forcements were reported advancing
and the allied forces were under a hall
of shrapnel shells and "pom-poms."

Bolshevik gunboat and a land battery
would strike.
The allies have been handicapped by
a fall of the water, which left boats
stuck on sand bars and barred prog
ress by gunboats at critical times.

trying to drive the Russian and allied
troops from the Dvina before Ice closes
the river.
The troops opposing the allies In this

mercenaries.

miles of territory, the enemy has been
able to move troops from Petrograd.

the report in the Handelsblad, of
Amsterdam, that German ubmarines
had been ordered by wireless to re
turn at once to their bases, the York
shire Post says:
"If the Handelsblad story is as In
nocent as It seems, it is a damaging
story of German mitigation of 'fright
fulness.' If the German government
can wireless to all its submarines, it
could have prevented the outrage on
the Leinster by telegraphing to all
U-boat commanders that atrocities
must not be committed.
"Outrages have been excused In Ger
many on the ground that It is Impos
sible to communicate with U-boats by
wireless telegraphy. But If the gov
ernment can recall the U-boats by
wireless telegraphy they could have
modified the ferocity without waiting
for President Wilson."
