VLADIVOSTOK. July 15. (By the Associated Press.) Of the 14,000 Czechs who reached Vladivostok. 12.000 are en gaged in active military operations at Khabarovsk. The Czechs today occupied Spasskai after overcoming: stubborn resistance. Forty thousand Czecho-Slovaks hold the Trans-Siberian Railroad between Samara and Irkutsk, detachments oc cupying Tcheliabinsk, Omsk, Novo Ivikolievsk. Tomsk and Krasnoarsk. The Czecho-Slovak National Council at Vladivostok assumes that the Czechs, co-operating with local bodies, have overthrown the Bolshevlkl in the above-named places, but details are not available. It Is presumed that the Czechs are moving- toward Irkutsk, as their rear is surrounded. Prisoners Join Red Guard. It Is estimated that 600.000 war pris oners are distributed throughout Sibe ria, of whom 35. 000 have voluntarily joined the Red Guards or became en gaged In German political propaganda. The Czechs do not support the self styled Siberian government, and do not take offers of assistance from anti Bolshevikl factions.

The enemy forces between Nikolsk and Irkutsk, consisting of 1:1,000 Ger man Magyars and 25.000 Bolsheviki. are probably concentrated in the re gion of Lake Baikal and Chita. The attitude of the Czechs toward the Siberian government is that of a friendly neutral, but they will oppose any threatened armed advance by Gen eral Horvath on Vladivostok, as an outbreak of civil war would menace their operations for relieving the Czechs in the interior.
