Vancouver and North Yakima land districts in Washington.

By recent surveys, however, it was found that the crest of the Cascade Mountains placed the lands of some entrymen in two land districts and the boundary lines were changed to follow the lines of the public surveys, so that land covered by one entry would be in cluded in but one land district. 400 KILLED ON MINED SHIP Survivors From Russian , Vessel Til Black Sea Number About 150.

"One big bouquet of Portland's rarest and most gorgeous flowers and ar ranged in the most artistic of settings. is the way one enthusiastic admirer de scribed the new Martin & Forbes Co.'s Moral shop which was opened for busi ness yesterday morning at 354 Washington- street. . The windows and display space of the shop yesterday formed a bewitch ing array of roses, lilies of all kinds, Canterbury bells, forget-me-nots, car nations and the innumerable varieties of flowrs for which Portland is fa mous. The rich red of the carnations and the delicate tints of the rose petals and other flowers showed up In beau tiful contrast against the ivory-white walls, v A carved pedestal crowned by a great bouquet of the most delicate pink roses was a striking object in the Washington-street show window add great masses of ferns placed along the per gola down the center of the store were particularly attractive. However, it was not any Individual display, but, rather, the artistic com pleteness of the whole, which attract ed attention and gave James Forbes, member of the firm, basis for his ex pressed belief that the store is the most artistically arranged and complete in the Northwest, or, for that matter, any where. At an expense of several thousand dollars the new store has been fitted up in the most up-to-date manner.- Its two large show windows, one on Wash ington and the other on Park street, give opportunity for a fine display. The store drew many visitors yester day who crowded In to admire the in terior decorations and floral displays and to make purchases. People began coming from the time the doors were opened In the morning and the crowd continued all day. Martin & Forbes Co. are now round ing out their twenty-fifth year of busi ness in -Portland. They started In with a shop es.t 290 Washington street and about 10 years ago moved to 347 Wash ington, from which location they moved into their new shop yesterday morn ing. They now have two large green house plants and nurseries, which sup ply them with, most of the flowers and plants shown In their store, one lo cated near Forest Grove and the other on East Pine and Fiftieth streets, in Portland.

FORCES NEAR HUNGARY Czar's Troops Start Encircling Move - and Make Dash for Passes to tlie Carpathians tier many Sending Aid. FETROGRAD, via London. June The capture by the Russians of the town of liuty. In Galicla, across the Bukowina border at the foot of the Carpathian Mountains, was announced today by the War Office. he southern wing ot General Bru slloff's army has now pursued the retreating troops of General Pflanzer two-thirds of the way across the Aus trian crown lands of Bukowina and has occupied all the important towns of this province except Ivimpolung and Dorna Watra. In the direction of these towns the Russians have taken Gura Mumora and are now proceeding along the rail way line running through Bukowina into Hungary. The only alternative apparently left to the remnant of General Pflanzer's forces which still cling to Bukowina is to follow their comrades into the Carpathian foothills. The Russians, fol lowing up their successes west of -Czer-nowitz, have considerably deepened-the breach made- in the Austrian line at that point and from Kuty are bringing pressure from a third direction on Kolomea. - Thus, while the Austrians are still maintaining their positions in the Lutsk, region and until now have suc cessfully defended the approaches to Lemberg, the encircling movement Jn Eastern Galicla and Bukowina, military observers point out,' Is dally assuming greater dimensions. This, however, can not be developed indefinitely without reference to the operations at Lutsk. According to all reports, the Germans are bringing up at this point a con tinuous stream of reinforcements and the Issue in the struggle In this sector still is In doubt. The Russians are overrunning Buko wina and are making a dash for the passes to the Carpathians, as they did 18 months ago, when they reached Klrlibaba Pass, overlooking Austrian Transylvania. A report from Bucharest states that the Russians have taken possession of two railways leading from Aoumanla into Bukowina. ( The information that the Germans and Austrians are bringing reinforce ments up from the French and Italian fronts also is given. According to speculation In Paris, the tornado of artillery fire on the Verdun sector and the attacks in Champagne are supposed to mask the transfer of troops from this front to the Russian front. By means of forcedmarchee along the Roumanian frontl r, the Russians have reached the extreme south of Bukowina and at Kuty on the north and Gura Humora on the south have approached the thickly forested spurs of the Carpathian Mountains. A good road about 100 miles long runs tnrougn narrow valleys from Gura Humora by way of KImpolung and Dorna watra to Blstrlts, Hungary, offering the Rus sian guerrillas an excellent opening Into their enemy's country. The Russians in their pursuit of the Austrians thus far have crossed four rivers the Dnelster. Pruth. Sereth and Sucsava. Two days sufficed to cover the IS miles between the sereth and Sucsava. The objective of the Russians was Radautz, where the Austrians were ex pected to offer stubborn resistance, but It appears that the Austrians failed to make any serious stand here. Radauts is only five miles southwest of the im portant railway Junction of Hadikfalva, close to the Koumaniad frontier. Vir tually the entire railway system of Bukowina now is In possession ot the Russians. - FOE KEPCIiSED, SATS VIENNA Austrians Iteport Encircling Move Which Presses Back itnssians. VIENNA, via London.
