ARRESTS MAY START CLASH feeling of the deepest gratitude toward the liberty-loving people of the great trans-Atlantic republic for this new demonstration of human love and vital energy. "It Is true that the Yankees, who have heretofore been considered men of dollars, have given aid to Belgium and other nations In need, but the proposed help to Russia must be given special notice. "It is our deep conviction that the noble act of the free American people speaks for the great sympathising soul of the trans-Atlantic friend. JAFIOSLAV RUNS AFTER 12 DAY SIEGE lie ported Action Toward Diplomats at Moscow Possible Cause for t Dispatching Belief Mill t tary Expedition. WASHINGTON. Aug. 10. (Special.) The Amerl- - and the allied govern ments, it was learned here today, have no Intention ol taking any action with reference to the declaration of the Bol hevikl Foreign Minister to the allied councils at Moscow that Russia was in a state of defense against the -allied powers on account of the landing military forces in the north of Russii The State Department has not re eeived confirmation of the reported r rest of the allied representatives at Moscow. Establishment of such an act on the part of the Bolshevik!, however. might create a ry seric us situation resulting eventually in the dispatch a military expedition to their relief, although the combined Csecho-Slovak and anti-Bolsheviki Rcssian troops i ' Siberia might constitute a force suf nclent for such an enterprise. War Slove Lacks C'onnrmatloau Confirmation also is lacking of th rumored declaration of war by the Bol shevtkl government jainst Japan. Such a declaration on the part of the Lentne Trotsky regime. It was believed here, might prove good politics for the Bol heviki, at least as it would enable the Soviet authorities t play upon the prejudices of the Russian masses cgainst the Japanese. The Bolshevik! would be able, also, to make a very clear distinction be tween the action of the Japanese in ' Siberia and that of the allies in th - northern provinces, holding that th Japanese expedition constituted an in vasion of Russia, while that of the al . lies and the United States in Northern Russia followed revolutionary move ments on the part of the Russian In habitants, who Invited the allies to ' give them protection and assist them. The fact that no mention was made in the report connecting the United States with Japan in the predicted or actualdeclaration of hostilities against Japan was taken here to mean that the vBolsheviki recognized that their cause would not be benefited by de claring war upon the United States, but injured, as the Russians would not be willing to enter into a conflict with America, the Nation most respected and loved by Russians. Officials here pointed out today that it was not unusual for the Bolshevlki to dojllogical things, such as omission or America from inclusion among Bus la's enemies in the event of a declara tion of war against Japan. The Bolshevikl, It was stated in Rus alan circles, in very few Instances have observed the law of nations or the comity internationally practiced, pur . auing, rather, a coarse and practice peculiar to themselves, without any re gard whatever lor established conven tions. IMfflewlty for Soviet Created. The Impression prevails here that the conduct of Ambassador Francis in Rus sia and the declaration to and con cerning Russia by President Wilson, while they have not wholly disarmed the Bolshevikl in their animosity toward every country and every person not favoring them, have at least had the effect of making it difficult for the Moscow officials to create an antl American sentiment in Russia, such as they maintained towards England, France and Japan. News of the arrival of the interna tional, expeditionary forces in Siberia Is momentarily expected here, but there is doubt whether it will precede or fol low the clearance by Japanese, and possibly American troops also, of the Amur branch of the Siberian railroad which at the points west of Nikolskai is controlled by German-Magyar Bol shevik soldiers. Information has reached here that Csecho-Slovak troops. 15,000 strong, which recently took control of Vladi vostok, have left that city and are moving westward toward European Russia, according to official reports re ceived by the Csecho-Slovak national council and made pubio today.

Vladivostok is now controlled by the suned rorces landed there. The committee on public information has received from its representative at Harbin a cable containing an extract from the Vechernaya Gasetta. evidenc ing the interest and expectancy with which all American preparations to help Russia are being watched. The Gazeta says: "In recent telegrams of the American Bureau of Public Information the good news appears that the United States has determined to aid Russia with food supplies. Starvation awaits Russia, who, before the war, supplied wheat to the western countries, and with whom America once competed in the wheat market. Deep Gratitude Expressed.

The streetcar cannot be moved from Its location for fear that the house will fall down, and until braces are placed no attempt to move It will be made for the time being.

The front wheels of the car struck the piano and rested there. GERALD CUDAHY IN ARMY Alleged Relative of Chicago Packer Says He Was on Way to Enlist. CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, Wash., Aug. 10.

Cal., could not locate him. He said he was en route to Camp Lewis to enlist when arrested, but his arrival was delayed by illness in Tacoma. Cudahy owns a ranch, he said, in Mexico, near Cal exlco. Because of his willingness to enter military service the charges against him were dropped. LONDON, Aug. 10. The story of the tragic fate of the Russian city of Jaro Slav is transmitted to the Frankfurter Zeitung. Jaroslav, famous for its splendid churches and monasteries, was almost completely destroyed after a siege of 12 days by the Bolshevikl, and thou sands are homeless. The counter revolutionaries planned a simultaneous rising at Jaroslav, Mos cow and other cities for July 6.

They seized the arsenals, several armored cars and river steamers. Red Guards. Reinforced, Attack. The surprised Red Guard tr6ops were driven out of the city. They entrenched themselves in the vicinity and after re celving reinforcements from Moscow, occupied commanding positions and be gan shelling the city. Fires broke out in different parts of the town and most of the public build ings were demolished. Both sides fought with extreme ferocity, no quar ter being given. For ten days there was no drinking water in Jaroslav as the pumping eta tion had been destroyed by shells and the river approaches were kept under heavy fire from the besiegers. In the meantime 1500 released Ger man prisoners, who were about to' be repatriated, were summoned by the in surgents to Join them. German Prisoners Killed. They refused, whereupon they were again taken prisoner and several were killed or wounded by shot or shell. The rest were refused food. When the situation became desperate the revolutionaries surrendered to the Germans. A German Lieutenant as sumed control of the city treasury, which contained 60,000,000 rubles. The besiegers entered the city and executed 850 of the Insurgents. CZECH LOSSES SEVERE NEED OF HEAVY REINFORCEMENTS IN SIBERIA INDICATED.

The forces the allies purpose sending to help the Czech-Slovaks in Siberia are pitifully inadequate and an attempt to accom plish the task with them would only be courting disaster, says the Daily Mail's correspondent at Vladivostok, tele graphing on '.uesday.
