The great battle
In West Poland is In full progress, ac
J cording to late Berlin dispatches. Of-
ticial reports say that no decision has
J yet been reached, but otherwise no den
2 nite details are known there of this
I titanic struggle, which far overshadows
i the conflict on the west front.
S "The engagements previously report
s' rd eastward of the Mazurian Lakes at
t Eoldau, Pipno, Wloclawek and Cracow,"
j Bays the dispatch, "seem to have been
i merely preliminaries to a general en
j: pagement along the whole line. The
. German bulletin mentions fighting
northward of Lodz, while the Austrians
"report the advance of their army north
jj ward- f rbm Cracow, and it is evident
f that the allies and the Russians are
L engaged in the center along a north
C and south line. Mence It seems that
the Teutonic allies are levelling a con
t centric attack from three directions
against the Russian force.
InvHNlon Ilrlieved Hopeless.
I "How the struggle is progressing is
utterly unknown here. The newspaper
S critics interpret conditions as genef-
r ally favorable tn the Austro-Oermans
and assert that the German advance
g beyond Mlawa and the vicinity of Plook
,t ims eliminated aanger or an invasion
of East and West Prussia except by
such cavalry forces as are operating
5 northward of Eydtkuhnen, in East
' Prussia, on the Russian border. These,
however, are only raiders.
"Major Moraht, the military critic of
the Tageblatt, declares that General
y liinuenburg's advance south of the Vis-
tula has exercised effective pressure on
the whole Russian right wing and de
ll fleeted it southward from its natural
g line of retreat on Warsaw. The chief
J fighting is now proceeding to the
Dun uica.li. auu (-.is u ij i xvuiiio, ueiweea
Lodz and Lowicz, on the Bezura River.
The situation. Major Moraht says, gives
the Germans ground for hone of com.
plete success, particularly since strong
.. Russian forces operating north of the
Vistula against the line from Thorn to
, Mlawa have been driven back against
p the line of the River Bug.
. Austrian Troops Commended.
j "Major Moraht gives full credit to
J. the co-operation of the Austrian armies,
; which by their offensive from Cracow,
' have drawn upon themselves strontr
Russian forces and have prevented their
detachment against the Germans in the
north. The Austrians, he says, in a
self-sacrificing policy, have throughout
played the game conscientiously and
subordinated their own particular in-
teresta for those of the general cam-
paign.
j "Emperor William has telegraphed
ji General von Hindenburg the imperial
v; thanks for the victory of great prom
t lse in the first operations of the bat

The shaded portion Represents the territory the Germans now hold
so far as can be deduced from their claims and the French admissions.
West of Dixmude the Germans still have a foothold over the Yser
River, which is canalized from the sea to the point where the canal
breaks off to go to Ypres. South of Dixmude again they have made a
way across and hold it. Otherwise the allies hold the line of the
canai( on which they constructed their defenses after the fall of Ant
werp and after the French and British had formed a junction with the
retreating Belgians.
Towns which have been centers of severe fighting are underscored.
After flooding out the Germans between Nieuport and Dixmude, the
Belgians advanced to- Lombaertzyde, but the Germans say they have
been driven back across the Yser. The other villages around Ypres
have been taken and-retaken many times in the efforts of the Ger
mans to drive the allies out of that town.

PARIS. Nov. 19. The oflicial com

Office tonight says:
The day has been particularly calm.
There is nothing to report."
Th.e earlier official report said:
"On the north yesterday was marked
by a renewal of activity on the part of
the enemy's artillery, particularly be
tween the seacoast and the Lys. There
were no infantry attacks in this region.
"Between the Oise and the Aisne the
operations in the vicinity of Tracy-le-Val
had a termination favorable for
our troops. It will be remembered that
we took possession of this village sev
eral days ago. The day before yester
day the Germans endeavored to recap
ture it. After having captured our
first trenches they succeeded in making
their way as far as the central square
of the village. Here, however, a vigor

Algerian contingents drove tho enemy
back, wrested from him all the ground
we had lost and inflicted on him heavv

prospects. Several prospectors already
have left Fairbanks for the district.

fenders bolted from the position and
were caught by the tire of our machine
guns as they retired, losing about half
of their number.
"On our right all was quiet. The
weather on this day was about the
worst we have yet experienced. It was
bitter cold and rain fell in torrents.
Nevertheless, In spite of all difficulties
our aviators carried out a successful
reconnaissarice. For some time they
noverea over tne uerman lines, observ
ing the emplacements of the batteries
and searching the roads for hostile
columns, in the midst of a storm of
driving show and sleet which was en
countered at high altitude.
German Spies Resourceful.
"Further information has recentlv
come to hand regarding the enemy's
memoa oi sniping and spying. Non
commissioned officers receive iron
crosses ir they penetrate our lines, at
night. Those who attemnt thin work-
having discarded boots, helmets and
other impediments, crawl as close as
possible to our defenses and try to
"uraui tne attention or one or our sen
tries by throwing a stone In a direc
tion contrary to that In which they are
crawling. This generally causes neigh
boring sentries to fire, thus disclosing
their positions and that of our lines of
trenches.
"These spies, or snipers, often wear
khaki uniforms and woolen caps, simi
lar to those worn by our men, and thus
disguised sometimes succeed in getting
right behind our lines to favorable
spots, from which they shoot men pass
ing to and fro. Many of them speak
English well and display great inge
nuity and effrontery in getting out of
tight corners.

Much in Evidence When
Bullets Are Flying. .

Division of Good Things
From Home Common.
BERLIN, Nov. 4. (Correspondence of
the' Associated Press.) The German
army is a very human institution Just
now. The iron discipline of the bar
racks and the caste spirit which divides
the officer from the rank and file are
not so much in evidence.
In one of the better restaurants of
Berlin sat two. officers of the line.
The worn look of the field-gray uni
form of one showed that he had seen
service. That the other had been at
the front was made clear by a bandage
over his head.
Following ' an animated recital the
officer in the worn uniform picked
up a bundle which had lain beside him
on the table and proceeded to unwrap
six mouth organs.
Trenches to Have Music.
"You see," he said to his convalescent
companion, "life in the trenches and
there will be much of it, I fear is
rather slow. There are several men in
my company who can play these things
and I am taking these . back to them.
A little music help them pass the time
and keeps them in good humor."
"I gave my captain five boiled po
tatoes and the half of a salt herring
the other day and he told me he ap
preciated it," said a private when asked
to explain to what extent life In the
barracks resembled life in the firing
line.
To the remark that hunger comes to
all men regardless of station in life.
the private commented: .
"That is so, of course. But the of
ficer did not have to thank me for it."
Duty Is for All Alike.
It would have served no purpose to
argue this point with the man, so an
other question was asked.
"This is the time when everybody
must do his duty," replied the man.
and then added slowly and with em
phasis, "and that duty right now seems
to be the same for all alike- every
body within his place, of course. The
officer is as. likely to be shot as we
are, and sometimes more fo, and that,
I believe, evens things up consider
ably." "A sort of democracy of death," sug
gested the interviewer.
But the word "democracy" is In Ger
many principally associated with the
"Social Democrats" the German So
cialist party. For that reason the pri
vate had nothing more to say.
Soldiers Keep Silence.
It is as difficult to interview a Gor
man private aa it is to get information
from one of the few officers who in
habit the large rambling General Staff
building, across from the Reichstag
building. It seems to' be as much the
duty of the soldier, to be silent as to
fight.
There is no doubt that the German
army in the field is a more liberal in
stitution than the German army in the
barracks. One reads almost daily of
men carrying their officers to the
dressing station behind the trench or
firing line, and of officers who, after
the fighting is over, make frantic effort
to succor their wounded men. Letters
which speak of officers dividing their
parcels from home with their men have
ceased to be a novelty.
Privates 'Win Honors. "
On th whole it is a rare thing for
a German private to get the iron cross
of the second and first classes together.
So far there are three cases: Infant
rist Maurer Silber. of Querfurth; Re
serve Corporal Carl Frank, of Sinsheim,
and Infantrist Henry Mueller, of
Geestemuende. the latter also earning
the promotion to sergeant.
Mueller serves with a machine-gun
section. In a recent engagement the
crew of the section was shot down,
Mueller alone escaping. Instead of
seeking cover Mueller carried his
wounded corporal into a safe place be
hind the firing line, and then returned
to the machine gun, which he began to
work with such efficiency that within a
few moments he had killed and wound
ed nearly all the men in two of the
enemy's trenches.
DEATH SACRIFICE MADE UP
Late Kansas Postmaster's Supposed
Shortage Proves Error.
SCAMMON. Kan., Nov. 19. Last
Winter Thomas B. Evans, late post
master of Scammon. found that his
books showed him indebted to the Gov
ernment for nearly $1000. Worry over
the discovery made him ill and is said
to have caused his death. He blamed
himself for the discrepancy In his
books, not being an accountant.
Evans, saying nothing to his family,
began making up the shortage and
at the time of his death, had done
so. He died believing ne owed the
Government the money.
Auditors of the Postoff ice Depart
ment, checking through the books, dis
covered an error and found that Evans
did not owe the Government anything.
Mrs. Evans today received "a check for
$902.81 from the department, the
amount Evans .made sacrifices to pay.
RUSSIA ASKS FOR GOODS
Contlnued From First Pag-e.)
great interest the proposals of the
United States. Until these are made
our attitude cannot be more than one
of friendly receptivity. Meanwhile,
however, there is no reason why Amer
ican exports o Russia should not be
increased without waiting for the treaty
to crystalize. It will come eventually,
we hope, but it is not now essential as
a basis for trading. Without the for
mal signing of a treaty, we are willing
to offer every reasonable Inducement
and encouragement to American mer
chants. The American exports to this
port could be Increased ten-fold. If
the magnitude of the present oppor
unity was realized in America there
would be no hesitation."
It is pretty well agreed In Russia
that whatever the results of the war,
the German monopoly of commercial
and technical activity is ended, and at
the same time it is realized that Rus
sia herself is incapable of furnishing
the agricultural machinery and equip
ment for one-sixth of the habitable
globe.
Russian business men argue that
France is partly agricultural and bank-
ihg people, that England produces a
high grade of articles which Russia
does not require and that England i
too conservative to adapt herself to
new or unusual ' requirements. Thus
by a process of elimination the con
sensus of opinion is that America is
the country which must step into the
breach left by the Germans. This con
clusion is further strengthened by the
analogy between America and Ru3sia
in territory and variety of climate.
That is to say, the kind of machinery
required by conditions In America is
similar to that needed by Russia.
America is in addition an Industrial
country. These arguments and In
ferences lead Russian business men at
present to look eagerly to America.
This agitation has not been without
results. Recently a Russian American
company has been organized in Petro
grad to stimulate commerce between
the two countries, and from America
there has come a list of articles which
could be supplied. These tally exactly
with the articles of which Russia Is in
Immediate need. .

DISSECTORS ARE ACCUSED
Many in New York Declared Unable
to Save Dead Relatives.
NEW YORK, Nov. 19. Relatives of
hundreds of persons who die in Belle
vue and Harlem hospitals are unable
to save the bodies of their dead from
the dissecting table, according to evi
dence given today in an inquiry look
ing to 'he abolition of the. office of
Coroner.
Dr. Timothy Lehane. a Coroner's
physician, testified that he performed
thousands of autopsies and that when
there is a scarcity of bodies .for dis
secting purposes in the two- Hospitals,
it is not uncommon for members of
the staffs to send for relatives of the
dead, and threaten to notify the Coroner
if the ijodies are not surrendered for
autopsy purposes.
"I have . met in the anterooms of
these two institutions hundreds of
weeping relatives who were powerless
to sjxve .their dead from the dissect
ing table," Dr. Lehane said.
WASHINGTON HAS NO WORD

of messages explaining . in detail just
what occurred.
When tonight's conference ended,
both Secretary Daniels and Mr. Lansing
said no further ' Inquiries had been
directed to the American cruisers or the
American Ambassador at Constanti
nople, the talk being largely a detailed
review of previous messages covering
the general situation in Turkey anI
Asia Minor.
Waters Believed Mined.
Secretary Daniels summed up his
view of the incident by declaring he
believed detailed reports would show
that the firing was intended as a
friendly warning to prevent the launch
from entering mined waters.
"I believe that when Captain Decker's
report is received it will prove that the
firing was a friendly, and not an un
friendly act," said the Secretary.
"Reports that the waters of the
Smyrna harbor are mined indicate
that the shots were fired to warn the
vessels against the danger of mines
which, it might have come into con
tact with had it entered the harbor."
Another explanation advanced by Mr.
Daniels was' that the port had been
officially closed and that the approach
of the vessel caused the guns of the
forts to sound warning to prevent it
from trespassing.
Tennessee Now In Aegean Sea.
The Tennessee today was at Sclo
(Chios) in the Aegean Sea, from where
Captain Decker cabled his brief re
port. Owing to slow communication,
it was believed possible a day or two
may elapse before he could cable addi
tional details and Ambassador Morgen
thau's report on his Inquiry of the
Constantinople government.
Protection and friendship for Amer
ican citizens in Turkey frequently
have been pledged by the Porte, but
since that time the United States has
assumed charge of diplomatic inter
ests of the allies with whom Turkey
now is at war, resulting in conditions
marked by delicate responsibilities.
Activities by some Mohammedan lead
ers caused apprehension on the part of
Americans as well as French and
British subjects, and that was reported
by the United States Consul at
Smyrna to Ambassador Morgenthau.
Consulate Thought Sate.
When an investigation of conditions
at the Consulate was determined on,
the Tennessee stood off at Vourlah and
sent a launch on' the way to Smyrna.
Under Navy regulations, it was said.
Captain Decker would have been Jus
tified In attempting to enter the har
bor to inquire into affairs at the con
sulate, regardless of whether Smyrna
port was closed.
Apparently, however, he did not con
tinue on his way to Smyrna, but be
lief was expressed that If the consul
ate had been in imminent danger the
Tennessee would not have left the vi
cinity. An outstanding effect of the
incident, It was believed here, would
be to impress upon the Ottoman au
thorities the anxiety felt for the safety
of Americans in Turkey.
