Is Eye Witness of Battle
on Roumanian Front.

Accuracy of Russian Fire and Ef

teries Most Noticeable to
American Obserrer.
PETROGRAD, July 8. (Delayed.)
"The Russian army la going to fight.
The spirit among the troops everywhere
Is excellent. The advance so brilliantly
begun has every chance for successful
continuation." This was the reassur
ing comment on the Russian military
situation made bv Major-General Hugh
L. Scott, Chief of the General Staff of
the United States Army, on his return
tonight from a 10 days' tour along the
southwestern front into Roumanla,
General Scott described In detail and
with the greatest enthusiasm the Rus
sian advance of June 30. which he per
sonally observed at close range from
a point near Brzezany.
"Few observers." said General Scott,
'have had such opportunity of viewing
the active operations of an European
army since the war began. When we
arrived at Tarnopol the Russian artil
lery preparation had' been In progress
nearly 48 hours, but we were in time
to watch the brilliant climax.
Tremendous Bombardment Seen
"We Journeyed from Tarnopol to the
firing line in automobiles and. were
immediately escorted to the trenches.
A tremendous bombardment was in
progress and the Austrian lines were
being battered by a continuous torrent
of shells. The point that struck me
most forcibly was the accuracy of the
Russian fire and the effective conceal
ment of their batteries. The Austrian
artillery was good but noticeably
weaker.
"The precision and exquisite work
ing of the Russian machinery was a
marvel to me. Every man was in his
place, and there was not the slightest
sign of insubordination or reluctanoe
among the men. Each officer and sol
dier eagerly and unhesitatingly did
what he was told. The spirit of the
men themselves was in favor of an
advance.
Many Austrian Surrender.
"We spent the night at the head'
quarters of the Sixth Corps of the
Eleventh Army, but early in the morn'
ing of the next day we returned to the
trenches. Clambering out of the
trenches into a wheat field on the sum
mit of a ridge overlooking the Austrian
positions, we watched the end of the
battle.
"The artillery preparations ceased
suddenly, the ordr to advance was
given and the whole Russian line swept
. forward in perfect unison. I was some
what dismayed when, in a short time,
I saw thousands of men pouring back
again. But I soon discovered that
these men were Austrian prisoners,
who came -unnlng with all speed into
the Russian lines, apparently with
single thought that of surrendering
as quickly as possible.
"The Russian casualties were com
paratively slight, as It was possible
to Judge by the small number of am
bulance wagons which the Russians
sent forward."
Russians Will Go On Ft shtlnaj.
General Scott said that the spirit and
: discipline of the Russian troops dur
ing this engagement was merely i
sample of that which he found at other
points on the front. The spldiers were
ready to advance whenever called
upon and the morale of the army in
general was Infinitely better than he
had been led to believe In Petrograd.
"We can count on these people to
go on fighting." the General said in
conclusion.
After a stop at Czemowlti, the cap
ltal of Bukowina, the Scott party went
direct to Jassy. the seat of the Rou
manian erovernment, where a lunch
eon was given in their honor by the
King and Queen of Roumanla. who ex
pressed pleasure over America's en
- trance into the war. The King told
the General that Roumanla would de
rive fresh courage from an ally who
had the reputation of finishing what
It undertook. The party was received
formally by members of the Roumanian
government and General Scott delivered
an address before tne Roumanian rr
liament.
Except for a few informal confer
ences with the members of the Rus
sian government, the work here of the
Root commission virtually has been
concluded.

KINGMAN, Ariz.. July 9. County au
thorities expressed the belief tonight
that the strike situation in Mohave
County had passed the critical stage.
Sheriff J. N. Cohenour said he believed
the 60 deputies distributed among the
various camps would be able to pre
vent a renewal of the alleged attempt
to cause a strike of the thousand or
more miners employed in the county,
which was said to have resulted in the
trouble last Saturday at Golconda,
which culminated in the closing down
of the Union Basin mine and the de
parture from the camp of 15 men said
to be Industrial Workers of the World
organizers.
The men were sought on warrants
charging unlawful assemblage and at
tempts to Interfere with mining opera
tions, but up to night none ox the 15
had been apprehended.
Mine to Remain Closed.
The Union Basin mine, ordered shut
down by the management following
walkout of pumpmen Saturday night
because they did not want to be called
"scabs." will remain closed until the
strikers' places are filled and probably
until the present strike troubles are
over, it was announced.
Miners at Chloride, Ariz., it waa an

held last night to reject strike pro

of the International Union of Mine,

PRUSSIAXISM IS SORE BESET
Anything May Come Out of Melee
Now Stirring Germany.
BY ARTHUR S. DRAPER.
LONDON. July 9. (Special.) Almost
anything may come out of the political
melee now stirring Germany, Dut wnat
ever happens it is certain that Prus
slanism, harassed on all sides, faces
speedy destruction.
The Social and Liberal rorces nave
been gaining strength for a blow at
Prusstanism, and every advance which
they make means an Important step
towards peace.
Those who see the disruption and
collapse of Germany are likely to be
badly disappointed. The old system
which made war is now being forced
to give ground, but there will remain
a united people so long as they feel
that they are fighting a life-and-death
struggle.
The crisis precipitated by Matthias
Brzberger, leader of the Catholic Cen
ter party, which, next to the Social-
Democracy, Is the strongest political
organization in all Germany, has been
developing with remarkable rapidity
during the last four montha Brzberger
is a brilliant speaker and writer and.
as the political head of Germany's 25,
000,000 Catholics, he commands great
power and respect in the Reichstag.
Although the present move Is prl
marily Brzberger's own initiative, he
has the support of all except three of

GLOBE, Ariz.. July 9. Categorical
denials were made today by the repre

has produced the present crisis, which
is rather the result of a combination
of events. With Prusslanlsm assailed
on every side, the Austrian . Emperor
is exerting pressure for peace and the
German Socialist and Center party are
demanding a non-annexation, no-in
demnity declaration, as well as drastic
parliamentary reforms. The Junkers
are fighting both and attacking the
Chancellor on the ground that he is
too liberal. Undoubtedly the present
combination for the Immediate new
orientation has crowded the govern
ment to the wall, with no escape save
concession or compromise.
This means more than the temporary
humiliation of Prussianism. It means
that their future course will be guided
by popular opinion and that the power
of leadership has been greatly weak
ened. JTrom a pacifist viewpoint, tn-
German developments are exceedingly
heartening, although even the pacifists
ocasider it unwise to Interpret them as
any collapse on the part of Germany.
Primarily, it is a domestic affair, which
can easily grow into an international
question ot the first importance.
